Just want to note that I had @vb_encryption_vb hardmod my hard bricked 3ds as well as install A9HL for me - works great, was super quick, organized and responsive. Don't hesitate to have him deal with this for you.
That's very odd, I don't have that option on his or anyone's account. I wonder if it's because I just created my account a little bit ago? Thanks for trying to help, I'm thankful to discover I'm not a complete moron
I have what I think is a hard bricked 3ds after going through most of the Plialect guide. I'm not sure what the difference is between just a hardmod and having the a9lh installed - I thought they did the same thing. Could we discuss this as I definitely want one or the other?
