Hey, maybe you have some insight. I have a 3rd hand ds 3d (got it from a neighbor who got it from someone else and so on…) that is “locked”? Do you know how to completely reset it to a factory state? My charger is packed in a box somewhere unfortunately so I can’t tell you the exact issue, but basically I want to have a “new” install and make our own account on it since we can’t currently
You can factory reset it by following this guide if you can still enter the settings menu. If you mean locked as in bricked then things are a bit more complicated. If you want to put custom firmware on it to run pirated games and/or emulate games for other systems then this guide is of great help.
It isn’t bricked. I was able to see some videos and pictures the old owners took with it and some things like that. It’s been quite a while since I tried messing with it so I don’t remember the specifics

you’ll have to reset the parental controls (mkey): https://wiki.hacks.guide/wiki/3DS:Remove_Parental_Controls
then you’ll be able to erase system data. Don’t bother with the “remove pin” option it is broken
Thank you very much! I’ll give that a try when I can get it charged up
