Hacking New Nintendo 3ds XL Black Screen

[ProjectJoker]

I bought a New 3ds XL, when I try to start it, the blue light stays on, but nothing happens, the screens are black.
It seems as CFW is installed on it. Attached is a screenshot of whats in the SDcard.
Maybe I can upload the contents of the SDcard later.
EDIT: I cant hear sound when I boot it, also, backlight is off.
I cant boot into recovery mode or something else.

Check if the n3DSXL actually still has B9S or A9LH custom firmware installed.

• CFW: I formatted my 2ds's sd card and now it wont turn on [post #17]

If it does not have custom firmware, rehack it with ntrboot.

• [3ds.hacks.guide] ntrboot + R4i Gold 3DS Plus (recommend)
• If you have another (o/n)(2/3)DS(i)(XL/LL)(phat/lite) with working DS(i) mode, you can get instead the R4iSHDC series (shitty).

If the n3DSXL is still softbricked after rehacking it, repair the 3DS firmware with CTRTransfer (Type D9) - CTRTransfer. Carefully read and follow the Instructions.

The secret_sector.bin isn't hosted on a website. Files obtained from magnet links are downloaded using a torrent client like qBittorent or Deluge.

So now, it boots into the homemenu and not into the installer. On the 3ds is only FBI installed. What do i have to do?

See the Setup abschließen in post #7. Basically, update the homebrew apps and system update to 11.13E.

Should iI systemupdate before or after it or doesnt it matter?

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

And: In my 3ds and cia folders are lots of files. does it matter if i delete them?

Replace or update the homebrew apps first. System update last.

Most of the time, the order does not matter. The only exception is when someone has Luma3DS v9.0 or older.

• Update 11.8 - Failed to Apply 1 Firm patch(es)

You keep homebrew apps that you like or find useful. This is something you'll have to figure out on your own.

So now im in the Download-Play software, but when I attempt to start Rosalina, nothing happens. Anything I might have forgotten?

Here's a tutorial video in how to Rosalina inject Homebrew Launcher.

Ok, pressing L+Down+Select did nothing for me. I´m using version 10.1.3 of Luma if it matters. He says you can also install it with FBI?
FBI works just like normal when I open it.

The default combo for Rosalina menu is { (L)-shoulder + (DOWN) d-pad + (SELECT) }. If one of those buttons is no longer functional [typically the (L)-shoulder], you can temporarily reassign the combo using CTRTransfer (Type D9) - Remap Rosalina combo. Likewise, there's also the cheater option of using Inject HBL to Camera. This is until you learn how to manually inject homebrew launcher.

Another Issue. I cant get Luma to boot Godmode9. Either it just boots into the Chainloader but no GM9 is there

The file is placed in this directory.

Here's a CFW starter kit for reference and convenience until you're more familiar with what goes to where.
