Hacking Possible SD Card failure?

[DefeatedSouls]

Hello everyone,

I recently updated Luma to latest version and then updated my N3DS to the latest firmware *as i've done in the past*

I installed some theme CIA's from Howling theme engine and all went well there, after trying to install a GBA ROM hack to my device VIA NSUI, i began getting this error for ANY .cia file.

"RSA/Hash verfication failed"

I'm really not wanting to try and hack this 3DS again as I dont even know if it's possible on the latest firmware...

Any ideas how to fix this, or what's wrong?

Thanks

Your console is hacked, its wrote to the internal components of the 3ds not the sd. SD only provides a bootable payload for the console.

That error usually means somethings gone wrong. To start please check your sd card for faults.

Check if your SD card is fake, faulty, or dying.

1. Copy everything off the SD card to a computer.
2. Quadruple reformat.
3. Full Write + Verify the empty card in H2testw. Do not skip.

Just posting as much as I thought I needed, testing the SD card, will update

Awaiting Amazon to deliver a new card I ordered yesterday. Guess it's no 3DS for now.

Just got the new SD card, I can just copy the files over and place it back into the 3DS correct?

Repeat steps 1–3 on the replacement SD card.

I noticed I didn't have the device formatted for 3DS use before popping it in, I did the guiformat and copying data over now, thank you for all your help You've been amazing! I'll update progress.

Don't skip steps, or you may later find yourself regretting that you did if that new card happens to be a counterfeit.
