Hacking help unbricking new 3dsxl wih ntrboot

[Kubas_inko]

Edit


I flashed it with another 3ds of mine that's hacked. It's an aqua old3ds. The New 3DS XL and Pink are unhacked.

Ok. Another suggestion. Don't put anything on SD (remove SD form console). Make sure your magnet can put your console to sleep and try booting your hacked 3ds. It should boot to Godmode9 but from flashcart. And you shouldn't be able to access SYSNAND CTRNAND.
EDIT: Maybe on new Godmode9 they edited it, so that it can access CTRNAND even from flashcart, so I am uploading older one that does not have access for 100% (at least on any console I tried it on)

Is it one I need to flash to the cart?

Edit: Btw, I appreciate you taking the time to try and help me out with my predicament. It's just so mind boggling that nothing is working.

Yes. I added the files to my last post. One of them is godmode9 and another is manager than works like luma payloader

Alrighty, I'll give it a try, but I think I have a good idea as to why it's not working from your 2nd to last post. The New 3DS XL isn't even able to go into sleep mode. I think that might sum the reason why none of this has been working.

How can you know it can't for to sleep mode? It can have broken sensor, but you first try stronger magnet. Where are you putting your magnet?

I'm not sure if it has a broken sensor, it just doesn't do a slow fading glow is all. Plus, I've tried different and more powerful magnets. I even have one that I rest next to the working 3ds' and it makes them all go into sleep mode without fail.

Slow fading blue light? Only when you are booting via ntrboothax or even without it?

 

[Derpncheez]

Yeah, the slow fading glow is the sign of a new 3ds in sleep mode, and the borked one isn't doing that at all with a magnet applied or not.

But if you don't put anything in and on your n3dsxl does the LED also faid?
Edit: probably yes, because your 3ds is bricked. When did you actually bricked it? Maybe you can still boot to luma with a9lh and supported luma

It doesn't fade/glow with or without anything in the system, or with/without a magnet. I've tried so many combinations to no avail. How would I go about trying Luma with Al9H? I might just try doing a hardmod in all honesty.

So if you push power button, does it do anything?
EDIT: have I already suggested recovery mode?
And yet another suggestion. Try the B9S manager (I posted it like 3 answers earlier) and make luma folder on root and then payloads in that luma folder (/luma/payloads). Put any .firm file in there and put godmode9.firm on root and rename it to boot.firm. Try boot any 3ds via ntrboot method. If it loads special menu, you are booting it correctly. If it boots godmode9, you are booting it wrong. This is the ultimate test

Yeah, it just turns on with black screens and a constant blue power light. I tried recovery mode probably a dozen times at first, but got nothing.
I'm trying the B9S Manager, but I think I'm doing it wrong, since I can't get it either special menu or godmode9. I'm supposed to flash B9S Manager to the cart, right?

yes. flash it the cart. I will post some pics how it looks when booted right

 

[Derpncheez]

Ok, I guess I'm booting it wrong, then. It went to godmode9. Do I just have a dud of a flashcart?

Edit: I tried fixing it around to see if I messed something up, and now the unhacked 3DS turns itself off with trying to boot into ntr. It still functions normally without holding the buttons and magnet, though

 

[Kubas_inko]

This is how it looks when flashing:

This is how it looks when flashed and booted correctly:

This is how it looks when booted incorrectly (if you have already hacked system):

What you should do:
1. Revert your flashcart to stock (so you can see it on homescreen).
2. Boot into NTRBootFlasher -> flash "special menu" (attachment)
3. Try and boot from flashcart.

I'm not able to get it to boot into that 2nd photo. I just think my cart is borked somehow, since I've flashed it with several different things and they all seem to flash fine. Unless the flasher itself is a little borked? Though, wouldn't that have rendered the flash cart useless? It still functions normally after restoring it to stock kernel.

Forget about this.
Try newer NTRBootFlasher maybe. what card do you have? Pics please

Here's a photo of the cart. I got it from that nds-card site. I'll try finding a newer flasher, though, I thought I grabbed the newest one.

BTW, this is how Godmode9 NTR looks like (no SYSNAD CTRNAND option here):

Same as mine. So my last suggestion (again ). Put everything in "old SD root.rar" to root of your current SD (overwrite to all, you can check that is nothing dangerous). Put everything in "new SD root.rar" to root of you new SD (which is used to boot via NTRBootHax, your card should be formated to fat32). Go again to NTRBootFlasher (now it should be called this way) and reflash it again . And try it again.
