the OP said he has no Nintendo 3DS in sdcard, he did a ctrtransfer= 2 possible things: His nand may be corrupted or he trasfered a new3ds image

I used the torrent provided by 3ds.guide

Seems like you've tried pretty much everything, the only thing left I can think of to try is this: https://github.com/AnalogMan151/Lazarus3DS
What guide exactly did you follow when you first tried hacking and bricked it?

If followed the 3ds.guide soundhax when a9lh was a thing.
Question, where do you find a sighax_hdr.bin? Is it apart of SafeB9SInstaller?

It should be included in the files the guide asks you to download, I don't really remember.

I'm in the same boat but that guide does not have any links (unless I'm missing something?). It says it needs 8 bin files:

1. Prepared donor ctrnand.bin, nand_hdr.bin, twln.bin, twlp.bin files & SHAs for your console (o3DS / n3DS + USA / EUR / JPN + retail / dev).
   
   
2. A clean sector0x96.bin, boot9strap.bin, sighax_hdr.bin & SHA for your type of console (retail / dev).
   
   
3. A copy of twlmbr.bin & SHA

But no links. I guess it's Google time...

If anyone knows where I can easily aquire those files for n3DSxl PM me!

You realize that by no links, that it means both on here and in pms. Right?

 

[smallmedicap]

Yes I understand it means no linking on here, which is why I asked about PM.

I was under the impression we can PM each other whatever what what.

If I am wrong about that I apologize.


Also, I'm not quite sure if all of those are verboten type files. I seem to remember a couple of them being downloadable in guides before...

Bad news.

I ran Lazarus correctly. It did NOT fix my black screen glitched n3ds xl.

I found most of the files they were asking for in the SYSNAND VIRTUAL. But I'm not sure it will work.

Does this have anything to do with the homemenu, would I have to install a homemenu.cia???

It might, but a system update would fix it. Try deleting the home menu applet and updating via recovery mode.

A couple years ago, I bricked my 2DS when I tried to install CFW; thankfully, my friend unbricked it with ntrboot. I can access Godmode9 but I cannot access my home menu. What do I do, I can't find any home menus and I don't know how to install it.
Thanks.

It's the boot.firm
delete "boot.firm" and the luma folder off your sdcard, then boot your 2ds. Now it will still be black so now go back to your sdcard and put the latest "boot.firm" on it. Make the luma folder again and then put all your payloads and all that. Now yboot your 3ds. It should work now.

What region is your system?

 

[SteelBANANA]

What region is your system?

Americas(usa)

 

[SirNapkin1334]

Americas(usa)

Delete the folder: 1:/title/

Note: this is at your own risk; make a NAND backup first!!
Then use Recovery Mode to do a system update.
