@KleinesSinchen danke für die antwort, aber wenn ich wie sie in den letzten Zeilen sagen alles neu machen soll, geht es nicht weil ich die dateien brauche, ohne diese bootet es nicht...

Don't post in a foreign language without translation.

@KleinesSinchen thank you for the answers, but if I have to do everything new as they say in the last lines, it doesn't work because I need the date, without it it won't boot ...

OK. Let's be patient here for a sec.
You cannot turn on the 3DS without the SD card inside, right?
Just as it happens on the video you uploaded.

@E1ite007 Yes exactly

 

[E1ite007]

OK.
What happens when you try to turn on with the Start button pressed when the SD card is inside the console? What about when you try with the Select button pressed also with the SD card inside the console?

@E1ite007 when i press the key combination with the sd card, the console boots noral, even though god mod is on the sd card. Without sd crad nothing happens.

Could you show us via a screenshot how the SD card root folder is looking?
Let's see if everything is onto the correct folder.

Yeah... I see the problem now.
Try to put the latest Luma3DS onto the SD card: https://github.com/LumaTeam/Luma3DS/releases/latest
If it brings you an error, come back for more instructions.

@E1ite007 simply all files in the root directory ??

Yes. And try to start the console without the SD card.
Any kind of result you get, make sure to post it here.

@E1ite007 I inserted the files and started normally, then without an SD, but it still didn't work ....

No, that isn't the whole thing... hold on...
Try to start now with the Select button pressed WITH THE SD CARD.

@E1ite007 I hold down start and power, but nothing happens ..

Let's see the root of your SD card.

Have you ever followed this guide: https://3ds.hacks.guide/de_DE/a9lh-to-b9s?
According to the files on your SD, you still have A9LH, and you've never updated to boot9strap.
If you haven't done this, follow the guide.

@E1ite007 I followed the instructions and did everything ...

Jesus christ, if I understand this problem correctly, it takes about 5 minutes to solve.
Step 1: Look up the Luma3ds Updator.
Step 2: Download the cia. Put it on your sd card.
Step 3: Install it on your console.
Step 4: Unwrap and open it.
Step 5: Press A on "Install stable version".
Step 6: Press A + X to enable downloading the boot.firm onto your CTR-NAND. This lets you boot without the sd card inserted.
Step 7: Wait a bit.
Step 8: Press START to reboot.
Step 9: You're done.

The problem isn't if OP cannot install boot.firm to NAND, but he cannot open the chainloader.
My guess is, he bought this 3DS already pre-modded, or he just forgot everything he did in 2016 to install CFW and hasn't touched the console since.
