3DS:Keyboard Unbrick: Difference between revisions

Line 1:

If a custom keyboard is installed and custom firmware is removed from the console, System Settings will be inaccessible and you will not be able to launch the keyboard. This is obviously detrimental to the overall functioning of your 3DS and should be fixed as soon as possible.

~~There are other ways to reinstall custom firmware on such~~ a ~~console, but they may require additional hardware. This guide aims to reinstall~~ custom ~~firmware without any additional hardware~~, ~~but if~~ you ~~have~~ the ~~means~~, ~~[[3dsguide:ntrboot|ntrboot]] will probably be less of a pain~~.

The following methods require extra hardware but is the recommended way of recovering from this as they should work 100% of the time regardless of system version:

*[[3dsguide:ntrboot|ntrboot]] (Requires a compatible flashcard)

*[https://3ds.hacks.guide/installing-boot9strap-(kartdlphax).html kartdlphax] (Requires a second console and a copy of Mario Kart 7, both the same region as your console))

==Methods that don't require seedminer==

The following methods do not require seedminer and can be followed like normal:

*[~~https~~:~~//3ds.hacks.guide/~~installing-boot9strap-(super-skaterhax).html super-skaterhax]

*[[3dsguide:installing-boot9strap-(super-skaterhax).html|super-skaterhax]]
