    Old 3DS XL blue light turns on and off after a couple of seconds, nothing else happens

    I tried re-seating the cables on the board again, just to be sure, but the same thing still happens. If the issue is with the cables themselves then that's very unfortunate indeed

    Old 3DS XL blue light turns on and off after a couple of seconds, nothing else happens

    This is interesting, i tried creating the config.bin (i'm using the luma version i previously had) as a blank file and of course nothing changed. But, when i used this website to create the file, the blue light stayed on for much longer! Except when i try to boot holding SELECT. Since i don't...

    Old 3DS XL blue light turns on and off after a couple of seconds, nothing else happens

    As i mentioned before: The folder is created after i try to boot the 3ds with the boot files

    Old 3DS XL blue light turns on and off after a couple of seconds, nothing else happens

    I'm pretty sure i spent 2 or 3 days trying every software solution that was suggested to me before opening it for the first time tho Also, if it was a faulty SD Card reader, would it still be able to create the luma folder inside the SD Card? That's the thing i'm most intrigued about

    Well, that sounds like something i won't be able to do :rofl2:

    Old 3DS XL blue light turns on and off after a couple of seconds, nothing else happens

    I'm pretty sure they are not upside down since otherwise it would be considerably harder to plug them. Nope, just the Luma folder. Tried putting godmode9 in the SD Card and nothing happened. Of course i cannot be 100% sure i plugged all the cables perfectly since they are really small and i'm...

    Old 3DS XL blue light turns on and off after a couple of seconds, nothing else happens

    I took it apart and took some pictures, everything seemed fine. Re-seated all cables, including the WiFi board (except the cameras cable because it was being a pain in the ass to do it and i know it works without them). Tried booting it up and still nothing, no pop sound either.

    Old 3DS XL blue light turns on and off after a couple of seconds, nothing else happens

    I plugged in the charger for a good couple of minutes and it does stay on. Also, i won't be able to take the 3DS apart right now but i'll update this with the results when i do. I should mention that the blue led did this exact same thing (shutting off abruptly) before i opened it for the first...

    Old 3DS XL blue light turns on and off after a couple of seconds, nothing else happens

    Since i can now post links, here's a screenshot of the luma folder i mentioned after trying to boot the 3ds with boot.firm and boot.3dsx only. And also a video of the issue.

    Old 3DS XL blue light turns on and off after a couple of seconds, nothing else happens

    Just tried with another SD Card and it didn't work either, this one's 256gb tho but i was able to format it to FAT32 using guiformat, don't know if that would influence in something. Also, if i try to boot it with only the boot.firm and boot.3dsx files in the SD Card, it still creates the luma...

    Old 3DS XL blue light turns on and off after a couple of seconds, nothing else happens

    Yes, it's the SD Card that came with it, i had decided to not mess with it to not corrupt my old save files and still have them when i wanted to play those games. What i mean is that even after i modded the 3ds it would still boot with this original SD Card, it just wouldn't have all the...

    Old 3DS XL blue light turns on and off after a couple of seconds, nothing else happens

    i've tried booting it with the original, unmodified SD Card and since it worked before all this i thought it would in this case, but it didn't. shouldn't it work if the issue was this specific SD Card?

    Old 3DS XL blue light turns on and off after a couple of seconds, nothing else happens

    i've tried that and it doesn't boot. just finished testing it with h2testw, all seems just fine. got the files from the guide back in it and still won't boot

    Old 3DS XL blue light turns on and off after a couple of seconds, nothing else happens

    Long story short, tried to play on my 3DS after one year after last doing it, booted just fine. When i tried to open Universal Updater the console just turned off and won't turn on again. The blue light still flashes for a second and there's no "pop" sound. Already tried (what i can remember)...
