Two updates:
First...
A few days ago someone on youtube told me that you can get the bottom screen working simply by attaching the cameras. But I have no idea if that's true. (EDIT: I just tried this and it didn't work. *shrug*)
Secondly...
MY SYSTEM STOPPED WORKING!! Help please!
Here's a run down of events:
- I haven't used the system in a while.
- Despite not using the system in a while, I order a new battery from Nintendo and replace the battery, and charge the system.
- Haven't used it for a week or two after that.
- I hear of a new system update that let's you change the home screen color to black. Excited over this, I turn on my system, connect to eshop, and start the download.
- A minute later I find my system is off. I check the eshop and it prompts me for an update still. (either it is a second update or the first one failed and I had to do it again)
- I turn off the system, charge it fully, then turn it on to try installing the second update. However, the screen goes dark after a few seconds.
- I power off the system then power on, the screen does not even work.
- If I squint and tilt the screen almost 90 degrees, I can see the home screen, but pressing the dpad does nothing. So it is as though the backlight is out and the screen is frozen. There are vertical bars on the screen too.
- I power off then on the system, now the screen is just black.
- I wondered if the new battery caused it. I switch back to the old battery. No luck. Still doesn't work. I try each battery twice, to no avail.
