Is it a new 3ds? If it is try turning off Clock+L2.

If not, I have no idea what's wrong.
Yes its a new 3ds! Ive changed it to just L2 and I will see if it helps. I chose two games, one works and one doesn't. Strange
 
Hey man, I fucked up after
"9. Decrypt9WIP will launch. Choose "SysNAND Options", "CTRNAND tranfer...", "Auto CTRNAND Transfer". Press LEFT, UP, RIGHT, UP and A. Press A twice. (one to select the downgrade file and the other to create a backup)"

Now instead of doing:
10. Press B and SELECT.

What I did was press START (turn off console).

Now, I'm at version 2.1, but I can't launch the homebrew launcher through the Sound Menu.

Is it okay if I update my O3DS to the latest firmware, and do the hack from the start? Thanks!

That was only to take off your microSD and delete the home menu extdata folder. Homebrew only works 9.0+. Just turn off, take your microSD off and continue.
 
When i try Step 7 (Opening 3DS Sound) my N3DS XL says that it is unable to open the file...Any help?
I've bought the 3DS 2 weeks ago.. i have tried it several times

Thanks

fucked up real hard lol, I panicked (screen stayed black when booting) and so I decided to delete the SD card's files and replace it with fresh ones (hoping to redo the hack again). But I couldn't access the homebrew channel any longer.

I now also can't boot to Decrypt 9 (If jack_okami was referring to me [press up when booting]).

Is it still okay to proceed to the next steps?

You can't access Homebrew because homebrew only works on 9.0+. Decrypt9WIP only works after you installed a9lh.

It's fine, I accidently pressed the power button on my N3DS when I wanted to take the SD card out. Just continue with the steps. (though you need to put the files back on the SD card)

Now I'm stuck in 16. (It'll open a black screen with a few things written on it. Press SELECT, wait a few seconds and press any button to shutdown your console.)

Everytime I turn my 3DS on, it just goes to the SafeA9LHInstaller screen. The Luma Config screen doesn't boot. Anything I'm doing wrong?

LOL it's because the guide is missing a step. Go to the bottom of the troubleshooting, it should be part of the guide.

If you can't get to Luma3DS screen after successfully following #16, get the arm9loaderhax.bin from this file and put in your microSD root.
If, after getting a glitched screen on step 15 and continuing like nothing happened you still don't see Luma's config, just re-start step 15.

Replace the arm9loaderhax.bin on your sd card from the on in this 7z.
 

:rofl2: You do realize it should be part of the guide? It's not a damn troubleshooting step.
