wow...That probably took some time to type and I am truly sorry yet again(also going to wait to apologize to my parents for being selfish as they are sleeping and they work hard for me to learn and be successful in life and not be a bum)
-SUGGESTION- Stop apologizing, go chill out and think about this problem you have about not fully taking responsibility of your acts (I mean, telling yourself you do x things for other people as an excuse), but think of that alone, in a relaxed place. Then, on Friday get the 3DS, try to look into it, and only when you have more questions come back. Self shaming won't make you better, but reflecting on why you do things on your own may.

Well, this is an interesting situation; hardmoding is your answer.

@Biff627 .... Nice Ryuko Matoi theme, I'm gonna try it out x3 (My waifu)

PS~ Can you include the Loose your way Song; but, the Credits one from the last dozen episodes is still pretty good.
Ive used it since I made it :D I even have a custom boot up from A9LH! I love this theme and I actually just "updated" it a tiny bit xD
Tbh, I may change some of the bottom pics as well xD

This the disadvantage of a n3ds.
'Oh i'll leave my n3ds in sleep'
*closes n3ds*
(a few seconds later)
'OH SHIT, NOW I REMEMBER, DOING THAT HARDBRICKS!!!!!'

But wait, i did this on my 2ds, how come when i put it in sleep it didn't brick?


heeey lil bro :3


lemme tell you why.
Yall got a 2DS,not a new 3DS.

And,since back in 2.1 2DS didnt exist,the top screen was fucked up.

Even tho the 2DS got the same screen size as the first 3DS.

Which was around at the time :l

I don't see why any of this is your problem? Your friend had to be doing the hack, even if you walked him through it. How can you feel guilty if you warned him and he ignored you> I would say it's own problem at this point and just point him in the right direction. First you said you did it, and felt guilty because it wasn't yours, then you said it wasn't even you. You make absolutely no sense. This thread is all over the place.

My friend attempted the downgrade process on his own and got stuck on the 2.1.0 firmware section and he closed his new 3ds before telling after I warned him not (what can you do) he has a nand backup (thank god he listened to that) and now i was wondering is there any other way besides hardmod to restore or I can try to do something else

It doesn't matter if you vouch for him, if he doesn't send pictures of his hardmods in to the OP of the hardmod installers thread and get himself verified and added to the list then nobody will trust him.

I'm really sorry to hear about what happened about getting your 3DS bricked.

On the technical side of things, how that old firmware bricks your 3DS is actually because firmwares that are older than 8.1 only have an old 3DS variant, there is no New 3DS version of it. And because the New 3DS is different hardware, it uses different instruction sets for sleep mode, turning off the display and many other functions.

Using a firmware that is coded for old 3DS will always result in that same problem. When the device's lid is closed, the New 3DS uses the ARM9 instruction to the NATIVE_FIRM, and what it points to is a pointer that leads to an instruction that rewrites bytes in the invalid locations on the NAND, which ends up corrupting the system NAND. And that's how it's game over for your working 3DS. The only way to fix the problem, is through a hard-mod. Only attempt a hard-mod if you know what you're doing.
