Nope, I'm using Old 3DS and it didn't work. I used the tipps here, but the done-page still freezes.
1.Did you try to disable wifi?
2.Are you using menuhax?
3.Did you try to go into CHMM2, force exit and then boot FBI?
4.Did you try going into FTPbrony and then boot FBI?
Try all these things.
 
Setting up...
System Type: New
KObject address: FFF7116FC
Mapping pages for overwrite...
Overwrite Complete.
Map complete.
Restored Kernel memory.
Cleaning up...

---------------------------------

aaaand... for how much time is this cleaning up?

it was like this for 5 mins. (i guess...)

Infinite. You have to reboot if it doesn't say "Done." after like one second, because it froze.
 
Unless you REALLY want CFW, I would highly recommend against downgrading. There's the potential for it to come to 10.3 some time in the future.
memchunkhax2 only grants us ARM11 kernel. We need both ARM9 and ARM11 kernel for cfw.

As of right now the only two publicly known exploits that could give us ARM9 on up to 10.3 are ntrcardhax and arm9loaderhax.
ntrcardhax requires special custom hardware (highly probable GW will take advantage of that one to have true 10.3 support)
arm9loaderhax is N3DS-only

Things look pretty hopeless for O3DS users unless they get a GW, but maybe someone will release a public version of arm9loaderhax for proper cfw on 10.3 N3DS.

I really hope some company releases an NTRcardhax gamecard, then another company clones it for half the price ;P!

Mash a after initial loading screen
I've tried it. Sometimes I came into the menu, but when I wanted to install the cia, the error message came. I have the cia from the site with "chaos", so it should be legit. I think it's the error when you press a if it says "Cleaning Up...". I'm not sure because it goes so fast when you smash a.

Yeah, don't mash A. That does nothing.

Yeah,
if it is working correctly, you should never even see the cleaning up.

Have you heard anything more on arm9loaderhax ? Seems to have gone a little quiet
 
Then your CIA file might not be legit, try another file. Otherwise the only thing I can suggest is rebooting and trying again.
Maybe i should give installing a CFW a few more tries to, its just that even rxtools is too hard for me :(
