Your nands are linked. Back up every thing and format your secondary nand (the one that has nothing on it. (You can also just back up your nand and restore it after you format.)

Hello i used guide on https://github.com/Plailect/Guide/wiki/Part-4-(Getting-the-OTP) and when i finished
Section IV - Restoring the System

i can't boot in with lum i get a black screen and i tried several times but if i take the card out i can still go to the 9.2 sys now is this normal and can i continue with the loading of armloader or did i mess something up ;p and i'm doing it on a O3ds

Sounds like you haven't actually installed A9LH yet if it boots without the card. So, you can't get Menuhax to come up? If that's the case, just put your card back in after turning the system on, and change your theme. Then reinstall Menuhax. Of course, from what I'm reading Browserhax is down atm, so, you may have to wait for that to come back up if you aren't using an exploitable cart. EDIT: Just checked it, seems to be up now.

That said, I once had a large card that hated running payloads from a boot manager for some odd reason (maybe BootCTR was too fast for it). It would run one payload, then trying to boot anything but HB menu gave me a black screen until I reinstalled Menuhax. Running them from the HB menu solved the problem until I got A9LH up and running. Probably some junk clone card.

Can i just do the take out sd card and format trick in sysnand?

I would use TinyFormat. Keeps your NNID intact, and anything installed to NAND (including legit DSiWare). You can install NAND DevMenu, for example, then run TinyFormat, and it will still be there (highly recommended). But I would be certain they're linked. Try installing something in each. See which folder it goes to each time. CN is small.

It was the micro sd management cia which was crashing the menu. For some weird reason it didnt crash while on gateway. I deleted this title and the problem was fixed, i no longer need emunand so no loss here.

I was about to ask if you had MicroSD Management installed. The old versions do that. There are decrypted versions that fix the problem. Do a search for "microsd management" on a certain iso site. Second thread.

Hey guys, I've got an old "AuReiNandv3.8.1" with al9h and all the old guide said some months ago, so I wanted to update to the latest Luma5.5, but after making the folder "luma" on my SD and moving all the files from "rei" folder there and then, deleting everything beside the empty "payload" folder like I think I've got from the wiki, I simply get the black screen, so I restored the old rei folder, since I don't think to have got my problem here.

Hi guys,

i got an error when playing MHX yesterday.
I'm using Luma3ds A9LH on New3DSXL.

I left it alone for about 30 minutes, idling on the gathering hall (in-game), then suddenly the background music goes off then black error screen pops up,
"An error has occured please hold power button blablabla"

is it a bug on Luma or the game cia file?

Did you replace the arm9loaderhax.bin file on the root of ur sd card with the luma one? Also have you ever used gateway to downgrade before?
