Expect that step is no longer needed, you can just downgrade to 2.1 and install A9LH from there. I know I read the guide, but the guide is grossly wrong to imply there's less of a risk bricking with this method. There's the same level of risk of bricking with this method as there is just going straight to A9LH.
Just go all the way and install A9LH

This guide is how to use a 9.2 ctrnand transfer with soundhax. A9LH is installed starting with a 2.1 ctrnand transfer with soundhax. This is useless.

Nobody should use anything other than this guide: https://3ds.guide/

Ok, clearly no one is going to say it
So this guide will give you a safer method to install a custom firmware (LUMA 3DS) with as little risk as possible.
This statement right here is flat wrong. Ctrtransfer regardless if it's from 2.1 or 9.2, comes with the same level of risks. You NOT getting a safer method using this method. You are simply avoiding another method. If you can successfully pull off a ctrtransfer to 9.2, then you can easily do a 2.1 ctrtransfer.

cool excellent news for people who don't give a rat's ass about A9lh, too bad everybody in this like-minded salty ass community is talking tihs because you've insulted their little bible
No we hate this because it does the exact same damn steps as a9lh but makes you install crappier software.

Here we go, another thread of people being rude to the poor little guy. Don't you see he is happy and excited with his accomplishment?

At least be gentle if you are going to help him by encouragin him to do the 2.1 ctr transfer for the a9lh shit...
He technically has encouraged himself to do that. this just ctr transfers you to 9.2 nothing special. if he is fine doing 9.2 he should be fine doing 2.1

Except for that even if you didn't want to install A9LH and still have CFW, downgrading to 9.2 is still completely unnecessary.

I hate religion, but i don't tell people on their faces that nobody cares about it.

There is this little thing called "respect"

Then you should really edit your first post. If he is fine with just 9.2, leave him with that OR at least be gentle the next time you tell someone to continue to 2.1 using that guide.

When did I mention religions? I hate them too but that isn't the point.

I was saying that why do the same thing with worst software when the same steps gets you good up to date software

We aren't taking it as insult, we are pointing out the problems here. This guide is pretending it's a safer alternative, but it's not. Every single ctrtransfer comes with the same level of risk. This is not safer than install A9LH, thus making this method redundant. If someone is willing to go through the same risk of installing this, why not go all the way? Because they aren't safer with this guide as they are with the Guide.

First nobody cares and second you should really only follow 3ds.guide
any other guide is outdated
Your words. I'm reffering to that, hence my example with religion.

I think you are a cool guy, don't fall to the level of dumb insulting trash of people of the internet.

    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.

    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
