Hacking Bricked 3DS

[Darkrai27]

A friend asked me for his old 3DS, it looks bricked, not powering on, with these files on the SD, a friend of him hacked it to him. Any idea on how could we solve it?

Put this release on your sd card (root) first. And then upgrade from a9lh to b9s. A9lh is not longer supported.

Enable "Show NAND or user string in system settings" and then press start. That is the luma config menu.

Is the switch on the sd card on the "lock" position?

Wow, it was that, I haven't even thought on that, microsds don't have that slider xD. Thank you!

Yeah, I know, I forgot about it because in Switch I don't have to deal with that
