Hi guys so i got myself a 3ds (not the n3ds) and find myself that its a Custom Firmware 3Ds. Any ideas to get it back to Original Firmware? Cause I can't access online on almost anything especially my eshop. Already check all of the things inside the SD card and without the SD card my ds won't turn on, the blue light indicator just turn on and slowly faded off. The SD card got those A9LH, FBI, CIA, arm9loaderhax, etc. which i find very confusing! Any kind of help will do..


P.s: I have no idea what are those files and data do, not even a slightest..

A CFW 3DS can use online features with no problem in theory. Except maybe if it's a region-changed 3DS or if any other "weird stuff" happened on it, but the problem isn't the CFW.

What error do you get when you try to go to the eshop? Does fhe same error happens when you go to your friends list? Where did you buy it?
 
You don't need to remove CFW. In fact, if your internet problems are because you bought a banned 3DS, you're definitely going to want to keep CFW so you can unban yourself.

What error messages do you get when you try to get online? The problem could also be a DNS of the problem is just eShop.

I strongly suggest keeping the hacks. As others have already said, hacks don't prevent you from going online. Something else has to be the issue with that. If you are dead-set on removing a9lh for whatever reason, here's what you can do:

1) Download safea9lhinstaller here: https://github.com/AuroraWright/SafeA9LHInstaller/releases/tag/v2.6.7
2) Open your sd card on your PC
3) Rename safea9lhinstaller.bin to down_safea9lhinstaller.bin and put it on the sd card in this location: sd:/luma/payloads/down_safea9lhinstaller.bin
4) Put the SD card back into the 3ds and hold down on the d-pad BEFORE pressing the power button, and keep it held until you see safea9lhinstaller boot up.
5) Press start to uninstall a9lh.
6) Remove all files on the sd card besides the folders "Nintendo 3DS" and "DCIM."

Seriously though, please, PLEASE reconsider. A9lh can do everything an un-hacked 3ds can do and more. I'm 100% sure that you not being able to get online has NOTHING to do with a9lh. Trust me, take the time to understand a9lh and you will LOVE it.

EDIT: Would also like to mention that uninstalling a9lh actually has a very small chance to brick your 3DS. Even more reason you should keep the hacks.

Sorry guys i need to wait 200 sec. For every post, sorry for late reply. Btw, the error code is 007-2001. It said an error has occured. Please try again later. If the problem presists, please make a note of the error code and cisit support.nintendo.com.

Maybe he would be able to use the eshop again if he was to revert the region-swapping?
The problem is... which region was it before the change

The CFW you're using has some patches that let you play JAP,EUR and USA games.
