Seems like an extra step, is using a different sysUpdater really all that important?
Is Julian's build more safe somehow?
I'm asking this because I've done successful downgrades with SafeSysUpdater.

Julian's sysupdater isn't safer , it just installs and deletes the cias one by one and it installs native_firm at the end , so if you end up getting a softbrick halfway through you'll be able to use recovery mode

What I meant is that , it won't make a better job downgrading that the rest of the sysupdaters, all of them have their risks , but julian's one is the one I used , and I got my 3ds downgraded on the first try (after I formated my system)

I'm going to take a nap and look at this in an hour or so... Having problems getting a entry point working and getting frustrated. Thank you guys for being patient with me and answering my questions, I appreciate it


Should I be trying Browserhax?

Which entrypoint(s) are you trying? Browserhax is the obvious choice to start with. If you get an update nag, you might be able to bypass it by following these recommendations. If you get browserhax working, you should immediately install menuhax and use that for the downgrade process.

Changing the DNS shouldn't result in no internet. Change your primary DNS to 107.211.140.065, and change the secondary DNS to 000.000.000.000.

Edit: You should save http://yls8.mtheall.com/3dsbrowserhax_auto.php to your bookmarks in the Internet Browser for quick access. Next, turn off your N3DS, reboot with your Wi-Fi off, turn Wi-Fi on, quickly go to the Internet Browser, and click the link in your bookmarks.

I semi bricked 4 n3ds systems(US),3 of them 9.8 and one is 9.9. the 5th one was a success and the reason is updating to 10.3 then downgrading to 9.2
I don't think it was a bad luck(4 systems),download the 10.3 update then downgrade from there

I've downgraded two 3DS, one new and one old from 9.9 to 9.2 using Julian's sysupdater. Successful first try on both systems. I personally think "upgrading to 10.3 before downgrading" is just a placebo.

ok, I figured out why I'm having problems. I have a router level parental control enabled for the kids. turned it off and it works fine now. Now its saying the internet browser cannot be used at this time please check your network environment or try again later.

Read through this thread and keep playing around with it. With some speed and some luck, it should work.

First, did you put the proper CIA files in the updates folder? Second, did any of the CIA files install successfully during the downgrade process, or did it not even get that far? Third, have you tried rebooting the device?

Which version of sysUpdater did you use?
