There is always a risk when modifying FIRM0/1, but the safeA9lh payload is much more stable than the homebrew version used when installing A9LH for the first time.

I've updated twice now, always sticking to the plailect guide and downloading the official safeA9lhinstaller and a9lh from the official github releases.

I had a friend name the payload start_safea9lhinstaller.bin, but DO NOT DO THIS as once you enter the payload the start is used to uninstall and if you are on 11.1 you just lost cfw (he lost it!).... Name it like the guide says down_safea9lhinstaller.bin.

Here is link to updating instructions: https://github.com/Plailect/Guide/wiki/Updating-A9LH

I´m currently following Plailects guide on updating A9LH. When I download data_input_v3.zip it aint a zip. It´s a .torrent file! Do you know how I can solve this?

Download the torrent through a client like uTorrent?
Oh. I didn´t think of that! Silly me. Thanks!

Thank you so much for all of your help (and thanks to the others too)! So now will BootAnim9 work?

From A9LH readme:
Usage
It loads an arm9loaderhax.bin (does not init the screens) or arm9loaderhax_si.bin (inits the screens) ARM9 payload from the root of the SD card or CTRNAND at address 0x23F00000.
This means that it offers a BRAHMA-like setup, and as such has compatibility with every payload BRAHMA can run.
You can also run code on the ARM11 by writing its memory address to 0x1FFFFFF8.

Try to re-name the arm9loaderhax.bin to arm9loaderhax_si.bin

Should work if you follow BootAnim9 installation instructions.

    @SylverReZ, I also heard one of the Prince of Persia games was so unfinished that it required the "24/7 online" drm so a puzzle could be done and the game could be finished. And that when the Ubisoft servers were closed the (cracked) game was impossible to finish or something like that
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's extra scummy. Ubisoft nowadays ship out incomplete games like Skull and Bones which was being worked on for nearly a decade now.

    Either that or their old games were unfinished aswell but we can't notice it
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I like that games can be fixed after the fact, hate that it's being abused via beta tests... And DLC... I was a 7800 owner back in the day and loved Impossible Mission, turns out I couldn't beat it because it was actually impossible lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I never knew about it at the time but a fixed version was available but you had to mail in your broken copy lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    So that version is semi rare
