So recently (an hour ago), I tried to fix my 3DS but instead messed up the A, X, and Y buttons, cracked the bottom LCD, etc. and I was hoping there'd be some way to extract the moveable.sed and/or LFCS_B files without using the A button
Hardmodding is out of the question for a while until late March, as for the buttons, I may or may not have used large pliers to squeeze the buttons downYou could hardmod and use a PC to get it.

how did you mess the buttons up?
The B and A buttons were taking a noticeable amount of force for them to function and the last time that happened, simply squeezing them was good enough but it wasn't working this time around so my goal was to just get them to work properlyWhat was your goal in fixing your system?
Yes. You need a NAND dump, and otp.bin/NAND cid or GM9 essentials backup (more recent versions of 3ds.guide tell you to make one IIRC)So recently (an hour ago), I tried to fix my 3DS but instead messed up the A, X, and Y buttons, cracked the bottom LCD, etc. and I was hoping there'd be some way to extract the moveable.sed and/or LFCS_B files without using the A button
SO.... you could try to use a system transfer in the system settings?Thank you both for taking time trying to help me but I was able to get movable.sed and LFCS_B from FBI through the CTR NAND option, I just wanted to be able to transfer my saves and games to a new system
My system was blocked from sys transfers, that's why I was adamant about getting my files from itSO.... you could try to use a system transfer in the system settings?
Can you reseat the golden contact patch to get those buttons to work again? How badly damage are we talking about here? Pics?
- It's be cheaper just buying a refurbished gamestop n3ds online than getting my local repair man to fix everything
Lol i'm gonna tell you right now, this is an extremely easy fix and much cheaper to repair than buying another console.EDIT: More recent picture, this is from after I dropped it: View attachment 113114
- Dent in the battery socket that causes the magnet to freak out at times
- Loose as hell AYX buttons
- The touch screen is half dead
- R and ZR won't work at random times
- I managed to fix it but at first the power light wasn' working, that's how I eventually learned that the magnet was freaking out

His system is a New 3DS. You can't buy replacement bottom LCD for this system.Simply buy a new replacement screen bottom screen for your model.
Here is the bottom LCD of original new 3DS.His system is a New 3DS. You can't buy replacement bottom LCD for this system.
They've only started selling the top LCD some time the last few months at aliexpress, so there's hope for the bottom one available later.
Edit - It was easy to miss this when OP only mentioned one time what it was about GameStop in post #11.

Cool, good thing mine's an XL and that I just wanted the files so I can gut it open later, also no it's worse than you think, I used industrial pliers to squeeze the buttons down and I don't think a loud crack should've happenedHere is the bottom LCD of original new 3DS.

Here, I just recompiled GodMode9 v1.5.1 so that the B button reads as the A button, and so that the L button reads as the B button. (B = enter, L = back)So recently (an hour ago), I tried to fix my 3DS but instead messed up the A, X, and Y buttons, cracked the bottom LCD, etc. and I was hoping there'd be some way to extract the moveable.sed and/or LFCS_B files without using the A button
Oh crap what were you trying to do?!Cool, good thing mine's an XL and that I just wanted the files so I can gut it open later, also no it's worse than you think, I used industrial pliers to squeeze the buttons down and I don't think a loud crack should've happened
