No, it's more like just pre-installed games from bundled consoles. Because I installed Super Smash Bros Legit CIA, then deleted it completely off my SD Card and yet I could redownload it from e-shop. (What I did indeed.)
Really?I'll try too, but i'm wonder if nintendo could ban for this xD

Really weird, i just launched yeti3ds and then FBI and it actually went to DONE! Unfortunately it froze on that screen but its progress. Yeti3ds is made with devkitARM and libctru so maybe thats why theres success there? Also as a sidenote I did decide to put my o3ds wifi on

I have no idea, haha. I did everything with ftPony.

Just curious, if Nintendo pushed a 10.4 update and I updated, would these CIAs stay?


Yes.

I think they would.

But you probably wouldn't be able to install other CIAs or downgrade.

Peeps, If that say "Cleaning Kernel" but able to enter FBI just reboot !
Don't even try to install it will NOT work.

You need to see "Done!"
and being able to to enter FBI after that message.
ANYTHING else beside "Done!" will result in error you all have during CIA install.

Yes that appear instantly !

just spam A when you load FBI
if freeze, reboot
if in FBI see if you informations on upper screen when you go Over a CIA:
If you have information as such :
Code:
File Size: "Numbers" bytes <"numbers"MB>
Installed Size : "Numbers" bytes <"Numbers"MB>
Title ID: "Id-Numbers"
Unique ID: "ID-Numbers"
Product Code: <N/A>
Platform: 3DS
Category: App
Version: (depend on the CIA)
Then it worked and can install LEGIT CIA ONLY.
You don't have such informations only "File Size: "Numbers" bytes <"numbers"MB>"? just reboot try again.

FBI is slow? then it hightly might have worked and you will get used of it.
Just check if it show information like said above.

Also install goes in same speed as if it was done without "slow" FBI :)

Such informations should be on Original post if not.

Ahain I advice to run it via OOTHax if you have it.
Menuhax (or what ever the name to put to it)
Doesn't work well for me (old 3ds 10.3.0-28E x2)

I can't be more precise, if you still need information ask but try carefully read before ask such questions have be anwsered several time already :)

@DutchyDutch You might want to add this in original post, if you do want then just do it might help anyone.

Eh, I've already installed all the legit CIAs I need for my region and these games are pretty much all I ever wanted anyway. Most of them are games I used to have but that were loaded on my old 3DS that got stolen. Nintendo refused to put them on my new 3DS even though I had proof of purchase because their eshop/account policies are ancient and draconian. So yeah, I don't personally need much else from CFW that isn't simply provided by these CIAs. Especially 'cause N3DS doesn't have up-to-date EmuNAND, I'd rather use these than worry about cryptofixing and constantly searching for good update CIAs, etc.

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
