3DS initial set-up

[rerjoi]

So I just deleted all my Homebrew stuff and I completely resetted my 3ds. After I turned on the 3DS the 3DS couldn't detect that the slider was up to the max. Is there a way I can fix or bypass this step?

This is never the solution to any particular problem. Why did you do that?

There's a thing called 2DSaver that was used in the distant past when problems like this emerged. You'll need a Cubic Ninja cart, an OoT3D cart (and some way to write specific data to it), or an ntrboot flashcart - assuming you really did remove boot9strap.

Thanks for that and I only really removed Homebrew because every Homebrew app was deleted and I only could access the Luma menu and the godmode menu when I pressed the start / select button while starting. Maybe this wasn't the right solution but I can't change it now.

Everytime someone says they removed cfw it will be mentioned that removing cfw is almost never the solution to the problem. It's not to make you feel bad, it's to make future readers aware in case they are thinking of removing it.

What exactly did you do to remove it?

Did you follow this guide?

Ok great, and do you have access to an ntrboot card, or r4 that can be used as one?

Nope I don't have a ntrboot card or r4 sadly. But the 3ds also has a problem of not booting on constantly, It sometimes work and sometimes not. I think that has something to do with my sibling, who has opened the case and stuff, because they also had that problem.

That is a shame, its worth picking one up if you can. Have you any idea what your sibling did inside there?

Not really, he just said to me that he unscrewed the cover and wanted to unscrew the cover, but couldn't because the screws were too tiny. Maybe I will consider buying one later, but rn I don't really need it that much because I have another one.

I just wondered if he damaged something inside while he was in there, but it sounds like he didn't get in there.

Yeah it's the kind of thing you don't really need often, but it is a pretty valuable tool to have so definitely worth considering in the long run.
