>encouraging shitposting with the OP
Remake and try again.
My N3DSXL only gives me "Could not access microSD card" now, no matter what.
Formatted both already. SD reads just fine on PC.
What do I do here?
So when can we expect more shit for the Ps4?
nth for read the op and lurking the thread before asking simple questions, you will more often than not have your problem solved a lot easier
>>127578339
Wonder what will be the new 9.9 never.
Dumped my nand put my data back on the card and restarted. My games and stuff arent showing on my homemenu. Halp pls?
>>127578387
Is it fat32?
are 3DS and 3DSWare cias the only type of games I can play if I want to only install on emuNAND?
i now know GBA cias need to be installed on both NAND's but what about NES, GB and GBC cias? same thing?
>>127578387
You might just try another SD card. Not all are created equally, by any means.
>>127578387
Format it and make sure its not locked. Try another SD card. Kill a man. I dont know.
Hey someone just sent me a pretty much brand new (he played it once and you can tell just by looking at it that it's true) Pink 3DS for 60 bucks.
Got it because the casing for it shows no color so no one can see it anyway. Got a few Q's about this.
>It's on version 7 . 1, can it play R O M games without those carts that are 90 bucks?
>What is the pro of getting a cart? On 7 . 1 can nand still go up to 10 . 3?
>What are the set backs of not using a cart?
>Can you get the 7 . 1 up to 9 . 2?
>Can the extra content still be used on a 3DS without the carts (Sky, etc)? Like Fire Emblem's extra areas or Mario GOlf's extra levels?
>About how long does the process take?
>Had another 3DS with Fire Emblem and other saves, will they work on this one with a R O M version of the game from someone else? It was the virtual version not a cart version and read in a few places that saves are tied to the cart or digital version played. Is that true?
>Which games work on 3DS currently? GB, GBA, SNES, etc? Saw a Genesis one but it said it wasn't finished. Are the PS and N 64 ones real?
>Is a 32 mem card big enough? 64 and 128 seem to give some people probs but got a 32 here
>What online issues do you face? Is there a problem if the 3DS has been online already but is version 7 . 1 still anyway? It has already been cleaered for a new user before being sent if that helps
Also got about 25 3DS carts and some places say save them for their headers. What does that mean? Some guy was saying you can use a header from a cheap crappy game for Monster Hunter and other games. Is their any other purpose? (Other than playing them, they are great games)
Thanks to anyone who answers!
It's more than originally planned question wise but want to get it right the first time.Going to be a busy next 3 weeks and this is the only day off, trying to do it all today
>>127578460
Yep
>>127578515
I don't think it's the SD card at all though. It happened after I wiped everything on the SD card.

I do every "trick" and I can still never get past 7.
I ain't stopping though. I will install Xenoblade tonight.
So, if I rename rxtools.3dsx to boot.3dsx to make it load from menuhax, how do I get everything else to load the real homebrew launcher?
IS THERE A TUTORIAL VIDEO OF HOW TO INSTALL RXTOOLS AND EMUNAND

>>127578610
do it before update drops or if you end up softbricking, ninty force update to 10.4 and you are fucked
stop being a pussy
>>127578583
1. yes
2. carts are obsolete, yes
3. nothing
4. yes, update to 10.3 and downgrade, or get a specific game cart to force update to 9.2
5. yes via injection
6. couple hours of reading, frustration, resetting and asking lots of questions
7. no unless you extract save on other console and inject
8. 3ds, gba/gb/gbc/snes/nes/genesis, ps1 is in the works but may only shine on n3ds, not sure of n64
9. yes
10. none if you read and understand

Not sure if i missed this somewhere but after installing cias there all unwrapped gifts is there a way to remedy this?
>>127579036
It already takes 5 minutes. Never going to be foolproof because retards like you have no reading comprehension.
>>127579036
2 weeks tops.
The firmware patch/release of 10.4 is going to make people think outside the box on how to prevent fails from happening, by then the trial and errors will have hopefully been fixed and the process streamlines.
>>127579036
Nigger, apart from the downgrade this has all existed for ages. Apart from the downgrade maybe getting a higher success rate, this is as simple as its getting.
I just installed menuhax through browserhax. How do I launch it?
>>127578610
If you use juilian it uninstalls and installs each cia at a time. The worst that can happen is a soft brick (I wouldn't even call it a brick) you just system restore, update, and its like nothing ever happened.
The only way you can brick is if you download the wrong firmware. I don't think that problem will ever be unavoidable. Just be very, very careful.
Also you have until the 11th.
So, after installing menuhax do I need to backup anything before trying to downgrade?
is it necessary to format N3ds before downgrading?
>>127579152

I just got FBI on the main menu. When I go to install a CIA, do I need to put my 3DS in EMUNAND or can I just do it whenever I turn on the 3DS? Sorry if it sounds like a dumb question. I'm just paranoid about being bricked.

Okay let's play this game.
Tell me how you do the following in 5 minutes and in keep in mind I won't even mention the many dozens of times you'll be taking the sd card out of the 3ds and put it in your PC and back again:

>install browserhax for HB entry point
>install menuhax
>configure menuhax trigger and set type
>download 9.2 cia file, get sysupdater
>put files on sd card

Okay, I got it done with minimal effort and no complications. Thanks /homo bros general/, wouldn't have been this easy without you lads.

>>127580291
Yeah, justin will take a while to go through but it's the safest method, its just not idiot proof if you download the wrong firmware.
Honestly, that guy probably got lucky. Just keep doing the normal method.
>>127580489
FBI.cia with FBI, 1.4.17.
>>127580489
I'm losing fait though. I mean, it's not normal for it to be softbricking so much right? I must be doing something wrong but I don't know what.
>>127580448
Pretty much, but what a fucking effort. There must be a way to make menuhax read the rxtools 3dsx and everything else read the homebrew launcher 3dsx. Someone pls respond.
>>127579925
Yep, weird, can't even update to 10.3 and redo all the procedure again.
black screen and no response, can load recovery, after this step =>
5.Restore the back up SD card files to your newly formatted SD card
>>127580489
>>127580559
I didn't know update cias existed.
So I just download them, install them wtih FBI, and I'm good?
Good 3DS Lightweight games pls.
Also, if a game is 1GB, I'll have to use 2 GBs to install because of the .cia and the installed game, or not?
>>127580156
1. Backup your emuNAND.
2. Backup all emuNAND files (ticket.db etc.) with rxTools.
3. Backup the content of your SD card.
4. Format emuNAND.
5. Recover your SD card content and boot rxTools in emuNAND.
6. Update to 10.3.0-28X and boot into emuNAND again.
7. Go to system settings and to NNID at the top; follow instructions.
8. Boot emuNAND and start the eShop; simply restart the 3DS if it keeps looping after the password input.
9. Once in the eShop, close it and shut down.
10. Recover your whole SD card once more. *
11. Inject emuNAND backup.
12. Inject all emuNAND file backups.
13. Start the eShop in emuNAND and it should refresh your software.
14. And now you should have emuNAND eShop access without any loss of StreetPass/Save/Friend/etc. data.

But I am not even getting to any options. It crashes as soon as I select the item on the homebrew menu. Are they supposed to just be in the 3ds folder or in a folder in the 3ds folder? Do you need both the .smdh and .3dsx files. I have read 3 guides that all say different stuff here.
>>127580675

lol tried again after posting and I got a menu.
>>127580823
yes
There's something I don't understand.
That is how to update emunand from 9.2 to 9.5
So to start off assume I'm on 9.2, rxtools, emunand, fbi, homebrew yada yada all installed and ready.
I also still have my "updates" folder on the SD card from when I downgraded.
So, now I want to upgrade my emunand from 9.2 to 9.5
So I download the 9.5 files, put them in a "updates" folder on the sd root and remove the older updates folder.
Now how do I get into emunand?
If I boot up I get the choice between rxtools and homebrew, but rxtools now no longer has "boot rxtools + emunand" for me. So I will forever be in sysnand.
I don't get it.
>>127580952
Better safe than sorry b-bros...
I haven't even gotten through yet. Are you using the method that boots directly to sys or going through the homebrew?
So any N3DS users manage to link their NNID/Access eshop through Emunand? Got loadsa vidya to redownload.
>>127580916
You should downgrade first to 9.2/9.0. Then setup emunand with this tutorial https://gbatemp.net/threads/tutorial-installing-rxtools-custom-firmware-3ds-and-2ds.390867/
You can ask in that thread too, I personally and the op try to answer all questions!
I cant help you regarding downgrading though.
But this is supposed to work:

OKAY TRY ANOTHER VERSION OF FBI PLEASE I THINK THE ONE I HAVE IS 1.4.14 COULD BE A PROBLEM WITH THE RELEASE OR THE DOWNLOAD LET ME KNOW HOW IT WENT
>>127580675
N3DS IS ACTING LIKE THAT SO KEEP TRYING M8
>>127580724
YES THIS IS CORRECT
>>127580943

>>127580916
YES GO TO 10.3 ASAP
I've got everything set up and I've been playing Fire Emblem If for the whole day. If, down the line, I decide to buy a 64 or 128GB MicroSD card, how hard would it be to transfer everything over? Would I just need to do an emuNAND and sysNAND dump, restore them on the new SD card, then put all the files on the old card onto the new one?
>>127581058
homebrew
Can I take out the Nintendo 3DS folder from my SD card after unlinking nands, or will it fuck my shit up?
>>127580736
>>127580939
Cool, thanks lads.
>>127581075
Thank you very much.
Will i lose all my data / e-shop purchases if i do downgrade?
Just downgraded and want to proceed to cfw and play games, and I have a few questions.
Is my Nintendo ID in any kind of danger if I proceed? Most of my 3DS games are digital.
Using the guide in the OP, both N3DS links for installing cfw mention Gateway or a DS flashcart reader. I have neither, did I get to the end of the line?
>>127580489
I installed it again and now it worked. thanks, screaming anon~

>>127581220
I dont know, I really cant tell you much about it since I never did it myself. I can help you if have a 3ds on 9.0/9.2 but I cant help you with the downgrade.
if I have a new SD card can I just throw the starter kit in it right after the format or do I need to put it in the 3ds first?
Do I need to put the sysUpdater files inside a folder in the 3ds folder?

Following this guide here https://gbatemp.net/threads/tutorial-how-to-install-a-cfw-on-a-9-0-9-2-n3ds-without-cn-oot.398394/ and installed BBM, but whever I boot my N3DS it appears for a second and disappears. What's going on?
>>127581116
Yeah we just gotta hang in there mang
>>127581103
Not your sysnand, since that's not stored in your SD card. You might as well do a NAND dump of it if you're worried though.
>>127581352
There is a "bug" that can be fixed.
1. Backup your emuNAND.
2. Backup all emuNAND files (ticket.db etc.) with rxTools.
3. Backup the content of your SD card.
4. Format emuNAND.
5. Recover your SD card content and boot rxTools in emuNAND.
6. Update to 10.3.0-28X and boot into emuNAND again.
7. Go to system settings and to NNID at the top; follow instructions.
8. Boot emuNAND and start the eShop; simply restart the 3DS if it keeps looping after the password input.
9. Once in the eShop, close it and shut down.
10. Recover your whole SD card once more. *
11. Inject emuNAND backup.
12. Inject all emuNAND file backups.
13. Start the eShop in emuNAND and it should refresh your software.
14. And now you should have emuNAND eShop access without any loss of StreetPass/Save/Friend/etc. data.
3 People have confirmed this working.

JESUS CHRIST THIS SHOULD BE THE LEAST OF YOUR WORRIES
>>127581040
why do you need to update
it's not really necessary
you have to boot into emunand and then sysUpdater from there
try using older versions of rxtools
>>127581068
download elsewhere and inject via fbi
>>127581103
copy emunand
put in new sd
create new emunand from your regular system nand as you did originally
inject your old emunand in
>>127581134
it will fugg u
>>127581234

I got my NANDs unlinked, but I'm getting a few problems. I can't get CTRBootManager to launch, it says no ARM9 payload. I figured out that this is because I don't have ""/rxTools/sys/code.bin" on my SD card. Where do I get those files?
Also, system update keeps failing emunand, any ideas?
>>127581550
Because people say mystery dungeon needs 9.5 emunand and that in the future more games will require higher than 9.2 too

yes the newer games will but most of the games will be firmware spoofed and uploaded on other sides, thus removing the need to have updates

How do I update the Health & Safety injected FBI? I placed the 1.4.17 cia on the root as it says https://gbatemp.net/threads/tutorial-installing-rxtools-custom-firmware-3ds-and-2ds.390867/ and rerun the Install FBI option but it's still the 1.3.8 version.
Downgraded once last night but recovery updated to 10.3U because I think I fucked up a step since rxTools wouldnt work and now I can't get the downgrade tool to work. It spits out "titleException main.cpp:148: Result: 0xD900182F"
any tips? I'm on n3DS btw
>>127581739
HEY SCREAM ANON, I KNOW I'VE ASKED THIS QUESTION BEFORE BUT:

rxtools.3dsx in 2.6 doesn't work. Anyone got one that does?
I made a, seemingly better, starter pack.
It should have everything required point-to-point to get up and running from scratch (pre-downgrade) to rxTools (excluding the firmware files). I also took the liberty of rewriting the firmware .bat file to be more streamlined.
I wrote a pretty thorough readme for the entire process, but some wording is either vague or nonexistent so fleshing out those would be nice. For instance, I could drop the hint at rxTools 2.6 since this pack provides 3.0.
Also, it works during any part of the process so if you just downgraded and don't know what to do next you could follow along perfectly by starting to set up rxTools.

Thoughts and suggested improvements are appreciated.
Man, I'm so fucking glad that the downgrader worked in one try. Godspeed to everyone still trying to get it to work.

If none of my games will boot and Menuhax won't start, don't I have to format my SD Card? I made an backup before doing the whole downgrading thing. Also what Micro SD Card is good for pirating shit?

pretty sure I did boot to emunand and updated from settings, but then it restarted in sysnand and it was updated. That is why I have no idea what happened
>>127582505
I think that's why it was so easy for us with the launch 3ds. The newer boards had to have had something else added to them. Ours bent over and took it all in no questions asked
5 days left till Doomsday.
Fugg,I wanna downgrade my 2DS.
HAPPENING
It's taking fucking forever though, because this is a class 2 card. (looking at it now it's7%)
Do you guys think the game will run like shit thanks to that? I figured it would, but I wanted to try anyway.

This is the FBI.cia I'm trying to install.

Not a big deal but it would be nice to have them in both without having to redownload everything in emunand. Any ideas?
Can someone link me fates .cia with english patch?

You'll know when it softbricks when you boot the 3DS and get "An error has occurred" even with the SD card out. When that happens you need to update and try again

So alright, I've somehow managed to get rxtools running and injected the fbi thing, now all I have to do is dump cia's in the root and install them with health and safety?
Is there a video for what I should do after downgrading and looking to install cfw and play games?
I'm going back and forth between what I don't know should be backed up, if my digital games will still be playable, if I have to format my SD card, and if formatting will unlink my Nintendo ID.
I am lost anons. I managed to downgrade a N3DS, but I feel even more lost now.
Okay im going to downgrade
Should Is it okay to use ironhax to get to homebrew and use sysUpdater?
Assuming there will be a safe&stable way to downgrade N3DS systems in the future; how long do I have to buy a N3DS with a <=10.3 firmware?
So this ReiNand CFW and CakesFW look pretty good. Is there any reason why Rxtools is so much preferred and suggested here?
