Removing ntrboot
Once a flashcart has been flashed with ntrboot it is typically no longer usable as a DS flashcart (with the exception of certain flashcarts such as the Acekard 2i). It is possible to restore a flashrom file back to an ntrboot compatible flashcart to return it to it’s previous functionality. If you followed the ntrboot guide, you should have a copy of the flashrom backup.

To remove ntrboot from your flashcart you will need:
- A flashcard that has been flashed with ntrboot
- A hacked DSi/3DS running ntrboot flasher in order to restore the flashrom backup to the flashcard
- A flashrom backup of your flashcart. If you followed the ntrboot flashing guide, you should have this as a
.bin
file in thentrboot
folder from your flashcart MicroSD card or DSi/3DS SD card - If you do not have this backup, you may download the corresponding flashrom backup for your flashcart from the 3ds.hacks.guide ntrboot guide. These are available as magnet links and require torrent client like qBittorrent or Deluge to download them

Troubleshooting #
In some cases, the restore may fail. This may be due to either an incorrect flashrom backup file, or your flashcard may be incompatible with the restore. ntrboot uses a hardcoded name for restoring flashrom backups. If you renamed the .bin
file and do not have the original name, you can create a flash dump which will create a .bin
file of the correct name of which you can then use to rename your flashrom backup.
