You can pay the two people I mentioned to do it or you can open up your 3ds solder some wires break up a Microsoft card reader and get a supported we card reader.

Do you have a way to reliably reflash your NAND backup? Does the 3DS stay on while you go through the menus and stuff? If so, try that.

Wait, stop looking into hard mods. It hasn't yet been established that this is necessary. You said that when you boot with the SD card inserted it powers itself off, correct? If so and you are a A9LH user, this is a symptom of A9LH not being able to find the payload on the SD card. You should put your SD card in your computer and check the card is readable and the payload is there.

If you're not a A9LH user then this sounds more like a hardware fault than a NAND issue.

Exactly. Download THIS FILE, extract it, and put the arm9loaderhax.bin from it onto the root of your SD Card. Also try switching SD Cards, because sometimes, if your 3DS SD Card slot/SD Card is broken, it may fail to be read properly.

Does it Make any popping sounds at all when it turns off, could be that a ribbon or the wireless card come loose!

He is using rxTools, so I guess his console hasn't set up a9lh yet.
And I don't think there is a way our 3ds get bricked when playing a game. Maybe a battery issue? Or 3ds's nand/cpu/gpu is dead?

It's possible the NAND could become corrupted if the console runs out of battery at the wrong moment. Unlikely, but possible. I haven't heard of it happening before, but sooner or later it's going to happen to someone.

Your problem is that you're using rxtools.
Well not quite, depending on what caused it, it could be any number of things. Especially since the battery ran out in sleep mode.

Oh wait it doesn't say it did.
Ah well, still any number of things.

Rxtools is a buggy pile of code. Uses outdated native firmware file, and is known to be the worse CFW option since the release of cakes, reinand, and aurei/luma3ds. I've never had any bricking issues with any of those. I don't even trust rxtools and I used it for the longest time before switching to rei and then luma. Rxtools is most likely the reason for the brick.
