Hi guys, I saw a few people saying they didn't get a full downgrade and I am wondering if I got this msg after downgrading means it didn't do a the full job(it didn't seem to install a lot of files but I could be wrong):
Hacking do i need to downgrade again?

lol, I don't have a problem booting I just want to know how do I know I did a full downgrade?
already did the sd thing and the FW showed 9.2 and everything
I do not think you had a full downgrade, the same thing happened to me mid-dg. Try booting rxTools/PastaCFW/Gateway and let us know how it works (if it even works at all)
I would re-update to 10.3 and do the painstaking downgrade process another 270 times to get it to downgrade again. But if it boots CFW and whatnot i guess there isnt much a point unless you really need to clean some files (in which case you can actually do if you have access to sig-patches)

Oh, the downgrade-check is useless. If your downgrade screwed up in the slightest way it will report success but you won't be able to setup any CFW
Thanks mate!
So what's the best course of action now?
Wasn't a clean downgrade unfortunately.
Method would be update, then try again.
But unfortunately 10.4 is out now...
So unless you have a hardmod
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
really 10.4 is out already?
can't I just use sysupdater on my false 9.2? or us sysupdater to update to 10.3?
nice thought, which sysupdater should I use? tried to use the ones from the downgrade thread and i have a really hard time, so many times I've tried to reboot and run it but it didn't run even once
Couldn't you also use a game cart that has an update on it in order to update to a newer firmware below 10.4? Smash Brothers comes with 9.5.
You could insert that I think, allow it to update, then re-attempt the downgrade progress again.
This does assume however you own any physical game carts with a firmware update higher than 9.2. It might be a bit safer than using SysUpdate again.

it worked! BUTTTTTTTTTT
I tried to downgrade to 9.0 as you said but it still shows 9.2(when I checked the files in the SafeSysUpdater he said it was 9.2 too, although I am sure 100% I downloaded the 9.0 FW files) any ideas why that is?
also I tried the downgrade check again and now its positive, does it mean I can use cfw now?
Last edited by soulskeeper,
9.0 and 9.2 are very similar I think a 2-3 file difference my guess is it repaired 9.2 I would try opening the recovery menu if you can dont update, do a system format and see if everything is running smoothly first then try setting up CFW.it worked! BUTTTTTTTTTT
