If unbricking is now possible without backups, is downgrade without backups possible as well?

Sorry, only unbricking is possible without backups(bricked due to Gateway carts or other counterfit carts.). Downgrading and other restoration purposes still requires a unique NAND backup made by the console in question.

Thanks.

Hi, do you have replacement parts for the Original XYAB 3DS red color buttons?

Hi,

Sorry I do not have those buttons however, I could order a whole set of red chassis.
So far I can't find any supplier willing to sell those stock of only buttons.

I got a 3DSXL cannot boot to home screen but can boot to setting, can fix?

Can you PM me the details of the symptom?
I might be able to restore the firmware to a lower state then reupdate the firmware.
However, your current firmware should be on 9.2 or below to have any chance at all for this to work.
I still could try to find a solution for this.

Thanks.

Normal power on it wont boot.
But press the button L+R+UP+A while powered on, it boot to System Update.
That's all it response.

Have you tried doing a system format and clearing/remove the SD card?

The nature of the 3DS firmware that it is encrypted with a key unique to each console means that I can't really load up a new firmware for you to fix the problem unless your console can run the browser and below version 9.2 to extract the keys.
Also, this could have been solved if you have made any NAND backup(Via Gateway exploit or via my hardware method service) in the past. If you have, please do inform because that would be an instant fix.

- I cannot even boot to home screen, thus unable to launch the normal setting to do system format etc.
- Same as above, cant run browser whatsoever.
- I don't know what exploit thingie, I play original only.
What happened is I left it on sleep mode for streetpass until the battery died and I forgot about it.
I charged it and tried to turn it on, cannot turn on anymore.
But if I press the button L+R+UP+A while turning it on, it boot to System Update.
I did an update via WiFi on the System Update screen, it updated to the latest version, but I still can't turn it on the normal way and cant go to home screen.

I see.

As Nintendo locks the firmware with encryption, I could not reflash your console without any NAND backup if made previously.
(Exploits and my services that I offer(NAND backup/dump etc.) are not for piracy but rather to protect your console against these problems especially outside of warranty)

This however sounds like a total software problem to me but I may not be able to help you. Sorry. The only chance is to call Nintendo since they are the one who has full control and manipulation on firmware above Version 9.2

Since you are able to update, I can rule out that the wifi card is broken(this can cause the 3DS not to boot properly too).
Perhaps the screens are faulty(also one of the cause for not booting)

Is both of the screens displaying correctly during the System Update?

Both screen working.
Alright thanks for your advise.
I guess I'll keep it until oblivion comes.

hi.... bro.... new 3ds xl can downgrade?

Can downgrade only if you had the NAND backup made from the same console.

Hey bro, I'm not having a brick (able to go to the HOME menu as usual), but I'm unable to access the System Settings. Every time I try, I'll get the infinite loop of Nintendo 3DS logo, or it will bring back to the HOME menu and pop out will say, "An error has occurred, the system will not restart.". I do have my backup of NAND with me.

This happened after my installation of .cia got stuck halfway, so I hold the power button to reset the console, then the problem happen. By any chance "unbricking" or flashing back with my NAND fix this?

Hi yes this problem may be solved by flashing back your nand backup into the NAND chip given that the backup you made was the state that it was in good condition(before it happened).
Feel free to PM or Whatsapp me for further discussion.
