I didn't see one, so here you guys go.

Question:
Can I have 9.2 running on emunand while I update to the latest version in sysnand?
>>
>>323162472
You're only supposed to update the emunand.

>>323162472
No.
Why the fuck would you? You can't boot your emunand on firmwares higher than 9.2
>>
Nobody answered me on other threads so...

I have a 10.3 o3ds with ironhax.

If i try to downgrade and i fail with a soft brick, will i still be able to use ironhax once i rollback to 10.3/get to 10.4?
>>
>>323162472
No because the exploit needed to boot into emunand is fixed in newer firmwares.

>>323163114
Yes to 10.3, unknown/no on 10.4

I mean, you have ironhax working on it right now and it's 10.3. Why shouldn't it work again after reloading in recovery?
Personally I used browserhax and menuhax.
>>
>>323162795
Not OP but can you update the emunand to the latest version and keep FBI and installed pirate games?

Also, I haven't played the 3DS in ages, but is there any advantage to upgrading the piece of shit? Right now all the games I pirated work fine in 9.2, and I have literally no reason to access the eshop or all of those online things that give money to Nintendo.

>>323163706
>>323163787
It's DEFINITELY not on 9.0+, that's the problem.
It's probably on Pokemon X's firmware version, which is 6.x I think? There's no exploits on that version, right?

>>323163706
Isn't 10.4 supposed to fix exploits?
>>
>>323163856
that's french faggot
>>
>>323163706
Question myself, since I'm having a fucking hard time trying to get the CFW setup, I left tubehax DNS off because I didn't want to stop browserhax. I then couldn't use Ironhax anymore because my firmware was so old the system would softlock and browserhax stopped working when I downgraded. Eventually, it updated anyways.

I think 4chan would be better at writing guides than any of the shits at gbatemp. Most of them list multiple steps that aren't relevant since I don't own a gateway and just want the simplest CFW solution.
>>
>>323163959
same thing
>>
>>323163940
3DS doesn't update automatically.
They can remotely deactivate the web browser which is important to getting homebrew in the first place. But they can't do that if you set a DNS that blocks nintendo servers first.
>>
>>323163940
Ah, just get a game card that brings you to a 9.x firmware.
definitely still set tubehax dns so the browser doesn't get blocked.
>>
>>323164090
>>323164182
Oh, neat, I thought tubehax dns only applied if Nintendo didn't block the browser for an update in the first place!
>>
>>323164253
Yeah, you just have to set it before the 3DS receives the signal.

I had the 9.2 o3ds cias in the updates files and when it downgrades and reboots i get an error to turn off and contact support
Is this normal since it's happened twice and soft bricking makes me reinstall menuhax. Is it based on luck? When will i get to downgrade
>>
I don't get it, once you setup up the whole CFW thing after downgrading 9.2, how exactly do you start palying ROMs? And is this a good video to follow in regards to downloading CFW?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rqtl5Tsxt_E
>>
>>323164003
Browserhax stopped working when you downgraded because it works differently on different firmwares. The sliderhax thing people keep mentioning? That's the 9.2 browser way to access homebrew. Go to the page, there will be a slider in the top left corner. Poke the rightmost edge of it and homebrew will load.

As for updating anyways, fucking how? The dns will only stop sneaky updates that nintendo might shove in when 10.4 becomes a thing. Your 3ds will generally ask you if you want to update before it does shit.

Get back to it. You gave up too early.

>3DS HACKING GENERAL THREAD
I got banned for making a homebrew "general thread" when I really just wanted to put out a PSA with one of the homebrew websites

I'm still salty about it

Anyway my old XL is on 9.9 or something and I was thinking about downgrading it, I just don't want to lose my digital purchases/saves. It hasn't been a big priority for me though since I also have an old 3DS that's already hacked, so I'd just be having another system to run my emunands.
>>
>>323164470
1. You are using the wrong firmware files
2. Some of your firmware files have been corrupted during download or unzipping
3. There is something wrong with your SD Card. Full format it on PC and try again.

You can. I have and it's works like a charm. Make sure to install your fbi to the emunand and only use it there, I've heard there have been issue with using it in the sysnand and the installed games will go to whichever nand the fbi is installed anyways

Why you should do it? Free shit.
If you get good at it you could buy used 3dses cheap, downgrade, install cfw, and sell for a large profit. People will pay top dollar for a hacked 3ds.

So I accidentally set coldboot to emunand and then realized I was doing it wrong and set it to sysnand

Now my system coldboots emunand and then tries to coldboot again and ends up crashing unless I hold x right after I launch rxtools.

It's not really that big of a deal and I'll fix it eventually but is there a way to change menuhax so it only runs in sysnand and disables for emunand on the 3ds or do I have to just uninstall menuhax and start over from the beginning?
>>
>>323164768
Be sure that the correct files for the firmware that you want to downgrade are all in a folder called "update" in the root of your SD card.

And be sure that you have the EXACT firmware version for your 3DS model.

If you have done that... just keep trying. It's not bug free or garanteed to work yet.
>>
any way to convert 3ds files to .cia. Also if I wanna hexedit/tweak game like say fire emblem, wtf do I use, the .cia?

I had this issue before. Use a different build of sysupdater and use menuhax. It's what I did and now I have free vidya.

>>323165161
You have to unlink your nands.
>>
>>323165293
Which is really risky. I heard you lose all your shit if you do.
>>
>>323165348
No.
Just eject your SD card if your formatting sysnand or use tinyformatter if formatting emunand.
You'll lose everything on that NAND only then.
>>
>>323165293
I already did that but I can try doing it again.

>>323165348
The tutorial I saw said you could remove your sd card right before you start the process and when you run it you wouldn't lose anything. I got all my stuff back but it forced all of the 3ds games I actually bought into emunand. Which I wouldn't mind if I could get my 3ds to boot emunand without this minor detail bothering me.

Then again I'm on O3ds. It might be riskier on N3ds

Where did you download the update file? Get it from this MEGA link:
mega:///#F!IApGwLJL!kYHL5jMlDfd0rmn6a8DaFw

Make sure to get the (full) version. Also I'm not 100% sure but I think you need the one for the original 3ds, so you have to download this file: 9.2.0-20U(Full).zip
>>
>>323164953
I used this guide: http://pastebin.com/WVszD3Tm
If you can't follow instructions this simple I don't know what to tell you.
There is link to the tiny format files in the thing you should know section.

You should be saving tubehax for after you have everything in place. Once you've arranged it so that you don't have to use the browser to access rxtools/homebrew than you apply it. Nintendo won't do shit to you if you don't have it yet. 10.4 is when things start to fall apart and that's not till the 11th.
Here's a goddamn autoboot tutorial as well since I'm in such a spoonfeeding mood.

Use it after you have your enumand set up and rxtools in place.

I'm trying to install menuhax, however I followed the guide, basically install 'success', then go to config triggers - type0 'success'

says if I hold L in home menu it would coldboot into homebrew

Using the web browser the only one that works that goes into homebrew

Got everything setup so far. My only issue is CTR doesn't autoboot rxtools, so I have to manually hold the L button to boot it into emunand.

Friends, question here.

So I was running RxTools and got this Unwrap bug everytime I boot up my console.

I read at gbatemp it was recommended to UNLINK NANDS and that's what I did.

Little did I know by doing that I cant use online on my cfw, after unlinked.

So im asking if there is any way to play online on my cfw after unlink?
>>
>>323167064
I think I had a similar problem.

It's not "Hold this button to coldboot" It's "Select what button to hold if you do not want to coldboot."

I set mines to x. So if I hold x while I turn on my 3ds, it goes to sysnand, the normal 3ds version. But if I don't hold anything, rxtools boots up and then it goes to emunand

>>323165690
>>323165293
>>323165819

Thanks. I tried all of those. I had to uninstall menuhax from both emu and sys then turn off my system, go into sys and only install it in sys.

That should have been obvious but I was tired when I was fiddling with it yesterday. Thanks.

>>323167307
Yes. Updating your emunand separate from your sysnand is how most if us are getting online no problem.
If you separate them and update only the emunand it will be fine.

>>323167432
>>323167272

probably the reason why I couldn't get it going is I had to hold the buttons while turning on 3ds. I just assumed I just had to load the 3ds then hold down the buttons.

You can use rxtools to boot your emunand. The emunand firmwear should have an Rx or something in front of it. The sysnand firmwear doesn't have any latter's at the start, just the 9.2.
Change the theme and icon size and placement so you can tell at a glance whether youre in the sysnand or the emunand.

You keep stuff after downgrade, it only "clears" when you unlink NANDs(via resetting) and only on one NAND, you can choose which one. Just don`t forget to backup before creating an emu-partition.

hey guys quick question. Last night i managed to boot into rxtools and loaded up the emunand. I loaded up eshop and it asked to do system update. I did the system update and it updated the sysnand to 10.3.
am i fucked? i have a backup of my 9.2 sysnand...
>>
>>323174691
Awesome. So I installed triforce heroes and it plays online (used a .cia U region). So I shouldn't be concerned Nintendo will hit me with a banhammer
>>
>>323174642
After 9.8 if you are on not on the latest firmware you have to update before you can use browser. Right now the browser is where the exploit is.
>>
>>323173859
Any ideas at all guys? Do I need to reinstall HBM now that I'm on 9.2?
>>
>>323174839
As far as I'm aware, cia files don't contain headers so Nintendo can't differentiate it from a legitimate copy. You should be good.
>>
>>323174779
revert to backup asap

the n3ds screen goes black whenever i try to downgrade from sysupdater. What to do fåm?

Okay, so I haven't updated my O3DS in ages and it looks like it is still at version 9.0.0-20u.

Is there anything I need to do in terms of upgrading/downgrading to 9.2 or am I already set?

Is it still worth downgrading or is it likely that this stuff will eventually get fixed? tempted to just buy a 2DS

>>323172079
Update your emuNAND, if you're on an o3DS it's as simple as making sure you're in emuNAND, then going to system settings, other options, then system update. Then let it do it's thing and then your emuNAND is up to date.

okay, I've been using using FTP-3ds mostly, think it does the same thing as the MLP program, I seem to have better luck with the FTP, 50% chance of black screen, 25% it loads but freezes, 25% it would load and show me the same cia error after I press downgrade.

Had this problem. I used the files from 3dsiso. Starter kit, 9.2 cias, menuhax, etc. After you have menuhax (assuming you used the files from 3dsiso..), open up ftbrony from the menuhax and hit b to exit. Then open up the sysupdater. Should work. Worked for me.

Browserhax will always work for any firmware avaiable now. If you don't get menuhax and upgrade your 3ds to a future 10.4 you won't be able to use the homebrew launcher since 10.4 will most likely fix the browserhax trick.

You already have the starter kit I'm assuming. Worked flawlessly for me. If after you don't have fbi on your emunand, he links it in the post how to inject into health and safety. Just download decrypt9 and put all the files on your sd card. Open up rxtools, find decrypt9 and open it. Follow the instructions on the tutorial he links and you're all set. I was confused doing it since they don't tell you how to get decrypt9 on the console. Screencap this if the thread prunes. You'll want it.

You format sysnand through the system settings. Just remove sd, power on 3ds, boot as normal, go to settings, other settings, format system memory.

This unlinked the nands.

Assuming your files are correct, which you should have triple checked, then just keep running it if it fails. I downgraded my n3ds 2 days ago in 6 tries; I found opening the ftpbrony app and closing it immediately before attempting sysupdate helped. If you get past the "press y" stage and see its pulling cias then leave it alone until it's done.

Formatting emunand shouldn't do anything visibly but wipe your card honestly. The nand.bin is a backup from dumping your nand.
Just put all your files back on your sd card after you format emunand, then format system settings in your 3ds (without the sd in it). Now you'll have an unlinked sysnand and emunand.
Now when you load up rxtools you should be able to boot into emunand. This is your CFW

If you pirate games, if it's a cia file you're safe. If you use .3ds files with a gateway or sky3ds then you need to patch in headers.

Nope, you need xorpads. I could've sworn I saw a CIA for the v3 translation somewhere on that one ISO site.

Why did you buy it in the first place anon?

If you have a DS flashcart that was affected by the flashcart killer update a few years ago, you can at least possibly use that thanks to bluecardfix.cia, and then there's GBA/SNES emulation available too.

How do I install GBA games on RxTools?

I've installed FBI over H&S on sysNAND to try and install them, now do I just install like normal for that, and then for EmuNand?

Use menuhax to autoboot. Change it to type 2. Open your homebrew launcher to access menuhax or use rxtools to do so.

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

This tutorial has you change your boot.dl file to another file name and add the rxtools boot in place of it. Try that.

I got everything working. I boot to the boot manager and load rxtools, but when I try to install cias none of them appear on my home menu in emunand. Rebuilding dbs does nothing.

Anyone else have this problem?

Can I ask you to search for it? I've looked all over but I can't find it. I downloaded from 3dsiso but it was in .3ds format.

on emunand you can always upgrade over system settings, with sysnand 9.2 or lower you can always create a new emunand if you fuck up
