How do I get the FBI thing needed?
Just download fbi from this links: https://github.com/Steveice10/FBI/releases/download/2.6.1/FBI.3dsx
- 3DS SD Card corrupted, need to start from scratch with a new SD card.

HELP!!!
Basically, you'll want to download the .Cia and .3dsx files for FBI from the FBI GitHub. Open a default installed app that you never use (the AR one for me). Then press L+Dpad down+select to open the Rosalina menu. In the Rosalina menu select "Miscellaneous options" then "Switch the hb. title to the current app". Next close the Rosalina menu, close and reopen the app. It will open as the homebrew launcher. At this point you can open the FBI.3dsx from the homebrew launcher and use it to install the FBI.cia. You'll be up and running and be able to install whatever you need at this point. I recommend the Universal-Updater to open up your options.

Qr code install not working
no, the browser doesn't support downloading files. scan this qr in fbi to install latest (2.6.1), this is plain http, which should be fine for old fbi, and the same cia as official one, you can decode the qr to get the cia to verify it if you concern about it

I recently took a Nintendo 3ds and yesterday it started showing me this error and I don't know how to fix it, I look on the internet how to fix it but I didn't find anything related to this error which it shows me every time I turn on the console. Pls help 😣
If the same error is displayed, I'd suggest reinstalling FBI (taking for granted everything else works fine), you'll need the Homebrew Launcher (that I hope you already have on your console), the latest fbi.3dsx file in your SD card root and the latest fbi.cia file preferably in the cia folder of the SD card. https://github.com/Steveice10/FBI/releases/tag/2.6.1

why use twilight menu++ when hshop exists ?
That shouldn't be needed — old versions of 3DShell like 4.3.1 have a built-in FTP server, so any computer, tablet or smartphone can use a FTP program to transfer the games onto the 3DS. You just have to pay attention to which folders you're putting the files into.

How to take a screenshot in game on a 2ds?
There is also an homebrew app, Screenshot Merge, that merges the two images into one, adding black borders to the 4:3 bottom screen to adjust to the 5:3 top screen resulting in a single rectangular image, that can also be easily viewed as intended (top image on top screen and bottom image on bottom screen at the same time) on 3DShell - both apps can be found on Universal-Updater if you have it.

badge help
Most probably you downloaded the beta (v5.0.0), which does not have FTP support until the developer releases a stable version. Uninstall it and then install this version (4.3.1), which is the latest stable one.
