Hello, I tried to instill the homebrew laucher on my 3DS, but unfortunately it didn't work and now it only starts with the SD card ... I have to load the backup with Start + Power but it still doesn't work ... if I want to start without an SD card, only the blue LED lights up for 1 sec.

Hallo, ich habe Versucht auf meinen 3DS den Homebrew laucher zu instillieren, doch leider hat es nicht geklappt und jetzt Startet er nur noch mit der SD Karte womit ich den Homebrew lauchner instillieren wollte... ich habe schon mit Start + Power das Backup zu laden doch es funktioniert immer noch nicht... wenn ich ohne SD Karte Starte will, leuchtet nur die Blaue LED 1 sek.

Danke für schon mal für die Antworten!!!

It's because boot.firm is on SD card not in nand

@lone_wolf323
is my system completely broken?
do I have to set it up again or how?
Please don't cut corners when following the guide. Make sure you have all the needed files (boot.firm, boot.3dsx and everything from the finalizing page).
https://3ds.hacks.guide/de_DE/finalizing-setup.html ← German version – just in case you prefer it. I never read the translation and don't know if it's any good.
If you came here after following some questionable video on YouTube or whatever: Avoid such video tutorials in the future. They are often bad and/or outdated and/or missing important steps.

If you have any further questions or problems: Just ask.

Good luck and have fun!




It makes no sense to point to Section VI if we cannot be sure everything (including GodMode9 and it's scripts) is already on the SD. "lol can't read!!11!" How is a beginner supposed to know what files should be be on the SD when they are told to start with Section VI?


Just start over from the very beginning and follow the guide step by step.
Why? Apparently B9S is already installed.
