Dude, I didn't need to format a modded 3ds, but I just want to say that your content is awesome and that you deserve way more subscribers than you have. You are the best UA-camr ever.
- BaamAlex - well, sometimes it’s a possibility that it could brick your device, who knows? 😅 but now that’s from the past, now we all are sure that nothing will happen
This works flawlessly on my region changed o3ds. Thank you so much for your service to the 3DS homebrew community!! Your videos are very useful, keep it up!
@@palleto1 I'm pretty sure You can't access the eShop if you region change and have accessed the eShop prior to region changing. I get my games and updates from hShop now since I can't access the eShop
dude you are a lifesaver all my homebrew apps got deleted when i switched sd cards to a bigger one and i've been trying for days to figure out how to re install is you saved my life!!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! literally all my homebrew applications where gone and so i decided to follow this guide after tons of researching and nothing working. THANK YOU!!
You are literally the best youtuber ever know to man you've helped me countless times I just wanted to show my appreciation towards you great job keep up the great work man.
Thank you so much for testing this out I wanted to mod my new 2da xl but was to scared that I wouldn’t be able to factory reset it if I didn’t like the hacked version!
God knows how much i struggled JBing my 2ds, and I watched your video and get it done for like 15 mins. u really are a legend! earned my heartfelt subs
Thank you so much, my sd card gave out and nothing would work until I found your video. I also remember watching your videos to jailbreak my 3ds all those years ago so thank you for that as well
brother you just saved my ass. my sd card got corrupted and I had to reformat it losing everything. this got me back to where I needed to be though. thank you
Thank you so much for this! Im getting a secondhand CFW 3DS and dont really want hacks on the console, so it’s good to know I can factory reset without bricking it!
@@kamehameha7367 Its basically what sthetix said, the finalizing step wasn't needed in my case but idk if it applies to every model or just the old one I got.
This makes no sense. The installed games are linked to the old setup. And other files will not be deleted because the 3ds formats only the Nintendo 3DS folder.
WOW this guy is legend. This is actually the only proper help i could find. i managed to install custom firmware easily with another link but couldn't get anything to install on my 3ds. i followed this link reset my 3ds and installed the starter pack and yeah man got it to work. thanks so much
I'm not sure but maybe i have the same problem do you mean you cannot install cia files with fbi and resetting fix it, cause currently some of my cia titles give me some error when i tried to install even with different sources, tried different copies give the same exact error. Code: 0xD9004588 Rsa/hash verification failure(392)
Yooo thanks man. I picked up my old 3ds the other day and all it had on it was twilight menu+. I thought I could just copy the back up files to my 3ds and everything would reappear, but it didn't. So I was scrambling for answers and I almost tried to re hack it but thankfully the guy said don't do it if your 3d is already hacked as it could brick..was also about to do gm9, but i'm glad I found this video. I did the select on power on check to see if it was still hacked and it was. Thanks for this vid I got all fbi and stuff back.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR HELPING ME, I got this 3ds a while ago, and i didnt know that much about it, i was searching for WEEKS a tutorial to mod my 3ds back, you're the best.
ok this fixed my 3ds after i had to format it. so i take back every negative thing i have ever said about you and i cast on you a thousand heart felt compliments in your general direction.
my *old 3ds* when connecting it opens the *godmode9* screen in version 1.8.0, only when pressing any button the screen resets. I can only access the home menu if I press L and hold for 3 seconds could help me solve this problem, I've tried everything. the *Rosalina Menu* when it opens it locks the console and I have to hold the power button until it turns off Thanks in advance :)
Might need to replace your boot.firm file. Had that before, I was having issues getting into godmode9 so I temporarily renamed the godmode9.firm to boot.firm. Booted right into godmode9 but I had to swap the boot.firm to a new version to get it to boot once I was done. Hope this helps.
I've had this problem ever since I bought my New 3DS and swapped my ID over. It took so long I lost my savegames and all the management software with no clue how to reinstall without the app I'd need to install itself.
Hey dude i just want to say your stuff is cool, I've not used any of your guides but you have alot of videos i can't find an answer to anywhere else, like how to backup a NAND and how to upgrade storage without losing any data. Thanks man, I hope you do more modding stuff soon
My 3DS' SD card once had a read error, forcing it to be formatted, it caused my 3DS to be similar to this. It was a pain to get everything back, that's why I keep backups of the SD cards from my modded game consoles now.
Thanks dude for this video u save my life. i upgraded my sd card to 128gb i already watched some of your video on how to ugrade the sd card it seems to be successful but some of my previos cia that i deleted and was installed again seems to be unsuccessful but with this video i already installed again all my cia files.
you just helepd me in 2022 so my bro broke my 3ds and i sent it to a fixer he fixed it and then i noticed that my cfw was still instaled so i looked at your guide and it helped thank you so much
THANK YOU SO MUCH! Everything is working perfectly and i downloaded hShop, thank you for making my day. Oh btw why did i formatted the console? Mii Maker personal favorite thing i can’t erase it and remove it but this helped me!
while i was modding my new 3ds i needed to download pokemon picross and i needed to make a new nintendo id just for that and i formatted it put homebrew back on it and then used that video you made on how to clone a 3ds
I get into The Homebrew launcher and I don't have the FBI or the other application. Edit- I figured it out I'm on the wrong video LOL I needed to use god mode 9 in order to install the finalizing process
Thank you so much dude!! I formatted because i wanted to change nintendo network id and when i tried doing the tutorial i used the first time it didnt work and gave errors
Dude, I didn't need to format a modded 3ds, but I just want to say that your content is awesome and that you deserve way more subscribers than you have. You are the best UA-camr ever.
thanks
Same just courious
I always had that fear that if I format the 3DS, it’ll brick the 3DS, but glad that this proves that nothing will happen. Thank you :)
Samee
What should brick? boot9strap is an bootrom exploit. Not sd card related.
- BaamAlex - well, sometimes it’s a possibility that it could brick your device, who knows? 😅 but now that’s from the past, now we all are sure that nothing will happen
@@BaamAlex Luma also specifically asks you where you want the files to be saved on the sd or on the 3ds itself. So you can boot into it without an sd
Even on the ctrnand are the files save. A factory reset doesn't remove them from there.
This works flawlessly on my region changed o3ds. Thank you so much for your service to the 3DS homebrew community!! Your videos are very useful, keep it up!
Does your eshop work?? I have the 3DS LL and changed it to NA but not I can’t system transfer or access the eshop
@@palleto1 I'm pretty sure You can't access the eShop if you region change and have accessed the eShop prior to region changing. I get my games and updates from hShop now since I can't access the eShop
I have a new 2ds LL with the USA region. But I can not factory default. Do you have a way for this?
2ds ll ya jepang lah bro. harus balikin ke reg jepang dulu kalo mau dihapus itu cfw nya
@@kuribo2305 does extended memory games work now also does formatting change the 3ds back to the original language
dude you are a lifesaver all my homebrew apps got deleted when i switched sd cards to a bigger one and i've been trying for days to figure out how to re install is you saved my life!!!
Sounds like a really nice plan after getting your hands on a second hand hacked console to make sure everything is fresh and clean.
Hah
this actually helped me, cause i bought a used 3ds and was not aware it was moded so i formated it, thanks lol
shoulda just kept it modded
You're awesome! Thank you so much for these videos! I was under the assumption that CFW would break. Even updating the 3DS would freak me out.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! literally all my homebrew applications where gone and so i decided to follow this guide after tons of researching and nothing working. THANK YOU!!

Thank you so much for testing this out I wanted to mod my new 2da xl but was to scared that I wouldn’t be able to factory reset it if I didn’t like the hacked version!
it wont bricked
Factory reset won’t un mod it either.
God knows how much i struggled JBing my 2ds, and I watched your video and get it done for like 15 mins. u really are a legend! earned my heartfelt subs
you are welcome
I couldn't find the app to press once in the homebrew launcher it only showed FBI
Thank you so much, my sd card gave out and nothing would work until I found your video. I also remember watching your videos to jailbreak my 3ds all those years ago so thank you for that as well
You are welcome.
Dude you are a legend, I just bought a secondhand Japanese 2ds xl that had a formatted sd card and this saved my investment so thank you
So it didn’t remove your mods?
@liamohandley3231 no
can confirm this works for 11.17
Edit: you can use Checkpoint to save every save file as long as you don't delete the checkpoint folder in the sd card
brother you just saved my ass. my sd card got corrupted and I had to reformat it losing everything. this got me back to where I needed to be though. thank you
4 years later and this still works wonders. thankyou :)
You do the questionable stuff so that we don't have to!
I dont know how to thank you. I have just done that and I was afraid that my console got bricked. Your video just saved my day
Thank you so much for this! Im getting a secondhand CFW 3DS and dont really want hacks on the console, so it’s good to know I can factory reset without bricking it!
Why not just take advantage of it being modded and learn as you go?
It still works on 2023, its just a little bit diferent but it is almost the same process, thank you so much you saved my 3ds!
Hey I need to do this , in what way is it a bit different in 2023?
No difference except the 3ds finalizing-setup video
@@kamehameha7367 Its basically what sthetix said, the finalizing step wasn't needed in my case but idk if it applies to every model or just the old one I got.
It’s Always the best moment of the day when I watch your videos
bro you saved my 3ds i never thought the internet was so helpful before thank you so much
i suggest just making a copy of the micro sd card just in case, if you want to go back.
This makes no sense. The installed games are linked to the old setup. And other files will not be deleted because the 3ds formats only the Nintendo 3DS folder.
And if you format your 3ds , but still got a copy of the sd card, how do you link the files already instaled to the new setup.
WOW this guy is legend. This is actually the only proper help i could find. i managed to install custom firmware easily with another link but couldn't get anything to install on my 3ds. i followed this link reset my 3ds and installed the starter pack and yeah man got it to work. thanks so much

10/10 my dude.
Same!

I already did this to my old 3ds because I was getting a new one, after I formatted it it still had cfw, so I had to go on godmode 9 to remove cfw
great video! i just bought a used 2ds with luma and have zero knowledge abt it, your videos really helps! its very straightforward and concise
sthetix, I honestly fucking love you. You saved me twice from fucking up my 3ds. Absolute legend
ok this fixed my 3ds after i had to format it. so i take back every negative thing i have ever said about you and i cast on you a thousand heart felt compliments in your general direction.

Google for ntr flash card brick backup or something
so it autoboots to godmode9?
@@sthetixofficial yep

Glad you like them!
Worked perfectly. Thank you very much!!
I love this guy
This was literally my problem i was having
With 11.16?
don't know about it but just follow the text guide, this might be outdated
If you ever need help with subtitles or such, I think many of us would be happy to help.
I am good with subtitle, but the thing is since my native language is not English, so I had to burn the subtitle into the video.
Accidentally deleted every file for homebrew and lost my mind , saw this video helped me out a lot
Now what happens if you format emummc on switch
it doesnt matter at all.. wanna prove it too? later ok..
Legend, thanks man! Worked flawless, region changed 3DS aswell. Great vid, thanks again!
Thanks
So it works if it’s modded and region changed?
Hello! How do we completely remove all hacked software, and things like Luma3DS and GM9 as well so that it is like Stock again?
@@chelviananth2665 and that completely removes anything hacked related so its like stock again? Removes all CFW?
@@TheClariceyNad and that completely removes anything hacked related so its like stock again? Removes all CFW?
He has a video on that
i do have video on that
@@sthetixofficial thank you! I checked it out
Thanks! pressed the wrong button on my friends 3ds he wanted me to homebrew and it half-modded it so this helped a lot
Great video, excellent work, then you could say this is useful in case you want to clean your SD and reinstall just what you want?
yes
your a real one saved me from a huge headache
I was expecting it to turn immediately off as you try to turn it on as that happens when you don't have the boot.firm file but I was wrong.
This was a lifesaver for me, THANK YOU SO MUCH BRO
I tried it and custom firmware was still installed
3 years later and you saved another guy who thought they ruined their 3ds. Thanks so much!!!
You are welcome.
i dont format for any reason i love my 2ds xl with cfw
