Homebrew 3DS Homebrew stuck at installing

[BozzMode]

I'm sitting here for more than four hours, and nothing is working. I'm done.

Anyway, I've tried to install homebrew on my old 3DS XL (ver. 11.9, Europe). I've followed the guide of a guy on YouTube named Jack Sorrell.
Everything worked fine: i could launch homebrew via Steel Divers (it is ver. 1.0), and it opens every time. Then, I click on that "install steelhax" thing. After pressing A a couple times it says "steelhax was successfully installed. Press A to continue".

But the thing is, after pressing A to continue, nothing happens! Am I simply dumb and this is normal!? The Start-Key works thoo, it leads me back to the home screen. If I boot homebrew via Steel Divers once more, nothing is changed; it just shows again the installer, which again says it has finished installing, and gets stuck.

What could be the problem?

Why do you launch the Steelhax Installer when you have Steelhax already installed?

The vast majority of people on this site myself included recommend that you never use a YouTube guide. They are very offen out of date or have missleading or missing steps. There are also a good few youtube guides that people have made deliberately to brick your 3ds.

The site recommends you use this guide here

What do you mean by "already installed"? Do I simply have to copy the files on the SD-Card and it's done?

I'm new btw, if you didn't notice yet


And yes, I already knew that it's not recommended to watch any guides on YouTube. But since the feedback on that video seemed to be really good at more than 300k viewes, I thought I'd give it a try.

Ok guys, it was working all the time, I'm just retarded

By the way, it's not because there's a lot of views on a video that the video is good... It's because people are attracted to it.

Don't feel bad. 300,000 other people are too.
