I have been using the latest one, as far as I know, but I would still check, Ma'am.
Thank you so much for your help!
Decrypt9 I know for sure works on boot9strap v1.2, so maybe the v1.3 update for boot9strap (seeing as you followed the guide to update to the latest and v1.3 is the latest) it broke Decrypt9. That's all I can think of. Can you provide a screenshot of your SD:/luma/payloads folder?

I do hope the screenshot helps.. I'd really like to know what I should add or change to make it work..

Delete both mentions of Decrypt9 from that folder (and the start_SafeB9SInstaller.bin file because you no longer need that). Download the first zip file (named Decrypt9WIP-20170607-104551.zip) from here and extract it. Move the Decrypt9WIP.firm file to your payloads folder. Do not rename it and do not copy the Decrypt9WIP.bin file. Open the Luma chainloader and see if you can launch Decrypt9 now.

I do not know how you do it, Ma'am, but you make wonders, for sure.
I am now able to open Decrypt9, and now I'll be able to unban myself! You are such a great help, thank you so much!

hello, I just installed luma3DS on my o3ds XL and during the last step (finalizing setup) I turned off my device, filling up the files on my sd card as the guide instructed me and it couldn't be turned on anymore. I push the power button and only the blue light turns on. have I bricked my 3ds? during the luma 3DS configuration, I ticked on "auto start the emunand".

EDIT: I can get back to the menu by deleting the config.bin and removing the godmode on payloads.

EDIT 2: download update failed

EDIT 3: I tried CTR transfer https://3ds.guide/ctrtransfer and now my device doesn't turn on anymore even after I delete config.bin on my 3ds.

I am not sure what I was doing wrong... can anyone help me? or my device is as good as bricked

The blue light usually means you don't have boot.firm on your sd card. Can you get to GodMode9?

I could, before everything went wrong. my device shows godmode is loading but then it freezes. so it's not bricked yet?

I put boot.firm on the sd card as instructed by the guide.


EDIT:

suddenly I can access godmode9 again. what do I do now?

That means Luma is working. What exactly happens when you try to boot it normally? Does it still show the blue light?

when I boot normally it goes black. sometime it's entering luma 3DS configuration page, and if godmode9 is there it seems loading.

to be honest I am confused where should I go from here.

hi there,

i have some games installed, and since i upgraded to b9s, i installed mighty gunvolt burst and monster hunter stories, which do not boot up. i simply get a crash screen telling me all sorts of stuff including a crash.dump.log saved somewhere.

what to do to solve this issue? did i do something wrong, when i upgraded from a9lh to b9s?

Is your firmware at 11.5? If not, update. If you still have problems try visiting the game's eShop page to get the seed.

update from me:

for some reason, I was finally able to update my device and it's able to load the homebrew launcher etc, I don't know what really happened, but it works.

EDIT:
it seems i am still having a problem to boot. at the moment, it's a matter of luck whether I can boot into the device or not.

no, its not updated. i dont know if i should. i downloaded it from the freeshop, now it finally works, even though iam not sure why this is working now, while the cia-installed stuff didnt work before.

another question:

i have ever oasis(EUR) on my PAL device.

i saw that there is a korean version of the same game available on freeshop.

even though i have the EUR version dumped from the original cart on my device, will downloading the korean version of the game from freeshop meddle with the PAL version?

any advice for other korean games on the 3ds (it also should be in korean language because most games are only in english/japanese)?

I wonder if freeshop is updated. Sorting by USA and Europe, Fire Emblem Echoes is top of my list followed by Urban Trial Freestyle 2.

Does region change (for 2DSLL => 2DSXL) still access to eshop error ?
or it will work if I never use eshop on 2DSLL ?
