Some time ago I was planning to sell my NDSi, so I reset it because I wanted the next buyer to receive it in factory settings. At the time, I didn't know much about how the system worked and thought that resetting the console would completely restore it to its original state.

After resetting it, everything seemed normal. However, a few days later I changed my mind and decided that I didn't want to sell it anymore. Because of that, I tried to mod (unlock) the NDSi again.

I followed a YouTube guide since I had already used a guide from the same channel before to mod my N3DS XL, and it worked perfectly at that time. But this time I ran into a problem. When I tried to launch Unlaunch, the screen “nocash Unlaunch - DSi v2.0” appeared.

Since I didn't understand much about the system at the time, I panicked and thought I had bricked my console. Because of that, I stopped touching it for a while.

Recently I decided to try fixing it again. I started following the DSi Guide step by step and only used the YouTube video to help me understand some parts of the guide. While doing that, I noticed that the console was skipping some steps because Unlaunch was already installed.

After repeating the process carefully, I finally understood what was happening and managed to solve the problem.

While researching, I also noticed that many other people had the same issue with the Unlaunch screen. The solution is actually simple: just follow the DSi Guide completely. The guide already covers many possible issues and explains how to solve them.

So if someone else runs into this problem, my advice is to carefully follow the guide from start to finish.

Sorry for my English.
