Full Stock to arm9loaderhax CFW Guide - Everything You Need to Know (Includes OTPHelper Now)

CoolAlpha · Aug 27, 2016

Dumped again, run go bat, injected still H&S...
I was on 4.5 > 2.1 > 4.5 and now I updated to 11
I have installed it on the second 3DS which is 9.2 and FBI works, can I install the app generated from this 3DS to the other one or it will brick?
the sizes are different

By "Update your CFW SysNAND" it means just go on settings and update?
There is no need to press anything like it was with emunand (3ds profile)?

Which version did you dumped, the 4.5 or the 11?

When it says "Update SysNAND" it means, go to "System Settings", "Update".

Since you have A9LH, there's no problema in updating.

You can also try to launch Homebrew through Browserhax and launch FBI to install the FBI.cia.

I dumped/injected on 4.5 (I did not checked if was showing), then updated to 11 (FBI was missing), tried to dump/inject on 11 with no luck.
I solved restoring my 4.5 backup, injected FBI, installed FBI cia and the updated again to the latest version, the H&S is restored by the update.
Thank you for your help

EDIT: I updated now the other 3ds from 9.2 to 11, FBI is still present instead of H&S... probably from 4.5 H&S gets overwritten

Would it be safe to update to 9.2 via a Super Smash Bros. cart (which a friend has), and then do the necessary steps from there?

UPDATE: Just got confirmation from a discussion on the issues section of the guide on GitHub that cart updating should be fine.

So I finished my installation from your guide. I have Armloader installed. Can I now just update system firmware via update? The hack will still be there afterwards?

Solved my issue with no wifi on N3DS XL. Leaving out the battery (for at least a half hour to be sure) and then putting it back in indeed enabled wifi upon boot. I was then able to proceed. Plailect, this may be a good thing to add to your guide

many months ago, i followed Plailect guide and manage to get my otp.
Unfortunately i didn't follow up and didn't install arm9loaderhax.

Is there a separate guide that i can follow since the current one is asking for NANDmin.bin, NANDmin.bin.sha and /files9/
that i don't have?

if i decide to follow this guide, which step i should start?

Yes, just update using settings > update software, first be sure to have fbi cia installed

You have to be on 2.1.0 to install arm9loaderhax
I would suggest you to follow the guide from beginning, you'll create your current NANDmin.bin backup before downgrading to 2.1.0 and later restore it

i think i have completed my installation without downgrading to 2.1.0 since i already get otp.bin
i followed TheCyberQuake instruction to complete my installation.

You need the boot.3dsx from the start pack on your SD card. Red screen means its not there

Wtf Tapatalk, send me to an old post instead of the newest XD

Hello. I have a question. I think I have bricked my console when I was testing this. Can someone give me a little help please. I downloaded from 11.0 to 10.4 and it said it was ok without any errors neither reading or writting, and when it finished when I switched it off instead of working now it doesn't start (neither with sd card or without it). I have tried to do the recovery but I can't seem to make it work. Have i bricked it?? Do i need to do a hardmode now?? Any help please. Sorry for my bad english by the way. Thank you

Is there no way of downgrading a 2ds on 11.0 without hardmoding or another DS with CFW?

None as of now, you can wait though since there are already conversations that an 11.0 software downgrade is on the works. But there's no ETA yet, so your best bet is to look for another hacked 3DS or ofcourse, hardmod.

Strifept · Aug 29, 2016

I can wait if that is the case. Tyvm!

How exactly did you downgrade?
What guide where you following?

I can do it, if you don't want to wait.

I followed Hirobyte guide. Can I post a link to it? It is a youtube video. He also reccommended me to ask here

I was using fieldrunners. I run the exploit. It worked. I dump my firmware just in case and I used the downgrader to 10.4. It said that it worked but when it finished never returned...
