Homebrew How to install legit CIA files 9.3-10.3

[Eddypikachu]

I got into the file browser and when I tried installing the mariuo kart 7 cia it said
"Install Failed!
Mario kart 7 US .cia
Source: SOURCE_AM_START_CIA_INSTALL (0x13)
Module: MODULE_NN_OS (0x6)
Level: LEVEL_PERMANENT (0x1b)
Summary: SUMMARY_WRONG ARGUMENT (0x8)
Description: DESCRIPTION_INVALID_COMMAND (0x2f)
Press start to continue"
What did I do wrong?

Thought I'd give it a couple more goes - it worked! What I did, and not sure if this has any impact, is when it was loading (on the blue screen or thereabouts) I ejected the game that was in. I did this a couple of times each time I got different results than I usually did - could be chance, could be that doing this alters the timing slightly?

Tested it. Before the dark blue screen, I ejected my OoT card and guess what? I can install Super Mario 3D Land now!
Dutchy should add those on the thread.

Some screenshots for those that like screenies of failed attempts

Note: All screen are from 3 systems! N3DS XL / N3DS / N3DS XL Animal Crossing Happy Home Designer bundle

1. Most common screen you will look at when it freezes

2. Another regular freeze screen

3. Less common freeze screen but you'll see it enough times

4. A more rarer screen, but after 60+ tries you'll know the screen good enough

5. The screen that's less common, and will make you very happy, untill you notice, noting works! and happiness goes to anger after a few of those and still not able to do anything!

Try to eject your DS/3DS card before the blue screen appears. It should take you to the menu. Worked for me.

See what i mean
and i have 3 systems (all N3DS) that give me such screens for more then 7 hours of trying.

 

[CiroOtta]

@DutchyDutch Someone might have already told you this, but 4 hours ago an EUR legit .cia of Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer had appeared in that ISO site. So it's time to update the list in the main post xD.

The .cia just have one problem that you may want to point out: we must redownload it from eShop or it won't work - at least as a friend of mine told me.

This is literally the best solution. Quit wasting time opening other apps and other ideas you see popping up.

 

[arcticnoah]

So I keep getting to the browser, but installing is the new problem...

The ejecting cartridge method from Kevin works too.
