Hi, guys there is something wrong with my O3DS with A9LH for a while now, when I launch Pokemon games (Diamond, Pearl, Platinum, Heart Gold, Soul Silver) from my psychical legit cartridges, or my R4I flash card, I go far as to the load save screen, and when I load the save I get a black screen of death, but the Home button still works, and new game to so it can't load saves. Other games than I own work even Pokemon Black and Wite 1 and 2 load saves, so can some one tell me what 3DS Titles are responsible for running NDS games so I can reinstall them with FBI, because my cousin owns a O3DS with A9LH to, and it works on his and my N3DS with A9LH.
I already reinstalled:
DS Download Play (00048005484E441)
NINTENDO DSi™ (0004800542383841)
0004800F484E4841
0004800F484E4C41
and nothing, please help I'm on 9.2.0-20E.
(I've tried upgrading with sys updater my sysNAND to but got a black screen of death at launch (9.3.0-21E), and got only to save loading on 11.0.0-20E with my Pokemon Sun upgrade, so I figured that the internet browser must have something to to with it so I reinstalled and a black screen of death at launch, so that's a good start)

Ok, I'll try.
thats all I can think off since you messed aroud with sysdowngrader, you probably corrupted twl_nand so better set up a "fresh" ctr_nand by doing the transfer, then go to system settings, update to 11.3, and then restore twl funcunality, that should have your console running a "clean" ctr and twl nand

Well I got the ctr_nand from my cousins O3DS and still the same problem. I think it's because in the past my game card slot was replaced and by doing that I broke of one tracks and made a bridge to fix it, so maybe that was the save loading track for those king of carts, oh well I'll just use my N3DS to play those games, thanks for the help, bye.

Why don't you actually try the advice given before giving up?

Read carefully, I did like @addi33 told me and still didn't work. I got working 9.2 crt_sysnand from my cousins O3DS did a ctrtransfer (auto and even forced), and then I did the steps in plailects troubleshoot to restore the twl functionality, then I did the same in my emuNAND went from 1.2 to 9.2 with ctrtransfer with the help of autofirm, restored the twl functionality in emuNAND 9.2, updated it to 11.3, and that still got me only to the save loading screen. So after that I only restored my 1.2 emuNAND, and left the fresh 9.2 sysNAND cause it probably fixed other things sysUpdater broke like I couldn't update sysNAND with system settings an a game card, but now I can again.
PS. And if it still doesn't work on emuNAND witch a had for 4 years now, even before a9lh and my game card reader replacement (damaged PCB track that I bridged) with good ol Gateway flash card, and I remember that it did work then, so it's probably the PCB track, cause I remember that those games had a different save mechanism to prevent older save dumping homebrews from working.
Just tested save dumping and restoring with TWLSaveTool v1.2 and it works, so I don't know why is this still happening.

Why are you using your cousin's CTR files and not the ones provided in https://3ds.guide/9.2.0-ctrtransfer?

I went extreme, and did a ctrtransfer to 2.1.0-4E, Injected DevMenu_2x.cia to HS, to restore the twl functionality, and still save load and black screen, there must be some extra cia file for twl functionality that we missing? Is there a full sysNAND title list with a description saying what titles are for twl, or with titles from a firmware update can be installed with FBI without bricking the console, and removing a9lh?
