I have been away for study for a few months and just got back recently and found out my little brother deleted a few apps from my n3ds namely the fbi one and the hbl. Now I dunno how to get that back. I tried to use ninjahax to get back into hbl to re install fbi but i keep getting an error. My system is on 11.3 btw. And it's the cfw firmware. Can anyone help me on how to restore fbi? And for some reason I can't boot into luma3ds when holding the select button on startup

it says Sys 11.3.0-36E when I go check firmware
first you need to check if you still have CFW. what CFW did you installed? Was it luma? if so can you boot into luma setting by holding select.

getting an error when installing CIAs through userland homebrew, and not booting into luma sounds like you are in official firmware.

Edit: what CFW do you think you had? do you remember what guide or video you used to installed it?

Did you looked on the SD Card ? try renaming horglass9.bin to arm9loaderhax.bin and then start the 3DS and now just hs.app inject from 3ds.guide ^^

I used Plialect's guide but that was back when it was first possible to downgrade from 11.2. After that I didn't had much time to play with the 3ds. My little brother said he updated the 3ds today after reading that he should update luma to 6.6 first and then do a normal update in system settings. After that he deleted a few apps and games from the home menu to free up memory card space.

but you cannot boot into luma?. like @Gnarmagon suggested. check the SD card and give us a screenshot. you might be missing the armloaderhax.bin

power down the console
hold select and power on the system
if you still have a9lh you should be greeted by lumaconfg

Whoa, luckily you had a9lh, dang man you could've been seriously screwed if you didn't have that/if he had flashed a nandbackup without keeping a9lh nand before he updated. o.o It's something I could see my 1 of sisters I installed CFW for easily do, I get nightmares if I think about it. I tried to explain everything to her, but as a precaution I also installed rednand with autoemunand boot for her to prevent cases like this.xD

A tip might be to get a separate SD for your brother with rednand & lock your luma, so he can't touch your sysnand + he could have his own games etc. without messing with yours if you didn't happen to have a backup!
