Luma3DS, GodMode9, Rosaline, Homebrew.
GodMode9 is basically a Swiss army knife file browser for the 3DS. In fact, there's also a version for NDS consoles as well. After going through the guide, systems normally continue to boot using the boot.firm Luma3DS file on the SD card root -- there's no reason to remove it. If people followed the big guide, they should not run into a situation where they cannot boot without an SD card inserted. 🤷‍♂️ GodMode9 can dump 3DS and NDS cartridge data, install .cia files, among many other things. It's an extremely important tool to have!

Godmode9 wont launch?
Was it the newest version of god mode 9 you used? Maybe try replacing the payload files with one of the older versions here?

So I got a new Nintendo 3ds XL and what is this? And how do I get rid of this?
That is GodMode9, a powerful full-access file browser for the Nintendo 3DS. Did your console boot to that when you turned it on? What happens when you press START?

Can't dump game cartridge because of missing .db files
I found a {thread from a year ago with about the same issue](https://github.com/d0k3/GodMode9/issues/694). They found that the issue was the system was brand new. I've been using this same 3ds since 2015. I doubt that's it. I did just buy a new SD card, but I copied everything over to my new one.

Any clue what does this mean?
This looks like an error with Luma3DS. You’ll need to manually update Luma again. Make sure you’re following this tutorial: Luma3DS GitHub. I’ve had this error before and it was fairly easy to fix :)

Can someone help?
Replace Luma files on your sd card, boot.firm and boot.3dsx. You can download them here.

Luma v13.0 on old 3DS XL, is it safe?
I have an old 3DS XL thats has been modified, and i was about to start the process of updating the console to firmware 11.17.0, by updating Luma first so it does not brick. But the first thing i've seen when getting to the Luma github page is a reported issue saying that last release of Luma (Luma 13.0) makes their 3DSXL console not even starting the HOME menu. Is it save to upgrade to Luma 13 having an old XL? I only have GodMode9 and i was about to upgrade it to last version (v2.1.1) as well. Thanks!
-
What does this mean?
First step, download the latest version of Luma 3DS ( just click on the .zip file, should be the top one when you scroll down ) , then extract it to the root of your SD card as explained by the guide

Upgrading to larger micro SD Card
You could make sure you have sysnand by enabling "show NAND or user string in system settings" in luma settings. (Hold select on startup). More info here https://github.com/LumaTeam/Luma3DS/wiki/Optional-features

Urgent help!!!!the thing is I modded my 2ds and while placing the sd card I placed it in opposite direction and the console won’t read the card anymore and without the boot file on the sd the console is bricked what can I do???
Solution? Get any compatible, temporary SD card and put the latest Luma3DS files on it -- it's just two files! boot.3dsx and boot.firm

So every time I do this exploit in the video below, it keeps giving me this screen. I followed the video instructions so I’m not sure what to do.
Download the latest version of luma3ds from here, extract the zip and copy boot.firm to your microsd card and see what happens. You should have version 12.1.
