Hi there please help me.
I have or better to say had an 3ds xl old on 10.2.0-28E

I just plugged in my r4i sdhc 3ds rts and i pressed A
Then nothing appears not even a black screen just the blue LED light. I waited a bit and turned off my 3ds by holding the power button (i know i shouldn't have done this). Then when i turn it on again in loads the home menu with only a few apps not showing system settings anymore.. Now each time i try to load an app or even the home menu settings the 3ds freezes..
I took out r4 and sd card. Even the battery but nothing works..
I tried to boot the recovery by holding L+R+A+Up on DPad but nothing...
Thank you.

Isn't that what what happens when the Wi-Fi card becomes loose? Might not have to do with the R4i at all.

Did the the upper bar on the top screen that shows the time/coins/etc vanish as well?

If the Wi-Fi board is indeed the problem and your warranty is gone, try looking into iFixIt, they have an image guide for disassembling the 3DS for replacing it, but it might just have became loose (or the R4i zapped it, not sure if that's possible?)

Though if you still have warranty go for it, this is kinda a common problem even to people who don't mess with this kind of stuff at all.

your R4 card is just going bonkers, happens to me a few times and sometimes when it is plug-in when the 3ds is powered on all I get is a black screen

How would he have been able to backup his nand on that firmware? He is also talking about using his 3ds for ds games(r4), so I doubt he even had a reason to backup nand.
I have an old small 3ds which i hacked for 3ds games :)
Collected all systems of the 3ds family

    As long as it's not resetera, anywhere is ok really.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    resetera is just... cancerous
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    is that Ultimate Hentai Kamen at your avatar?
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    I see you're a person of culture.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    likewise
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    It's a genuinely great manga.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    too bad it never got an anime adaption, even in the form of OVA since a tv series would be too censored for the manga's material.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    and yeah, great manga.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    no idea why it would be censored tbh, it has nothing to explicit
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    compared to most midnight anime that air in japan
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    we talk about same japanese tv that censors shit like teenage characters smoking
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    I'd rather they censor smoking than cleavage like they do in the west.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    Smoking is bad for your health, boobs are good
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    actually anime have also toned down fanservice a lot at the last 2 decades. when was the last time you saw nipples in anime that isnt hentai?
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    in quite a few, once the uncensored version releases
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    also seeing smoking at media wont make me want to smoke
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    even at "uncensored" home releases they still show no nipples with few, rare exceptions
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    It makes it seem cool, that's why smoking

    comercials were banned here in the 90s.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    even ecchi manga dont show nipples nowadays
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    I'm reading several that do atm. x'D
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    even it looks cool, i still hate smoking and i always hated smoking
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    They're seinen though.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    But yeah, it also has to do with the fact that stuff are more sexualised

    now
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    even at seinen i am reading, the only one that shows nipples sometimes is Oversized Sextet
