Hello people of GBATemp
I bought the Old 3DS on ebay with the firmware of 7.2.0-17E, and i bought a Gateway flash cart, and I've tried to hack it, but end up with an error saying

"An error has occured.
Press and hold the POWER Button
to turn the system off.
Please refer to the Operations
Manual for details."

can someone please give me a tutorial on how to do it so that I can play Pokemon and hack it for fun.
Thanks!

Find a game to update to anywhere around 9.0.0 or 11.3.0 and return it so you can use the homebrew launcher method.

I dont believe that would work seeing at that would be a cart update and wouldnt touch the sound player to allow the correct version to be exploitable.

You're supposed to go to the "Installing boot9strap (browser)" link since your firmware is 7.0-8.1.

Find a game to update to anywhere around 9.0.0 or 11.3.0 and return it so you can use the homebrew launcher method.

If you wanted them to use Soundhax, that method won't work as cart update breaks Soundhax, as mentioned in the link you provided. :/
