Homebrew I need to send a file to my 3DS. Help?

Okay, so: I have only freeShop and FBI v2.2.2. I need to update FBI for the URL install but I can't. I have two Android devices and that's it. I tried reading a QR code but FBI refuses to read it. So, how do you use the network install feature?

You can't go into FBI, scroll down to update and update FBI?

Get a QR-Code for a FTP Manager then use FTP over your phone hotspot.

No, that feature isn't in this verion of FBI.

Could you perhaps provide more intructions?

FBI 2.2.2 doesn't have the Update feature at the bottom. Is there something preventing you from installing the newer 2.4.5 .cia version from a PC @skullkeeper94 ?

if u have a new 3ds, there's a built-in ftp app. that's what I use. u can even map the network drive for easy access.

I have an old 3DS XL.

Scan this with FBI:

Spoiler

That should install ftpd, from there you can use that app and an android ftp client app to send files to your 3ds.

Or do what I did before and insert your 3ds microsd into your phone :^)

I made the "smart" move of using an actual SD card. The only thing that seems to be stopping me is that FBI is refusing to read any QR codes. Yeah. I have no clue why either.

Try turning up the brightness on your phone to max? That usually helps it read QRs, because the 3ds camera is shiiiiit
