Let me say this first: I know there is LITERALLY NO REASON to uninstall cfw or return a 3ds to factory settings, I just wanted to retry installing it to show a friend, even though that runs the risk of bricking even MORE.
I think I reaaaally messed my system up bad. I thought I restored my system to factory defaults correctly but didn’t fully delete all the custom firmware through gm9 before formatting it. I DID follow the guide to uninstalling cfw, I just accidentally skipped the part where you “uninstall hax” with gm9 and just went right ahead and formatted it. When I turn on my 3ds after inserting my sd card, it still boots into luma, even after I delete all the files on the sd card (I only deleted the files after I formatted the system through system settings). I’m not sure how to uninstall the hacks without gm9, and I’m afraid to re-install it again out of fear of it bricking the system. I’m not sure at all why it hasn’t bricked yet, or maybe actually it’s because I didn’t uninstall the hacks but just rather deleted all the files. Is there anything I can do? I just want to finish removing the rest of the cfw.
I am heavily convinced that at this point there is nothing I can do, but if anyone can confirm this at least, I would be grateful for your help
