@CodeTalker Unknown. I bought it refurbed, and malloc problems were immediate. Usually, it'll crash to a hardware-based handler that just says "lol oops please restart", but as it's hacked, I get more info: access violations caused by bad bits or entire bytes of RAM being stuck at 00 or FF. (In C terms, think null deref, but it's caused by a bad RAM stick and not your code.)
My N3DS is currently on its way to its grave. I've had malloc issues since I got it, but recently buttons have begun to fail and it's begun to randomly hardlock, when it happens it's so badly locked up that even NMIs fail to get through.
Luckily, it's hacked, so I can decrypt and export everything now before it's totally toast.
Still feels bad, though... it's been the home of 2 DSi's worth of data for a while now as well as new stuff. It's got some emotional weight to it.
