Sadly I can't enter recovery mode. My 3ds is hard bricked. To answer this question in advance if it's possibly brought up, I haven't used any 3rd party hardware on my 3ds.
Edit: WOW! Would you look at that! I was messing around in Citra trying to find a ways to create a NAND from my emuNAND...
I think instead of backing it up, I dumped my sysNAND into emuNAND using menuhax? I'm not even sure if I'm recalling this correctly or citing it wrong. There was something I had done to format my sd card entirely for the emuNAND. I have checked my files and I don't have NAND.bin, just the emuNAND.
OH! I actually have a backed up copy of my nand from before my 3ds bricked..I think? EmuNand9 with both the 3dsx/smdh file extensions are the backup files needed?
I'm new here so sorry if I'm not posting in the correct thread. I recently bricked my 3ds system due to a blunder on my part, and was wondering if anyone here offers services for bricked 3ds repair in the US?
I like that games can be fixed after the fact, hate that it's being abused via beta tests... And DLC... I was a 7800 owner back in the day and loved Impossible Mission, turns out I couldn't beat it because it was actually impossible lol
