It's either you changed your seed on Nintendo network to unban, or you changed your seed to bypass a Pretendo ban

#

Restore your old seed from a NAND backup

quasi wharf Restore your old seed from a NAND backup

I didn't bypass any ban I just updated my pretendo on universal updater.

And I never thought of this before so I didn't even restore my nand at all.

quasi wharf May 9, 2024, 6:04 AM

#

Ohhh, okay so power off your console and hold select while powering on

#

Make sure game patching and external firm loading is enabled

jolly crane May 9, 2024, 6:04 AM

#

Not gonna work either

quasi wharf May 9, 2024, 6:05 AM

#

Just try it pls

jolly crane May 9, 2024, 6:05 AM

#

When I enable firm and game patching this happens

quasi wharf May 9, 2024, 6:05 AM

#

If they aren't enabled, your console can't connect to pretendo

#

And that looks like a whole nother issue not related to pretendo

jolly crane May 9, 2024, 6:05 AM

#

quasi wharf If they aren't enabled, your console can't connect to pretendo

But my Nintendo boots when I don't select any one options.

quasi wharf May 9, 2024, 6:06 AM

#

It will boot, but you will get the error 002-0121 error and won't be able to connect

No look this is what happens... You said in this message "It will boot, but you will get the error 002-0121 error and won't be able to connect" but that doesn't happen because I already shown what happens in this listed video above.

That's not a Pretendo issue in the video shown, you must have installed some other patches on your console

jolly crane May 9, 2024, 6:09 AM

#

I even tried switching my system to pretendo but it switches back to Nintendo.

Even if I do it over and over

quasi wharf May 9, 2024, 6:09 AM

#

Disabling patches won't let you connect to Pretendo, hence the error. The patches aren't messing with your console.

#

Also it can't switch if patches are off

#

The problems shown are issues not related to pretendo, you must have installed something else on top to cause those issues

jolly crane May 9, 2024, 6:11 AM

#

This happened right after I updated it using universal updater.

quasi wharf May 9, 2024, 6:11 AM

#

You use any game patches? Like English translations and the mix

#

All I can advise is switching back to Nintendo network, removing both the sysmodules and titles folders

#

And do a reinstall

#

If it happens again, it might either be a faulty SD or something's wrong with your 3DS/2DS

#

Also make sure your console is updated to the latest version.

jolly crane May 9, 2024, 6:16 AM

#

Nintendo banned me from updating

#

I can't update to any new version, I did update Luma tho

quasi wharf May 9, 2024, 6:18 AM

#

If you installed a custom home menu ever, you will be unable to update

#

Try switching back to Nintendo network

#

Also note the error that the console gives you when attempting to update

#

Make sure your on Nintendo network, if you aren't you will not be able to update

#

Also what's your system version?

jolly crane May 9, 2024, 6:21 AM

#

What is the difference between HokakiCTR and Nimbus?

quasi wharf May 9, 2024, 6:22 AM

#

Ohhh, remove the HokakiCTR thing, that was to dump packets (I think?) and might cause some issues?

#

It's a not needed plugin

jolly crane May 9, 2024, 6:26 AM

#

How do I remove that?

#

I'm going to data management

quasi wharf May 9, 2024, 6:28 AM

#

You can't remove it there, power off the console and hold start once it's off and power on again to godmode9

jolly crane May 9, 2024, 6:28 AM

#

Alright

I'm in godmod9

quasi wharf May 9, 2024, 6:31 AM

#

Go to SD CARD, after navigate to the luma folder

#

Then go to plugins and delete the plugin

#

If your already there, you should also remove both the sysmodules and titles

jolly crane May 9, 2024, 6:32 AM

#

What plugin?

Send a photo of all your plugins

Wait my discord crashed when I use the built in mobile camera

#

quasi wharf May 9, 2024, 6:35 AM

#

Hmmm...

#

Actually, go back out of the folder, and just rename it to something else, like pluginsold

quasi wharf May 9, 2024, 6:36 AM

#

quasi wharf

After that delete the two folders in yellow

jolly crane May 9, 2024, 6:36 AM

#

I don't have two folders in yellow

#

quasi wharf May 9, 2024, 6:37 AM

#

#

I must be colour blind or something

#

I see blue and green

quasi wharf May 9, 2024, 6:38 AM

#

Your fine, it's the last two folders before config.ini

#

Also make sure you already switched back to Nintendo network, you can then attempt an update

jolly crane May 9, 2024, 6:42 AM

#

quasi wharf Your fine, it's the last two folders before config.ini

Isn't this green

#

I deleted these two files?

quasi wharf May 9, 2024, 6:43 AM

#

No don't delete those

jolly crane May 9, 2024, 6:43 AM

#

Ok

quasi wharf May 9, 2024, 6:43 AM

#

Delete just sysmodules and titles

#

Those two folders

jolly crane May 9, 2024, 6:44 AM

#

I deleted those two folders

quasi wharf May 9, 2024, 6:45 AM

Now press the home button and select the reboot option

jolly crane May 9, 2024, 6:46 AM

#

K

quasi wharf May 9, 2024, 6:46 AM

#

After that, go to system settings and show me your system version that's on the top right corner

jolly crane May 9, 2024, 6:48 AM

#

quasi wharf May 9, 2024, 6:48 AM

#

You need to update, latest version is 11.17

#

Go to other settings, scroll all the way down to system update

#

And press update

#

(updating is safe)

Not gonna work I was banned from Nintendo updates

#

I'm stuck

#

Doesn't work

quasi wharf May 9, 2024, 6:52 AM

#

Have you ever installed any custom home menu's or keyboards?

#

You can't be banned from updating, but if you ever installed any custom home menus, the updater breaks

#

Not a theme btw

jolly crane May 9, 2024, 6:55 AM

#

quasi wharf You can't be banned from updating, but if you ever installed any custom home men...

I accidentally connected to a Nintendo network with a dev app and I got banned from the Eshop.

And the updates or the Eshop stopped working for me afterwards.

quasi wharf May 9, 2024, 6:56 AM

#

Did you install the dev home menu by any chance?

jolly crane May 9, 2024, 6:56 AM

#

quasi wharf Did you install the dev home menu by any chance?

I didn't

quasi wharf May 9, 2024, 6:57 AM

#

Press X+Y on the home menu, if you see anything in the corner it means you have the dev home menu

jolly crane May 9, 2024, 6:57 AM

#

Wait... Enable game patching works again without any bugs...

quasi wharf May 9, 2024, 6:57 AM

#

It will work, however you can't use Pretendo without an update

#

Or else your gonna get more crashes...

#

What dev app did you install?

#

Also do you have a NAND backup?

jolly crane May 9, 2024, 6:58 AM

#

Some 3ds ones.

I have it on some old usb

There's your problem

Dev home menu breaks the updater

Ohh

quasi wharf May 9, 2024, 6:59 AM

You will need a clean home menu backup

jolly crane May 9, 2024, 7:00 AM

#

I can update using CTRtransfer right?

quasi wharf May 9, 2024, 7:00 AM

#

You could...that's more of the destructive way

jolly crane May 9, 2024, 7:00 AM

#

I might do it that way

quasi wharf May 9, 2024, 7:01 AM

#

You could if you want just make sure it's the right region
