So my touchscreen has no touch functionally anymore, is there anyway to format the 3ds without using touch? Can I use Godmode9 maybe?

OK, so the real question is after I use TinyFormat, can I set up the 3DS without having to touch the touchscreen? I can still see what is on the touchscreen, it just has no touch functionally.

Nope, if you do a format you won't be able to use the 3DS until you fix the touchscreen because the language selection and setting the date and time all requires touching the buttons on the screen.

How urgent is it? I could make a 3DS formatter which completes the initial setup on its own after format.
Not urgent, just a little annoyed that I broke it. I was trying to clean the dpad because it was sticking, and when I took it apart I broke the touch screen ribbon. If you would make that formatter that would be awesome!

This payload will format your 3DS like TinyFormat would, but also tries to bypass the first time setup.

I don't know if this works or not because I don't have enough time to test this, but here, try it: https://puu.sh/AvZRA/250b260fd3.zip

If it prints any non-zero error code then DO NOT REBOOT! Tell me what it printed even if it succeeded :)

So it formatted, but now it's stuck at the setup screen.

Format result: 00000000
