I've been installing CIA's on my emunand for a while now. I have successfully added many games, and deleted them when I've finished playing them. I messed up on one of them, Cubic Ninja. It installed fine, but something must've gone wrong when I uninstalled it. There's a black box on my emunand now that has no icon, no name, and no publisher. On loading, it loads Cubic Ninja. How do I get rid of this? If I have to, I can make a whole new emunand, though I'd rather not do that until I try other methods of getting rid of it. Thanks guys!

I could've written it to the NAND, but my emunand and sysnand are supposed to be unlinked.
nand does not mean sysnand it means nand (. . .you know as in emunand)
fbi allows you to select nand or sd as the install destination (your emunand witch is stored on your sd card has its own . . . well nand)
your linked or unlinked nands have nothing to do with the question

edit: ok lets read here . . .

hmm so if you know that the problem app in question is cubic ninja then i have 2 possible solutions for you
1. install bbm (big blue menu) and use that to look for and delete the cubic ninja app you may or may not need to look up cubic ninjas title id first 3DS Releases
2. restore your emunand backup from before you caused this problem

2nd edit:
Have the same problem on my sysNAND...
is it the same or does the black box boot nothing/(freeze the console) when you load it?

Option 1 worked, thanks for the help. I was busy for a while so I just got to try it now. Turns out I did have it installed to the NAND after all!

1. install bbm (big blue menu) and use that to look for and delete any app you see two or more times

i made edits to the quote it should work for you

I installed and check with bbm and the only titles I see are: BBM itself, Browser and the 2 GBA games I installed. I have a NAND backup. This is on my sysNAND. There are 3 black boxes.
can you post a screenshot because that makes no sense . . . if you just installed bbm then why do you not see your previous cia installer as well? . . . there has to be something you are missing/(not telling me) here . . .
. . . so lets start here what is your sysnand fw version? and rxtools version?

If they used FBI injected into H&S to install BBM then they wouldn't see FBI in BBM.

My sysNAND is 6.0.0 on a 2DS. My rxTools version is 3.0. There are some screenshots.

EDIT: I installed 3 GBA games and removed 1. Each square appeared when I installed a GBA game.
ok so easy fix use the 9-28 rxtools build from this link RxTools Nightlies by @WhoAmI? (remember to create a new firmware.bin and place it it sd/rxtools/system
then follow these steps to update sysnand to 9.2 this will fix your problem
How to Update your 3DS/2DS to 9.0 or 9.2

If you want to boot rxTools as soon as you turn on your 3DS, then you need to set-up Menuhax; and to use Menuhax, you need to be on 9.0 - 9.2 firmware.
Warning: This can brick your 3DS if done incorrectly! Be sure that you follow the instructions carefully!

Requirements:
  • FBI installed in sysnand (Step 4a if you don't have Gateway or Ninjhax) OR any other cia installer on Sysnand
  • A rxTools 3.0 nightly (preferably the one linked in Step 2)
    • Also works on rxTools 2.5.2 (for those that can't launch 3.0)
Let's get started.
  1. Click HERE
  2. Click the CIA Format DLC's, Themes & Updates [Archive] result
  3. Click View Full Version : CIA Format DLC's, Themes & Updates at the top of the page
  4. Find the thread titled [MEGA] [CIA/BIN] MSET 4.X & 6.X backups, Browser backups, Update packs (All Regions)
  5. Scroll down to the section titled Updates
  6. Download either the 9.2 modified update pack for your region, or a 9.0 or 9.2 Full Update Pack for you region
  7. Once downloaded, open the archive and find the "updates" folder; place it on your SD card. There should be many cia files in that folder.
    • Example: SD:/updates/0004013000008003.cia
  8. Download Sysupdater
  9. Open the archive and put sysUpdater.cia on your SD card
  10. Insert your SD card in your 3DS
  11. Hold L while launching rxTools to get into the rxTools menu
  12. Press DPAD RIGHT until you highlight ADVANCED OPTIONS, then press A
  13. Go down to DEVMODE and press A
  14. After a few seconds, you should now be in sysnand; firmware spoofing is disabled but cias can still be launched in this mode.
  15. Launch FBI
  16. Install sysUpdater.cia (Destination: SD)
  17. Once installed, press HOME to see sysUpdater wrapped as a gift; unwrap it.
  18. Launch sysUpdater
  19. sysUpdater will ask you if you are sure you want to go ahead with the update; choose to accept it.
    • It will also tell you that you shouldn't be in Gateway mode, or have firmware spoofing. Do not worry about this, DEVMODE has no firmware spoofing, so sysUpdater will work as intended. Just be absolutely sure you are in DEVMODE (line 13), not RXMODE SYSNAND!
  20. Wait for sysUpdater to finish. When it is done, your 3DS will reboot into 9.0 or 9.2 firmware! You can now follow the steps to use Menuhax if you'd like.
taken from this guide [Tutorial] Installing rxTools Custom Firmware - (Old 3DS and 2DS)

also thank you for the pic that proves to me that the squares can simply be a bug as well as i have been told but as i said above the sysnand update will fix things for you
side note: your current sysnand backup has this problem as well personally i would not only keep it but also mark it to reflect that and create a new one after the sysnand update

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

If they used FBI injected into H&S to install BBM then they wouldn't see FBI in BBM.
. . .i personally had 3 instances of fbi installed to nand and only used injection

edit @skidooelan sorry forgot the link for the 9-28 RxTools Nightlies by @WhoAmI?

If it's been properly injected into H&S then it shouldn't be directly installed to nand, it should be replacing H&S app and thus BBM would not see it.
I don't think everyone who's used injection is automatically going to see FBI in BBM. I didn't.

. I can't find the 9-28 version when I click on download. And why I can't keep the actual firmware.bin?

EDIT: found the 9-28 version. How am I supposed to change the rxTools version to the 9.28 one?

I also had that my problem with my 2DS.. But they disappeared when I updated my EmuNAND to the latest version (10.3).
I followed this guide to successfully update my emuNAND to the latest version.
P.S my sysNAND is also 9.0.

EDIT: what emuNAND version do you have now? :)

    Tandem even

    i think i heard of that, it's a good idea, shouldn't need a dedicated GPU just to run a LLM or video upscaling
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the nvidia shield tv has AI video upscaling
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    LLMs can be run on cpu anyway but it's quite slow

    Have you ever been beaten by a wet spaghetti noodle by your girlfriend because she has a twin sister, and you got confused and fucked her dad?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I had a girlfriend who had a twin sister and they would mess with me constantly.... Until one chipped a tooth then finally I could tell them apart.... Lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They would have the same hair style the same clothes everything... Really messed with my head lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    @The Real Jdbye, I could see AMD trying to pull off the CPU GPU tandem thing, would be a way to maybe close the gap a bit with Nvidia. Plus it would kinda put Nvidia at a future disadvantage since Nvidia can't make X86/64 CPUs? Intel and AMD licensing issues... I wonder how much that has held back innovation.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i don't think nvidia wants to get in the x64 cpu market anyways
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    you've seen how much intel is struggling getting into the gpu market
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and nvidia is already doing ARM
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i don't think they want to take more focus away from their gpus
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah I think Nvidia s future lays in AI GPU acceleration stuff if they can get that going it's going to be super interesting in the long term
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    AI assisted game creation might become a thing
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    At least that's something I think would be pretty cool.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Don some VR glasses and gloves and talk to the computer and paint entire worlds

    "OK Cortana I want that mountain a little taller and more snow on top, and I would like some random ancient pine forest around the bottom"

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Many TBs of assets and the programming of something like that is going to be tough but I think it's something we might see in 20 years maybe sooner
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Psionic Roshambo AI assisted game creation is kinda already here, there was recently that AI that can turn any 2D image into a fully modeled 3D object, it's not perfect, but it's a starting point, beats starting from zero
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    before that there was one to generate a fully modeled scene from a 2D image
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but most recently, there was one that actually generates a working unity scene with terrain and textures already set up that you can import right into unity, that's a huge time saver right there
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and using LLMs to generate NPC dialogue and even dynamically generated quests is something i'm sure is already happening
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    will just take some time for games made using those things to be completed and released
