No thank you I do not have the guts to try this XD, I have a 3ds already on 9.2 with Emunand, and my brother has a 3ds on 11.2, and he wanted to downgrade to 9.2 since both he and I do not understand A9LH so we stayed with Emunand.

As you wish, I just wanted you to know the odds of bricking are 0% since Decrypt9 and then Hourglass9 do it all automatically, you only have to press select to install arm9 once on 2,1 XD
You can always install arm9 later, when you feel like trying it. I didnt regret going from rxtools to Luma, but when I started using arm9, I fell in love with all the posibilities it has. You can always ask us for help in some months if you want to take the step ^^
 
So I just cannot, for the life of me, get passed #8. I've tried the troubleshooting and I've triple checked my file locations. Every time I try to start SafeA9LHInstaller I get stuck on black screens. Is it just a luck of the draw type of thing?

Edit: All I can say is DERP.

are you using it with a game cart in slot?

If you're on #8, you should launch safehax, which'll automatically launch Decrypt9WIP, not SafeA9LHInstaller.

That hurts tho :(
RXTools is so outdated, its hard to even think of how low the boot rate was XD
the boot rate was normal it's very rare freeze during boot for me XD
 
I finished step 16 but now my 3DS will not turn on. The light turns blue for a second and then fades out. I tried booting with and without SD card and also removed battery for a few seconds. Am I hosed?

Hold start on boot, and then follow the guide ^^

I tried to do this guide again on my brothers o3dsxl but when doing the backup it said not enough space he has a 4gb SD card

After step 10...do I take the sd card our with the system still on? I am trying to read and make sure I understand the guide before I start actually doing the steps, and I am not understanding how we can add things to the micro sd root with the card in the 3ds and the console on...I am guessing you take it out while 3ds is on and put in PC...follow the steps...return sd card to 3ds press start?

You need ~1GB free space for the backup.

If its on Decrypt9, Select dismounts it so you can put it on your computer without worrying, yh
