I'm pretty sure that is the issue. Since .bin files aren't supported anymore. It's .firm that is the new thingOkay, I'll do that in a bit! I'll post something if it doesn't work out for me!

Check your boot9strap folder. It won't show that it dumped them, it just does it.I updated successfully but having trouble dumping arm11, arm 9, and otp. Its not loading. Is a backup needed like dumping a backup of nand?
I used the file provided on the site for sighax, and that was it. If it's bricked, that's fine. I'm okay with soldering, so if I need to hardmod than I won't worry too much.From what I can tell unlike boot9strap, sighax actually fully installs target_firm.bin, rather than setting it to launch boot.firm from SD root every boot. Did you have target_firm.bin on your SD, and if so what was it? This is probably why you bricked, and thus is why we have a guide.
Sighax is already looking like a fail compared to b9s just because of ease of use.

B9S still boots from the SD card, it just uses a file called boot.firm instead of arm9loaderhax.bin.I'm more concerned with a separate bootloader like ctrbootmanager, since now that we are no longer booting from the SD card Luma3DS updates now carry a risk of bricking your 3DS.
success! Its in the folder thanks.Check your boot9strap folder. It won't show that it dumped them, it just does it.

Restore a nand backup and try again? If both say firm is corrupted while backing it up then it probably is corrupted
no decrypt 9 yet though
From what I see the sighax page doesn't actually have any target_firm.bin. What did you use? Chances are you installed something that wasn't a firmware as a firmware which borked the 3ds.I used the file provided on the site for sighax, and that was it. If it's bricked, that's fine. I'm okay with soldering, so if I need to hardmod than I won't worry too much.

One of your files or more are broken. Try redownloading all the files and use a tool like Teracopy to copy the files since it will check if the file transfer was successful.Any idea how or why it would say the firm is corrupted on both systems? Both were setup just the beginning of this week following the 3ds.guide site to the letter and turned out great. So if they are indeed corrupted, isn't that indicative of something in the current guide having caused the corruption to begin with?
Yes, it can. The person I responded to assumed that updating Luma carried a brick risk. It doesn't. It still looks for a payload on SD, and then a payload on CTRNAND. The only difference is the name of the payload.er....if you follow the guide, it can actually boot without an SD card.
Why not use FTPDB and Filezilla?One of your files or more are broken. Try redownloading all the files and use a tool like Teracopy to copy the files since it will check if the file transfer was successful.
I was bold and used FTPDB and Filezilla on 2 different N3DSes. It's NOT RECOMMENDED but I'm stupid and it worked.
Im not really tech savy for the 3ds, what is being able to pull down future updates? Does that mean blocking updates? And update firmware accordingly?IMO, being able to pull down future system updates and being able to update your cfw accordingly is a pretty damn big benefit of going this route....
