Added v2 Update:

• Added 3DS Transfer Tool Remover
• .....that's it.

 

[Patxinco]

Why you need/want to remove the 3ds transfer tool?

 

[dpad_5678]

Why you need/want to remove the 3ds transfer tool?

Because a lot of people installed it and no longer want it. Remember, it's not removable via Data Management. It's basically an installable System Application.

@dpad_5678 The downgrader doesn't work when I use it from disk drive D:/. First I typed my NAND letter in uppercase, then when I tested the NAND in NO$GBA it threw up an error code 1-2435-8325. I tried typing my letter in lowercase, then it started printing system files and plugins for whatever reason. All I know is that it deleted the titles that it was supposed to downgrade and copied Frodo files from the C:/ root to their directories.

I'm confused as to where to start...

My DSi is empty since I did the system transfer from it to my 3DS years ago, but I have the browser and Flipnote, and it's on 1.4.5 firmware. I have a 1GB SD card in it, but can go bigger if needed. Hardmod is not an option for me, and I don't get my R4i 3DS Gold cart until tomorrow. So where do I go from here?

Your best chance is using flipnotehax/ugopwn with the Flipnote app that you already have.

I get that, but I don't know anything about it, where to download the files I need for it, or if there's a tutorial somewhere to set that up. the OP's tutorial steps are half-assed and vague at best, and assumes we just *know* this stuff. So any help is appreciated.

The leak exists, but there is a high chance of brick if you use it. The best way is to just wait for the official release of Flipnotehax and not use the ugopwn leak. I blame the P guy on that one.

 

[Jayro]

Okay, I'll wait. Thank you. I don't want to brick my only DSi in the house. They still go for around $60 used at gamestop, so I rather not brick.

Do you mean you are running the downgrader from a drive other than C:/ ? Switching to the C drive ( the C: command ) is hardcoded into the program.

I've used ugopwn on 30+ consoles without bricking. It's perfectly safe, just propaganda from the dev's who were angry about the leak (which I can understand). Ugopwn is just the entrypoint. Restoring a broken NAND can brick, but that's not ugopwn doing the bricking. Always test your NAND in No$Cash before restoring it to real hardware, and you'll be fine. I've done 100+ NAND restores between 30+ consoles without issues.

Alright, I ran the downgrader from C:/, and it worked perfectly.

Nice to know. Thank you for your feedback. I'll add a note to OP.

There's no chance of bricking using the exploit. The only chance of brick is user error modifying the nand backup. Such as: Using an old build of TWLTool which doesn't work properly, failing to modify files on the nand properly, using files that aren't the proper files, (edit) also flashing decrypted nand, the list probably goes on.

Exactly. In almost any case, the entrypoint is never the cause of a brick.
