Hacking CFW noob questions

LatentAxis · Nov 27, 2015

alright, so, since Im a complete newbie about cfw on the 3ds, I just wanted to ask, what are my options?
I'm on N3DS FW10.2
Also, is there any way to install CIA packages for me?

EmanueleBGN · Nov 27, 2015

To install a CFW you must have a firmware version between 4.x and 9.2

LatentAxis · Nov 27, 2015

ohh I see... that sucks.
Is there any way to downgrade then?
btw, what about the homebrew exploit, can I somehow use CIA files through that? NVM, you cant :/

EmanueleBGN · Nov 27, 2015

No, you can't downgrade your New 3DS.
With homebrew you can't load pirated games, .3ds nor .cia

hmm... so basically, I'm outta luck for now... damn...

For now?, I'd say forever :rofl2:

Somehow, I think OP will have thee CIA install far quicker if they sell their current unit and obtain a 9.2 and below one.

LatentAxis · Nov 27, 2015

yeah I was thinking about that too. just cant find anyone who hasnt updated it yet

Tony_93 · Nov 27, 2015

Just buy a New old 3DS or a Sky3ds cart.

RaMon90 · Nov 27, 2015

Your only option is sky3ds but you know its not free and you cant play latest games. Changing n3ds isnt worth, you gonna lose money selling and getting another exploitable n3ds. Or if you do have money, you could find a o3ds with firmware between 4.x-9.2.

Tony: why an O3DS??
Yeah, I would have to try to find one.

Btw, does anyone kow what firmware they come in if bought new?

N3DS = Harder to find, more expensive, harder to set up a CFW, new encryption 9.5 maximum emunand.

O3DS = Easy to find, cheaper second hand like new ($120), easy CFW setup, full 10.3 emunand, same games (except for a single exclusive game).

LatentAxis · Nov 27, 2015

wait, so old 3DS is harder to set up CFW? haha
You confused me

Tony_93 · Nov 27, 2015

I meant N3DS, edited.

Anyways, if you buy a N3DS you have 9/10 chances it's going to be above 9.2

Buy an o3DS new and you'll have an exploitable one.

LatentAxis · Nov 27, 2015

alright, thats better.
and ohhh, so it's pretty much guaranteed to be equal or below 9.2?

Tony_93 · Nov 27, 2015

As long as you buy it new (and not the newest bundle with 3D Mario Land) it should be in 9.2 or less.

Hey can anyone help me, I just found a 3.0.0-5E 3DS and would like to know what my best option is to do with it

*Get a game that has the 4.5 update.
*Use the mset exploit.
*Install rxTools + emunand
Optional: Manually update to 9.2 to use the Menuhax + ctrbootmanager combo.

Dakani · Nov 27, 2015

I'm sorry Tony but could you please link me Some tutorials? And also do I need to buy anything except the 3DS?
