How are you trying to get to hourglass? Did you place the arm9loaderhax.bin for hourglass9 into the root of your sd card? I'm trying to help you out but you're only giving me fragments of information. There are more than one arm9loaderhax.bin. Every program you chainload from Luma has one. (Basically any program that ends in "9", hourglass9, decrypt9, godmode9, etc.) Try loading those instead of Luma.

I think I may have figured out where you went wrong.

After installing the cia's the guide has you copy the arm9loaderhax.bin from your sd card to your CTR nand. I think you may have fat fingered it and accidentally deleted all contents instead. As far as I know this should not affect the arm9loaderhax installation and you should still be able to load an arm9loaderhax.bin from the sd card. However, I have never nuked my ctr nand so I can not say for sure.

that the big problem.. i cant get to hourglass.. what is hardmod? and how can i do that?

edit: wtf soldering? i cant do that.. is there another option? how to make arm9loaderhax.bin works?
Ok try this download this zip and take the arm9loaderhax.bin and put it on the root of your sd and try boot your 3ds with your sd without holding anything. it should boot hour glass 9.

Hold down start while booting then restore a nand backup from hourglass.

I have no qualms with cussing but try not to... Why the hell did it take you 2 years to come back here and revisit fixing your 3DS?

Probably because ntrboothax didnt exsist yet and he probably needed to hardmod if i had to take a educated guess.

Aaand, he signed off. :/

His 2nd to last reply was on Jan 20, 2017 while the thread trails off in March. NTRboot was *officially* released May 30, 2017 [1], but news of its practicality must have been rumored earlier. Okay, so people don't catch onto something until it's well established and becomes a done deal: lets add 6 months tops. That gives an entire 2018 year he could have heard of 3DS homebrew, hacks, and custom firmware developments.

This is unless of course bricking his 3DS devastated his well being so much that he ignored anything 3DS related altogether.

If @ponching27 does not reply back in the next 2 days, I'll send him a PM with repair info pertaining to whatever softbrick he has.

Will this work guys
https://www.lazada.com.ph/products/...4l.searchlist.list.37.5ed71bbeDBVnae&search=1

Thanks for all your help.. i really appriciate it..
it could . . . or it may not. see its not pre-flashed so you will need a console that can load it . . . a working ds or dsi or 3ds (or any variant of these consoles) will be needed to set up the exploit on the sd card

the card i linked comes with ntrboot (literally) on it . . . not just the ability to use it

    @AncientBoi, Yeah, believe you can do PSP games as well. But a Pi5 is much powerful in comparison.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Not sure about other models of Pi4 but the Pi 4 B with 8GBs OCed to 2Ghz handles PSP really great except like 1 game I found and it is playable it just looks bad lol Motor Storm Arctic something or other.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Other games I can have turned up to like 2X and all kinds of enhancements, Motorstorm hmmm nope 1X and no enhancements lol

    I will admit that one does seem more interesting than the usual Ambernic ones, and I already liked those.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I dread the price point.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    This looks like one of their premium models, so... $150 :glare:

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    To me that seems reasonable.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I mean since basically all the games are errmmm free lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet :(
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    yes that's the expensive part lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean sure it's flexible and stuff but so is uremum but it's fiddly.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I want everything served on a plate plz ktnx, "work" is too much work for me.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150 :unsure:
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah it's all choice and that's a good thing :)
