i finished it all a couple days ago

Oh! Easy fix then. (I hope at least lol)
So it was all working good until your formatted your sdcard?
Also, I'm assuming you are using sysNAND right?
If that's the case, you just need to drag the luma files back onto the SD card and it will boot up again.

yeah it worked fine before, im just an idiot.
and yeah thats correct.
which files are they?
would the luma files allow me to use the universal inject generator to insert fbi?
and also what decrypt 9?
sorry for all the questions, just a little new to this as should be completely clear.

  1. The luma file you need is called ARM9LOADERHAX.BIN, and is found in the LUMACFW on the github page. Place it on the root of the SD card.
  2. If you need to inject fbi into H&S you need decrypt9wip which you add to a folder called Luma>Payload and rename by adding "X_" in front of what ever decrypt9 is called so it can look like this. "X_Decrypt9wip.bin"
  3. Follow the guide instructions for fbi injection into H&S
  4. There is links for all these tools and instructions in the guide you used to install a9lh.

It's all good! I used to ask these question all the time, but now I understand quite alot about the 3DS now.
I can zip all the luma files and the payloads that can be used in conjunction with Luma for ya if you don't mind? (makes things alot easier for you)
Decrypt9 will be put in the zip as well.
As for the FBI problem, I'm gonna say you have to probably re-inject it into H&S again like you did previously in the guide.

While the guide suggest after injecting FBI into H&S so you can install another FBI (not on nand but on SD like other apps)
I would leave it part of H&S cause it can survive formats. So if you ever format or lose sd card you still have the FBI on nand. After you inject fbi again, Just select Update from the app. It should create another FBI on the home menu.

Cool then! Yes, just unzip it to the root of your SDCARD, gimme a few seconds to gather everything up.

thats not a bad idea, H&S isnt useful anyway so doing that would be quite smart

yeah thanks a lot for doing this

I doubt he needs somem of that other stuff, the latest decrypt9 can dump carts already :P
Godmode9 maybe for advance users.
If he doesn't mess with nand or something worst, He won't need to use emunand9 or hourglass9 But i guess it can't hurt to create some Nand backups ever so often.

Oh can it? That's pretty sick. I don't ever update my payloads so much since they're a bit more of a hassle.
True he doesn't need about half the payloads but I was too lazy to CTRL+D them :rofl2::rofl2:

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

i moved everything to my sd card and its still not working, thanks for trying though

Are you sure? Make sure you dragged the files out of the folder and put those files on the root of the SDCARD.
If it doesn't work, then you have a messed up SDCARD for sure.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

EDIT: Nvm, just needed to remove and reinsert my sd card :P

So it's good now?

Alrighty, cool then :)
Yes, the latest decrypt9wip can do just about everything the others can except maybe god mode but again for advance. It can dump 3DS, and NDS carts to roms. Dump 3DS to cia directly, Make nand back up and restore them all in one. Unless he worried of doing something wrong then he should only need to use decrypt9 if instructed. Anything else is pretty much not needed.
