Hacking New 3ds xl with sound but no video

[Mexicalipc]

Hello, I have a n3dsxl with sound but no video, I purchased it this way so I don't know how it got to this point. This is what I have done.

1. Updated to 11.4 using Nintendo's recovery menu (L, R, up, A) and it updated successfully. Screens worked on the recovery menu but when I tried to start with normal booting it just gives me sound.

2. Install b9s via hardmod. I successfully installed b9s and can run recovery mode, even luma configuration screen loads but after that I keep getting sound with black screen.

3. Run ctrnand 9.2 via recovery using decrypt9 and everything seem to installed correctly but again I keep getting sound with no video

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Sadly that sounds like a hardware issue.

Even if it loads Nintendo's default recovery mode? Both screens look perfect, touchscreen works and it evens connect to the Wi-Fi. :/

If ctrtransfer doesn't help then there's not much else you can do... It can't be a software issue because ctrtransfer completely replaces the 3DS software.

Maybe the brightness level corrupted and it's set to 0, (however, it should have been set back to normal with the ctrtransfer). Anyway, since it has sound, try changing the brightness level from the home menu using the sound as a guide.

EDIT: You can also check if that's the issue by pointing an strong light towards the screen, and you will see a shadow of the image.

Thank you all for your help. I guess I will just save it there just in case something comes out in the future.

Have you tried what I said?

Yes bro, no video at all, screens are completely off. Even when it runs Luma for the first time it asks you for the screen brightness and I have tried every setting with no luck. I think is more of a nand issue. Maybe if there is a way of using another n3dsxl nand in the future that might fix the issue

Luma brightness is a completely different thing as it doesn't change how the system brightness works afterwards. If you already tried to go to the home menu brightness selector without success, then it can be several other things:
1. It may be possible that you have a flashcard inserted which may prevent the home menu to launch. (Unlikely as you said you bought it that way)
2. Something in your home menu is corrupted, try renaming the "Nintendo 3DS" folder in your SD card to "Nintendo 3DS old" and see what happens.

In any of the cases, it's most likely not a problem with the NAND, as the recovery mode data is stored in the nand as well.
Actually, you haven't told us if you can hear the cursor when moving it or not in the home menu, or just the background music (first case it's a problem with the screen, second case it's a problem with the home menu crashing).

this issue was discussed in another theard , it's probably related to the camera not working (maybe the ribbon or the camera itself damaged)
read this theard , it may help you:
