I HAD SO MUCH GOOD MEMORIES WITH THIS THING HELP!! HELP!!

dont you have a nand backup?

If you took a NAND dump and have boot9strap (or whatever the one that happens on boot is called... it's been a while...) then you should just be able to use the GodMode9 homebrew to restore it. Fairly sure that should work fine even if you destroyed the rest of the system.

 

[Hayato213]

If you got a NAND backup restore your NAND, if you don't do a ctrtransfer.

 

[DTApple]

I can sympathize with your situation. So let's try to fix it. First, please be aware that I am not well-versed in 3DS homebrew. Please take my words with a few grains of salt.
If you have a NAND backup, you should be able to restore it from GodMode9, with instructions here.

If you don't have a NAND backup, try a CTRtransfer, with instructions here. Hope this helps! Good luck! (oﾟvﾟ)ノ

What these guys said.
Also, kindly refrain from spammy post titles. Posting "HELP!!" twenty times as a post name is not helpful and quite annoying. Take a deep breath. Calm down. It's not the end of the world.

I cant download the files because my little brother broke my laptop, he threw it against the wall and started jumping on it, so it's completely shattered l and I am using his school Chromebook and everybody knows that schools block EVERY WEBSITE and the 3DS Hacks Guide website is blocked and categorized as "security.warez. I can't do GitHub because it says "it is on a custom block list.". I can't do MediaFire too because it is categorized as "security.proxy." Can someone share a link that isn't these 3 sites. I really want my 3DS back and working again and I don't want to do a lot of work to do so.

Seeing as the files your asking for are all copyright. You are kinda outta luck. Better hope you can get a hold of a better pc or laptop and not some school bs thing.

You can probably bypass the school's security system by using custom DNS settings. Try setting 8.8.8.8 as your primary and 8.8.4.4 as your secondary. Pretty much everything you're gonna be looking for is gonna be on those websites.

Do you not have another laptop or mobile phone? If you can't figure out a way to get past the restrictions on a Chromebook, try accessing these websites and guides through an unrestricted device.

You really shouldn't use school devices for modding purposes. It's very difficult and often counterintuitive. You'll need a PC or laptop that's not under a school network. Different school networks operate differently so there's no way for us to tell what works and what doesn't. You're going to have to do that yourself.

Please don't give directions on how to circumvent school restrictions on school-owned devices. That can get people in trouble.
This wouldn't work anyway, because the security systems are usually embedded into the devices themselves.

No, since you REALLY need to read the guide as well so you don't mess up more

You could always use a proxy/VPN.

ctrtransfer is a good idea and if that fails, then ctrtransfer (Type D9) which is a more thorough ctrtransfer, can fix some issues that a normal ctrtransfer can't.

This is true. Chromebooks have hardware in them that restricts things. My stepson got one from a school auction and we tried putting an OS on it that allowed more functionality, and it wasn't easy at all. There's a screw in there that has to be removed to unlock it, if I remember right. Anyway, we ended up scrapping it.

I already read the guide from a proxy I was using, I could download FBI faketick, and Godmode9 but I couldn't download the ctrtransfer file that's why I am asking for someone to send me a link with the file, I use a new 3ds by the way

You can torrent those ctrtransfer image.

They cannot be shared here

 

[Kwyjor]

Would a mod kindly step in and remedy that eyesore of a subject-line?

 

[MayorBryce]

I'd also recommend, before you do anything, to back up your save data. You should still be able to access the homebrew launcher, right? Backup your save data to the SD card. Depending on the apps, it might be possible to also get donor system apps. If that doesn't work, I once used a program called ThreeSD to copy my save data to a Citra installation and then restored it.

 

[KleinesSinchen]

Mistakes happen and that is what backups are for. You could try booting into safe mode A+R+L+Up(DPad) on power on for official update. Question is if the needed part of System Settings and save mode FIRM are still there.

Copyright is sometimes stupid when it stops legitimate users from recovering their device. In the end it shouldn't be too hard to type CTRTransfer into the internet archive.

Nope. Home Menu doesn't load from the description. Official OS is trashed and needs to be repaired.

ThreeSD it is. All it requires is a Citra installation, Citra doesn't even need to run well. You can import the Save Data and reinstall everything. GM9 could also help with restoring stuff.

I'm assuming they don't have a NAND backup, which would fix everything.
