    Hacking Godmode9 restore warning: "NCSD Differs between image and local"

    That's what's so daunting about the whole process. I found only 2 different cases that (superficially) mirrored mine, including errors, behavior, and screen text. Yet both of them had different solutions, and neither of those solutions worked for me. Obviously there are hundreds of bricked...

    Hacking Godmode9 restore warning: "NCSD Differs between image and local"

    Earlier I used Godmode9 and flashed the SysNAND I created before the 2.1.0 downgrade. It completed with no errors. The system booted for the first time since June, over 2 years ago. I'm still surprised that I had kept all the files and backups from that old guide in perfect order, and notes to...

    Hacking Godmode9 restore warning: "NCSD Differs between image and local"

    My n3ds is USA, so I didn't use EUR. system info: auto Yes, I have all the backups from that guide, and SDCard contents from each part as well. I just want to confirm that Godmode9 should be used to restore the nand backup?

    The downgrade to 2.1.0 was Part #4, Section #2, Step #10. Part #5 was the installation of arm9loaderhax.

    Hacking Godmode9 restore warning: "NCSD Differs between image and local"

    I completed all of the steps up to the CTRTransfer with Decrypt9WIP (step #10). After running the transfer I get this error:

    Hacking Godmode9 restore warning: "NCSD Differs between image and local"

    Thank you for the explanation, I understand much better now. I will follow your advice and report back the outcome. EDIT: Does this mean that my SysNAND backups created under arm9loaderhax were essentially rendered useless by using NTRBOOT? EDIT #2: I successfully completed CTRTransfer &...

    Hacking Godmode9 restore warning: "NCSD Differs between image and local"

    2 years ago I bricked my N3DSXL when my device entered sleep mode while I was on step 5 of Plailect's guide. After trying everything I could find, and pissing people off with my questions, I put it away. I recently got an NTRBOOT flashcart, and I am now able to run godmode9. I have all of my...

    Hacking 3DS NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    Maybe this will help reveal the problem: Focusing on Part 5 of the guide: Section IV - Copying RedNAND data to SysNAND I considered that maybe the RedNAND to SysNAND operation failed in some way, leaving the sysnand corrupted... or that maybe the RedNAND backup was already corrupted. I decided...

    Hacking 3DS NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    Yes, I've already done this. On Step#4, the payload test indicates A9LH is working, which we know since Luma cfw menu, H9, Uncart, & EmuNAND9 are booting. I also deleted the luma cfg, and reset with a new one. I replaced the firmware.bin just to be sure. None of it made a difference. Edit: I...

    Hacking 3DS NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    A9lh - Unable to boot into CFW SysNAND - What should I do? I began this with 9.2 on both SysNAND & RedNAND, N3DS-U. I completed the Plailect guide. As I completed each step of the way, I'd check that to see if everything was behaving as described in the guide. At the very end of the guide (PART...
