Hello, i recently picked up a 3DS XL and when i open the camera the viewfinder on the top screen is black and after 1 minute (or swapping to inner camera) freezes the system, i could replace it but i want to make sure that it isn't a software issue before doing that. Any help is appreciated, thanks.

The easiest way to rule out a software issue is safe mode. Boot the 3ds holding L + R + A + D-pad up (not the circle pad), and you should boot into a system update screen. Go through the prompts, and check the camera when you're done. If it still freezes, you can try a system format, which should fix anything safe mode can't. Past that, it's a hardware issue

How i holding L+R+A+D-pas up and I don't know how.
It’s still dosent work and the device crashing by changing it back to back side or taking a photo/video
The most likely issue is the camera connector came loose. If you’re comfortable opening the unit you can reseat the camera flex cable and try to reassemble and test again.

Can I do this safely even if I have a Luma 3ds on it?
