This happens when you have LEGITIMATE DLC installed and enter eShop. Themes are a great example. Say you donwloaded that free Sonic BOOM theme, but then installed the theme pack CIA. Entering the eShop will remove all themes BUT the Sonic BOOM theme. This also happened to me with the Smash DLC on my official cart similar to OP's friend. In the end I ended up purchasing the DLC through eShop in Classic Mode and haven't fooled with the DLC CIA files.
My themes always get removed when entering eShop too, so I've moved to only purchasing the ones I really like. I am bummed however because I really like the Famicon theme, and it's not available for purchase
Edit: I also have the DLC CIA installed for FF:Theatrythm and it has never been deleted.
One other thing to note is if you are using an official cart or not. If you are, you need to be in Classic Mode which means the DLC needs to be installed to SysNAND for it to be recognized.
Just to be safe, whenever I have to access the eShop, or whenever any of my installed DLC fails to show up, I go into System Settings and delete all of it, then I reinstall it with BBM.
Does anyone know which game might be the easiest/fastest to check to see if the DLC is still showing up? Right now I am booting up Mario Golf World Tour to see that the four DLC characters are still available, but it takes about a minute or so.
Huh, I must be very lucky then. My Smash CIA DLC only gets removed when I access the eShop, not when I login to NNID on something else.When I was playing Hyrule Warriors Legends I went into the downloadable content section and hit receive presents just one see what it would do and when I realized it was making me sign in to my NIND I exited the game and checked my Smash CIA. DLC gone, so I had to reinstall. (I own a legit copy as well)
I think the person had it right by saying we lose DLC whenever we connect to our NIND. It sucks because I like going into the eshop sometimes. Is there a way to remove my NIND or do I need that to access the eshop?
Why is is always the friend? The best ones are "So I went to the store to grab something to eat, and when I came back my friend had updated my Sysnand."
higher chance of shit going down if your friend's name is chad. damn chads.THIS ONE KILLS ME EVERYTIME LOL. Like friends even ask to play your handheld lmao.
You'd be surprised. I have a couple of friends that're curious about my softmodded 3DS. I let them mess with it, but I watch over their shoulders like a creeper. I'm not too worried, though, they're not stupid. Anything beyond just booting up a game/emulator or the odd homebrew program they tend to avoid.THIS ONE KILLS ME EVERYTIME LOL.

They'd have to disable the filtering I have set up on my router first, which is passcode protected. I have a couple of precautions in place, so no worries.Inb4: "Having fun with FireRed eh? Well, gonna go take a quick piss"
You come back to a fully updated 10.5 sysNAND

Shots fired!Also, they'd know better than expecting to play a crappy Pokemon game on any of my systems.
Install the themes with CHMM2 and they won't get removed.
I saw that post earlier and bookmarked the CHMM2 thread to check it out.
