Why did you follow the uninstalling CFW guide only to worry about it being unhackable? :/ It's hackable, but now you'll need to buy compatible flashcart for ntrboot and refollow 3ds.guide if you wish to reinstall CFW.

After you installed luma, you updated to the new FW, correct?
Well after purging luma, your sys is on 11.5. Why did you uninstall it?
You can do ntrboot hack now,.with flashed DS card now.

So my 3DSXL kept turning off if no sd card was present and some things kept crashing my 3DS (ex homebrew launcher). So I thought, to redo everything from scratch... :/

Well the 3DS turning off with no SD card present is an easy fix but it's too late now.

Number 1 rule - ask on the forums or on the homebrew discord if you have issues and you aren't certain how to fix them (i.e. before trying random stuff).
Thanks lol it's working again with LUMA. I just didn't know it would end up this bad. Thank NTR :)

If you mean AceKard 2i then you will need a different system to be able to flash it e.g. an original DS or a second 3DS with CFW.
All done Thanks again!

Everything is all good now. I installed Boot9Strap + LUMA. My whole thing was, I was trying to install LUMA and it all seemed well but when I was following the guide to use the Download Play app, and attempting to run HBL, it kept crashing and I didn't understand why. So eventually I decided to want to start fresh and reinstall LUMA. I looked up uninstalling LUMA CFW and ended up at the guide. After that, I noticed that the FW was the latest and freaked out! Then, I came here and asked for some assistance. Thanks to NTRBoot, and you guys for pointing me in the right direction, I was able to restore everything back to the way it was and complete the installation. Thanks again GBATemp members!

    I want a 120hz 4k tv but crazy how more expensive the 120hz over the 60hz are. Or even more crazy is the price of 8k's.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Mostly why you never see TV manufacturers going post 60hz
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I only watch tv when i goto bed, it puts me to sleep, and I have a nas drive filled w my fav shows so i can watch them in order, commercial free. I usually watch Married w Children, or South Park

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)
