Can someone do a short guide to downgrade without a card
Man that stupid sd lock switch is bloody annoying! Especially with some card readers.
Yes, user ChrisX930 did it, search for its post in the previous page.
I can boot into the CFW, however, after ~10 seconds, whenever I scroll over icons in the home screen, banners fail to load and doing anything besides scrolling causes a freeze, and of course, It fails to connect. I know my IP is correct as whenever I run run.bat, the WiFi light on the 3DS blinks.
The connection should work, I tried to ping the 3DS in CFW Server Mode (holding L while boot)

But still, I get "ctrclient: failed to connect"
this is my run.bat

Oh god, you seem so lost and out of your depth it's painful.
What are you trying to get done?
If you're looking to boot the gateway menu so you can backup your NAND, games or saves. You'll need to download the files for 3.0 ultra from the Gateway website. Inside the zip are 4 folders, ignore the blue card folder, ignore the save tool folder, inside the last folder is the launcher.dat this goes on the SD card inside your 3DS.
Put it back in your 3DS, turn it on and launch the Internet browser. Go to go.gateway-3ds.com and wait. The gateway menu should open momentarily.
If you need to load the menu up anytime again you'll need to hold down the L button.
If you're looking to downgrade I can't help you. But be warned, you'll lose all of you save games if you do.

Haha yeah i've done that a few times.
When I was 13 I was playing with an sd card lock and the switch fell out so it was locked forever lol
question... is the 4.2 or 4.5.. I dont know which one US consoles get... but when its downgraded.. is that real 4.x or a fake? meaning.. lets say its 4.x...... can this go up to 9.4 from nintendo itself?.... not saying I would..but is it possible... also.. if I downgrade to 4.x... can I put in Super Smash Bros and up it to 8.1? All of this safely mind you... and then if I wanted 4.x again.. just downgrade again? is this possible?
without a flash card mind you... can i do this without any flash card.. if so.. how
Yes you can, I don't own any flashcard (Getting a gateway in a few weeks) and you can downgrade, I am on a 4.2 Firmware (In the US)
Exactly the same way as you do it with a flash card.How do you do it without a flash card?
Exactly the same way as you do it with a flash card.
Copy the relevant files from the Gateway site to your SD, and launch the Gateway menu via the web exploit.
Make a backup of your NAND and keep it somewhere safe, then select downgrade from the Gateway menu.
Done.
Can someone give me a detailed step by step on how to do this safely without bricking? please.
Is it true that you lose all your saves and eshop stuff if you downgrade?
