So problem is my computer don't recognize the sd card. After few tries it recognize it but win32disk imager can't write the dump. I can read the dump but can't write it I got error 1117. I tried to switch the lock button but nothing happened

Try another SD Card slot or even another computer
 
Guys I found someone in my country who has experienced with hard mod but he said my nand is bricked and they can't write or read my nand. but before I sent my console to them I can read the nand

He may have meant NAND is locked but that is not possible with the type of brick you have. You should be able to read and write to it given that the wiring is correct and using a compatable card reader.

I can read the nand but I can't write it. I think my card reader isn't compatable. Do you know any card reader that compatible with new 3ds xl? And also it has to be selling on Amazon because other companies don't ship to my country

It could be possible that the modified sd card adapater has the lock switch missing, causing it to stuck in read-only mode. I have no experience in it maybe someone else can help you out here. Kindly wait before someone can confirm so that you don't have to spend money.

EDIT: I read you post again and it seems you already sent it to that person...

I already spent more than $30 to fix it but it is still bricked.

Yea I re-read your previous post and noticed that. Okay what I think either he did not wire correctly or not using compatible card reader, for eg. most laptop built in multi card reader doesn't work.

Locked NAND is a special case in which someone has deliberately sent a low level command to emmc chip (NAND) to lock it out. Like the brick code by GW does that. So in your case that is not possible.

I can see the blue screen after plug the sd card to reader if wires didn't solder right I think I can't see the blue screen

Blue screen appears when emmc chip cannot be accessed. And yes that happens on NAND locked brick too where it shows even when nothing is connected. Therefore the guy has no idea. When you were able to read then yours only had to with the lock switch on sd card adapter I think.

I saw a post about lock switch I think that is true I couldn't write because there is no lock switch on the sd card that is why I sent it to him and he changed the sd card but after that he said still can't write. I don't know thw problem but I am waiting him to send the console back.

If that doesn't work, have you considered just replacing the motherboard? I know you've invested some time and money already, but it may be better if the problem can't be fixed.
 
iirc, data input v2 is for a9lh v2. I guess that's what the guide has u installing now. the safe a9lh installer (can't recall the exact name) must be version 2 as well or u'll brick. all the version 2's go together and all the version 1's go together. I'm sorry that happened to u though, but all is not lost. since u've made several backups, u can hardmod to get ur system back in working order.

I have backups but I think I couldn't do the hard mod
 
I think there r a few on here who could do it and even install a9lh for u in case u don't want to go through that again. as long as u have a backup, the system is recoverable.
