@Steveice10 just curious, but is there any rhyme or reason behind giving FBIv2 a different unique ID?
Homebrew [Release] FBI - Open source CIA installer
Most likely so you can install it with FBI ver 1. The 3DS isn't terribly fond of an application reinstalling itself. Even FBI v2 fails to let me reinstall over itself from what I can tell. The way I evaded the problem with my CIA installer QRWebLoader was to write a second small app called AutoLoader who's sole purpose in life was to let you AppJump() to a different app, download and reinstall the originally running app, and AppJump() back (and optionally uninstall itself when finished, so you won't see how it pulled things off). I'm still waiting to see how @Steveice10 resolves this same problem with FBI, as I'm sure he's got a more elegant solution up his sleeve for it...
I never had problems updating FBIv2 through itself, I just restart the app and it's updated!
Wouldn't make FBI jump to itself after updating be enough?
Well I'll be damned, you're right! You can reinstall as long as it's a different version. With FBI v2 it only bitches about already being installed if you're trying to reinstall the same version you're already on. So yeah, you can just reinstall and jump back to yourself to make it update. It would have been nice to have figured that out a few months ago...
Wondering how to use FBI with .tik files?
Directions for FBIv2.0-2.0.5:
1. Have FBIv2 installed on your 3DS.
2. Have the .tik file of the game you want to download somewhere on your SD card.
3. In FBIv2 select the SD option and navigate to where the (Gamename).tik file is located on your SD card and install it.
4. Visit the eShop on your 3DS and use the searchbar to find your game.
5. In the games page it will have the option to redownload.
6. Redownload the game!
Directions for FBIv2.1:
1. Have FBIv2 installed on your 3DS.
2. Have the .tik file of the game you want to download somewhere on your SD card.
3. In FBIv2 select the SD option and navigate to where the (Gamename).tik file is located on your SD card and install it. Keep track of the title ID for the ticket you just installed.
4. Still in FBI navigate to the 'Tickets' option and find the Title ID of the .tik you just installed.
5. Select Install from CDN!

What exactly is not working? Is it trying to install and then giving an error after everything is loaded?
I use shameless or ciangel to download the ticket. I go into fbi. I go into tickets. I try to install the ticket from cdn and it gives me an error.
If you are using COangel you don't need to go into FBI. Just install right with CIAngel. Or download the CIA with it and then install with FBI if you must
ok thanks. Also, i have super smash bros for 3ds. I have previously purchased some dlc. However, I have found the tik for dlc. When I install it, I do not get all the dlc, only the dlc i bought. Any Ideas?
From my experience if Getting DLC is best to outright pirate it or Buy everything.
You will have to reinstall the DLC.cia every time you access the eshop or any time your NNID is accessed
alright thanks. I thought that if i installed the ticket, i would be able to get it all permanently.

FBI v2.2.0 has been released.
- Added option to install titles from the CDN directly after installing each of their tickets.
- Added option to extract a title's SMDH.
- Added scroll bars to lists that take up more than a single screen of space.
- Lists no longer need to completely refresh after an operation has completed, and maintain their previous position.
- Modified multi-item actions, such as batch CIA installs, to show the information of the current item on the top screen.
- Moved version indicator to the status bar.
- Fixed using QR codes with redirecting URLs.
- Fixed freeze when sleeping or suspending to the home menu during an asynchronous operation.
- Fixed freeze during a CIA installation.
- Miscellaneous internal clean-up and bug fixing.
I did this and my system lived. ty A9LH and backup from 3 months ago
Yup. I didn't do it myself but I already know that some people don't read the warnings and just do it anyways.

Sorry for another release so soon, but an important bug was brought to my attention, so I've released FBI v2.2.1.
- Display free space of all NAND partitions, when possible.
- Fix freeze when opening the QR code scanner.

TwoSpikedHands:
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:
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:
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:
@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:
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:
@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:
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:
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

@
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:
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 -

do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?

@The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
