Hacking New 2DS XL wont boot up with CFW

[VeteranGamer]

Hi,

experiencing issues (possibly major issues) with the 2DS....
it has Luma v10.0.1 and is updated to 11.13.0
currently it is just flashing blue light on/off
if it does decide to try and boot I get the unable to mount CTRNand
and now if I try to initiate GodMod it some times (most of the time) get nothing...or once and a while get incorrect Payload





everything seemed fine after installing the CFW....
everything was working as it should
I was in the process of installing some cia via FBI which seem to be working (the games loaded fine and were playable)

then...
a couple of games to crash (some were on first start)
and I got an exception error ARM11



after this I disabled the ARM11 alert (power on holding Select)

and it all seem OK
then the games just started to freeze (had to hold power button to turn off)

got an odd unable to mount CTRnand alert
but if i left the system for a bit, it would all work....
then the home screen would start to freeze

and unable able to mount CTRnand became more and more

I then tried to do a CTRtransfer
which didnt go as it should.....

download the CTRtransfer 11.5.0

I was able to transfer SysNAND, this worked without any issue....
but when I got to CTRTransfer ticket copy I was presented with....

could not find ticket backup
something has gone wrong with your CTRtransfer


and now since then.....
flashing blue light to power on/off (flashes for a second and goes out)
I've tried various button combo....
and all that will bring up is either
a black screen with blue light on
or
unable to mount CTRnand

Godmod also doesnt work


I've checked the SD card with h2testw
I've formatted the SD card multiple times
I've also tried other SD cards (that have been tested and formatted)


I have a backup of sysnand (this was done when installing Luma for the first time)
I also have a backup of the SD card straight after the CFW was installed (before any games were added or errors)


any help or assistance wil be greatly appriciated


Thank you



NB: I did try to upload some images but I think being new this is restricted

Did you happen to have A9LH installed before this?

 

[VeteranGamer]

I would have to say no to that.....

I followed the instructions posted by P3NCE on youtube

Have you tried booting your 3DS without a SD card and trying Godmode9 Luma3DS settings or Recovery mode ?

 

[VeteranGamer]

I have tried booting it up without the SD card inserted....
still get the same results...


what is the recovery mode for the New 2DS XL?

To enter recovery mode hold A+R+L+Up(DPad) while booting your 3DS

Edit: Sorry that was not very descriptive recovery mode is a way to update your system when all else has failed it can recover lost system data as well it is not a guaranteed fix but it is worth a try

 

[VeteranGamer]

I tried that....
both with the SD card inserted and without


just get a flashing blue light on/off
and nothing


i'm kinda feeling
the New 2DS XL is bricked.....

what is the best way to bring it back from the dead (or what seems like it)

@VeteranGamer, in case your n2DSXL is still softbricked and you read this reply later, check back with me sometime after the later half of January 2020. I got something in store that might help fix that brick.
