Check the Creating a NAND Backup and Restoring a NAND Backup. If you have your sysNAND backed up when the 3DS was freshly hacked, then you can attempt sysNAND restore. It won't do you good if you try creating a backup now in the current corrupted state the sysNAND on the 3DS is right now.
Godmode9's giving me an error, something about ntrboot

You're missing your boot9strap folder from the screenshot you provided and have in place the older arm9loaderhax. I don't think you're on ntrboot CFW.

Check out this guide in switching over: https://3ds.hacks.guide/a9lh-to-b9s

Edit - You can also try this after you convert to boot9strap.

I am already on boot9strap, I can't exactly show the screenshot ATM but I will when I can, also I've done all the methods you've listed above.

Ok so I solved this issue by literally just removing the cartridge that is in my 3DS. I have absolutely no clue why this worked, but it worked for me when it happened a while ago. In my scenario, the working NAND backup I had was successfully restored, but it still didn't actually show the home screen. So please try removing a game cartridge if you have one in your 3DS

I tried and it seems like it isn't doing anything.

Ok. Have you tried updating the system through the recovery mode? DON'T DO THIS IF YOU DID A CTR TRANSFER, as I have no clue what will happen, and I don't want to screw up your 3ds even more than it already is.

Ok. First, try booting withought the game cart OR the SD card. If that doesn't work, I have one more idea. Last thing you should try that I know of: Literally wait 20 minutes to see if the 3DS will boot. This seems crazy, but this has actually worked for some people. Please let me know if you try this before you do it, and also tell me the results.
