Hi !
I'm reposting something since I've decided to do something else. I didn't check the 3DS Scene for a long time (did my last a9lh mid-may) and I saw that they updated to a9lh v2. Now that i've more time to play 3DS, I wanted to update my game to 11.1 but luma updater doesn't work anymore, so before updating luma and my system i'd like to update my a9lh

so i went to the famous guide, https://github.com/Plailect/Guide/wiki/Updating-arm9loaderhax
But at the first step there's things I don't have (like the key.bin or the files9 folder)
i think i just have to ignore the first step (deleting a file that I DON'T HAVE) and to create the folder for the second step and continue following the guide, but I really want to be sure.

Thanks !
You don't need to update to v2, the latest Luma works fine on v1 (my console was done in early March - when the Web compiler for arm9loaderhax.3dsx came about. And I'm on 11.1 with the latest Luma).

Wellp, I need to see why my Luma Updater doesn't want to work so -even if I still can downolad on the thread, it's really strange-
And the last BootNTR is working with the v1, i've seen people with problem, maybe i didn't read all properly

Thanks o/

Im on Part 2 (2.1.0 ctrtransfer) and Backup SysNAND to NANDmin.bin when prompted by pressing (A)

I don't have enough space to backup my nand and i really want a backup, i have another 64gb sd and my question is, can i move everything from my current sd to the 64gb one? Will this affect in the downgrade? ty (it's pretty important because im doing this atm hehe)
If you are able to quit and go back to the main menu of Decrypt9, you can pass Select to unmount your SD card, take it out, copy everything from it to the bigger card, put that one in, press B to remount, then continue on.

Get the Luma updater from the guide. Maybe that will work.

Oh and for BootNTR, I tried the one where you have to be in dev Luma, and that worked (haven't tried the newest yet).

If the 2DS has an NNID associated then it will be transferred to the N3DS and it can't ever go back to the 2DS (you can't transfer from new to old).

Well I just finished downgrading and installing luma using Plailect guide. Do I need to do anything special before I access the e-shop? Like spoof my IP or anything to avoid Nintendo banning me.

You can't get banned for having custom firmware. Just access the eShop as you normally would.

Hi, i just got my 2ds yesterday and went from completely new to full cfw with the awesome Plailect guide (very clear and useful for a noob like me, thank you) without any problem whatsoever.

Ok now onto the questions:

A) I might be sharing this 2DS with a relative but i'd like him to have his own games/saves and stuff, considering that i just have on my SD what i'm supposed to have after just finishing Plailect tutorial,
can i just copy and paste all the contents of my current SD to my relative's and it'll work too? Is it really that easy or is there something i need to do?

B) Considering i'm a total noob and followed the tutorial blindly like it was the bible, how do i install the freeshop? Is it just download a cia, copy to cias folder in sd then install with fbi? or if anybody could
kindly point me out to a freeshop guide/tutorial or whatever i'd appreciate it.

C) This question is similar to last one, if i want to get games on my own (freeshop-less) just to have them on the pc for backup in case i fill the SD and have to manage which games are in and out at any given time,
is it the same? as in... download cia, install with fbi and that's it? (<-- suppose i can delete cia after instalation if its like that?) What about the deletion process? do i uninstall with fbi?

I'm really sorry that i come with tons of questions but i'd rather ask the best than just find rumors or not up to date info... anyways thanks in advance to whoever answer.

Hey there, and welcome to gbatemp, so as much as I understand it and know (please feel free to correct me though).

A) Yes, you can copy all the data on the freshly made SD card through the Plailect tutorial as a base, in the guide it on part 3 check the bottom for the list of files and folder that MUST be on the SD card or your 3DS will not boot.

B) Yes it is in cia format, check here freeshop link or you can use the FBI app you installed, open FBI and open TitleDB then find freeshop. It will download and install the cia that way too. For free shop to have games in it you will need the proper title keys, there are lots of ways to get this, just do a quick google of encTitleKeys.

C) Edit: Oops I kinda miss read that, yes you copy the cia to SD and then install through FBI, but if you want to delete games installed to your SD card that are installed, easiest to go through the system settings -> data management -> Nintendo 3DS -> software and uninstall the content there. If you want to download the cias for later install or something you might want to check out 3DSeSTUFF which is a wrapper for FunKeyCIA that "make GOOD cias from eshop content, no tickets needed!"
Also once the cia is installed you can remove the cia file from the sd card as it will be taking up space (or do an install and delete when install the cia through FBI).

Hope this helps! The more you know and understand the better!

How do I know if the arm9loaderhax installed correctly? When I was at section 2 of part 3 in Plailect's guide my screen glitched out. I followed the side notes in the guide and everything else worked great. I just want to make sure I didn't miss this.

Thank you a lot, really appreciated. seems things are going smoothly now.... it definitely pays off to read things 10x and ask like there's no tomorrow. Not a single problem. =)

if you followed Plailect's guide, then remove the SD card and try to turn on your 3DS. If it immediately shuts down, that means A9LH is installed.

R4 is for DS games. For 3DS, either hardmod, another 3DS with custom firmware, or a Sky3DS.

Ok, so I just installed A9LH but restored sysnand with my 9.2 sysnand (keep a9lh) and I was wondering if it is now possible for me to boot into HourGlass9 and just flash emunandmin.bin to sysnand (keep a9lh).
Thanks, Wire55
