Hello,
I just bought a brand new N3DS XL for a VERY reduced price... only problem is that the previous owner tried to firmware mod it right out of the box and screwed up somehow. I don't have any info as of what he did but I believe it was a hardmod as I've already opened the DS and saw evidence of soldering on the motherboard.
As of right now the 3DS only shows a blue error in the lower screen with this text>
BOOTROM 8046
ERRCODE: 00F800FE
00000000 00000000
00000400 00000000
Is there any way I can restore this thing to a usable status? I don't mind losing the ability of online gaming if I have to do something that may get me banned from nintendo's network.
Any gurus in here that may shed some light on how to unbrick this? Any first steps I should take like dumping rom backups or anything?
