Uh, yeah, and no where in the quote below or in anything Apache said does he say anything about AGB_FIRM and whether or not both sysNAND and emuNAND needs patched AGB_FIRM installed.
Look back a page:

"It appears GBA games also have to have a copy on sysnand to work on emunand. (emunand does not have to be linked with sysnand). If I start a GBA game on emunand that's not also installed to sysnand, it won't boot."

This was the problem I've been having all day. If I removed the CIA from sysNAND, I couldn't launch it from emuNAND.
And that's what you asked about.
Just to confirm what Apache said.

To use custom GBA games, you must install a copy of the CIA into sysNAND AND emuNAND.
The patched AGB_FIRM only has to be installed into emuNAND though. You can leave sysNAND AGB_FIRM stock.

So I'm new to this, I have a sysnand on 9.2 and an emunand on 9.8. I don't have ninjhax/Gateway/any other flashcarts.
Apparently downgrading to 4.x is the only way to get a CIA installer and I don't have anything other than my 3DS.
Is there a chance for my 3DS to get bricked?
It's very safe. You could verify the hashes after you download the .dg file just to be sure.

Regarding *this*, I don't think it matters who is "cool" with what... What are they gonna do? Ha!

I think with PBT-CFW is used, but I'm not sure.
So is @Roxas75 cool with all this?

ps: my NANDs are unlinked, so how can I install a GBA rom to my sysNAND, anyone?
 
Got ssb working,
Not sure why it crashes earlier. I changed a few stuff.
Anyway, from pasta9.2 ninjhax cfw, i switched to this by droping the modded rx on the sd and loaded via spider. I dont have emunand installed anyway,
i included the slotkeyx file, rxtools recognizes the keyx, ssb didn't work.
I deleted keyx, ssb now works.

Maybe i need thekeyx file only if im on 4x fw.
Ima try going back tro 4x and get rx working with mset since im using 9.2 for pasta and current loading rx via spider. :)
Ive yet to test attack on titan

Plug the 3DS in before downgrading. Last thing you need is a dead battery part way through a reflash. If you're going to verify the hashes (you really should) and you're on windows or OSX I found Hashtab to be an excellent tool.

You only really need the 7.x key if you're below FW 7.x on sysNAND.

Perhaps your key file is not the correct one......

So where did you get SSB? Did you convert it yourself or you just got a copy of it somewhere?

Stop supporting and developing rxTools would be a thing. And considering rxTools have a few bugs that corrupts Sysnand/emunand, that's a bad thing for you.

Aside from the fact that Roxas was already considering enabling piracy to rxTools. Kind of sad that this happened without his permission. Things like this is how we make incredible devs quit the scene and keep things to themselves.

I'm pretty sure Roxas is pissed.
I don't think he's annoyed at all. He knew it would eventually happen.

Remember what he wrote:
As for now it doesn't patch signature checks, so no piracy or homebrews

Of course he would never release a complete CFW.
But that's only because he's not looking for legal issues with Nintendo, not because he's an anti-piracy SJW.

If someone else circunvents his protection and patches the signature checks, that's none of his business anymore.
 
@piratesephiroth Long time no chat ^.^/
hey @Reisyukaku this one is one of the goods ones i was telling you about :3

Okay so I have successfully downgraded to 4.2.0-9U sysnand. Do I have to install the MSET exploit or can I just use the gateway FW through spider and boot classic mode to install BigBlueMenu(correct me if I'm wrong, also sorry for the off topic questions)
