I was in the middle of attempting to install rxtools and it wasn't working, after 20 minutes of a frozen screen I turned it off, it won't turn on now. I have my nand backed up and all that how will I use it if needed.
Homebrew Is my 2ds bricked?

I have pressed the power button/ held it in a lot of times so I doubt it
--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------
tried booting with and without sd card, and it does charge ect.
Yes but if you're in sleep mode, then even if you press the power button it'll only show the blue led, but it won't init the screens
I mean this button for sleep mode:
no blue led the is a 2ds though I can get the orange led for charging to show though
Err I am stupid and wrong in everyway possible Was in sleep mode damn 2ds I will give you an internet forgive my ignorance great one.
No problem, thanks for the Internet, the only thing important now is that you solved
do you know how long rxtools should take to install? I think either my key is invalid or the firmware isn't working but I want try a few more times to make sureNo problem, thanks for the Internet, the only thing important now is that you solved
Yup at first the firmware I got didn't work (it had a different file name than firmware) so after that I tried renaming it firmware.bin and now it seems like it is working but is aking insanely long time
it should only take a few seconds, not more than a minute.
my first few times trying to install rxtools it also took forever and kept having to reinstall data so i switched to a new version
Hmm How to get this then is link to a link legal or link to a google search that happens to have the file legal
you get your firmware files by using the firm.py executable that comes with rxtools (you need to install python though)
newer versions download a bunch or randomly named 25158041587485 files that all belong in a folder named firm or firmware in the rxtools folder

yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done -

TwoSpikedHands:
I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer

@
TwoSpikedHands:
Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?

@TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one -
@
Sicklyboy:
I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version

TwoSpikedHands:
@Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!

@
TwoSpikedHands:
I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though

@
The Real Jdbye:
@TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
-
@
The Real Jdbye:
and realistically they wouldn't
be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves -
