I was following the Hyoretsu's guide, but when it was time to take off the sd card my 3ds shut down (i might have clicked somewhere while i was taking it out). But it turned on "normally", it was on 2.1. So I continued the guide, and loaded arm11.bin. Did all that right, and now I'm stuck on Hourglass9. It's stuck on step 19. (19. Select "SysNAND Backup/Restore...", "SysNAND Restore (keep a9lh)". Now, press LEFT, UP, RIGHT, UP and A. Press A. After it successfully restores your 11.2 backup, just reboot your console.) It says "No usable file found". What file? ;-; *help*
The NAND backup you are supposed to take either before or during the ctrtransfer. If you moved it to your computer, you need to copy it back onto the SD. If you didn't make one, you made a rather dumb (but fixable these days, thankfully) mistake.

If you don't have a backup, you need to do a 9.2.0 ctrtransfer: https://3ds.guide/9.2.0-ctrtransfer
 
try a diff entry point.

THIS IS NOT ABOUT LUCK.
there is something wrong with soundhax ability to work with safehax.

IT IS NOT LUCK. it is not random.
I literally just ran it 8x on another 3ds IN A ROW with OOT.

I am convinced this is soundhax messing with it.
Yup, definitely. Just did two different 2DS that just wouldn't budge with repeated tries on sound hax on the first shot using OotHax

Okay so ran into my first issue. NNID says it's linked to another device.... I formatted my 3DS prior to this so that this wouldn't happen. How can I fix this?
If you formatted after taking a NAND backup and then just restored your NAND backup, you are no longer signed in on the server side. There are two options to fix it: either format again and log in to your NNID (after which you can restore your NAND backup and still be logged in to your NNID) or follow this to remove your NNID login from your console to allow you to sign back in: https://3ds.guide/troubleshooting#rm_nnid

I formatted before taking a NAND Backup
 
Here's a new build of safehax. This one has the latest fasthax, but with the breaking code omitted. Let me know if it's any better.
If not, just wait till ned polishes this up later today.

still not working for me, guess i will have to wait for stable releases
