{% capture compat %}
<summary><u>Mehrere Ordner mit langem Namen im Nintendo 3DS Ordner</u></summary>

![]({{ "/images/screenshots/multiple-id0.png" | absolute_url }})
{: .notice--info}

Das passiert, wenn du deine SD-Karte in mehreren 3DS-Konsolen benutzt und existiert, um das Zusammenprallen von Daten zu verhindern, die dein Gerät nicht benutzen kann. Um herauszufinden, welcher der langen Ordner der richtige ist, folge diesen Anweisungen:

1. Benenne den `Nintendo 3DS` Ordner zu `BACKUP_Nintendo 3DS` um
1. Stecke deine SD-Karte in deine Konsole und schalte sie an
1. Warte bis die Konsole die SD-Karten Daten erstellt hat
	+ Deine Apps werden verschwunden sein. Das ist normal und wird gleich behoben
1. Schalte deine Konsole aus und stecke deine SD-Karte wieder in deinen Computer
1. Navigiere zum "Nintendo 3DS"-Ordner auf deiner SD-Karte
1. Kopiere den 32 Buchstaben langen Ordnernamen von dem Ordner, den du siehst
	+ Das ist deine richtige ID0, die du in [Schritt II von Seedminer](seedminer#section-ii---seedminer)
verwenden wirst
1. Lösche den `Nintendo 3DS` Ordner
1. Benenne den `BACKUP_Nintendo 3DS` Ordner zu `Nintendo 3DS` um

<summary><u>Bruteforce Movable springt zu Schritt 4</u></summary>

Die Webseite hat deine `movable.sed` mit deiner Freundescode- und ID0-Kombination bereits herausgefunden. Du kannst die `movable.sed` Datei benutzen, die dir die Seite gibt.
{% endcapture %}
<details>{{ compat | markdownify }}</details>

{% capture compat %}
<summary><u>Important! You have been locked out of the automated part1 dumper system...</u></summary>

Dein Freundescode wurde von dem Bot blockiert, da dein 3DS es nicht geschafft hat, den Bot als Freund hinzuzufügen. Stell sicher, dass dein 3DS korrekt mit dem Internet verbunden ist, und bitte in [Nintendo Homebrew on Discord](https://discord.gg/MWxPgEp) auf Englisch um eine Entperrung.
{% endcapture %}
<details>{{ compat | markdownify }}</details>

{% capture compat %}
<summary><u>We were unable to successfully complete your bruteforce request. :`(</u></summary>

Die Webseite hat festgestellt, dass deine `movable.sed` nicht brute-forcebar ist. Stell sicher, dass du der Seite die richtige ID0 gegeben hast. If your ID0 is correct, then you will be unable to use Seedminer and you will have to use an alternate method.

If you have a New 3DS / New 3DS XL / New 2DS XL (as indicated by the four shoulder buttons on the back and the C-Stick on the right), you can follow [Homebrew Launcher (super-skaterhax)](homebrew-launcher-(super-skaterhax)). Otherwise, you will need to follow a method that requires additional games or hardware.

{% endcapture %}
<details>{{ compat | markdownify }}</details>

## BannerBomb3

{% capture compat %}
<summary><u>Multiple ID1 folders inside of ID0</u></summary>

![]({{ "/images/screenshots/multiple-id1.png" | absolute_url }})

This can occur if you've used multiple SD cards on a 3DS and then merged the contents of the SD cards together. This is done to prevent conflicting, valid data from being merged together.

To fix this, you will need to determine which folder contains your data. Usually, this will be the larger (or largest) of the folders. Backup and delete the smaller one(s), then create a `Nintendo DSiWare` folder in the one that remains and move `F00D43D5.bin` to that location.

{% endcapture %}
<details>{{ compat | markdownify }}</details>

{% capture compat %}
<summary><u>DSiWare Management Menü stürzt ab, ohne BB3 multihax menu anzuzeigen</u></summary>
Stelle sicher, dass `F00D43D5.bin` die einzige Datei in `Nintendo 3DS` -> `<ID0>` -> `<ID1>-> `Nintendo DSiWare` ist. Falls ja, dann erstelle sie mit dem [Bannerbomb3 Injektor](http://3dstools.nhnarwhal.com/#/bb3gen) erneut. 

Stelle außerdem sicher, dass `bb3.bin` im Stammverzeichnis der SD-Karte liegt. Wenn es fehlt, dann lade die neuste Version von [Bannerbomb3](https://github.com/lifehackerhansol/Bannerbomb3/releases/download/v3.0-lhs1/bb3.bin) herunter (direkter Download) und kopiere die `bb3.bin` Datei in das Stammverzeichnis deiner SD-Karte.

Wenn keine dieser Lösungen dieses Problem behebt, dann wurde auf dieser Konsole möglicherweise Custom Firmware auf eine Weise deinstalliert, die diese Methode unmöglich macht. Wenn das der Fall ist, trete dem [Nintendo Homebrew on Discord](https://discord.gg/MWxPgEp) Server bei und frage, auf Englisch, nach Hilfe.
{% endcapture %}
<details>{{ compat | markdownify }}</details>

{% capture compat %}
<summary><u>Nintendo DSiWare-Datenverwaltung zeigt "Es wurden keine Softwaredaten gefunden."</u></summary>

`F00D43D5.bin` fehlt in `Nintendo 3DS` -> `<ID0>` -> `<ID1>` -> `Nintendo DSiWare`. Stelle sicher, dass `Nintendo DSiWare` korrekt geschrieben und Leerzeichen enthält. Groß-/Kleinschreibung spielt hierbei keine Rolle.
{% endcapture %}
<details>{{ compat | markdownify }}</details>

{% capture compat %}
<summary><u>Nintendo DSiWare-Datenverwaltung zeigt ein Fragezeichen</u></summary>

Möglicherweise gibt es ein Problem mit deiner `F00D43D5.bin` Datei (sie kann beschädigt oder für den falschen 3DS bestimmt sein). Erstelle deine `F00D43D5.bin` Datei mit dem [Bannerbomb3 Injector](http://3dstools.nhnarwhal.com/#/bb3gen) neu, und stelle sicher, dass du die `movable.sed` Datei für deine Konsole benutzt.

Browser based exploits (such as this one) are often unstable and crash frequently, but they can sometimes be fixed by doing the following steps.

1. Launch the browser, then launch the browser settings

<summary><u>Error 032-0420 when opening browser</u></summary>

Follow these steps in order:

1. Launch the System Settings application
1. Navigate to `Internet Settings` -> `Connection Settings`
1. Click on your network connection slot and navigate to `Change Settings` -> `Next Page (right arrow)` -> `Proxy Settings`
1. Set "Proxy Settings" to "No"
1. Click OK, then click Save
1. When prompted, click "Test" to perform the connection test
  + Der Test sollte erfolgreich sein
1. Click "OK" to continue
1. Press "Back" twice, then "Close" to go back to the HOME Menu
1. Open the Internet Browser once
1. If prompted about a system update, press OK
  + This won't actually update the system
1. Start again from [Section II](installing-boot9strap-(ssloth-browser).html#section-ii---ssloth)
{% endcapture %}
<details>{{ compat | markdownify }}</details>

{% capture compat %}
<summary><u>"To use the Internet Browser, please update your system using the System Update option in the System Settings."</u></summary>

First, make sure you entered the correct proxy for the connection you're using. If not, go back to [Section II](installing-boot9strap-(ssloth-browser).html#section-ii---ssloth). If the proxy is correct, then your device has been cart-updated, which means an alternate exploit will need to be used.

<u>Method 1</u><br>
If the two numbers before the region in the system version string is equal to or less than 36 (e.g. Ver. 11.14.0-**36**U), you can follow [Soundhax](installing-boot9strap-(soundhax)). When prompted to select a firmware to generate the sound file, use:

* 1.x - 2.1 if the number is between 0 and 2
* 2.1 - 2.2 if the number is between 3 and 4
* 3.x - 4.x if the number is between 5 and 10
* 5.x - 11.3 if the number is between 11 and 36

<u>Method 2 (Old 3DS only)</u><br>
If you have an Old 3DS / Old 3DS XL / 2DS, you can try a Safe Mode update, which will trigger an alternate exploit:

1. Ensure that the proxy that you used for SSLoth is still actively applied to your internet connection
1. With your device powered off, hold the following buttons: (Left Shoulder) + (Right Shoulder) + (D-Pad Up) + (A), and while holding these buttons together, power on your device
  + Halte die Tastengedrückt, bis deine Konsole den Safe Mode startet (ein "System Update" Menü)
1. Drücke "OK" um das System-Update zu bestätigen
1. If everything worked correctly, the update will fail and the 3DS will boot into SafeB9SInstaller. If it did, then continue from [Section IV](installing-boot9strap-(ssloth-browser)#section-iv---installing-boot9strap).

---

If these methods didn't work (or do not apply to you), update your device to the latest version and follow [Seedminer](seedminer).

## Boot issues on devices with custom firmware

The steps detailed here generally assume that your device has a modern custom firmware setup (boot9strap + Luma3DS 8.0 or greater). If your console is running an older homebrew setup (for example, something based on arm9loaderhax or menuhax), you should update your setup before trying these instructions.

### Power/notification light indicators

{% capture compat %}
<summary><u>My device powers off when I try to turn it on, and/or the notification LED shows a color on boot</u></summary>

There is an issue with your `boot.firm` file. If you're running [boot9strap 1.4](https://github.com/SciresM/boot9strap/releases/tag/1.4), your 3DS notification LED may flash a certain color. This color is used to diagnose issues involving your `boot.firm` file on SD card or internal memory. On older versions of boot9strap, the blue light will power off almost immediately when trying to turn on the device.

If the notification LED flashes:

- **White**: Your 3DS was not able to find `boot.firm` on your SD card or on internal memory.
- **Magenta**: Your 3DS was not able to find `boot.firm` on your SD card. It was able to find `boot.firm` on internal memory, but the file is corrupted.
- **Red**: Your 3DS was able to find `boot.firm` on both your SD card and on internal memory, but both files are corrupted.

You can get a new `boot.firm` file by downloading the [latest release of Luma3DS](https://github.com/LumaTeam/Luma3DS/releases/latest), extracting it, and placing `boot.firm` on the root of your SD card. If your `boot.firm` file is consistently being detected as corrupted, you may want to check your SD card for errors ([Windows](h2testw-(windows)), [Linux](f3-(linux)), or [macOS](f3xswift-(mac))). Also, note that the 3DS tends to have issues with files extracted using WinRAR.

If you hear a "popping sound", potentially accompanied with the backlight turning on for a split second, there is a hardware issue with your device (such as a disconnected backlight cable). You may be able to get your device to boot by holding it at certain angles.

<summary><u>My device gets stuck on a black screen with blue power light staying on</u></summary>

The steps below can be attempted in any order, but are listed from least to most time-consuming.

1. Power off your device, remove the SD card, re-insert it, then power on your device.
1. Power off your device, eject the game cartridge if inserted, power on your device, then wait up to ten minutes. If your device boots within ten minutes, the issue has been fixed and is unlikely to reoccur
1. Rename the `Nintendo 3DS` folder on your SD card to `Nintendo 3DS_BACKUP`, then attempt to boot. If your device successfully boots, there is some issue within your `Nintendo 3DS` folder. Try clearing HOME Menu extdata:
	+ Navigate to `/Nintendo 3DS/<ID0>/<ID1>/extdata/00000000/`
  + Delete the corresponding folder for your 3DS region: 
		+ **EUR-Region**: `00000098`
		+ **JPN-Region**: `00000082`
		+ **USA-Region**: `0000008f`
		+ **CHN-Region**: `000000A1`
		+ **KOR-Region**: `000000A9`
		+ **TWN-Region**: `000000B1`
1. Try booting into recovery mode and updating your system:
	+ Power off your device
	+ Hold (Left Shoulder) + (Right Shoulder) + (D-Pad Up) + (A)
	+ Power on your device
	+ If you were successful, the device will boot to an "update your system" screen
1. Follow the [CTRTransfer](ctrtransfer) guide

### Error message on boot

{% capture compat %}
<summary><u>"An error has occurred: Failed to apply 1 FIRM patch(es)" or "An exception has occurred -- Current process: pm"</u></summary>

Your Luma3DS version is outdated. Download the latest release of [Luma3DS](https://github.com/LumaTeam/Luma3DS/releases/latest) and place `boot.firm` on the root of your SD card, replacing any existing file. Make sure you are extracting the ZIP file with any tool other than WinRAR, as it is known to cause issues with 3DS-related files.
{% endcapture %}
<details>{{ compat | markdownify }}</details>

{% capture compat %}
<summary><u>"Unable to mount CTRNAND or load the CTRNAND FIRM. Please use an external one."</u></summary>
There are a number of reasons as to why this could be happening. In any case, this error can usually be fixed by following the [CTRTransfer](ctrtransfer) guide.
{% endcapture %}
<details>{{ compat | markdownify }}</details>

{% capture compat %}
<summary><u>"An error has occurred. Hold down the POWER button to turn off the power..."</u></summary>

ARM11 exception handlers are disabled, or custom firmware is not installed. Try enabling ARM11 exception handlers:
  + Power off your device
  + Hold (Select)
  + Power on your device, while still holding (Select)
  + If the "Disable ARM11 exception handlers" box is checked, uncheck it
{% endcapture %}
<details>{{ compat | markdownify }}</details>

{% capture compat %}
<summary><u>HOME Menu is missing installed applications</u></summary>

This could be caused by various reasons, but most likely because your SD card is not being read by the system.
You can check if your SD is being read by holding SELECT on boot and checking the yellow text on the bottom screen; if it says "Booted from CTRNAND via B9S", then your device is booting from the internal memory and not from the SD card.
If this is the case, attempt the steps below, which are listed from easiest to hardest:
1. Power off your device, remove the SD card, re-insert it, then power on your device
1. Power off your device, remove the SD card, insert it on your PC, download the latest release of [Luma3DS](https://github.com/LumaTeam/Luma3DS/releases/latest), extract `boot.firm` from the `Luma3DS.zip` and place it on the root of your SD card (replacing any existing file)
1. Power off your device, remove the SD card, insert it on your PC and reformat your SD card according to your computer's operating system: [Windows](formatting-sd-(windows)), [macOS](formatting-sd-(mac)), [Linux](formatting-sd-(linux)) *(this will wipe your SD card data)*
1. Test your SD card for errors by following the guide according to your computer's operating system: [Windows](h2testw-(windows)), [Linux](f3-(linux)), [macOS](f3xswift-(mac)). If your SD card is marked as faulty, then you will have to replace your SD card

<summary><u>Blue "BOOTROM ERROR" screen</u></summary>

Your device is likely hard-bricked. You will need to buy an ntrboot flashcart to reinstall boot9strap in order to attempt to fix your device. This may also indicate a hardware issue that cannot be fixed. In any case, join [Nintendo Homebrew on Discord](https://discord.gg/MWxPgEp) for assistance.
  + It is also possible that someone has set a boot-time splash screen that just looks like a brick. Try leaving your device powered on, waiting on the blue screen, for five minutes.
