    Hacking Not sure if Frankenfirmwared or not.

    This same issue happened to me on a n3ds XL I bought a few days ago (going from 9.6 to 9.2). I got an error halfway through updating CIA's and got frankenware'd. I inserted my Fire Emblem: Conquest cartridge to force my 3ds to update to 10.3. Once updated, I used SafeSysUpdater to go back to...

    Homebrew [WIP] SafeSysUpdater

    I got frankenware myself when downgrading from 9.6 to 9.2. I upgraded to 10.3 by putting in my Fire Emblem Fates: Conquest cartridge - which prompts for you to update to 10.3 in order to launch the game. Once updated, I performed the downgrade again using SafeSysUpdater and it worked on the...

    Homebrew [WIP] SafeSysUpdater

    Based on the post from a couple of pages back, it CAN work - but probably better to be on 10.3.

    Tutorial Simple Guide to Downgrading your 3DS

    Wow - SafeSysUpdater worked on the first try! This needs to be added to the OP! :P At the end of the upgrade, it did say "Trying to reboot in 10 sec... PowerOff your device if it doesn't... Trying to reboot...". I ended up manually turning it off as suggested, removing my SD card, booting up...

    Tutorial Simple Guide to Downgrading your 3DS

    Grats man! Yep - definitely on 10.3 and using menuhax (installed using ninjhax) as entry point. Did you use the version posted here? http://gbatemp.net/threads/wip-safesysupdater.409392/

    Tutorial Simple Guide to Downgrading your 3DS

    SysUpdater opens (like 20% of the time) and when it does, it either accepts no input (pressing Y to downgrade does nothing) or I get that wonderful "Failed to get CIA" error that I've seen posted by several others. I'm at work now, but I've been reading people having success formatting their...

    Tutorial Simple Guide to Downgrading your 3DS

    I used sysupdater (the one in the OP). Funny enough, it worked on my first try. I had to upgrade back to 10.3 as I only had a partial update and I've spent well >8 hours trying to downgrade again to 9.2. Big headache. :(

    Tutorial Simple Guide to Downgrading your 3DS

    I tried several of my cartridges (Bravely Default, Link Between Worlds, Fire Emblem: Awakening) and the only one that forced me to update was Fire Emblem: Conquest. I was on 9.2.0-20U, but I had a frankenfirmware unfortunately. I just updated safely to 10.3.0-20U by only using Conquest. Going to...

    Tutorial Simple Guide to Downgrading your 3DS

    I just performed the downgrade from 9.6.0-24U -> 9.2.0-20U using the same zip you're referencing (successfully). The MD5 posted for this file on that site differs from OP's listing. Mine was also listed as: E6339468A1E82B1D50E9222F017C0477 Which is correct based on where I downloaded it.

    Hacking ninjhax 2.5 red screen problem

    Correct. I am copying all required files onto the SD card, and then putting that SD card into my Sky3DS+.
