Hacking Is it safe to downgrade a sysnand which Arm9loaderhax and Reinand CFW?

[godlover9000]

I have a 3ds where I followed this guide: https://github.com/Plailect/Guide/wiki/Get-Started
to completion and I wanted to know whether it was safe for me to downgrade the sysnand back to version 9.2 or not.

Thanks for reading this!

Why do you need to downgrade?

FBI keeps failing to install games and is giving me an unspecified error 0x1 and I wanted to see if it was because I was back on 10.7 or not.

Are you sure you're in CFW?

I thought that arm9loaderhax made it so you boot into CFW XD so I would assume so unless I am misunderstanding the guide XD (is quite possible.)

You are in CFW you just need to inject FBI into the HS app (unless you are already or already have it in CIA form)

There's also miniCIA by Zoogie if your NATIVE_FIRM is low enough (but the OP is apparently on 10.7, so that won't help here; I was mentioning it more for knowledge's sake).

already done (an earlier step in the process which I originally did when I was booting cfw from the homebrew launcher before arm9launcherhax). Now I just need to investigate why fbi will not install certain software on my 3ds all of a sudden (it worked the first few time but has not worked since and I have not made any changes to the system). I wonder if 10.7 could be preventing it but that does not make sense as other software was installable in 10.7.

Could likely be just a bad backup if just one file doesn't work

it seems to be with everything I have tried to install since last night. I will try with a few more titles and get back to you with whether I have success or not (and maybe even try with a title I already installed as there is one I don't really mind losing).

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

it appears that you may be right as I was able to uninstall and reinstall a .cia title I had installed before (also don't worry because I check that it was not space issues on my SD card.)

why not use another of the cia managers? like bbb or red title manager

BBB is old. Devmenu 11.4 is the newest version.

What error is it giving you, exactly?

I have found some help in the IRC chat. I now use BBB and find that I have a better success rate with just converting the .3ds file into a .cia on my own

What error is it giving you, exactly?

The error it gave was

Install failed!
Animal Crossing Happy Home Designer USA ...
Source: SOURCE_FSFILE_WRITE (0x1c)
Module: MODULE_NM_AM (0x20)
Level: LEVEL_STATUS (0x19)
Summary: SUMMARY_INVALID_ARGUMENT (0x7)
Description: <unkown> (0x1)​

I found that the .cia file was invalid (using bbb which tells you the status before you try to install a file). It is much more effective to make your own .cia files imho now.
