Hacking Is it possible to reset from a hard brick?

[EmeraldB]

If there is any way possible, I'd like to know, I don't want to buy another 3ds. For some reason I can still access the luna3ds and hourglass9 menus if this helps any.

If you have a NAND backup you can restore that. Otherwise, you'll need a hardmod or a new console. What did you do to brick it anyway?

If your still able to access luna and stuff ,how is it considered a hard brick? What can't you access?

Hardmod won't help if he doesn't have NAND backup.

Yeah, that's right. I'm still half asleep.

I
When I turn the 3ds on, there is a black screen.

So how do you access Luna and hourglass9?

Exactly. Other console's NAND will not work since the firms and xorpads will be different.

If you can access hourglsss9 and luma then how is it bricked?

Hold select then press power button. If a screen pops up then your not bricked.

U can restore a NAND backup with Hourglass9.

Are you using menuhax or a9lh? And are you using emunand because it sounds that it's just emunand that's bricked

I power on the 3ds while holding select/start. Also I don't have a NAND backup.

Menuhax or A9?

A9

If you can power into Luma + hG9 you're not bricked

 

[James310]

Thing is he has no nand backup

There's nothing you can do without a nand backup.

I think you can follow these steps, but notice that may won't work since your NAND is bricked.

If your using emunand then making a new one from Sysnand will fix it, if your using Sysnand a9 then you can't do anything,why exactly don't you have a nand backup? Your forced to have one when actually doing the tutorial to getting a9

Making a CTRNAND transfer should "unbrick" it. https://github.com/Plailect/Guide/wiki/9.2.0-ctrtransfer
