Hacking 3DS won't boot (black screen but blue power light is on)

[Haniko]

Hello everyone,

I've followed Frogminer Guide and have completed everything step by step successfully, but after the finalising step 18 section VIII the DS won't switch on anymore. The blue power button is on, but both screens are and stay black (doesn't appear to be any back light coming from the screen either). When I press Power + Start, GodMode9 logo appears very briefly and the DS switches off right away (similarly for Power + Select). Does anyone know how to resolve this?

Already tried:

• Tried the black screen bug process where it requires me to boot the console with the SD card inside and taking out the cartridge & leave it untouched for 20 minutes. No luck.
• Removed the boot.firm and tried to boot. No luck.
• Removed the home ext file and tried to boot. No luck.
• I've tried to do recovery L + R + UP + A + Boot, but nothing's coming up on screen.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Try copying the SD card file over to a new SD, maybe something is wrong with your SD card.

Try different SD card.
Do you have a NAND backup? If so, restore it. Otherwise, do CTRTransfer via godmode9, decrypt9 or lazarus3ds

I am unable to access Luma and GM9 since the DS turns off instantly after booting, so I am not sure how to restore it.

I will look into getting another SD card.. do they have to be of a specific type? SDHC?

I've got a new SD card and moved the files over but it's experiencing the same thing.

Normal power on = Blue power light glowing & screen stays black
Power + Start = GM9 logo displayed for 1 second and DS crashes/turns off
Power + Shift = Luma options displayed for 1 second and DS crashes/turns off

Do you have a DS Flash cart?

Do you have a DS Flash cart?

Unfortunately I don't. I just got a regular SDHC card.

Unfortunately I don't. I just got a regular SDHC card.

Hmm I just thought that might be the problem since for some reason my flash cart stops my 3ds from booting.

I've removed whatever cartridge that was inside the DS and am trying to boot with just the SD card inside. Nothing seems to boot.
