Hacking My 3DS boots to a black screen and turns off instantly

[ShinLarc]

My 3DS boots to a black screen and shuts off instantly even when I have my SD card taken out. I did have Luma and updated it and I was wondering if there is anyway I can get it running.
I have tried to boot it with the SD card in and out but no bueno. Any ideas?

Does it make any sound? DOes the blue light stays on for some time?

As long as there is NO SD card inside the blue light stays on.

Ok, So you don't have proper files on your SD. I suggest trying luma 7.0.5 (or 7.5.0?) and 9.0. Try both while holding select on boot.

Copy "arm9loaderhax.bin" from Luma v7.0.5, and "boot.firm" from the latest Luma release to the root of your FAT32-formatted SD card.

I ended up getting the Luma configuration menu up and running!! what are the ticks I need to do on these options again?

First tell us your version (either the 7.0.5 or the 9.0) Or if you tried a different one then that one.

I had used the 7.05 bootloader hax. I ended up getting it all working and I really want to thank you guys!

Wait, there's more
I suggest updating from A9LH to B9S. Because A9LH supports only up to 7.0.5. That's why your 3ds stopped booting when you updated luma.

I am now updating from A9LH to B9S and I seem to have a problem.

I am on this part..

Section V - Installing Luma3DS Updater

1. Launch System Settings
2. Navigate to Data Management -> Nintendo 3DS -> Software
3. Select your existing Luma3DS Updater
4. Select the “Delete” option, then select “Delete Software and Save Data”, then press “Delete” to confirm
5. Press “Back” 3 times, then press (HOME) to return to the main menu
6. Launch FBI
7. Navigate to SD -> cias
8. Select lumaupdater.cia
9. Select the “Install CIA” option, then press (A) to confirm
10. Press (Home) to exit FBI

BUT... I do NOT have FBI launcher and there was no luma 3ds in data management
