Hello,
i have an problem with my o3ds.
I just played some games with Retroarch. I just closed the lid for some seconds and then opened it again... But my 3ds doesn't wake up from sleep mode. So i turned it off and turned it on again.... But it doesn't boot anymore....

The weird thing : The other payloads are still booting... So i can boot Decrypt9 and Hourglass9.
I also restored an NAND Backup, but it doesn't help....

Is this an MCU Brick (which would be weird because i can boot payloads and i can change the Screen Brightness with luma3ds....) or is it just an weird software brick?

I get a black screen on boot
Luma3DS's automatic patching reports when a patch fails, to make it easier to maintain the patches in the future and to prevent unintended consequences. This means that if you installed a pre-patched system title which contains the same patches applied by Luma, this will trigger an error (which manifests as a black screen on boot). You can fix this by reinstalling the clean versions from Nintendo.

  1. Use SELECT to get into the Luma configuration menu, and turn on the Enable exception handlers option.
  2. Attempt to boot. If you see a "svcBreak" in the "loader" process, go ahead with the steps. Otherwise, you have a different issue.
  3. Get the clean system titles package from here.
  4. From the package, copy NS.cia and the appropriate Home Menu cia for your region to the SD card.
  5. Create a sysmodules folder inside the luma folder, and copy loader.cxi from the package to it.
  6. Plug the SD in the 3DS and use SELECT to go to the Luma configuration menu, then check the Enable loading external FIRMs and modules option. Luma3DS should now be booting again.
  7. Open your favorite cia installer (the guide has been tested successfully with FBI). If you don't have one it's outside the scope of this guide, check how to get your first cia installed on Plailect's guide (refer to the "Injecting FBI" section).
  8. Install the .cia files you copied in step 4.
  9. Luma3DS should now be functioning normally, you can delete the .cia files you used and the luma/sysmodules folder, and revert the Developer options and Enable loading external FIRMs and modules options.
