Hacking Black screen while trying to launch R4i SDHC 3DS RTS

[chris_247]

I'm running latest A9LH Luma on sysnand latest version on N3ds. I do remember installing Aurora's TWL_FIRM.cia a while back and Gateways blue card was working fine. I got this card to test out the new forwarders but I haven't gotten that far since I can't even boot it. It gives me a black screen and I have to force shut down the 3ds.

Have you tried it on another 3DS, or in a DS?

Yeah just now tested it on my old 3ds also running luma but on 10.6 and it opens fine so at least I know the card is good.

Replace the modded TWL_FIRM with the stock one, it's not needed as Luma patches it automatically and it can actually cause problems.

I'm looking around for it in the usual site but can only seem to find modded/patched ones. Hope I don't have to do a system format.

A system format won't remove the patched CIA, if something's installed to your NAND then it'll stay after system formats.

You can get it from the CIA update pack for your version, or download it with 3DNUS.

You are right! tittle 0004013820000102 but if i put version USA it throws an error. What should I put for version/region. Thanks for your help

http://3dbrew.org/wiki/Title_list#00040138_-_System_Firmware says the only TWL_FIRM for n3DS is v9936.

Alright, so i restored both my twl_firm and my agb_firm and i was still getting black screen but this time even on GBA virtual console. Turns out for some weird reason booting luma through CtrBootManager was the reason it was giving me black screens. I disabled CtrBootManager and booted just with the regular luma payload and both the flashcart and the gba virtual console work. I'll try to update CtrBootManager since I did have a really old version.
