Hardware Unusual problem with controls on system menu

[MarkDarkness]

Hey everyone, a really stange issue just happened out of nowhere.

My setup is: O3DS with 9.2 on sysNAND, then MenuHax>Homebrew Launcher>CakesFW>emuNAND

In-game one moment the touch screen became somewhat decalibrated, the next it stopped accepting input. I thought it was a smaller issue, seeing as everything else was working fine, including its display.

On exiting to the system menu in emuNAND, the touchscreen still didn't respond, but the cross/analogue pads also did not accept input. I went back in-game, and the pads work just fine there.

I rebooted into sysNAND expecting this to be a CFW problem, but lo and behold, the same behavior is happening on sysNAND.

On Homebrew Menu it accepts input from the pads, but not from the touchscreen.

I don't even know how to begin troubleshooting this. Please help!

Bump. I know this is super weird. Trying to find any leads to at least get started.

Last attempt...?

sounds more like a hardware issue.

If touchscreen fails in sysnand without any hax running, your 3DS touchscreen died (probably)

You can get a new touch screen for like $5-$10 on eBay. They're fairly simple/easy to install as long as you're very careful and don't mind opening up your system.

I will try the replacement then and check back after it's done, thanks guys.
