When I power on my old 3ds XL, I have a black screen error.
I can't use it at all

I already tried:
Shutting down and on, holding the buttons
Safe mode
Removing/ inserting SD card
Removing/inserting game
Replacing the wifi router

It's not modded, apparently it happened to my friend when she was playing pokemon (idk if it fell down)
Turn off wireless communications

I can solder and try to buy new components if needed

#

I wanted to try reconnect the camera but idk

#

I don't know what is the issue

#

But I really wish to fix it

#

When I try safe mode, nothing happens

I already checked every websites and videos but still nothing

#

I asked in a video games store and they told me they don't take 3ds in charge anymore

#

Nintendo support doesn't really help either

Youll have to hack it to figure out the cause

#

Stock error codes are too generic to determine what the issue is

#

Lumas error codes are much more specific

#

Since you cant access the home menu, youd have to do ntrboot

#

If turning off wireless communications didnt fix it, the cause may be a hardware issue that may not be worth fixing
