    Hardware 3DS boot fail/Black Screen of Death, potentially fixing with NAND dumping?

    Sounds like I’ve got some research to do because I have know idea what “a Magnetic + B9S installed flashcart” is. I have hardnodded an XL before to restore a NAND dump but this is the older, original model and I don’t have one. Sounds like there are tools now to help without a NAND dump so I...

    Hardware 3DS boot fail/Black Screen of Death, potentially fixing with NAND dumping?

    Thank you for this. I just received an original 3DS to repair and it has the exact problem described in the OP. Will I be able to follow your guide if I don’t have a previously made NAND dump? Because it came to me already in this condition I do not have a clean NAND dump.

    Suggestion Don't allow new users to bump old posts

    Your response was much too fast to have considered the post, indicating that you are being defensive instead of actually being open to criticism or suggestion. You aren't even considering the part you are responding to, since it requires magic or scary-accurate-but-revolutionary AI or something...

    Suggestion Don't allow new users to bump old posts

    Was I not clear enough when I specifically instructed you to read my first post in this thread? I'm not surprised you missed it. Heck, you even missed your own contradiction in your previous post! You know: the one where your suggestion in the OP would also block them from posting in a...

    Suggestion Don't allow new users to bump old posts

    ...and I just told you "why not." You failed to consider several crucial scenarios and you're still doing it by framing the question this way.

    Suggestion Don't allow new users to bump old posts

    I've already explained how that is a completely incorrect assumption. Even if I hadn't you're forgetting that if the bumped topic is worth reviving then conversations will resume. If it wasn't then it will die again. This "problem" deals with itself while the OP's suggestion creates a dangerous...

    Suggestion Don't allow new users to bump old posts

    ...except that your solution would not discriminate between the two and even if it did it would stop some necessary input. What if the OP in the thread got some information that worked for him based on some prior understanding of what someone meant, but someone else bricked their console by...

    Suggestion Don't allow new users to bump old posts

    Even then, the OP isn't the only person landing there. Hopefully other people with the same question will land there (thanks, Google) and hopefully someone with the answer will put it there, regardless of the thread's age or the OP's presence/awareness.

    Suggestion Don't allow new users to bump old posts

    Sorry, but this is a horrible idea. Let me tell you why: New users often register and sign up SPECIFICALLY because they have some information that needs to be added to an old thread, whether it is an update, correction, warning, etc, the place that google sends OTHER people is exactly where that...

    Question Can't post to the relevant sub forum?

    Doubt it. Is that even a thing? I don't get a message like that when I attempt to reply to an existing thread.

    Question Can't post to the relevant sub forum?

    I don't get this message in other sub forums. I looked at the stickies and don't see anything relevant. What's going on? Basically, I wanted to share an old GBA SP disassembly tip that few people seem to know.

    Tutorial How to Get an Ambassador 3DS (For a bit cheaper than you might think)

    Just thought I'd point out that this still works for checking Ambassador status. I checked my US-purchased Ambassador 3DS and confirmed Ambassador status. I checked another random serial from a flea market and it said that the status was "Undetermined." I'm still worried that mine will break...

    Tutorial How to Get an Ambassador 3DS (For a bit cheaper than you might think)

    Anyone know what the Siras phone number retailers use for checking the purchase date? It may not be in service anymore since most retailers check electronically. I recall that it was extremely similar to Nintendo's 1-800-255-3700 number and even had the same voice as their number when I called...

    Tutorial Update EMUNAND via ROM (Current max 9.4-5)

    FWIW, this also works to update SysNAND if you use the old Gateway Omega 2.2 Launcher.dat and "update" (downgrade) your Gateway red card. It *WILL* brick if you do it with a newer Gateway launcher. You have to hold "Up" when launching Gateway mode on an SD card with no EmuNAND partition. I don't...
