If you already have A9LH, you can update your sysNAND.I have linked nands and want to follow the otp guide to get my otp, whats steps should I change from Plailect's guide to ensure I get my otp without messing up my 3ds? I am using an o3ds on 9.2 sysnand and emunand. The guide also doesnt state anything about how to upgrade your 3ds to the latest fw, is it ok to use sysnand's system settings to update 3ds now if youve removed emunand? I dont know how updating arm9lh or updating fw with arm9lh works
Im using this otp guide: https://github.com/Plailect/Guide/wiki
If you already have A9LH, you can update your sysNAND.
If you do not have A9LH, DO NOT UPDATE YOUR SYSNAND.
What would I change personally in the guide? The use of AuReiNAND instead of Cakes, more user friendly, and I've seen more issues pop up when people are using Cakes.
AureiNAND blocks FIRM automatically, so no need to worry about it.With regard to cakes vs aureinand Id like to know how relevant this point is in the guide:
Part 5:
36. Activate the "Block FIRM partition updates", "Disable Signature Checks", and "Survive reboots when launching some titles" (that last one is Old 3DS only and you only need it if you have Smash 4 or MH4; it will not be there for all devices) patches, then press Start to continue
(MAKE SURE YOU SELECT THE BLOCK FIRM PARTITION UPDATES PATCH OR THE NEXT SYSTEM UPDATE WILL BRICK YOU)
Is this strictly cakes fw related or should i just look over it if i choose aureinand?
Does Reinand block FIRM? or should I move to AuReinand? Because last time i used AuReinand (I messed up some how) and my emunand didnt want to boot up.AureiNAND blocks FIRM automatically, so no need to worry about it.
afaik ReiNAND does not block FIRM, since Rei mainly wants to stick with emuNAND.Does Reinand block FIRM? or should I move to AuReinand? Because last time i used AuReinand (I messed up some how) and my emunand didnt want to boot up.
I am on a9hl but I am staying on emunand until sysnand actually seems safer. People seem to be screwing up swaping their nands and Id rather not attempt it. Since Im on emunand does that make the FIRMs safe? Or should I move to Au anyways?afaik ReiNAND does not block FIRM, since Rei mainly wants to stick with emuNAND.
If you're on A9LH, then yeah, definitely move over to AuReiNAND.
If you're only on emuNAND, I don't think it'd really matter.I am on a9hl but I am staying on emunand until sysnand actually seems safer. People seem to be screwing up swaping their nands and Id rather not attempt it. Since Im on emunand does that make the FIRMs safe? Or should I move to Au anyways?
Will do!If you're only on emuNAND, I don't think it'd really matter.
AuReiNAND can boot directly into Decrypt9, which is pretty cool. But if you don't care about that, then stick with ReiNAND for now.
Yes I too would like to know if firm 0 and firm 1 are blocked without setting an updatedsys nand flag. I have asked in the AuReiNand forum but no clear response. Kindly let me no if you get an answer to this.If you're only on emuNAND, I don't think it'd really matter.

Yes, AuReiNAND blocks FIRM0/FIRM1 even without the updatedsysnand flag.Yes I too would like to know if firm 0 and firm 1 are blocked without setting an updatedsys nand flag. I have asked in the AuReiNand forum but no clear response. Kindly let me no if you get an answer to this.
Anyways, because it is unknown, I will be using a older version of aureinand when it comes time to update arm9 via 3dsx. I wonder if thats whe that guy bricked his n3ds a few pages back, because he tried to update when firm0 and firm1 was blocked.
Do you have the firmware90.bin in your /rei/ folder?So I have arm9 and AuRei all setup (10.6.xU emuNAND, 9.2.xU sysNAND) but now I can't access Decrypt9WIP, emuNAND9, and OTPHelper from homebrew menu on both sysNAND and emuNAND. Can anybody tell me why I can't? I get the double red screen flash after launching the apps and it goes back into homebrew menu.
Do you have the firmware90.bin in your /rei/ folder?
Also, make sure to boot with L, not with R.
Well that is because L trys to boot with firmware90.bin which you don´t have so it can´t boot. And for Homebrew you need the frim 9.x to use them.Nah I don't have firmware90.bin, only firmware.bin. Booting with 'L' just leaves my N3ds in a almost "brick" like state (for lack of better term) where just the blue light is on and nothing boots.
EDIT: I was under the impression I wouldn't need the a9LH firmware90.bin, should I be using it? Do firmware.bin and firmware90.bin play nice when they are both in the folder together?
