Are you using the latest stable version of Luma?

Define, "never works". What settings do you have ticked in Lumas config?

I have the same issue, but only with some of my injects. For instance, my personal Mother 3 inject doesn't work (freezes at a black screen). However, a Mother 3 inject that I downloaded from that iso site works flawlessly.

What message pops up after the injection finishes?

 

[austin5623]

On my 3DS? Or on the program? On the 3DS nothing pops up. It just freezes. On the injector program itself, nothing shows up.

Try this :https://github.com/AuroraWright/Luma3DS/wiki/FAQ-and-troubleshooting

Scroll all the way to the bottom where it says "I get an auto shutdown in GBA/DS/DSi Games"

But it only happens to some of them. And my 3DS doesn't shut down, it just doesn't load the game.
(sorry need to correct myself, i get a white screen.)

Doesn't matter, it could still be a corrupted AGB firm, which following those steps would 100% fix. Your choice to try it or not.

Guess it couldn't hurt.

Strange. Normally in the program it shows a message saying it was completed and asks if you want to open the output folder. Also, are you using the Ultimate GBA VC Injector or the New Super Ultimate Injector?

 

[austin5623]

oops, it says it completed and it asks about the output folder (New Super Ultimate Injector? i'll have to give that a try.)

Strange, I used the same injector and I got a Mother 3 ROM to work on mine (it was the fan translation patched to a clean ROM using Lunar IPS).

I used My Boy!'s built-in patcher. It works on every emulator I tried.

wouldnt hurt to try Lunar IPS to see if its the fault of My Boy!'s functionality
