I've recently started taking apart my 3ds to paint the shell. I started by using a primer and spray paint it on the the parts of the shell. Unfortunately, one of the ribbon cables got paint on them and I'm unsure if it still works or not. Is there any way of cleaning it up?
Bought this galaxy ds off someone claiming it was bricked. Looks like they used the ssd card that came with it to install mods. Is it salvageable or doomed?
Mainly for those who are not capable of doing or paying for the USB C mod. Also keeps the unit and shell stock; no soldering or cutting. Also prolongs life of the charge port. Theres so many brands that produce smart chargers, some even with voltage readouts, so no need to worry about overcharging.
I just started modding my 3ds today and tried adding cheats, but I don't see the cheats option like everyone else
This post was written using Google Translate, so the wording might be a bit awkward.
I’ve finished fully assembling the New 3DS I painted previously, including all the parts.
I repainted it because the paint was chipping around the hinge and buttons, but it seems some chipping is inevitable.
It’s the first time you’ve seen a yellow New 3DS, right? Looks cool, doesn't it?
The quality isn't quite as good in person as it looks in the photos, but since it's for my own use and this was my first painting project, I’m quite satisfied with it.
Hi guys!
Today I'm posting this to see if people would be interested in a product I've been making for the New Nintendo 3DS XL.
The project is getting pretty close to being finished after working on all the hard parts. The idea is a simple drop-in USB-C rechargeable battery mod, kind of like the rechargeable batteries you can get for the Game Boy Advance.
Instead of changing the 3DS itself, the product would be a battery with a small charging and power board attached to it. I'm trying to make it as close to the original battery as possible so it can fit inside the normal battery compartment.
The USB-C port will be on the back of the battery, facing toward the back of the 3DS. This means you would need to use a modified backplate or make a hole in your current one. The plan is to include a backplate with a hole already made for the USB-C port.
I'm also hoping to make the battery around 300 mAh bigger than the original battery, but the final capacity will depend on testing and what battery I can safely fit.
I'm making this post to see what people think before I start making the product.
Would you actually buy something like this?
What would you change or add? Do you think the price is fair? Is there anything you think I should improve?
I'd really like to hear what you guys think, especially from people who own or use a New 3DS XL.
acabo de meterle magia a mi 3ds xl, pero, cuando lo enciendo sale una imagen, como la puedo quitar?
Hello everyone, so I got gifted a new 3DSXL but i don’t know how to transfer the saves and games from my old 3DSXL I hope there’s a way to do it because I tried modding my new one an transfer the files but it doesn’t work that way or maybe I did it wrong but I did back up the files just in case, please anyone help me with this, thank u :D
As titled stated, after a bottom screen replacement of my new 3DS XL, it no longer boots up. The age old story of a blue light, then a popping sound, then a shut off. I don’t understand what happened.
The actual repair occurred yesterday. But I noticed my 3D slider and volume slider weren’t working, and i read one should use isopropyl alcohol to clean the ribbon cables and their connectors for a fix. I did that, and here I am
What exactly makes the popping sound. What confuses me is none of the ribbon cables look torn or corroded. I’ve attached pictures of the board + cables please let me know if there are any obvious issues. I’ve since cleaned every single one and reapplied them a million timers over, yet i can’t seem to figure it out. please help.
Would really like some guidance. I JUST got this special additional 3DS and am not willing to let it go. It is dual IpS after the bottom screen repair and will cry if a screen replacement is needed. I’m willing to take it into a repair shop at this point
Hello everyone. Can you help me fix this? Is it complicated? I'm not necessarily looking for the cheapest option. But if you have a specific model to use as a reference and a guide or tutorial, that would be great. Has anyone done this before and have any tips?
I saw an older post of someone doing this but could not find any other examples. I tried it out myself and so far have had pretty noticeable battery life gains
Problem is as stated in the title. I cannot access the drive according to file explorer and I cannot run chkdsk /f /r even when running command prompt with administrator permissions. It says that I don't have access to it and I cannot format it using windows tools. Going into properties, it says that I can't access it because I don't have read permissions and it says that the sd card has zero storage. Anyone run into this issue before? If so, how did they fix it?
Can someone explain why?
Ciao sono nuovo e ho comprato un 3ds moddato ma io non ne so niente l'unica esperienza che ho della wii che consigli mi potete dare? E poi qualcuno mi potrebbe dare i file per il 3ds come le app ecc..
Whenever i press the home button it pops up and raises the connector up like this and the home button falls through. If i apply pressure to the connector and press the home button it’s fine. what gives? it worked fine before i took it apart so i’ve gotta be doing something wrong.
FIXED!!!!
I have a modded 3DS XL which i wanted to play after three months and now it wont turn on. I had it charging over the night and it didn't turn on in the morning. After some tries turning it on it booted into the Luma3ds menu and into GM9 where i needed to set the date and clock. After selecting "Reboot System", it booted into the normal homescreen. Everything was normal then, full batteries, all my games where there and my wallpaper. I closed it and it turned off without pressing anything and now it doesn't do a thing. When connected to the charger it wont charge properly and if i try to turn it on, the charging stops and i need to pull the charger out and put it back in so it charges.
Am i cooked?
This error message shows up everytike I try and boot up a game what do I do 😭
