How can I reverse this, I have tried to get ntrboot going but it just immediately boots to open_agb_firm instead of the B9S installer. Please help

dont quote me on this but I think Legally you are SOL you basically destroyed the firm that any boottime hack runs on and your only way to restore your system is by doing a hardware mod where you can directly manipulate the systems internal memory.

No, if you have a working ntrboot flashcard and it's flashed with ntrboot it should boot boot.firm from your 3DS SD card. Other than using ntrboot there isn't really a way to recover this. Maybe a hardmod.

If it's not booting from ntrboot then either something is up with your flash cart, your magnet, your key combo or you're missing the proper boot.firm on the SD

I got something else to happen but my hand slipped while doing it, going to keep trying but this is definitely going to be a pain in the ass, not least because my 3ds's card slot is really inconsistent.

Got around it?
