Hey guys, I've been having this problem with my 3ds. Tried reading all the post similar to it and also posted on reddit, but to no avail. Imma go quickly with the details.
Monday my n3ds xl was perfect, just played the hell out of it and went to sleep. Tuesday it got a little wet, because of a water bottle in my backpack. It didn't get that covered in water, mostly cause I've a protective case. Now, when I turned it on, the top screen was kinda faded, as in the colors were more white-greyish, and then it turned off. Did that about 2-3 times, until the next message appeared below (the screen photo)
So I turned it off and waited til I got home. Once I got home, I took the back apart, took off the battery and the sd card, dried em well (battery had like 2-3 droplets of water) gave it some time and then tried turning it on. The system now just gave me a black screen but the blue light was on, but nothing else happened. So I read that I should just let the battery run dry, and charge it fully. And that's what I did. Now I tried to turn it on, but the blue light just stayed for about 5 secs then it goes off.
I tried putting the new luma boot.firm, but does it does the same. Also it doesnt allow me to get to the menus (by pressing START or SELECT and turning it on) This just makes the system to turn off inmediatly as in, I just press the power button, 5 secs and it goes off. If I turn it on and press either start or select it inmediatly dies. Tried Booting it with and without SD, and I don't think the water is really the issue, but can't be sure, since I didn't use it after going to sleep and before the water incident. Here's also a screencap of the root of the SD.
Anything that could help is greatly appreciated and thanks a bunch in advance.
