I've tried about 50 times, tried all of the entry points (Menuhax, Browserhax, Ninjhax, OoThax) multiple times, using proper CIA's for 9.2.0-20U (MD5's matching) on a New 3DS (Hyrule Edition) with zero success.

Most of the time the sysUpdater hangs before displaying, when it does and Y is pressed, I get (every time):
titleException:
main.cpp:148: Result: 0xD900182F
Failed to get CIA file info!

I know others have had success on the new 3DS on 10.3. I even formatted the 3DS to make sure I'm using a fresh system. No luck :(
I had this same problem on my hhd n3ds, and following this to the letter and it worked the first time: http://gbatemp.net/threads/tutorial...grading-your-3ds.407888/page-106#post-5924376

Alright, I have my N3DS downgraded to 9.2. I tried doing the browser exploit with go.gateway-3ds.com, but it did nothing. Tried the DS Profile exploit by using GW_Installer.nds on my Supercard DSTwo, which it installed, but going to DS Profile in my 3DS settings, but it just took to me the regular DS Profile settings. Tried the OOT exploit on my eshop version, but the save file didn't show up. I don't have Cubic Ninja.

when you hit Y to downgrade, do you see anything happening on the screen or do you just wait for some message?

Wait and you should see some confirmations starting to go down your screen like ___.cia installed (kinda forgot what it says exactly), by the time you get this, you should see something.

    I want a 120hz 4k tv but crazy how more expensive the 120hz over the 60hz are. Or even more crazy is the price of 8k's.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Mostly why you never see TV manufacturers going post 60hz

    I only watch tv when i goto bed, it puts me to sleep, and I have a nas drive filled w my fav shows so i can watch them in order, commercial free. I usually watch Married w Children, or South Park

    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)
