Homebrew “An exception occurred"

[Bella Lawrence]

Yesterday I started updating my a9lh to b9s and got past section 3 where your suppose to configure luma, which I did. Problem is when I reboot I get the error you see below. I'm on o3ds sys 11.2 (which was banned due to Pkm SM) that was running luma cfw + a9lh. Anyone know what to do?

 

[XLuma]

It is an arm11 error... can you boot your 3ds with the chainloader ? So you could restore to stock 3ds

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Start(hold)+power

Would I lose anything by doing this?

 

[XLuma]

By restoring? Well you will restore to a stock 3ds so you will loose everything, just like if you buyed a new 3ds

So I should backup the SD card I'm assuming?

 

[XLuma]

Just in case, yes backup your sd, but don’t erase the sd card before restoring (not a good idea) if you have a nand backup, use decrypt 9 to restore nand without cfw

Btw, I'm currently at school right now so I can't actually do this at the moment but I'll tell you when I actually can. Also my nand backup is very very old (rxtools days) so I'll just do option one, will I not be able to get back my current setup after this?

What do you mean by « current setup » ?

you stated

and got past section 3 where your suppose to configure luma, which I did. Problem is when I reboot I get the error you see below.

so the problem seems to be with your luma settings so before you get all drastic you should . . .
Try resetting Luma’s config and fix options

1. Delete /luma/config.bin from your SD card (dont delete it untill you copy it to your pc . . . just in case) reinsert the sd card and boot up
2. Set your options when it boots

 

[Greymane]

This error can happen if you use the wrong button(combination) to get into sys/emunands, delete your luma config and start the console.
If it is because of this then that should have solved it.

Only if you want to go directly into emunand.
This option does come with a button combo, for if you want to go into sysnand from what i remember.

What does disable ARM11 exception handlers do? Should i try that?

 

[Greymane]

That simply disables the errors given by the arm11 chip which is mostly for debugging.
It can help in some cases though to disable it.(mostly in games/applications)
But that depends on the specific error.

Oh okay, so what should i try now? Did you want pictures of anything specific?

Since i cant look through the ether, have you already deleted the config and kept the settings as the are?
So no clicking except for the start button to save the settings, to see if it will go into sysnand?

can you boot normally without the sd card?

Now that you say it, if he had the file for a9hl(not a9hl itself) installed on his 3ds for sd'less boot.
Then if that file is still in there it might mess stuff up.
