Hacking Homebrew Can i fix my 3ds?

[RaymondDecker]

So I have had a hacked nintendo 2ds xl and I was messing around in godmode9 and was doing stuff with home menu cia. Now when I try to start up the console I get the error in the picture below. I can still boot into godmode9 and luma 3ds config. Am I bricked? If not how can I fix this

You may have broke something with the home menu since you messed around with it. Do you have a NAND backup?

Maybe but would I lose all of my hacked stuff

What were you modifying of the Home Menu? What did you wanted to achieve?

Am I bricked?

Ugh, people throw around that word so much that it's lost all meaning. A brick is something that sits around completely unresponsive! How can you possibly call something a "brick" if you can still boot into luma config and godmode9?!

Even if you did, wouldn't that be preferable compared to never being able to boot again..?

A CTRTransfer would probably be a good idea, but it would also indeed be helpful to provide some more details regarding exactly what you were trying to accomplish.

Well, that doesn't tell us anything that we didn't already know.
Try using the Recovery Mode to reinstall the firmware. Turn on the console while you press the following buttons: A+R+L+Up(DPad).
If that doesn't work, come back to check how you could retrieve your saves or something, before the CTRTransfer.

Isn't preserving your saves the whole point to a CTRTransfer..?

But I agree, Recovery Mode is a good idea.
