Hi everyone.
I recently got a second hand 2ds xl with CFW. It worked well for a day or two but I once or twice got an error page with a black screen. This morning It did not turn on. The blue light would turn on and turn off. I tried reinstalling luma (I read this online. I downloaded boot firm file and pasted it into the sd card). The device did turn on after couple of minutes but all the titles were missing and it crashed. Then, I inserted the original sd card and it turned on fine. I could play with cartridge. So, without checking it online, I reset the device to factory settings thinking it would remove cfw. It turns out no. When I insert the cfw sd card it does turn on and does not crash. Now I am afraid of following the tutorial on the internet to remove cfw, because I don't want to brick it. Please help me. It is my first ever game console. What should I do, fix the cfw or remove it somehow and reinstall cfw. Thank you!
