First off: I'm extremely new to this site. I just made an account here because I've been searching around forever looking for a fix and have gotten nowhere. Somebody recommended that i posted it on here so here I am.
Hello. I've got a New 3DS XL that wont boot up correctly. it was running GM9/ Luma3ds and had some games downloaded and installed with FBI. After a while I began to see weird visual glitches on my system, if I opened the lid or pressed the home button on a game the screen would show weird glitched out lines for a split second, if I was running a DS game or DSiWare and decided to press the home button the box asking me if I was sure would flicker a little bit. After a while I'd sometimes open the lid and one of the screens would be fully blue and not work until I reset my system. The final nail in the coffin was when i was playing New Super Mario bros on TWiLightMenu. I closed the lid and left the system on. When I came back to it later and turned it on, whatever was meant to be on both screens was tilted at a 15 degree angle. If I closed and reopened it it just got worse until it eventually stopped. when i pressed the home button (I think) the system just turned itself off. now when I turn it on nothing happens, I can still access the GM9 menu if i hold start and the Luma config if I hold select but nothing happens past that point. I'm just assuming that the home menu is refusing to boot up or something like that. Does anybody have any idea as to what I should do? I've tried updating the nand but that made it worse (would not even launch the GM9, luckily I backed up my SD card). but that's just about the most high tech thing I've done. other than that I've tried more basic things like turning it on, removing that battery, and removing the SD card. Any new ideas would be appreciated, I'm not giving up on my console just yet.
