I want to know as well , i'm confused, as it seems the exploit is working (*hax) but does that mean memchunkhax2 is still present? i've read mixed answers

memchunkhax2 was patched out in 10.4 iirc

No this does not work in 10.4

I can't seem to install Mario Kart 7. Another user had an issue but never reported they got it working. I keep getting an "Description_Service_Command" error. I'm on 9.5 firmware. I haven't tried other CIA yet.

Any idea?

Does it says INVALID_ARGUMENT or INVALID_SIGNATURE?
If it's the first one you didn't got the ''Done'' line.
If you have the second one, your CIA is not legit.

NASA 1.2 and 1.1 would not load on 9.9 period. NASA 1.0 loads 9/10 times. Find this old version if you are on 9.9 and stop banging your head on the wall.

You can add yo kai watch to the list of legit cias. I saw someone upload it on a site.

Is it a true legit? Or just a cartridge dump cia?

Can't make a legit copy unless the tickets get dumped with it iirc

Its true legit. He got it from the red 2ds bundle.

Yup, I seen what you mean.

the download link was removed though... Just has his ticket.db

But it downloads just fine with funkycia.

I had the second lol but it was legit. I just installed it with NASA instead. Zero issues with that installer, whereas FBI half the time wouldn't even run.

Can you install updates/dlcs once you've got a legit cia? I'm trying to get Smash, but I want the DLC to get Bayonetta.

you can install updates/dlc fine without even having the game, so sure it will work
but if you are above 9.3 and don't have real hax, you won't be able to install updates/dlc without going to the eshop, you won't be able to install them via cia because we cannot make/install legit cias of updates/dlc

Maybe we can try importing saves of DLC character already on it.

Im just holding out for the pokemon R/B/Y hopefully someone can pull these off as a legit one to install before I update.. not going the CFW route just because i dont want to lose all the installed games/save data for them.

so close to finishing my oras pokedex.

Fun fact: I downgraded and have emunand with custom firmware and still have all my game saves.

So don't let the "I'm gonna lose all my game saves" stop you because the only way you can lose data is if you downgrade wrong.

Just do your research and everything will be ok.
