Hacking Help my n3ds bricked

[Ralph1611]

This is why I have like.....4 NAND back ups in different places... and I back up Emunand every so often.

Anything can happen. Sorry man.

 

[happydance]

even I know I have a NAND backup on 2 of my HDD and 1 on the SD card, every time I do something crucial with the 3ds I always make a new NAND.BIN backup

 

[Ralph1611]

oh, and anyone who bought a n3ds from me.... I have your nand back ups still incase you didnt make one.

I think the most important question is why did you turn it off? I mean like there are warnings everywhere.

I didnt exactly turn it off. What I actually did was first go to system settings to check the firmware, which it showed as 9.5, then exited system settings. When I did that, I got the black screen of death, and after that I turned it off.

Where?
We know that OP does not have EmuNAND partition and he never wrote he search for NAND.bin on SD.
@blackblaze ?

I do not have it on my SD card T.T Thanks for the help though.

Thank you to everyone who helped me in this thread! I contacted nintendo and they told me to send it in for repairs.

dont forget to remove the flashcart before you send it in, probably would remove your SD card too.

Yup will do!

I created Emunand on the 4 Gb card that I got my with N3DS XL. Then I switched it out with a 32 Gb one and that's what I use currently. The 4 Gb card is now safe and secure

Now, I have 2 to 3 nand backups on my PC, pen drive, and of course the 4 Gb card that came with my system

did you do a "complete format" or just a "quick format", 'cause there are programs that can help you to recover files after format, so... why don't you try that? hopefully you can find you NAND.bin

EDIT: Talking about your PC, of course, I used to have "Recuva"

I didnt format the sd card. I formatted my laptops hard drive.

yeah, forgot to mention that I'm talking about your PC, search for "Recuva" in google.

EDIT (Again): did you format your HDD with the WinX installer? 'cause if that's the case, there are so much probabilities that you can recover your NAND.bin with this program

I just used recuva on all local drives but I was unable to recover any of my old files. Thanks for helping though.

Just making sure, you are using EmuNAND Tool v1.03 right? Not any lower version?

Yup. But I apparently did not set up emunand properly so there was nothing to extract.

Made one myself. But if you could send me a link through PM that'd be awesome, just so I have another backup.

I dont have it uploaded anywhere, but if you show me how, id do it.

 

[Zidapi]

Yup will do!

Did you go with the "lost power during update" excuse?

I'd do that, and hope they can't prove otherwise. Because your warranty is invalid since you've violated the EULA.

Yup just told them that and they bought it.

Did you check to see if you have a Windows.old directory on the root of your main drive? Or did you completely wipe everything?
