    Hacking Where to get a firmware 4.5 or below 3DS XL?

    Googled, searched this thread, and checked the wiki, but I can't find an answer to this. Any chance the NA 3DS XL Black/Black has 4.5 or lower? It's sitting in my shopping cart on amazon and I have a $50 off my next purchase from amazon coupon code + free 2 day shipping (prime). The code expires...

    Hacking Solving Acekard contact issues

    This worked perfectly for me. What I did specifically is I layered 3 peices of paper behind the connectors like you show and left like 1mm sticking out if I ever need to pull them out, no more freezes or start-up issues!

    Hacking NOOB PARADISE - ask away
