erm... have i done a stupid mistake?
Tried so far:
- Copying the updated cake_108.rar to my sd-root while backing up "old" content
- bootet Emunand 9.5.0-23 and tried the online Update <-- Nope
- bootet Emunand 9.5.0.23 (after reinjecting it) and tried 10.3.0-28E Update with Sysupdate <-- nope
- replaced the "old" firmware.bin and cetk with the ones from the opening post after sysupdate <-- still nope

"Starting config from scratch" literally means all the options are cleared. Select your patches again. (And that previous post was a stupid post I wanted to delete)
ah ok, nothing wild - but maybe you could add that line of enabling the patches? of course that disabled emunand boot and signature checks....
But on the other hand - it didn't helped :/ Tried to boot for 5 Times now.
But just in case - the online update should worke right? because then i just gonna reinject my 9.5 emunand back and try to update it with the online update again.

Alright buuuut
i'm such an idiot wow.... i tried to install with sysupdater the old 3ds 10.3.0-28....
i've just used the right files for the n3ds with sysupdate and voila it worked.
i will do it again to crosscheck if this works.
Edit: is 10.3.0-28 the latest firmware?

well i didn't changed the firmkey.bin...
but that would explain why i had to redownload the firmware.bin and cetk.
Edit: currently reinjecting the 9.5 emunand and then i gonna try to do the online update with the "new" firmware.bin and cetk.

Well that was my point, maybe you needed a different firmkey.bin for 9.5+ firmware.bin files... But since you seem to have gotten it working, that theory is out the door and I updated my post
That's what I thought, but figured it was worth a shot. It was worth it since I learned something
Ok, so the online update worked but i had to boot 4 times untill it finally loaded
I will now copy the "old" firmware.bin and cetk from before the cake-update back and try to do it again.
But so far i think the problem lies in the old firmware.bin and cetk which i had.

You don't really need the cetk anymore (it's needed to generate firmkey.bin and is uneeded afterwards) and yes the 9.5 firmware.bin won't boot the 9.6+ emuNAND this is a known thingOk, so the online update worked but i had to boot 4 times untill it finally loaded

Yeah - the wrong firmware.bin and the fact that the patches have been disabled (which didn't let emunand boot) are 2 errors which i encountered, so i think those 2 options should be mentioned when such update-questions are happening.
And sorry for taking both of your times @dark_samus3 and @mid-kid.
After installing cake-cfw somewhere near december 2015 i haven't been loking around for the emunand stuff, just saw it today and tried it :/ Therefore the common knowledge about the 9.5 firmware.bin and the 9.6+ firmware.bin was missing (and i don't even know why we do need those files).
And thanks at this point for your cake-cfw! It is really easy to use - in my case much easier than rxtools.

The booting to blackscreen happens to me pretty frequently as well, however after a reboot or two, I can get it to eventually take (not sure how much that helps or not).
Think of it like this, the system applications (home menu, etc.) and services check which firmware version (which is what firmware.bin is
) and if it's not the right version it simply refuses to start. So, using a 9.5 firmware.bin means that 9.6+ applications say "firmware version doesn't match the version I want, so I will refuse to launch" all that is needed is the proper firmware and both the firmware and applications and services all are happy and the system boots... Could we remove these checks? Absolutely. Would it be practical to do so? Probably not... Spoofing the firmware version in the firmware.bin might be though but why do that when you can get the right firmware anyways?
May be a good thing because of 10.4's ASLR like thing.Think of it like this, the system applications (home menu, etc.) and services check which firmware version (which is what firmware.bin is
That's a very good point, but is the "ASLR" built into the kernel (where it should be) or is it built into the applications, since I think Smea mentioned that it was only in certain applications...
I'm surprised that this works with ReiNand, but what is likely happening is a result of your NANDs being linked.
Because your NANDs are linked, they share theme data. Since the theme data is where menuhax lives, both NANDs will attempt to autoboot menuhax when they start up. This causes a loop where it tries to load CFW, then load menuhax, then crash.
Possible solutions:
1) Unlink your NANDs via tinyFormat. Arguably the best solution, and the one that everyone and their mother will tell you to do.
2) Manually boot cakes every time from the Homebrew Menu. Yuck.
3) Use this modified version of CHMM2 and follow the steps to dissociate the themes (and thus avoid menuhax loops) between emuNAND and sysNAND. The idea is that since sysNAND doesn't have theme shuffle, it will ignore loaded theme shuffles. However, emuNAND will not ignore it, thus causing it to load the shuffled theme instead of the menuhax theme.
You might be able to use this to set up themehax in your emuNAND separate and distinct from menuhax in sysNAND, but I only recently set this up, so I haven't tried this.
I hope this helps!
He already got his problem fixed, the emuNAND patch got disabled so it was just looping sysNAND menuhax

@Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.+1

They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

@SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme -

A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."+2 -

anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media+1
if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them -

Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

@BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.
The issue is DRM -
@
cearp:
You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60
