    So one day my 3ds stopped working. I taught it was a bad speaker changed it. Nothing changed.

    Formated my 64gb micro SD card. Yet nothing

    Was running on a homebrew.

    Try putting the latest Luma boot files on the SD card: https://github.com/LumaTeam/Luma3DS/releases
    If that still does not work, try using a different SD card, the card you are currently using could be broken.
    Does the 3DS make any popping sound in the speakers when the blue light turns off? If it does, it's most likely a different hardware issue.

    Press the start button on the configuration screen, it should boot into the normal 3DS system after that.

    Thos happened to me awhile ago. I had a backup of my sd card already. I reformatted the sd card and placed the files back on it worked after that.
