Hacking AL9H Old 2DS Revival

[Itsblaze302]

Hello guys. I had a 2ds with al9h and one day it wouldnt boot. I remember trying to fix it but could never. I did at one point get it to load into godmode9 so I could get my friend seed or whatever and it worked on my new 3ds. I just realized about the 2ds and wondered if I could revive it. Currently I have a blank sd card and don't remember what version it is but I never had B9S. I'm wondering what files I need and where to get them from.

I followed the tutorial and it seemed successful but I get a dark screen with no sound. I'm sure it's not the screen because I can see godmode9.

Section III - Configuring Luma3DS

1. In the Luma3DS configuration menu, use the (A) button and the D-Pad to turn on the following:
   • “Show NAND or user string in System Settings”
2. Press (Start) to save and reboot

after I reboot I just get this dark screen but it lightens up.

Try doing Section VI - CTRNAND Luma3DS and booting the console without SD card.

I did and same screen but the Rosalina menu works. I think maybe its a problem with my extdata but I dont have that on my sd card since I started over.

Does it boot to recovery if you hold L + R + UP + A while booting?

 

[Itsblaze302]

Nope, I get the same screen.

@Ferras2 - you should have used GodMode9 and the Lazarus3DS script. That can recover from anything (and better than D9 can).

Lazarus3DS: a last resort. https://github.com/AnalogMan151/Lazarus3DS
