Hacking how do i remove a9lh and keeping 11.2?

[Kyousak]

Is it really? I just meant to leave A9LH and CFW installed, I didn't say to leave Freeshop installed, along with a bunch of pirated games.

Yup selling hacked consoles is illegal

That's really odd.

@nero99, @TarkinMX am i supposed to load FIRM from CTRNAND? i rather ask befor bricking.

 

[TarkinMX]

If you have Luma installed you will boot into it like you would godmode9 or something, I'd give instruction but I'm not home right now.

 

[wii94]

yes you are right, it boots into SafeA9LHInstaller. When i press uninstall it asks where to load 10.4 FIRM from, either sd card or CTRNAND.
I guess its from CTRNAND because on the sd card there is not such a file as far as i know. Just wanted to make sure before screwing things up

Not in Brazil, apparently.

First off make a fresh NAND backup just in case.

Options:

1) Use Decrypt9 to restore the 9.2 pre-A9LH backup with the force option.
2) Use a cart to update to 11.2 firm.

or

1) Download the sysDowngrader from https://github.com/Plailect/sysDowngrader and place "3ds" folder on root of SD card.
2) Download safeA9lhinstaller from here https://github.com/AuroraWright/SafeA9LHInstaller/releases and place "arm9loaderhax.bin" in SD:\luma\payloads renaming file to "x_safea9lhinstaller.bin".
3) Download a CIA update pack for 11.2 from that unknown ISO site and place cias on a folder called "updates" on root of SD card.
4) Press select on boot and turn on option "Patch SVC/service/archive/ARM9 access" from Luma config.
5) Boot into homebrew and select sysDowngrader.
6) Press Y to downgrade.
7) Reboot console once complete and verify you are on firm 11.2 and you can boot DS games (sometimes TWL can get prickly).
8) Shut down console.
9) Boot holding x to load safea9lhinstaller and press start to uninstall.

You really think so? I can buy RGH Xbox 360 legally all over Germany. We Germans may have an issue if a Flashcard is only suitable for one thing: playing pirated games.

 

[The Real Jdbye]

in decrypt9 there are 3 options to restore a SysNand backup, whats the difference with "keep a9lh" and without that notification?

i dont know what the buyer wants to do with the 3ds but he is willing to pay quiet high price for it and i dont want to ask if its because anything relatet to homebrew.

If he asked you the firmware version, there's a 99% chance he wants to hack it. Why not send him a PM and ask if he minds that it's hacked or wants you to remove the hack? Most likely he will just be happy that you saved him the work of installing A9LH himself.

Thats right but if someone would report to the police for selling hacked Consoles you could get Pwned

In Brazil, selling a hacked console/handheld's something good, it adds at least R$150 to the price.

"Good", because starting from PlayStation 4, consoles can't be hacked, so we have to buy games (People basically buy hacked consoles for piracy purposes) that cost R$100+. Each 3DS game costs R$150 at least. N3DS costs R$1500. And so on.

If he wants it on 11.2 he wants to install a9lh.
Why not just leave it on? If you try to uninstall it you have a small risk of bricking, and he has a small risk of bricking when installing it.
Why should it matter if it is illegal or not? I doubt you have people tapping your emails and phone calls waiting to hear a hint that you might be hacking something, and if you do, I'd get the hell out of such a country!
I doubt that it is something people generally get prosecuted for, otherwise you'd hear about it on the news. You're going to a lot of trouble for no reason.

 

[wii94]

just to clear things up, i dont know if he wants it for homebrew and he did not ask which firmware it has. This information came from my site, so we should stay on the topic please.

@el_gonz87 what exactly is the point of doing those steps with SysDowngrader?

 

[The Catboy]

If you are going to sell it, why bother keeping it on 11.2?

The steps on sysDowngrader are used to downgrade the system using CIA packs. Basically what this does is install all the CIAs for the firmware 1 by 1 to overwrite the entire FW currently on the system to be lower. This method was used in Plailects older guide to go from 10.7 to 9.2, but I can't link the 11.2 CIA pack since it is illegal to distribute those. I did hear that you can find some on that Chaos site.

If you give it to him using CTR NAND and Luma Kecleon patch, he'll have no benefits from a9lh, but if he wants to install it someday, which'll very unlikely, but possible, be impossible, he'll already have it.

What happens when Luma needs an update?

Didn't that only happened when updating to 11.3?

Also, Kecleon's don't get updated that often
