Hacking I think my new 2ds xl is messed up and I need help

[radical_lee]

I'll try to make it short
I had Luma3ds on my 2ds
installed majora's mask 3d, it needed an update but before thaat it said that it needed a system update
after the system update it shut down and when I turned it back up it said something like ARM11 an error has occurred
to make it shorter, I looked up a few sites about how to fix it but none worked so I thought that if I format my sd and delete all the files it might 'reset' the system
deleted them, didn't work, despaired a bit and tried to recover the files but it weren't the files I needed
so now I'm left with a 2ds that I can't boot up and an sd card without anything on it
I would just want to know if I can do anything to save the 2ds, I don't even care about the files that were on it

are you on b9s? you may have done a lot of damage by deleting everything. you need the latest version of luma to boot without that error.

gotta say first, I'm an idiot about all this stuff so I might get some things wrong
if I remember right there was something like b9s mentioned when I was installing luma back then
and I didn't know about needing the newest version of luma until it was too late

see if your system boots with that. make sure the sd card is inserted.

Yeah I geared that you'd say that
As I said, I deleted al the files on the sd card so now it's blank

sooooo... bad news and good news
bad news: the files on my old pc were for setting luma up but not the finished stuff/backup
good news: one of the files was some kind of backup for godmode9 so now I have the 2ds on factory settings
still, thanks for the effort

Try to retrieve the deleted files from the SD card with a data recovery software.

• List of data recovery programs

Copy and paste any found files and folders from SD card to computer. Reformat the card, put back those lost items such as the Nintendo 3DS folder, and then add essential CFW files as needed.

• CFW: I formatted my 2ds's sd card and now it wont turn on [post #17]

Hello. I've been having the same issue as well however I haven't deleted anything yet. I'm pretty sure downloading the new version of luma will work for me as well but just in case do I just download the new version and boot it through Godmode or do I do something different in the case that I still have all my files?

Just download the latest version of Luma (v10.2.1), extract the boot.firm (and the boot.3dsx if you will) and put it (them) on the root of your SD card replacing the older one(s).

And, then, if you want, perform this guide:

No need to delete anything, but replacing at much.

Yup, always works for me!
