Hi I'm typing this because I need help with this and I'm trying a lot of things so here it goes
My New 3DS XL with all the recent updates like Luma V.12 and everything from the 3ds.hacks guide is working fine one of these days playing games normally and whatnot but here's the weird part. One of these days when I turned it off normally and I came back to it after a while (In a while like 2 hours) I turned it on and my 3DS is a black screen with the blue light for a very long time. So I followed the troubleshooting guide and nothing seems to work to get it fixed but it boots up normally when the SD card is out.
I don't think it's the SD card port on the 3ds being messed up too also When I tried to boot it up without the SD card in GOD MODE v.9 and Remount the SD Card it freezes GODMODE which is very weird
The SD card works fine but the only thing that I haven't tried yet is this
There's also the boot it up in recovery mode but I can't really do that if my 3ds doesn't boot up in the first place
I have a backup of my games and saves and the files on my pc when I did it but I need to figure out why is it not booting up normally even though it was fine before.
It's bothering me heavily so I made an account on GBAtemp because you guys seem knowledgeable on these things.
No rush on the replies but I'll respond to anything if I'm able to
and apologies if this sounds all rushed this is pretty much as specific as possible.
I'm just tired of trying pretty much everything and I just want to game on my 3DS.
EDIT: I'm new here so I'm going to browse the other threads to see if I can get more info and stuff

- Rename the Nintendo 3DS folder on your SD card to Nintendo 3DS_BACKUP, then attempt to boot. If your device successfully boots, there is some issue within your Nintendo 3DS folder. Try clearing HOME Menu extdata:
- Navigate to /Nintendo 3DS/<ID0>/<ID1>/extdata/00000000/ + Delete the corresponding folder for your 3DS region:
- EUR Region: 00000098
- JPN Region: 00000082
- USA Region: 0000008f
- CHN Region: 000000A1
- KOR Region: 000000A9
- TWN Region: 000000B1
