Hiii I actually have a problem that I need help with, so I was playing a game on my new 2ds and paused it. When I returned the game had frozen and so I turned off the console, when booting it back up im greeted by just a black screen, and the lights at the bottom still light up. I can access the Luma3ds menu with the L,R, D-pad down, A, and select. I tried rebooting the console but I just get jumbled text. Any help??

Do you have a NAND backup you can restore?

A NAND backup should have been the very first thing you did once B9S was installed.

I recommend performing a CTRTransfer instead.

I know, but the sd card i used didnt have enough space required but i thought it had enough and i was wrong. So, I was going to buy one with a bigger size this weekend to do that. Also, the guide says version 11.5.0 but mine is on 11.13.0, and I used the browserhax method if that’s important.

If you don't have the ability to make a NAND backup, for whatever reason, you should not hack your 3DS until that changes.

Please follow the CTRTransfer guide above and see if that fixes your problem.

Alternatively, what happens when you boot your system without an SD card?

It is still the same thing, but now that I thought about it. I remember my O3ds was homebrewed and I believe i made a NAND Backup for it. Is there any way to use files from that NAND to fix it?

No, you need to perform a CTRTransfer. Your NAND backup from your other system is system-specific. Do not restore it to a different system.

Ok I will, and it will work with an N2ds on 11.13.0 right? Cause I read the guide and it specified 11.5.0 version.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
