It doesn't seem to be corrupted for me but I will reupload the file!

Same with corrupt download with Chrome. Reason I can see when I use Total Commander is when the browser drops connection to the website it disconnects. Use a "Download manager" else this won't do. Op please use Mega or something but put your Money URL thingy on it.


EDIT:

Op, can you add a progress counter? I really dislike seeing a static picture not knowing if it's installing or not.

every time i try to download it, it stops. can we get alternate link please.

 

[Ruby Gloom]

Holy shit, this is amazing. Keep up this work, man!

If chelsea adds a % counter or something like that it will take a bit longer to install a cia (just like the others cia installer), thats why soon! doesnt have one so it can install cia files a bit faster, just be patient.

@DjoeN
show me a screenshot of your SD Card root
also, please, type the entire error

So I was genuinely curious: what cia installer reigns supreme? The creator of SOON! claims that it's fast... like very fast and that by not having the percentage bar, the time to install a cia is shortened. Because I had a lot of free time on my hands, I decided to put that to the test. So I decided to test two cia installers I thought were the most popular against SOON!: FBI and BBM and what I found was interesting. So to begin, all my trials started from a reboot. From there, I entered the cia versions of each and installed a game no one's heard of... Unchained Blades. I first tested FBI which took a respectable 10:15:88 minutes to complete. Next I tried out BBM and that took a bit longer standing in at around 11:36:77 minutes, so a minute plus longer than FBI. And then I went to SOON!, going into it, I thought that a 10 minute cia install was the minimum... boy was I wrong. SOON! managed to install the cia in 9:49:94 which is much quicker than FBI. And to add on to it, because SOON! doesn't have a percentage gauge, I was late in pressing the stop button on my phone, so it could've easily been 1-2 seconds faster than what I said.

So to recap:
SOON! - 9:49:94
FBI - 10:15:88
BBM - 11:36:77

See?
I told all of you SOON!2 it's faster than every other CIA installer!
How's that for a surprise?

Lol yeah I was really surprised to see a sub 10 minute install. If I have time later, I might mess with some other cia installers like NASA or Devmenu, but right now, you're looking to have the fastest cia installer. Sorry for doubting you

I just tell everyone "Test it you will be surprised"
I was sure SOON!2 was the fastest one

When you try NASA and DevMenu 11.4 just tell me

Like, you I only tested BBM and FBI. (also tested BigRedMenu)

 

[Luglige]

Have. To. Install. This. NOW!

isnt bbm the same as devmenu but with a different banner and name?

 

[TeconMoon]

Quick question: I know custom theme CIA files don't install correctly with anything that isn't DevMenu or BigBlueBox, does this CIA installer solve that problem?
