Make sure you're using a version of A9LH that can boot arm9loaderhax.bin from the CTRNAND. Transfer the Luma3DS arm9loaderhax.bin to the CTRNAND so your 3DS will boot without the SD card. That way, they might not notice that you have A9LH/Luma3DS installed, and don't send in the SD card. If they send it back with A9LH removed on 11.2, you can just reinstall it.

Replace it you're self if you're worried or just take a NAND backup , send to nintendo and then when you get it back take another nand backup , restore original and if it bricks that means they changed mainboard(Highly unlikely)

@pietempgba UNINSTALL A9LH. Nintendo checks for it. They have SDs with payloads to test, removing the .bin in your SD card ISN'T A SOLUTION. If not THEY'LL REFUSE YOUR CONSOLE.

PS: Just dump the OTP and remove A9 with SafeA9LHInstaller. Then, you can install it again in 11.2 without the shame of re-dumping the OTP. Also, remove all the crap from the SD or send the console without it.

Good luck.

i send in my new 3ds because i bricked it will they fix it or just give me a diiferent new 3ds xl
What kind of brick is? Depending of that, they can figure how did you screw the thing and reject it. And... Only a few days ago, a kExploit was released. They will see your case in deep.

    So they buy a pi5 kit for about $150 and say a 28" 4k display probably looking around $400 total
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They'll be getting in the territory of portable Pcs anyway
    +1
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Again you get what you pay for, its like buying a S series for $300 but its only 1440p native, if you want true 4k, gotta get the X model for $500. But yea you right, when moms buying it anyways, you gotta stay cheap.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They could use HD out on their TV no real need for a monitor these days tbh the purists will disagree
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I'm kind of phasing out on the need for wanting all these consoles cool to have but they just become dust build ups
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I here ya there, I have too many myself, and have hard time letting them go, since most of mine I've modded at some point. Anymore I just play Switch on the go, seriesx at home.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    ack my throat
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I need to invest in some storage totes tbh
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Tots?
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Tootles
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Tootles? Wtf
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Oh tootles
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Oh totes , lol, like Tupperware storage, I gotcha
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I'm designing my own entertainment cabinet for my man cave, to store all my systems, then I'm also designing a power supply/HDMI switcher so I can switch to whichever system I want, and power it also. Already picked up the cabinet board, but tinkering with my drawings before start
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    But yea, I have frogger arcade cabinet that I gutted and put a Pi4 then Pi5 into, but it never gets played much anymore, should sell it. Even when the kids come over, they don't want to play on it, just the xbox. TMNT and Simpson's arcade is still so fun on it, esp w 2 players.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Gonna check out the new Garfield looks like garbage
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Can't wait to see the new "stick" that can actually play Ps3 or 360 games. I know they are getting close.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @Xdqwerty didn't you see the new garfield?
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:

  • T @ TheSusKing:
    no, i mean if i could store the app on the usb so it doesnt take up my storage
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
