greetings! made an account to post here about the issue, hope i'm following site ettiquite, apologies if not.
recently, one of my siblings got a japanese nintendo 3ds xl (the ll model), which means all of our games don't work due to it being region locked, so i took it upon myself to mod it so that our money didn't go to waste. after following the official tutorial for luma3ds (the 3ds hacks guide one), i followed all the steps perfectly, and it works so far. configuration menu works, rosalina menu works, but when i got to the finalized section involving godmode, it doesn't seem to work? i've tried seeing if anyone else has had this issue, where instead of it booting into godmode9, it just goes straight to the home menu, and while i've gotten sparce results, nothing helps.
my folders are organized, i've followed the tutorial EXACTLY. the tutorial says if you don't boot into godmode9 following the steps it told you to do, that you've misplaced or didn't put the finalizing folder correctly, which I PUT IT EXACTLY AS INTENDED! i've been at this for over 2 hours and i'm beginning to lose hope. how can i make it boot into gm9?
tl;dr, followed luma3ds tutorial on 3dshacksguide, got to the finalizing point with godmode9 (section V), but godmode9 doesn't load at boot as the tutorial said it should, it just boots to home instead. i did everything right and i'm not sure where i went wrong. help?
let me know if i need to post anything like pictures of the folder directories or the contents of the SD, etc. thank you!!
