Some more A9LH questions:

I have Luma now, should I update emunand before the OTP part?

Where are the secureinfo_a files?

I put the firmware.bin in the luma folder, not in the payload one, right?

The secure files gave to do with if the console was ever banned and you un banned it. Or if you did a region swap. If you have not then don't worry about it.

Thank you. I don't need the firmware bin? It says the downgrade will fail if I don't have it. What does NTR stand for, it's abbreviated everywhere.

Sorry went to sleep as i said...
Tried going to luma by pressing select on bootup.. nothing.
Is there anything i can do now, with the setup i have got?
I have my otp file. All the backups made while following the guide and theoretically rednand still installed with firmware 11....

Is there even a possibility to backup without keeping a9lh? A i said i am not really sure what went wrong... This happens if you try to do this stuff after work until night...

I'm afraid that your only option for now is a hardmod, as it is impossible to downgrade using hombrew *hax from 11.0. You can find a list of hardmodders here, there's no one listed for Germany, but I guess there's at lease someone here that does it. If you have experience with soldering, you could even try it yourself.

After getting the hardmod, you'll have toflash a 9.2 NAND backup (you should have one if you didn't delete it) and re-install A9LH. You will not need to go back to 2.1 since you already have the OTP file.

If you didn't keep NAND backups, you can still downgrade from 11.0 using a hardmod.

Anyone know why the Hbl cia that I installed on my a9lh luma setup keeps crashing to a white screen. 5/10 attempts it will randomly do this showing "The home menu ropbin is ready".

When I had menuhax setup previously, it was fine and tbh, I had maybe like 3 crashes out of a 100 or more uses, as it seemed stable to me then, yet now it's getting annoying having to power on and off.

I have japanese 3dsLL mario edition and its firmware is 9.1.0-20j. How can I update it to 9.2? Should I just just the HBL and use sysupdater and download the 9.2 firmware for jap?

No, stay were you are. 9.1 is no different to 9.2. You can still do everything else fine on it.

I need some help with ntr cfw basically Im using a guide and it says to find my 3ds ip through my router confiuration menu? not really sure how to enter that is there another way I can obtain it (i tried googling what is my ip and using that but then I get a cant connect because the device probably refused error)
EDIT: got it but rip my internet is 2 slow

 

[opmas]

So i can just simply install the luma3ds to 9.1? I dont want to install the a9lh. I just want to use the emunand to install cfw

Yes, 9.0 to 9.2 are basically almost identical.

While you don't want A9LH, it is still recommend to use the A9LH guide for a menuhax+redNAND//emuNAND setup.
Link: https://github.com/Plailect/Guide/wiki

Just do Part 1 to setup Menuhax, skip Part 2 as it doesn't apply to you, and do Part 3, and for Part 4, stop at Section I, Step 25-26. This is so you have FBI injected into redNAND//emuNAND, and have made NAND backups.

Is there another way to backup saves than svdt?

JKSM or SaveDataFiler (.cia only ?)

And i'm back... i've bought a 11th 3DS I'm ashamed... but it was a collector in sale so OTL

SO O3DS XL w/ Mk7 so I'd like to install a9lh with keeping the Mk7 as a... trophy ?

Any way to do the a9lh process and keep the Mk7 ?

Thanks o/

 

[Venat]

Thanks

One small thing, is it normal that the sav files say they have last been edited on the day they were created, not when the game was saved?

Is Mk7 the pre-installed one? If it is. Then it will be tied to the system. You can just go to the eshop at a later time to re-download it back onto the system.

Offtopic: Also. Don't be ashamed. I want more systems to add to my collection. Hunting for a EUR or JPN Black N3DS (non-xl).

yep it's ! So I don't have to make a NNID in order to keep it ? Or everything like that ? I can start like any 3DS without anything on it ? And I'll be able to keep it after all ?
Other question, the Nintendo badge arcade is not a problem with a9lh ? I've seen many bans etc ? I'd like to use badges AND custom badges so :/

Thanks !

Yeaaah I know, good luck for that ! Still a little offtopic, but i speak french, if you need help to find a EUR N3DS on websites like amazon.fr, tell me !

Can I do the a9lh setup with emunand instead of rednand or is there anything that could result in a brick?

Everytime you see RedNAND, replace it in your mind with EmuNAND and everything will be fine.

Rednand and emunand are interchangeable. Not following the guide will lead you to a brick. Read it a few times before and then read it again while doing it

No you don't need an NNID to keep it. Just do a system format and follow the guide like always. After your done, just go on the eshop and download it back onto your system..

As for Badge Arcade, I've never used it, so can't help you with that, hopefully someone with more experience and knowledge on that can chime in and help answer that for you.

Offtopic: Thanks for the offer, I'll keep that in mind~ <3
