Is my 3DS Bricked?

Is my 3DS Bricked? - Pink Nintendo 3ds

I was installing arm9loaderhax (at http://2xrsa.3ds.guide) and it didn't turn off. I waited an hour, pressed A button and Select and nothing happened.

I removed the SD card and powered on, the screen had some color changing but I switched off Power-Saving Mode and the screen is fine.

I then formatted the SD card - (it said that the sd card was corrupted in my pc). Now I am at 2.2.1 version - my 3ds works but I don't know how to get out of it. Is it bricked? Here is my n3ds without sd card.



Best Answer

As cited from 3ds.guide:

A browser based exploit is not working

Browser based exploits (such as browserhax or 2xrsa) are often unstable and crash frequently, but they can sometimes be fixed by doing the following steps

Launch the browser, then launch the browser settings Scroll to the bottom and Initialize Savedata (it also may be called Clear All Save Data) Try the exploit again

Redo this step and use the backed up NAND.bin from the previous step. If you didn't back that up, you're screwed.

Can my 3DS get bricked?

No. Just like with HBL, you can't brick your 3DS by running Homebrew games/apps (with the exception of downgrading) unless you're really trying to. It might freeze or refuse to boot, but there's no way to actually brick your console.
