Hacking BRICKED N3DSXL 11.2.0.33U using fasthax/safehax and decrypt9

Which you're more likely to see when there's a huge new surge of people trying out ctrtransfer for the first time.

I actually did and I used the attached zip you provided, everything went fine here.
Although I did follow the steps from 3ds.guide with my biggest attention.

That's their own fault, no sympathy from me personally. They should take the precautions and risks of even modding their console.

This brick had literally nothing to do with the exploits used. Chances are you bricked because you used the wrong ctrtransfer image or simply made a mistake at some point in setting it up. Either that or a bug in the software resulted in a failed transfer. Hope you made a nand backup.... Either way this thread is misleading because the exploit used to get the permisions needed for decrypt9 didn't fail. If they had then decrypt9 wouldn't have run.... The exploit can't cause a brick as it doesn't modify anything.... However what you did with them does have a brick risk

I bricked after a "successful" ctrtransfer with the correct image over the weekend. It happens apparently.

i did do a nand backup what can i do with it

restore it with hardmod

Upload the decrypt9.log so we can know what went wrong, easy. It should be in the files9 folder

 

[zombigrn]

are you using arm9loaderhax.bin from luma3ds? and did you delete 0000008f folder from every folder in nintendo 3ds? i didint do this and thought i bricked

Guys, read the OP. He didn't delete Home Menu's extdata. It's not fault of anyone other than his own.

Uh, it would still boot fine without an SD card if that were the issue.

yep i think it would too.

 

[Glyptofane]

There are really few options for user error to brick with this step other than having the image for the wrong region or possibly a bad SD card.

It's definitely user error. Tons of other followed my guide and only problems they had were because of user errors. Most were resolved by simply asking in the thread. Some weren't because I'm not some sort of high-skilled dev (yet) like the ones in the credits.

 

[Spore2]

Not all black screens are bricks.

 

[NoNAND]

But why did it not brick my system?

Yup, also deleting/moving the entire Nintendo 3DS folder after doing the downgrade or al9h install would be the same as the folder would be recreated by the system.
Seems most likely a flaw in D9 CTRNAND transfer process.

@OP did you try accessing recovery mode to see if you can update to 11.2 and try again? Or it's also unavailable?

 

[retrofan_k]

I was expecting this to happen to someone sooner or later, fasthax being alpha and all.

No pity tbh.

yeah i tried it with no luck. i think it came down to this old 256 gb microsd i found. even though i tested it. ive checked that i used the right region files, i honestly dont know what went wrong haha. i was so excited when decrypt9 finished fuckkkkkkkkk

Please don't tell that's an ebay blue-light special card. Those things lie about their size and it usually causes corruption with large files.

 

[Hyoretsu]

I honestly don't think the process went wrong. 2.1 CTRtransfers are in no way new, and a brick has never occured if not by user error.
