I have an old 3ds which is on firmware 11.6.0-39 with rosalina homebrew, luma (I don't think the luma version is updated) and boot9strap installed. The problem is this, it gave me an error which is- error type: generic and it crashes and resets every time I play freeshop games which is where I got the games from and now it doesn't even turn on. I charged my 3ds to make sure it can turn on, but when I remove the sd card it boots normally but when I put it back, it doesn't turn on, sometimes it flashes the blue light once and doesn't turn on and sometimes it turns on with the blue light but with an endless black screen of death. I researched on YouTube on how to fix this and they said to use these key combinations which are: L button, R button, up, and A and it gave me the update your 3ds option to the latest firmware but I'm already on 11.6.0-39, WTF nintendo! Please help!! Comment down below so that we can fix this problem! Nintendo will not divide us!!!!

Did you do a nand back up before this happened?
I did that a long time ago but my dad just upgraded my pc from windows 10 to windows 10 pro and yeah, my pc got formated. But my sd card is not broken and it is legitly working, no virus and is not corrupted!!!

If it boots normally without the card that would indicated an issue with the actual SD card. Try replacing it and see if the problem persists
No, my sd card reads normally and I scanned it using cmd and with the command chkdsk and says it is fine! So now what?

the point is if you could reach godmode 9 you should be able to restore the nand backup, if you can't then try to get a flashcart and restore though that.
How can I boot to godmode 9???

Hold start on boot, if GM9 doesn't appear then you may need to download it and put it in the luma\payloads folder.

Try redownloading Luma and replacing boot.firm. You might need either 7.1 or 8.x depending on which B9S version you have, so if one doesn't work try the other.

you have to hold start well booting if nothing comes up you should probably get a flashcart

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    also gonna install twilight menu in my r4 flashcard
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    One thing that just occurred to me.... The sound on the 2600 sucked less back then the harsh sound we hear now is from infinitely better speakers we have now, back when the 2600 was new speakers produced a almost muffled sound, like CRTs made old graphics look slightly better.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I wonder if I could recommend that to some emulation devs that perhaps the sound could use some smoothing out to simulate those old TVs
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think a few of the early systems could benefit from that, at least up to the 8 bit generation, by the 16 bit generation I think TVs had gotten a lot better in almost every way

    i dont have an sd card adapter but I have an usb sd card adapter

    For your R4
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's old but it's the best firmware out for DS stuff
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    it says it only works for the original R4, R4i Gold (r4ids.cn), R4iDSN (r4idsn.com) and Acekard R.P.G.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    nvm it does support mine
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Just give it a try, but honestly if you have a 3DS you can play DS games without a card just off the internal SD card
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Slightly slower loading but a bit more convenient
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
