Got a R4i-B9S from max-console.com yesterday and tested it out. At the beginning my Old 3DS is on firmware v11.6.0-39U, and finally I managed to use R4i-B9S flashcart to hack the console and install 3DS CIA games. Take a look at the following pictures: I installed a US region 3DS CIA as well as a Japan region CIA.
A few things to keep in mind:

Just got the B9S updater from the r4i-sdhc factory and have successfully switched the R4i-B9S card to R4i-SDHC NDS flashcart.
Here are the steps:
1. Copy r4i-sdhc.firm to SD:Luma\payloads
2. Copy r4i-sdhc.bin to SD:nrtboot, create “ntrboot” directory if not exist.
3. Press “START+POWER” button to run r4i-sdhc.firm.
Note: this can only be used for flashing R4i-B9S card and cannot be used for other cards.

A few things to keep in mind:
- Please make sure the first SD card is the original one of your 3DS console, otherwise it will show errors when installing B9S.
- At step 5, please remove the magnet first and then hold power button to power off, otherwise the 3DS console can’t be powered off.
- At step 12, When it shows “copy successful”, first click A and then click B to return to B9S menu. Only at B9S menu can you press Start button and reboot the system.
- Make sure the targeted SD card(for installing games) is authentic TF card, and with enough capacity, otherwise the convert and installation of CIA games may fail
