I've sent my Japanese Pokemon limited edition clear red 2DS to hundshamer around the end of March,
and haven't heard back from him since.. June.

It wasn't even for a port mod; it was simply to reflash over the nand.
He previously told me its done, just that he ran out of cash to send it back (even though I prepaid him).

I've got his address.
I got friends who live in US (albeit not the same area, but maybe they'll be happy to take a roadtrip?)

What can be done at this point?

Also to all his previous customers,
such as @frostb1ten @Darkyose @Bull Moose 2016 @MassExplosion213

what address did he use to send back your device, you sure its working?

Sorry about your luck dudes! Mean while my turn around time is 7 to 10 days from the time you ship. Just ask around.

Right now he isn't being a friend to the rest of us.
Would finding the cops help?

Given he's a treasured friend,
Any way you can get in contact with him?

Yeah certainly bad luck.
I waited and waited and waited.

In June he said he was done, but ran out of cash, but I didn't mind paying for the shipping again.

He advised me to do via shipping label,
But the Web wouldn't allow me to proceed if I didn't have a US credit card.

And he said he "would have the funds by next week", and went dark again since.

He's had activity yet didn't even reply messages.

Frustration.

I didn't mind waiting, but radio silence when there has been activity,
And everyone else being in the dark is bad.

Would gbatemp admins be able to see his IP,
And check if he's been using a different account?

And also the emails he used for PayPal.

We actually don't talk after he sent my 3ds back...
I was talking about another friend of mine IRL

Wait so he gave you the address of another friend, which is your friend IRL??

Edit:
From his PayPal email (which isn't him),
I was told he went on vacation and hasn't heard back from him since..

I may have found another way to find him

That's some complicated relationship there.

I was referring to the address he shipped from ><


I wish I have magic too.

Too bad my best resource is.. The interwebs.

I believe I found some of his details,
But whether I can get a response is another story.

@vb_encryption_vb

I'm going and try to do this myself, but just in case can you PM the cost of hard mod? I'm in GA, if it makes any difference.

If you have zero soldering skills don't attempt, I've had to turn enough people down and tell them to buy new consoles because they "thought" they could do it.

I've been soldering for a while. This is a cross post from the mod thread...Here is a before (background) and after (foreground) pic of soldering the wires in the OP to some pretty tight points (less than 1/32" gap between adjacent pads) on the back side of a Naze32 board. The flux I use leaves a little bit of black residue. Is this job good enough to do the 3ds?<br /><br />

You're fine. I'm sure you can do it. Also, if you're just gonna follow Plailect's guide consider a temporary hardmod so you don't have to make a hole in your 3ds.
