Do you remember which firmware version you had on your 3ds?
(The firmware version that displays in system settings)

A CTR Transfer (decrypt9 type) could solve the problem?

Already did that and no results..

Have you made the d9 type in specific? Cause it's differente from regular CTR Transfer. The d9 mode "rebuilds" your nand, even if it's completely erased...

Cause it's the real possibility in case of no backup of NAND and deep bricks.

@TurdPooCharger can explain it better, if it would work or not. But I have unbricked a few DS using this procedure.

By the way, it seems that using latest CTR images in this procedure doesnt work, cause the script doesn't "recognize" the SHA. I had to find the specific CTR transfer mentioned in the guide, and it was not easy, cause I found only dead links. I found in a strange source though.

Joao, where can I find this guide?

Read carefully through the page here before doing anything. Be careful. One of the functions can check your nand if it's corrupt or not..

From what I’ve read and no band back up buddy it’s time for a new 3ds mine did the same thing and I had no backup and got a n3dsxl

I'm running into a similar issue myself, after months of not using my 3DS I updated the system to use online and after reboot I get nothing but a black screen. I also do not have a backup nand.

Any steps I can take in possible restoring my system?

Update Luma3DS. Just copy/ paste the latest boot.firm file into the root of the sdcard and try again.

 

[FinalMasterM]

I've done that, still black screen.

Can you boot into either Luma3DS or GodMode9? Or the recovery mode?
Also remove the sd card and try again, see if it boots into the home menu.

When I boot up holding start I'm taken to Hourglass9 v1.35

Also anytime I try to reply or quote I get an error posting, lol.

Would guess this is an A9LH payload.
Hold (Select) on power on to get the current Luma3DS version on the top of the upper screen.

Luma3ds v6.6

 

[CoolMe]

Luma3ds v6.6

Then you should update to b9s.

Sorry for the long delay in response. I had company until now. I followed the steps and all is well and working perfectly, thank you very much!
