i know there has been no reports of anything like this so i know that this is something new or maybe something rare. When i opened luma with L-button Down-button and select button, none of the options in this menu would work (They all Crashed) and when i returned to my new 3ds the control pad completely stopped working and so did the A,B,X,Y Buttons, the L-1 and R-2 Buttons, and the zlr and zlL buttons. the only thing that worked was the touch pad but not very well. i did the restore Nand option and the problem was still in the new 3ds as was my themes which should have disappeared. Does anyone have any advice on what i should do or if its utterly hopeless like a fried nand

Your themes are saved to the SD card, so they'd stay through Nand restore so long as you had valid tickets on the Nand that got restored (Which you did and that's not a bad thing)
Try replacing your boot.firm for (direct download) the latest Luma release. Even if you already have it, humor me. Something could be wrong with your boot.firm

If that doesn't work I'd guess borked SD card

I wasn't doing anything really, all I did was install the new fork for freeshop, but i'm sure that this problem could have been here since I hacked my new 3ds, because I never knew about the Rosalina menu nor have I ever opened it until a week ago, that's when this happened. it has occurred once before on a completely random occasion when using a SNES CIA legend of Zelda link to the past. the game's controls crashed and became unplayable randomly and so did the menu, it went away after a Nand restore.

The touch screen isn't working well? If you're using a screen protector then those things cause more problems than they solve.
I don't know how to explain the crashes.

Also don't post your NAND dump. I'm not really sure where that falls legally, but I DO know the file is huge and nobody is really going to dig through that.

I don't know if you were right our if was the community combined help. I entered in the setting and was attempting a reconfiguration of the touch screen and as I saw it didn't work at all. I didn't expect this at all to be the issue but I think that the screen protects are just like a virus. maybe because not once did I think to take off not did I even believe I would affect the rest of my buttons. but once I took it off the touch worked fine and when I returned the menu everything was fine even the d-pad started working again. none of this makes any sense to me what so ever, why would the touch screen affect every other button function in the 3ds, isn't the touchscreen and the button separate, I guess apparently not. the lumas Rosalina menu was crashing but after following Rickens' advice it was gone and the controls did work better. I think it just had to be a combination of a corrupted luma system and a crappy reused screen protector that was the problem. WHat corrupted my luma was probably that SNES CIA I downloaded which might have been corrupted itself. Sorry for bothering the community by giving the notion of a virus, when instead it was a simple corruption of luma, and of course a screen protector that was messing up the controls.

Also, i checked to see if the problem returned when putting on the screen protector and nothing happened, it seems to work fine, I guess my suspicion that this had to do with a combination of the both was prove, seems pretty confusing to me but I guess that just how it is.
