Hacking Luma3DS - Noob-proof 3DS Custom Firmware

Thank you again, I've uninstalled menuhax via the HBL. Now when I hold L it gives the garbled screen on top then gives me "an error has occured. Hold down the POWER button to turn off the power" screen. I'm wondering if there is more on my sysnand I need to remove like menuhax was.

just change your themes to basic one. this will fully remove you inastalled themehax.

Try changing your Sysnand theme.

Changing Theme worked! I was able to change to blue then back to no theme original white one again and now everything works. Thanks all

Try changing your Sysnand theme.

I have this issue as well, and I don't think it has to do with MenuHax. Removing the theme does nothing for me, it is the same error message a softbrick would display for me (I may or may not have intentionally softbricked more than once...). EDIT: shhhhhhhhhhhh Skater4599 with your fixed issues...

Everything other than that works fantastically for me, and I am very glad I can ignore everything and just use my N3DS as if nothing on it was modified. The ability to hide all the random boot menus or button presses and to just boot to emuNAND every time is great.

If you're using the latest version of A9LH (and AuReiNAND), then yes.

Yeah I am.. Weird that it didn't work for me.. Let me try another one and see if it was just a problem with that splash.bin

Do I have to compile A9LH again in order to get the latest version?

You can use dark samus' updater.

Thanks! Where can I get it?

Wait, how do I know what the "latest version of A9lh" is? I have the one from here but I noticed that it's been updated a couple of days ago:
https://github.com/capito27/arm9loaderhax

1- Is this what I should be looking at? or is there another source that I should be looking at?
2- Once I compile my otp with the latest source again, do I simply just run the new 3dsx again (installing a9lh over a9lh?) Or is there something else I should be doing?

How does a9lhx and aureinand compare to regular reinand booting via menuhax on a new 3ds?

What are the main advantages?

Way faster boot time, 100% boot rate, and you can update sysNAND if you want to.

So im stuck on a certain step on the guide to swap emunand to sysnand around, and thus decided to just undo all the steps i did. So i loaded Decrypt9 and decided to restore my sys and emu nands as i was under the impression THAT would undo everything i had done in try to swap the nands around. But after restoring both nand when i boot my 3ds it seem just to be loading sysnand and none of the games i had installed are showing and the 3ds home screen is just like when you do a system restore

Any ideas whats happened here, and how i can get back to the state my n3ds was before i attempted this guide??

That means A9LH was removed. Reinstall it.

So the updater works even if I compiled using capito27's source? Just to clarify.

Yes, since it's only updating the file that enables screen init.

10 seconds boot to emunand instead of 24 seconds, and i think you can always restore emunand and sysnand even if you update them to latest because you can run decrypt before those get loaded.

oh and future things that will make it even more awesome

Thanks!!!, that worked a treat!!

So if there a more straigh forward guide to follow for swapping nands?, as i just couldnt boot into CFW after i had formatted the sysnand with tinyformat??
