Ok, so lately I had problems with a game things weren't working so I was going to delete it. I went to system settings to delete it but I couldn't find it, what I did find was a file that had a question mark and 0 mb on it. I thought it strange but I was like maybe it's the game I was trying to delete. So I delete it, it says something like cant delete so I try again. I delete it and i get out of system settings when I realize that all the 3ds games are gone and only games that are ds downloaded from forwarded were there plus twilight menu. I took out the SD card and put it back in. I did basic stuff and the problem was not fixed. The thing is In system settings my games still appear there, like I could delete them if I want. The other thing is I don't know much about modded consoles, I bought it from someone a while ago. So I'm really confused. I appreciate any help I can have.

Do you have wifi on your 3ds if so download this QR code with FBI its right next to download universal-updater.cia then download faketik with universal updater.
Fbi is also gone, they only thing that's there is the original apps the 3ds comes with and some ds games that were used with forwarder. So fbi, universal updater or hshop is all gone.
 
Do you have FBI on your homebrew launcher if so then you can access it through the rosalina menu if not you will need a PC.

Ok so I'm in universal updater, how do I download those fake ticks you say. The main problem is have is that i don't have a computer.Thanks you so much.
 
Its an homebrew app called download it and run it.
I downloaded it and ran it through homebrew and it said no missing tickets. I also just got some additional information, if I launch the games through fbi I can play them and all save data is there. Also I was getting out of the game but when I pressed home it said "an error occurred (ErrDisp) The SD card was removed . Press and button to reboot." Even though I did not take it out. As soon as I press any button it turns black and when I press home it goes back to the home screen just like normal.

Maybe your SD card has errors you might need to do CTR transfer to fix it it will fix it for sure but i think you need a PC.

Ok thank you very much I'll see what i can do. I appreciate your help. So you would transfer everything from the original SD to a a new SD card and still use the same console?

Your sd card might be corrupted if thats the case then you will need to format it again and setup everything from scratch copying corrupt files from your sd to a new sd wont fix your problem.
 
If your SD card is corrupted, standard procedure is to copy as much as you can off the card with Roadkil's Unstoppable Copier. Then, get a new card, format it as FAT32, test the empty card with h2testw (just to be sure), and copy everything back to the new card.

Your data should still be fine if Roadkil's Unstoppable Copier doesn't report any errors during the copy process.

You realize CTRTransfer has nothing to do with the SD card, right?

Yes i was thinking it might be bricked.
 
The OP is booting the console and looking at stuff in System Settings. How the heck would you consider that "bricked"!?
Yeah the games and stuff are still in system settings, i was thinking on doing a sd card transfer by a modder.
