So I have a n3dsxl which is homebrewed and the top screen was broken, the bottom left corner was filled with dead pixels so I decided to change it, I saw some videos and felt prepared and I switched it with an extra LCD screen I had for the n3dsxl after I did everything I put everything back in place but after I turned it on no matter how many times I lowered the volume it stayed on max as well as the 3d and i made sure that the slider was actually moving the volume switch and the 3d switch and still nothing so i decided to change my 3ds speakers with the spare parts i had and then when i turned it on the screens stayed on black made a popping sound after flashing a white light then turned off afterwards I reverted back to all my original pieces of my ds and now when i turn it on the blue light turns on for a moment and it stays on a black screen for a moment then the bottom screen flashes white and then shuts off i dont know what to do now all the cables are going to the right places and i made sure of it and the camera stayed intact, I also saw a video that when switching screens from TN to IPS you had to download a software or something of the sort and i asnt to sure if i had to do that with mines because the top was an IPS and i switched it with a TN screen. Any help would be great, Thank you for reading my long post.

What happens if you disconnect the top screen and try to turn it on? Do you have any pictures

This usually happens with a faulty top screen or speaker ribbon cable. I do believe the same thing happens when the speaker is damaged. I will have to open up my own 3ds to check and make sure. Take a really close look at the ribbon cables for the slightest little rip.
