For everyone who keeps struggling with the buggy FBI, shouldn't you consider downgrading your system today? Everything would be much easier if you take the time to learn and downgrade your system.

I decided to pull the trigger and actually gave enough effort to set up my 3DS and now I have 9.2 sysnand with 10.3 Emunand with one click CIA installer. Almost poured 5 hours into it and now I can install everything.

Seriously guys, you really should consider it.
 
@DutchyDutch the legit CIA for Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer is out. Can you add it to the EUR CIA list. And can you add a troubleshooting for it, if it won't update or launch then you need to delete it with FBI and reinstall it with the eshop and install the update after that.
 
How many bricks have there been so far?

Also, is it really safe to install more then 1 legit CIA on the same system? If you buy them preinstalled you will get only 1.
I'm wondering about this because I read you can redownload them from e-Shop :unsure:

Okay, I´ll do it after I get rxTools installed

AFAIK, there are still no reported bricks from installing legit CIAs via the unofficial FBI installer with MCH2
 
Can you explain me, how I can do this?
For example use the save I got from Animal Crossing Happy Home Designer Retail in the digital version?
There's an app on the eShop called Save Data Transfer Tool to transfer your physical save to your digital version.

If you want the save to be on both physical and digital, I recommend making a backup of the physical version before doing this, via a Save Data Manager homebrew app (there's more than one, pick one you want). And that should be it, it's that easy.

n3ds doesn't have 10.3 emuNAND which is the only reason I haven't downgraded. Either way, I already mastered this buggy app and installed all the CIAs I wanted throughout multiple sessions.

If you wanted 10.3 emunand, shouldnt you just update it normally?
 
But then I wouldn't have 9.2 sysNAND. :/
Im no expert, in fact i just noobishly set up my 3ds for the first time, but i think it shouldnt update the sysnand too if you updated emunand, given that you unlink both of them befofe updating.
 
Thought I should write it here in case someone has the same problem.

If you install Animal Crossing HHD and it gives you "An error has occurred" screen (I got it even with the update), just delete the game (and the update) and re-download them directly from the eShop for free.

That fixed it for me, I hope this will help someone :)

How do I do that what way should I do that?

Ok, basically I want 9.2 sysNAND and 10.3 emuNAND. That way I can play online and all my 9.6+ games. If I downgrade to 9.2 on a n3DS I can only go up to 9.5 emuNAND which is not what I want.
 
Btw guys,noob question. Iirc you can only play eur(or any not-native to your region) games with Hans. How do you delete them if they don't show up in the software management in the system settings?

They do show up in software management. I have installed US Mario & Luigi on my EUR console, it shows up.
