-RECENT NEWS-
>3DS
-10.4 WHEN– January 11th? Be advised:
--->http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2016/01/extended_nintendo_network_maintenance_on_the_way
-Can no longer download Ironfall 1.0
-Browser/Menuhax both work on the latest firmware again! DON'T DELAY in getting Homebrew.
-memchunkhax2 is a kernel11 exploit that allows downgrading to 9.2, and works on every firmware including 10.3.

>Is downgrading safe?
Safe as it gets for now. Most bricks seem to be people using the wrong firmware. Be sure you understand the process.
-This weekend could be the perfect time to try this. Right now soft bricks can restore by update, but what happens when it's 10.4?
-A libkhax variant of mch2 sysUpdater compiled by julian20 implements the safest settings so far
-Getting the downgrader to even start can require many tries, especially with New 3DS. Opening and closing an FTP app supposedly helps.
-Blank screen can be caused by Menuhax. Try pulling your SD card if you get it. Boot, reinsert, change theme.

>Wii U
-Apparently, the Wii U and 3DS use the same fucking keys... LOL
-Hykem is being weird.

>Vita
-Cobra Black Fin was announced. http://wololo.net/2015/12/07/cobra-black-fin-an-upcoming-dongle-to-play-ps-vita-isos/
-A Vita update got released, you might not want to update since it fixes the email exploit.

rxTools doesn't support n3ds unless you use 3.0 which is shit.

I ran into a problem.

Following the retard guide, I get to launching sysupdater. Every time it loads into it I am getting a black frozen screen. I tried turning off the wifi out of being desperate to try anything, and I get options, but even then it is still frozen. I just can't understand what is going on. I followed the steps and even double checked them. I just don't get it, any ideas?

It's been like this an hour, I feel like giving up.
>>
So I did this a few days ago but didn't follow the pastebin guide, I used an entirely different method, involving booting a Gateway launcher (despite not having the card) and then installing the EmuNAND that way.

Everything is working, except that it boots into the sysnand and I have to use the Nintendo DS Profile option to enter my EmuNAND with RxTools, plus I still need to use the browserhax to run Homebrew Channel.

How do I get something like the guide has, which I press L or whatever and I can choose what to boot into? HBC/Emunand/etc.

Any ideas?
>>
>>128069326
check boot.cfg. does it say it's loading brew.3dsx when you select homebrew launcher?

If so, try downloading this and rename it to "brew.3dsx" instead: https://mega.nz/#!WB0yVDQA!PwkTzA3686cQLs9uCByMVMc0FZic8tPy8xfpu63aaBs

I'm trying to update my emuNAND to 10.3. I unlinked my NANDs and all that, but when I went to update (RX-E was in the corner so I know I was in emuNAND), it failed and restarted my 3DS. My 3DS is still 9.2, but my emuNAND did not update. I have two questions.

1. Did my NANDs unlink?
2. How am I supposed to update my emuNAND?

so I just downgraded my japanese New 3DS. It booted fine but system settings say it's 9.1.0-20J instead of 9.2

and yes, I'm sure I downloaded "9.2.0-20J(Full)_n3DS"

kinda weird but shouldn't be a problem right, can still do the same stuff as 9.2, correct?
>>
>>128070060
Is the wording in the guide confusing or did you just fuck up?

I think multiple people have done this so I should change the wording somehow...

I'm on O3DS, should I use Cakes or rxTools?

>>128070204
Yeah, the downgrade pack is mislabeled for some reason. There's no functional difference between 9.1 and 9.2.

The wording is slightly confusing, I would probably suggest breaking it into a step inbetween or simply adding a warning here.

It's not SO confusing after the fact, but I'm now slightly drunk so yeah.

you have menuhax autobooting on both sys and emunand so it loops like crazy

remove menuhax from emunand and it'll work
>>
>>128070182
But isn't menuhax just to boot HBC? Or can it or HBC itself boot me straight into the EmuNAND too?

Besides, my sysnand is on 4.2, so I'm not sure how to even launch HBC through it.

Doe anyone have the rxtools september 28th nightly already prebuilt?
I don't use linux and this GCC thing is not working on my computer. I just need the 5 files.
Is it different for each person? Why do you have to go through that trouble anyway, when they could just release the files? I don't understand.
>>
>>128070310
Sounds like you didn't unlink your NANDs, which you need to do to be able to autoboot. Also, you can't autoboot rxTools 2.6.
>>
>>128070223
I think it's the wording.
Took your post and I think something like this is more clear:

>Copy everything from the SD card backup back over.
>After you copy everything back over, rename the boot.3dsx (on the sd card) to brew.3dsx and then copy the boot.3dsx (from the zip download in step 1) to the sd card root

nope. You can autoboot/coldboot with linked nands. Just can't use themes when you coldboot with linked nands.

why THE FUCK does menuhax keep stopping working? I get so far down the CFW list, and EVERY TIME at some point menuhax and browserhax decide not to work and I have to start over. Every goddamn time! Why is this happening?

>>128070612
>They're unlinked senpai
Actually, the other anon is right. It's just that I unlinked mine by formatting sysNAND, which removes menuhax.
>>128070729
I'm not sure about it myself, but the guide in the pastebin says you need to unlink them.
>>
>>128070585
The guide I followed told me to downgrade from 9.2 using the Gateway thing, it's now on 4.2.

So I'm forever going to have to boot my EmuNAND through the settings menu before I get to everything? No way to boot it faster from 4.2?
>>
>>128070565
>>128070369

15) Switch the console off
Copy/Paste your SD card backup from your PC to the SD card (select replace all if there are any matches)
16) Rename the "boot.3dsx" on the SD card to "brew.3dsx"
Now place the "boot.3dsx" (from the zip you downloaded in step 1) into the root of your SD card.

Better?

>>
>>128070802
when you installed menuhax you configured it to autboot and had to set a button to press in case you wanted to prevent the autoboot, remember?

so when rxtools loads and you go into a black screen (when it's starting emunand) hold that button (default is L) and it will take you to the home menu of emunand. Then just go to switch to any theme to uninstall menuhax
>>
>>128070816
Do you still have the backup you made from earlier?

Take the boot.3dsx from there
Rename it to brew.3dsx
Put it on your SD card in the root, overwriting the one that is there.

If the size comparison helps at all the PROPER one is a little under 1MB, the wrong one is 5.3~ MB

>>128070902
Perfect.
>>
>>128070856
Huh, I'm on linked nands and the only thing I can't do while coldbooting is use themes. but I'd assume most people would unlink them for the sake of it and incase they fuck up and accidentally update sysnand or some shit. Extra sake of mind I guess.
But yeah, it's definitely possible to coldboot with linked nands.
>>
>>128070814
menuhax will stop working if you format sysNAND. browsehax shouldn't stop working, but it is pretty shit and takes a lot of attmpts (tap the far left side of the slider)

>>128071029

>>128071004
Sorry, I'm retarded. I had to install it again, obviously, since CTR uses menuhax.
>>
>>128070068
Can anyone help me? I think my NANDs are still unlinked because when I exit out of emuNAND System Settings, it takes me to the sysNAND menu which looks different. Should I just try updating my emuNAND again? I'm worried that it may have linked my NANDs back together or something. I'm currently in the RX-E System Settings.
>>
>>128070973
I can still use RxTools and FBI on sysnand, so maybe I could try upgrading to 9.2 with FBI?

Or would that fuck up something else on the EmuNAND? AHHHH this is so confusing.
>>

>>128071029
Did your computer finish writing to the SD card before you ejected it?

So I fucked up and didn't install FBI before I unlinked my NANDs, how can I get FBI and HBlauncher loader on my emunand? Just boot into emunand, use browserhax to load homebrew, and install FBI and HBLauncher that way?
>>
>>128070223
>>128070565
>>128070902
Forgot to ask:

After line 138, my SD card has two things on it:
>EmuNAND9 folder
>boot.3dsx

The next step says to carry everything over, but I am not sure if I am overwriting the files already on the SD card with the files in the backup, since both folders have an emuNAND9 folder and a boot.3dsx file.

hold L *just* after you get out of rx tools. this should boot emunand WITHOUT menuhax. Change the theme once to break menuhax on emunand.

You will also need to do some shit with the title.db etc stuff before you can install apps with FBI

how do i install menuhax once more? homebrew launcher or rxtools won't boot, and doing the browserhax opens rxtools, and i didn't see any option to install menuhax from it

So what size sd card should i get? I downgraded to 9.2 but i only have a 2gb card and a 4gb card thats not formated with the 3ds but im guessing thats too small, gonna go buy a bigger one tomorrow. Should i first do everything then do the copy method for a bigger card?

I was using Julian's sysUpdater, but I kept getting this error
I switched to TuxSH, and I didn't get the error, btu after I hit Y on sysUpdater, it just stayed there for about 5 minutes.
I worried I had bricked it, so I shut it off and turned it back on
It's functioning, now, but I don't know if I want to downgrade it after that. Maybe I'll just wait for a better release before I gamble with my N3DS
>>
>>128072976
are you auto-booting? then you likely changed the boot.3dsx file to something else (boot_hb.3dsx or some shit). You need to find the hblauncher payload on your sdcard, open it with any editor, find "boot.3dsx" and change it to whatever you renamed it to.

Is it normal if, sometimes when entering the System Settings from emuNAND, it brings me to the sysNAND settings instead? It seems very bizarre because, as far as I can tell, my NANDs are unlinked still (the gift wrap glitch isn't showing up and exiting the emuNAND settings screen when I actually reach it takes me to the sysNAND home menu), but on occasion, the emuNAND System Settings will take me to the sysNAND settings for some reason. What the hell is going on?

200GB

You can squeak by with an 8gb, but you'll have to learn how to uninstall games and I haven't seen any anons mention that yet so maybe not much guides and stuff.

You can get sandisk 64 gb for $20, so that's what I went with.

Also there are 8gb no-name, blank suspicious ones on ebay for ~$3.50. I've used them for mp3 and they work fine, just dunno if I'd trust them with a pokemon save etc. Stay away from blank/shitty ebay cards for anything over 8gb, had problems with a 32gb one.

And one anon posted a link to a sorta-legit looking chinese brand 128gb for $30 on amazon.

I'M STARTING TO PICNIC

I'm about in the middle of hacking my O3DS with a 4GB SD card, I know I'll need a bigger one so I ordered a 32GB SD card off Amazon.

Thing is, the 32GB one won't arrive until Monday.
So, can I still continue hacking the 3DS with my 4GB SD card, then once the 32GB one comes in the mail, transfer everything from the 4 to the 32?

Yes, you'll be able to downgrade, that's what's important. Do that and then wait for your card.
>>
Has anyone here converted .cias themselves? Is the end result .cia supposed to be like half the size of the original .3ds?

How much time it takes to downgrade?, I pressed Y and it started to install stuff, went to pee and when coming back I only see a black screen on my o3ds.
>>
>>128073118

Assuming your using the guide for retards:

brew.3dsx is just the hb launchers boot.3dsx file

If your really confused, download the starter.zip again and rename the boot.3dsx from there to brew.3dsx

yes, that's supposed to happen. leaving system settings results in a soft reboot. hold your menuhax trigger when leaving system settings to get back to emunand

You said if you have a homebrew launcher skip this step. I did and went to B. However I read the part I skipped after failing a lot, and saw that the very next line that I skipped told me I needed menuhax installed as well. You need to change it to say only by having both homebrew launcher and menuhax, skip this step.

up to 128gb with the correct format of FAT32 and 32kb cluster size

If you already have your microSD working in your 3DS or want to keep your contents, you of course skip this step. This only needs to be done if you set up a new microSD.
Find a microSD of desired size. I used a SanDisk 64GB Ultra SDXC but any good brand should do the job.
The card needs to be formatted to FAT32. If using a SDHC (up to 32GB) you can just use Windows' own right-click on drive format tool for that.
If you have a larger SDXC, Windows won't let you format it to FAT32, so use a tool called guiformat
Simply select your drive letter which is your microSD and click Start
Put the card in your N3DS and start it. This creates the \Nintendo 3DS folder.

yeah it's fine
>>
>>128073920
o3ds? 4gb is enough to get emunand going too. just doesn't leave much room for games.
emunand creates a 1gb (o3ds) partition on your sdcard, leaving you with 3 (ish) leftover.
>>
Since nobody appears to have a solution for my problem, can i just format my card to start over our do i need special steps? I got up to the point where you unlink the NANDs.

New to this, tried downgrading to 9.2 on 3DS and was successful, started setting up CFW by following this pastebin: http://pastebin.com/ndvW5Aji

Everything was going great until I installed TinyFormat to the Home screen and ran it, at which point my 3DS reset like it was fresh out of the box, forgetting my language/internet settings/miis/etc. My firmware is still 9.2. Where did I fuck up?

I kind of figured something was up when FBI wasn't installed to the home screen properly but I was too excited to double-check. I can just run all the steps from the beginning again, right?
>>
>>128073920
You can still go through the process. However, 4GB is not very much if you plan to install many games. Just create a disk image of your 4GB and then restore your image on the 32GB because copy+paste will not work

4.2 guy here, I just remembered my last NAND backup was from 9.2!

Yeah, they changed it all the way back in 2013 or something when they added proper SDXC support. It barely even mentions it, it just says "yep it's compliant with standards" (which happen to say ExFAT for SDXC cards because leeching money with patents). Only thing that even mentions it is the manual saying that you need the ExFAT driver for SDXC cards.

>>128074916
Yep, the only thing you need to know is that downgrading a 2DS or any of its components (MSET) below 6.0 is a very bad idea. Stick to 9.2 + Menuhax, don't go off into retard Gateway downgrading land.

I keep getting soft bricked while downgrading, I haven't gotten any other problem while doing this, didn't get frozen before browserhax, didn't get a "failed to get CIA file info", and the reboot when it "downgrades" is almost exactly 10 seconds, maybe even less

You can technically use FBI to delete them from the NAND but there's no point, it won't get you any usable free space. EmuNAND is fixed size and you can't install games in there. Just put them in a folder on the other side of the menu or whatever.

I'm in the final steps.

To the point when where I should be able to install games after getting Big Blue running.

Every time I try to load Pasta or HomeBrew through BootManager, I just go staight to red screen, rxtools works fine. I am still able to get to HomeBrew if needed by going straight to brew.3dsx in the files of the BootManager, but I'm unsure if theres a way to click into Pasta yet as I haven't gotten into it sucessfully. From what I understand I need to to, if I want to install games.

Any ideas on how to reroute this out?

Hey, so I'm using this guide for downgrading a Japanese O3DS: http://pastebin.com/EBKipkPW and it tells me that I should delete a file named '000400102002CA00.cia' from the folder that gets unzipped from the Japanese Mega link or else enjoy a hard brick.

Problem is, the file wasn't listed in the Mega link at all when I downloaded it. Can any other Moon machine downgraders confirm that means it's safe to continue? Or did the guide's writer get the filename hex wrong?

Almost guaranteed to be lower than 9.2. If it is, you can just skip all of the bullshit downgrading. Set up CFW via the browser first, upgrade to 9.2 for Menuhax autoboot later (using a guide that will repeatedly tell you to use devmode/pastamode when you run sysUpdater).

I hate to ask for help a third time, but I'm apparently retarded.
I'm following the retard's guide and had been doing since before he updated today. The last thing I did was separate my NAND's. I had some trouble getting the browser exploit to trigger, but I finally got it which booted some menu where I could choose rxTools or Homebrew. Homebrew was giving me an error and I saw that I probably renamed the wrong files or something, so I fixed that. Now homebrew launches and I reinstall menuhax. L works on startup, but it goes straight to homebrew and I can no longer access rxTools to update emuNAND. Can someone help me? I just want to play Rhythm Heaven..

>>128079662

he still hasn't updated with the important stuff you need to do after unlinking your nands.

Basically -
1. change boot.3dsx BACK to the homebrew one
2. boot to sysnand, use browserhax to get into HBL, set up type 2 menuhax again
3. turn off, change boot.3dsx to ctr manager thing again
4. As soon as the rxtools stuff is done, hold the button that cancels menuhax type 2 (usually L if you follow the guides exactly)
5. Change theme once in emunand to break emunand menuhax
6. Do some shit with your .db files . Basically you go to Nintendo 3ds/random_numbers_n_shit1/randomnumbers2/

and create a folder named "dbs". inside this folder you create two blank files "import.db" and "title.db" . It's super easy on linux, somewhere out there is a dbs.zip file floating around if you're retarded and/or a winbabby.

after that you can place .cia files anywhere on your sd card (i usually make a /cia folder just for convenience), and launch health and safety which is actually FBI in disguise

Yes, we do. TLDR: missing encryption keys that the system uses during boot to decrypt part of the firmware and then intentionally forgets about (it's actually a layer or two worth of keys more than that but that's the non-overly-techspeak version). That was a preventive measure they added on N3DS, it doesn't exist on O3DS.

Pros: Shit PPI makes Genesis & Snes look great with a scanline effect

Better control feel overall - easier to use d-pad for emulator without hand cramping, can hit shoulder buttons comfortably.

Can actually play DMG, GBC, GBA, DS games at 1x scale without them being super tiny

Cons: Shit PPI makes 3ds games look worse

Less pocketable, Heavy

Stupid microSD position (under back cover)


I like the n3ds XL for emulators and for long play sessions for demanding 3ds that otherwise make my hands cramp up.

I have a small o3ds that feels much more portable. I want to get a small US n3ds and add it to my stable as well for super portable emu etc, even if the screen ends up being really small at 1x.

I don't see any point in the o3ds XL and wouldn't get one unless I found a killer deal.

It is very possible, but requires a donor N3DS' "SecureInfo_A"

You CAN flash it to NAND, but you're better off making another EmuNAND partition on a different SD card, because that's safer.
>>
>>128081454
Error 4 means the firmware file wasn't found on the SD card. You probably either gave a too recent nightly a firmware.bin instead of a firm directory, or you put it in the wrong place. Error 4 is definitely user error regardless.

(I know >>128078816 has been having the same issues).

Huh, not sure if this is progress, but skipping the step that says "rename boot.3dsx to brew.3dsx" and booting results in the installation of grid launcher.

anyone have experience or know a guide that uses gridlauncher? Looks like it has a couple of apps called Cakes and FBI, which I know are involved with the hacking process, but since I am now apparently diverging from one guide, I'm hoping someone here knows what I could do with either of these?

Preferably if there's a guide somewhere that'd be very helpful.

>Huh, not sure if this is progress, but skipping the step that says "rename boot.3dsx to brew.3dsx" and booting results in the installation of grid launcher.
That's because you confused your boot.3dsx for HBL. Get HBL boot.3dsx again from the starter pack.

HomeMenuHax just tries to look for "boot.3dsx" on root and boots whatever it is

RxTools and Gateway are two separate CFWs, like Cakes and Pasta

If you want to boot more than one CFW, use CTRBootManager or put the CFW .3dsx in /3ds/ and load via coldboot HBL

>>128082103
Install to SD, not NAND. Firm patches go to NAND.

>>128082223
I think there's some confusion here: CTRBootManager has a boot.3dsx itself, which allows you to run other boot.3dsx programs like the HBL boot.3dsx

Because you can't have both on root at the same time, you should rename the HBL one to boot_hb.3dsx, because that's what it's set to by default in CTRBootManager's boot.cfg
>>
>>128082223
Okay so is menuhax installed?
Get the ctrboot files from https://gbatemp.net/threads/ctrbootmanager-3ds-boot-manager-loader-homemenuhax.398383/
Take the boot.3dsx from this and put in on root along with the boot.cfg
Now take the boot.3dsx you got from the HB starter kit and rename it to bhbl.3dsx
Open the boot.cfg using notepad and rename the homebre section to boot bhbl.3dsx

how confused r u bb?

>>
>>128082103
When you buy a legitimate game from the eShop, you get a signature from Nintendo cryptographically validating that your particular 3DS can play whatever game you bought (a ticket). The system checks this every time you want to play it, and actually the ticket also contains the game's encryption key.

CFW removes that check, amongst doing other things. It just allows any ticket from any system to work as well as ones that just weren't signed by Nintendo.

"Legit" .cia files have a signature saying "any damn 3DS can play this game", but those signatures exist ONLY for games that ship preinstalled. You can in fact install those and keep them later.
>>
>>128078057
Please help
>>
>>128080664

I forgot one step - after you put those blank .db files on your sd card, autoboot to emunand as normal and then you need to go to system settings>data management > nintendo 3ds > software. It will tell you the files are corrupt, then rebuild them for you in a way that will work.

If you don't do this you'll get a weird error right at the end of the FBI install process.

It is safe, but even if it wasn't truly 100% safe consider that Nintendo will very likely patch browserhax on 10.4, making it significantly more difficult to downgrade (or at least requires you to buy some kind of physical thing to do it/more waiting)

delete your internet connection settings just to be safe.

If you have the day off tomorrow I'd still recommend you do the downgrade then, just in case you fuck something up and softbrick.

You're either not using the rxTools version in the guide, you're using a N3DS (the guide and firmware download bat is O3DS-only, that version of rxTools barely functions on N3DS) or the firmware.bin isn't in the right place.

I mean, it ended up working anyway. Menuhax wasn't working for some reason, despite me swapping themes before attempting. Whatever, it's done.

>>128082582
Yea, but if I softbricked before then, I'd be fine. After the patch I may be stuck in NEVER EVER land probably and be shit outta luck. Never actually been softbricked, the exploit seems pretty safe to me if you're not retarded, like everything else here.

I bought another 3DS back when 9.3=> was NEVER EVER territory, so this one wasn't imperative to not brick or downgrade. It's just something I can do to make it more valuable if I ever decide to sell it. What I'll probably do is install CFW and a library of games on it, then loan it out to my friends to pursuade them to get their own, or use it at parties to start Download Play games for Mario Kart or whatever you can use it with.

Don't update N3DS to 10.3: It can only get up to 9.5

To update to 9.5 emunand use sysupdater.cia by profi200. Get the proper pack for your region, make a backup of EmuNAND with EmuNAND Tool, and run sysupdater.cia while in EmuNAND, pressing A to update

To get N3DS on eShop you must spoof NVER/TIGER: https://gbatemp.net/threads/tutorial-how-to-access-nnid-and-eshop-on-9-5-0-23-emunand.407714/

Softbricks can actually happen quite easily, I have a system that softbricks every damn time, using the right files and all. Downgrading to 9.6 works, any lower and it softbricks. I'd format it but there's some data for games that can't be backed up with svdt and I'm drowning in 3DS consoles as-is anyway.

My best guess is that it's something related to the 9.6+ encryption that only affects certain consoles.

>I got no idea.

Your NANDs aren't fully unlinked. Back up EmuNAND and the /Nintendo 3DS/ folder, format emunand in emunand system settings, re-inject your EmuNAND backup and put the /Nintendo 3DS/ folder back (deleting the new one your EmuNAND generated)

Anyway for themes: Pack a .cia with Howling Theme Tool and install to SD on EmuNAND

>I'm not fucking around with custom themes since it disabled my menuhax even though I installed it through homebrew.

oh. Well my US n3dsXL was a breeze comparatively speaking, I followed this guide:

https://gbatemp.net/threads/tutorial-setting-up-9-0-9-2-n3ds-xl-for-rxtools-cfw-including-emunand-coldboot-cia-manager.405589/

I mean it still took 3-4 hours, but the instructions are very thorough. The only hard part is dealing with those shitty free_download_exe type sites, but once you get all the files together you're good to go. I followed those steps exactly and it worked right away. I had to do a bunch of detective work with my o3ds, as evidenced by my two addendum posts.

DISCLAIMER:

I have not taken it online, installed any DLC, English translation patches, out of region games etc yet. I have confirmed that I can autoboot to a menu full of pirated games from my region and it makes me very happy.

Ok /hbg/, please hear me out
To downgrade my new3ds I had to format it, so I made a back up before doing so.

Now after making an emunand, can I put my very old files of my sd into it again?
>>
>>128083634
I haven't had that problem, no. Did you use TinyFormat to format SysNAND?

If so, your NANDs aren't fully unlinked. Back up EmuNAND and the /Nintendo 3DS/ folder, format emunand in emunand system settings, re-inject your EmuNAND backup and put the /Nintendo 3DS/ folder back (deleting the new one your EmuNAND generated)

Otherwise, I'm actually not sure. Try running the Fix Tool in the same folder as the actual howling theme tool and pack another .cia

>>128083606

reformat your SD to FAT32

everything past the 9.2 downgrade is completely reversible by doing that

>>128083929
If you want to boot into EmuNAND, the emulated OS on your SD card, you need what's called a Custom FirmWare (CFW)

However, there's more than one CFW available, so we use a boot.3dsx program called CTRBootManager so it redirects us to each one of the CFWs

HomeMenuHax is an exploit that executes sdmc:/boot.3dsx the moment you power on the console
>>

GBA games won't run on emuNAND, not even ambassador games, but NES, SNES and Gameboy games work fine. I'm running emuNAND through CakesFW and using an O3DS f it helps.

>Did you use TinyFormat to format SysNAND?
>If so, your NANDs aren't fully unlinked.

I never used TinyFormat and I've formated my sys and emu NANDs at least once. Everything is working, my eshop works, everything. I'm positive I'm completely unlinked.

(also I've never heard of the NANDs not being completely unlinked when using TinyFormat)

I think the problem is the .cia itself.
The first .cia I made I installed via FBI, it only showed one theme out of all of them.

So I installed it again but through Blue Menu. They all show up but the themes are mixed up.

Its a dumb theory but would what I uploaded in FBI be conflicting with what I uploaded with Blue Menu, maybe they imported the .cia to different locations? Did blue properly overwrite the .cia? I'm not sure how to check

I feel like this guide for retards isn't quite low enough for retards, or I found some bullshit no one's talked about yet. Yes I am using an original model.

I've been repeating from step 7 hoping the thing would work, and it constantly keeps freezing so I shut down, but somehow the homebrew thing stopped coming up after a few reboots, and I had to reinstall it. This has happened twice on me now and the downgrader consistently freezes.

Do I just have shit luck, or is there some step I missed that wasn't written down and assumed somehow?

Hence why I said "seems." I've personally never had anything bad happen, so waitfagging on this one was worthwhile. Did anyone actually hardbrick on this exploit? Sucks to be them, since the overwhelming majority probably don't have NAND backups.

As for your problems with the 9.6 encryption, shit sux. Don't know what to tell you.
>>
>>128084268
if you actually care about the technical shit:

when you open eshop it does some fuckery to the /dbs/ folder somewhere in the encrypted (difficult to read without nintendo key) /Nintendo 3DS/ folder, which is where all the .cias are installed to

by fixing that folder, it lets the .cias know how to properly install within that folder (and you should be installing all your games/themes/updates "To SD" in FBI

People hardbricked a lot in the early days when the original sysUpdater build uninstalled the entire damn system before it did anything and failed to actually start installing like a third of the time. The builds released by Steve, TuxSH & especially Julian have dramatically improved behavior and only do it one thing at a time, recovery mode first.

The latest though, hardbricks are really only caused by people fucking up by installing wrong region or wrong system type shit.

If O3DS: Only in EmuNAND. Open EmuNAND System Settings, make SURE the version number says "RX-E 9.something" or similar, go straight to update without exiting.
If N3DS: NO, you can only go up to 9.5 through sysUpdater and an update pack, and that's as high as it can go for now.

How exactly does one install homebrew for Emunand?

I can boot into menuhax if I rename files so it doesn't kick into RXTools, but uh..it targets sysnand if I do that OR if I select homebrew loader from the command menu from Ctrlbootmanager.

Upgrade to 10.3 literally RIGHT NOW FAGGOT

Use the pastebin for retards: http://pastebin.com/EBKipkPW

The only real URGENT thing you need to do is use browserhax to install menuhax. The very first part of pastebin covers this and is applicable to your n3ds as well.

It's still best if you do the 9.2 downgrade tomorrow, but not absolutely necessary.

Once you're on 9.2, you have as long as you like to set up the custom piracy firmware: https://gbatemp.net/threads/tutorial-setting-up-9-0-9-2-n3ds-xl-for-rxtools-cfw-including-emunand-coldboot-cia-manager.405589/

This happened twice. After the second time I reinstalled it finally decided to respond after pressing Y and everything went fine to downgrade.

The weird bit was just that the guide never mentioned that the homebrew launcher suddenly deciding it no longer wished to load. No idea why.

Worst case, you reformat your SD card and you're back at 9.2, minty fresh and ready to start over with this guide: http://pastebin.com/EBKipkPW

I had to reformat twice before I finally got it

Absolutely no need to do the update firmware your sysnand. You CAN use "system format" if you're paranoid, that'll just re-do the initial setup (language, parental controls, etc).

As long as your sysnand is 9.2 everything from here out is completely reversible with a simple SD format

>>128086156

If it weren't obvious, the /3ds/ folder is where all your apps for HBL go, including Gateway Launcher if you want to restore NAND.bin back into sysnand or dumping cart games/saves

Haven't done this myself, but are you making sure you're installing your smash stuff to the proper NAND you're booting to, and are you installing them "To SD Card"?

If you're using FBI, press L to change install destination to SD card

If you're using DevMenu/BBM you shouldn't have to worry about that

But yeah I wonder if Smash requires you installing the DLC stuff to SysNAND SD too. Give it a shot, maybe? If that doesn't work, delete (backup in case fuckup i guess) the sysnand folder from /Nintendo 3DS/ so you clean up the wasted space: sysnand will just make a new one

Do NOT install the updates to SysNAND NAND because that is highly dangerous. Only to SD card.

In EmuNAND, try visiting System Settings, Data Management>3DS>Software and see if that does anything. Mind you, closing System Settings will boot you back into SysNAND. Just a typical CFW bug but heads up

So I did everything up to installing some CIA on my 3ds but I was lacking some space, so I decided to delete my 3ds downloaded games from my SD card via my computer (I have a backup, I figured I'd be fine, and that I'd be able to re-download them from my updated Emunand if it didn't work out)

And so it turns out there was something in the Nintendo3ds folder that fucked up my CFW and everything, does anyone know what the fuck happened that fucked up? And what would be the easiest way to recover

Yes, but I don't think you can inject it to the new card unless you've formatted the partition on it at least once, so do that first with the same tool you used for the old card (EMUNAND9 or Gateway Launcher menu, whatever your old card says it was formatted with)

It should be FBI. If it's not, fuck FBI injection and do the Pasta>trigger to prevent homemenuhax>browserhax>FBI.3dsx>FBI.cia method instead

Don't worry anon I will help you :)

Change it on EmuNAND because:
If you have blank internet settings in sysNand, and then configure the internet in emuNand, the settings will carry over. I noticed this while setting up a N3DS, but it also applies on the O3DS. This is true even if nands are unlinked. Before setting up internet on emuNand, make sure you have fake Wi-Fi connections on sysNand so it can't overwrite.

Get the latest rxtools nightly build (o3ds right?) and copy the ninjhax folder's /3ds/ folder onto your sd card, as well as the /rxtools/ folder itself, which should go on root

I think you also have to enter Tools and run cdn_firm.py (requires Python 2.7 installed) to generate a /firm/ folder, which you should copy to SD:/rxTools/sys/<here>

Then, boot it with either HBL or CTRBootManager

Honestly, I'm not sure. I would think it's not, since in the guide you install FBI to the home menu before you make your emunand and un-link the two by formatting Sysnand. You would think that FBI would still be there on emunand.

That's the one you want to use.

So I'm done with the whole process for downgrading and the installing emunand/custom firmware on my New 3ds, but now it seems I ran into a snag. My emunand does not seem to have any of my games/fbi installed to it. The SD card definitely shows the games still being on the card and I know the Emunand backup worked because my Nintendo Network ID is present on my Emunand (along with my friends still being on my friends list, which means it had to be using the ID folder that contained all my games). The only thing that seems strange is that when looking at the partition in Disk Management, it shows the partition as unallocated.

Did I screw something up here? I feel like in order for the titles to show up I need to first sign into my Nintendo Network ID, but that requires me to update to do so. Is it okay to use the same sysUpdater used to downgrade to 9.2 to upgrade to 9.5 on my emunand or do I need another version? Or is that not going to fix my missing title problem?

That's the latest update?
Fuck. I'll stop playing and wait then.

Will installing games ever be faster?
Will you ever be able to play straight away instead of installing?

Thanks, and then I just to put the correct firmware in the updates folder right? I'm on 10.3 28U so I want the 9.2 20U right?

to be honest. a week ago, I never even imagined I could pirate this much for the 3DS, ever. I'd be grateful for what we have already. maybe give it a year before it becomes perfect, and more instantaneous.

its an overlayed cfw meaning it runs OVER your cfw of choice. google bootntr. install that shit to your home menu > run it > enjoy ntr features regardless of cfw
>>
After setting up CFW and everything, I think I'm ready to install CIAs of the games I want...my issue is that when I'm on emuNAND, I can't seem to get FBI/BigBlueMenu installed to the homescreen by running FBI through the homebrew launcher, so that's making me worried about installing games in the first place. FBI says the CIAs are installed and I'm overwriting them, so where the hell do I find them? Am I actually writing them to sysNAND somehow?
>>
>>128088663
Yeah, but make sure you download the right one for your system type. Old 3DS/2DS uses the normal one, New uses the one with new in the filename.

If you get that wrong and come here complaining about a brick, you will get pointed and laughed at.

How do I configure menuhax to autoboot without pressing L?

When I try to create a ncchinfo.bin file for the 3ds converter, I get a "Cannot access the file because it is being used by another process" error. Any way to fix this?

Quit worrying faggot. Not one person on this page hasn't seen the cross-thread.

Hey guys, I know this thread must be filled to the brim with people trying to get the custom firmware working, however, I would like a little help. I just found out that the 3DS has been cracked, and I freak out trying to do this stuff alone. I currently have a spare 3DS in my poession and wish to try this out. It's an old 3DS with the firmware of 9.5.0-22u. What would be the best way to apply the CFW if I may ask? Do I follow the old way, or should I update to the latest version and then downgrade? Also I do need an external SD card right? What's a preferred size if I may ask since I'm assuming the games will load from the card itself? Thanks in advance.

>>128088349
Seems like that guide is for installing all the shit that comes after downgrading, which is helpful, but the part I'm really stuck at is trying to downgrade my n3ds from 9.5 to 9.2

This is the one for an old 3ds XL right? Thank you for all your help by the way.
>>
>>128089251
Yep, that's the one. Old 3DS XL, US region, the full pack instead of the retardo "modified" one.

Enjoy your sysUpdater roulette.

Is it normal for it to freeze on this screen? Or is it just part of the roulette?
>>
>>128090312
Try pressing Y. If nothing happens, it froze. Part of the roulette, you didn't win this try, nothing happened, try again.

If it ever says "retrieving CIA information" or something like that, give it 10 minutes (really only needs like 3 but okay, it's not my console...) even if it seems to be frozen.

See lines 32-34 in http://pastebin.com/ZfA8wtA2 for voodoo that may or may not improve your luck.

>>128090312
That happens alot. Just keep doing it and it'll work eventually

Got an error
titleException:

Failed to get CIA file info!

Is my SD card structure correct?
>>
>>128091665
Yeah, part of the roulette if you're using the right build (it failed to actually get kernel privs). Anyway, you should probably ask in the other thread at >>128088281.
>>
Okay, I've downgraded my 3DS to 9.2.0-20, what am I supposed to do next?

I'm really just looking to pirate / play games.
