Nice one! Have fun with your downgraded 3DS

Should be, 2DS firmware files are the same as O3DS. Just make sure your console is from the U region.

Exists any problem with MSET? (For unlink Nands)

 

[Hyura]

I just realised that I'm probably the only one here that didn't even touch any these hash, MD5 things...

probably that's why i'm stuck

Nope, a lot of people did that. Did you brick your 3DS?

Is there a link to this safemode system updater thank you

Nope, there's not such thing as a link. You can only use it if you power on your 3DS while holding L+R+A+DPAD-UP.

No, yesterday, I got to 9.0.0, but I couldn't enter the Settings, so I went Safe Mode and got to 10.3, but now I can't get sysupdate to work through homehax

@Ratatapa I read here somewhere someone saying that you may manually reboot and it'll be fine, but I can't prove it, so... well... good luck

Maybe try updating to 10.3 and using menuhax again.

I'd wait at least 10 minutes. After that I'd manually reboot.

What's the % chance I have of getting a hard brick if i'm stuck like that

 

[SkyDX]

Hey! We were talking yesterday, remember?

I did the same thing and it worked (had to try 5 times). Go for it!

I know I know but this ? really worries me :/

Are you Julian's sysupdater?

I didn't see any hardbricks while using that. A lot of people got stuck on that screen and had to manually reboot (including three friends of mine).

But you don't have any other options, actually.

I know I know but this ? really worries me :/

A lot of people are using it, guess it's kinda safe, haha.

Downgrade successful for my 10.3.0-28E N3DSXL.
I used this tuto to know exactly what to download and where to put it, except for the sysUpdate files as I used julian20's version and this method to solve the "failed to get CIA files...".
Good luck!

Huh, that version started and let me begin the downgrading process, but just gives me an error occured yet again. It's the third time this has happened to me now
Thanks for pointing me to the idea that you can replace boot.3dsx tho! I'm gonna try that for the fourth and final time with the version in OP after safe mode is done getting my careless butt back to 10.3. If not I'm just waiting for KTM

EDIT: It's on my New 3DS, of course.

Anyone who is getting failed to get cia file info run ftbrony with menuhax it worked for me now I am downgrading!

hey i am running ftbrony should i just exit it then try to start sysupdater again?

 

[raizeny]

Does anyone knows how to solve ''that'' screen on sysupdater start
Kernel 11
#1 xxxxxxxxx
#2 xxxxxxxxxxx
#3 xxxxxxxxxxx
#4 xxxxxxx
#5 xxxxxxxxx

Something like that.

o3ds 10.3, homehax.

edit: Now i got to the #7, that's some progress.

I downgraded my EU O3DS from 9.9 to 9.2 yesterday, but it seems I can't install rxTools. Is there a way to find out if the downgrade was successfull?
EmuNAND9Tool worked, I already backed up my NAND, also EmuNAND is working, but not the installation of the CFW. Homebrew is also no Problem with browserhax.

Now I'm wondering if I would have to update to 10.3 and then downgrade again or if I could just run sysUpdater on 9.2 to "fix" my problem?

The method used by Sparks seems to work:

Good luck!

When I tested launching sysUpdater from HomeMenuHax, it freezes on a black screen without ever displaying any text on either screen, following Sparks' method and substituting the boot.3dsx on the SD root with the sysUpdater .3dsx fixed the issue and launched sysUpdated almost instantly (so fast I didn't even see the 8 steps part).

EDIT: This only worked once, now it's back to booting to a black screen again
