Okay you may want to try downgrading your 3ds to 11.11 because this guide is for firmware version 11.11 but first see if anyone else replies to this thread for I am not as experienced as other people on this forum

Downgrading the console is not possible unless you have full cfw on your system. and at that point. is useless as downgrading serves no real purpose.

Oh. Does that mean I'm out of luck then for now?

Hello.

Did you have suceeded the Test BEFORE ? Is your WiFi ENABLED ?

DS Internet Settings Test (used for Fredtool)

1. Go to System Settings, then “Internet Settings”, then “Nintendo DS Connections”
2. Press “OK”
3. If your device loads into a “Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection Setup” menu, the test was successful
   • If the screen stays black or appears to freeze, the test has failed and you will not be able to use the bannerbomb3 method which requires a functioning DS Internet Settings
4. Exit this menu

Thank you.

I did the test Before it began and it was fine so I don't really know what's going on tbh :/

Do you by chance have a ds flashcart you could use for the ntrboot method?

No it just means that downgrading isn't a solution

Sadly I don't

EDIT: Nevermind, this was a different issue altogether...

Hey there. I just encountered this very same issue with my cousin's console as I was updating it for the holidays.

I fixed it by visiting and downloading the boot.3dsx from smealum's homebrew page, replacing the one on the SD root (or putting it there if it doesn't exist). (CTRL+F for "The Homebrew Launcher menu executable")
