    I'd find it strange if the battery suddenly stops working, when it was working fine the day before... I only took it out, reseated a connector, (with no power anywhere), and put it back in...

    Hardware New 3DS (non-XL) Only Turns on With Charger

    Hello, I am having an issue with my N3DS. It only turns on if the power cord is plugged in, and instantly shuts off when either the battery (which is normal) or the power cord (not normal) is removed. I checked the battery voltage and it is at a solid 4V, so I know that it is fully charged and...

    Hardware N3DS (non-XL) Speakers Not Working

    Hello, I am having an issue with an N3DS XL. Everything works fine, but the speakers intermittently cut off if any sort of pressure is exerted on the back of the system. I don't think the volume slider is defective, because the headphone jack works perfectly and flawlessly. It's just the...

    Hello, I'm having a problem with a 2DS. About 25% of its Touch Screen's surface area is non-responsive, even after calibration.

    Hardware n3DS (non-XL) Volume Cuts Off Intermittently

    Hello, I have recently replaced the motherboard in a n3DS (non-XL), and there's only one problem I have left to deal with: the sound cuts off if the bottom of the system has any minimal pressure exerted onto it. This can be fixed by simply tapping the n3DS on a desk, and then the sound will...

    The most important question I have that needs to get answered is: Is there any way to decrypt the NAND dump, other than or with the files I have? There is no way to revive the motherboard; Fixing it is out of the question.

    Hardware Swapping n3DS XL's CPU and NAND to New Board

    Yes, I also have a NAND backup in addition to those files. However, I do not have the XORpad referred in the guide. When I attempted to XOR the FAT16 extracted portion of the encrypted NAND dump, the XOR'ed FAT16 portion wouldn't mount because it is corrupt... Is there an alternative or another...

    [POLL] Who are/would you vote for United States President?

    FYI: It has been scientifically proven that polls aren't good at predicting who will win the elections. For example, during the Brexit referendum, most people voted with their "gut instincts" to leave the E.U., even though most of the "Leave" people regretted their decision later on... In past...
