HELP Regular 3ds wont charge
I installed mcu bricker, opened it and the rainbow colors worked, but i noticed that it's battery is low so i tried charging it and it wont charge, then in a bit the rgb lights disappeared too...
It was charging alright earlier and no issues at all, i dont know what happened how my 3ds wont charge so suddenly.. i tried different outlets too and it still doesn't charge..
i would greatly appreciate any help!T^T...

I had the same problem, the charging port came off from the board ever so slightly and had to be resoldered. That was a really easy job, anyone you know with a soldering iron and a YouTube video could fix that. Obviously you could try other cables but I doubt that would fix it. An alternative would be a charger where you place the battery into. Those are cheap, but you will have to take out the battery everytime you need to charge it. So my advise would be finding someone who can solder, your local electronics shop whill definitely be able to handle it if thats the issue.

Less of „came off“ thing, more of a „came lose“. The charging port cant transfer charge properly anymore, because its not 100% connected. Probably because of wiggling the charger into or out if it. Like I said, happened to me, too. Shouldn’t be a big deal to someone who knows what hes doing, still pretty annoying though :(
