From the first post:
FAQs from OP said:
Q: Why do I get a black screen when launching a game, or "Add Games"?
A: TWL_FIRM may be broken somehow. Please follow this part of the guide. https://3ds.guide/troubleshooting#twl_broken

If your SD card isn't locked, then I dunno why it happens. :(

Ok, I don't know why it's happening either hence why I asked. Is there anyway I would be able to manually replace the bootstrap? I have tried downloading the latest one and renaming it to the name of the old bootstrap, the previous versions that come with the twloader 7zip, and I just get 'no version available' still.

Do you have the "release-bootstrap" and "unofficial-bootstrap" files (not the .nds files) from the "_nds/twloader" folder?
Both contain the version numbers.

I think I was using the nds files instead of the correct ones. Do you know where I would be able to obtain the correct files?

From TWLoader.7z.

Is there a way to get the latest "release-bootstrap" and "unofficial-bootstrap" files (not the .nds files) from the "_nds/twloader" folder for 0.5.1? And if I were to obtain them, what would I need to do with the 0.5.1/0.5.1b nds files? Sorry if I'm talking a bunch of nonsense.

Just it case you don't get what I mean, it's in TWLoader.7z, then "sdroot", then "_nds" and then the "twloader" folders.
If the files aren't there, then you're out of luck. As long as bootstrap works fine, you're good.
And if I were to obtain them, what would I need to do with the 0.5.1/0.5.1b nds files? Sorry if I'm talking a bunch of nonsense.
To get the up to date .nds files, update bootstraps in TWLoader.

When I updated the bootstraps in
twloader it deletes the corresponding bootstrap file in the "twloader" file that is inside "_nds"

So for some strange reason, they're not downloading.
Are you sure you can use the Internet fine on your 3DS, like using the Internet Browser?

My 3ds works fine for online play and the internet. Is there a way I can send you some screenshots as they are too large for gbatemp.

After 'updating' the bootstrap in twloader (the lines are just covering my IP address as I was using an ftp client), I tested Mario kart after and it still worked perfectly in twloader. Sorry for not having a single clue about what to do as I'm not very knowledgeable on the program

    In the end that call ended up costing Dell millions in lost contracts with Raytheon, and really the issue could have been solved for like 450 bucks lol
