I’ve looked at many threads and had no luck, maybe someone can find the error in my ways?
I have an R4i Plus, the one that comes with an internal ntrboot Switch. I have installed CFW on many 3DS systems, but it has been awhile and for some reason booting to ntrboot is not working this time. I am using a New 2DS XL, brand new out of the box a day ago. The switch on the inside of the R4 is on the N for ntrboot. I have boot.3dsx and the renamed boot.firm that was safeb9sinstaller.firm on the root of my sd card. I have a folder named boot9strap on the root of my SD card with the boot9strap.firm and boot9strap.firm.sha in there.
So here’s the problem: I have a very good magnet I have used before. I turn off my system and put the magnet over the sleep trigger on the bottom of my 2DS XL. My flashcart with the ntrboot mode is inserted and so is my device’s SD card. There is no card in my R4 but I have been told I don’t need one. I hold the X, start, select, and power buttons, the blue power light turns on, and the screen is lit but only to black. It doesn’t matter when I let go of the buttons or if I even do so, the following happens the same every time. The yellow wireless light turns on after a second or two, and the console’s screens completely turn off as if it were in sleep mode shortly after that. I assume that if the yellow light turns on it had failed, because no matter how long I hold or don’t hold the buttons, removing the magnet flicks off the sleep trigger and the console is at the home screen. I have been doing this for hours, and have tried multiple console SD cards, one 4gb and one 64gb, both formatted to FAT32.
I have no idea what I am doing wrong and why it isn’t working this time. I have checked many threads and have found no luck. If anyone can help me that would be much appreciated
