Hello,

Today I tried modding my 3ds. everything was going okay, I got into HomeBrew Launcher fine, and then, when installing Boot9Strap, everything seemed to be going fine, until, my console shut off. Now, when turning it on, it'll light up blue at the bottom for about 1 or 2 seconds, but, a red light pops up next to the bottom R. When taking the SD card out, and trying to turn on the console, the button instead is white. Either way, with or without SD the console will not turn on and will instead just shut off. Again, this happened after installing Boot8strap. What can I do? did I brick the machine? how do I fix it? help plz

Thank you

Make sure you have the luma3ds boot.firm file on your SD card.

So, I've done that just now and it powers on, however, this page popped up, I will put photos to show what it showed as soon as it turned on. I pressed save and exit, however, when trying to get into homebrew from the browser, it'll make another message.

You don't get into homebrew from the browser with CFW.
