Hacking 3DS NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

If you did all the guide and have A9LH then yes, you can update from system settings.

I think I did everything but to be sure, if I dont, could I install homebrew again or the newer updates patched this exploits and its undoble?

Section V - Injecting FBI
If you restored an EmuNAND or RedNAND that already contains FBI as part of the last section, you can skip this section.

1. Open Hourglass9 from arm9loaderhax by holding (Start) on boot
2. Go to "SysNAND Backup/Restore", then select the "Health&Safety Dump" option to dump Health & Safety to hs.app (you can use Up and Down / Left and Right to change the name)
3. Press (Select) to eject your SD card, then put it in your computer
4. Extract Universal Inject Generator, then copy both hs.app from your SD card and FBI.ciafrom the FBI zip to the input folder

need more help with this where do i find hs.app and the rest

When you follow the steps you quoted, hs.app will appear in the files9 folder.

Yes.

Edit: Make sure you have boot.3dsx on the root of your SD card.

Sure, why wouldn't you be able to? I would say if you don't have your 9.2 backup still, to make one before you update, just in case you want to revert back for whatever odd and strange reason. Other than that, if you already have A9LH then go ahead. Just make sure to tick the options in Luma3DS for updated sysnand.

If you downgraded already, and have Decrypt9 via homebrew, then you can move on to part 2.

With Luma 3ds + A9LH can I boot older DS flash carts like original R4?

 

[nanashi723]

im currently in progress of downgrading, the guide says for the Decrypt9WIP, i ONLY need to copy the Decrypt9WIP folder into the 3ds folder on my sd card from the zip file, do i just ignore the other files in the zip file? such as scripts and luancher.dat and so on

You can do a 9.2 CTR transfer if your backup won't work (there should be a link for what to do if your SD card didn't have enough space for the NAND backup).

Yes, the other files are just for alternate ways to launch it in different firmwares.

Yep look up ApacheThunder's TWL launcher.

Tell us exactly what you're doing otherwise we can't give you any advice.

ive encounter this error during my downgrade, what do i do now?

Turn it on. Does it stay in a black screen, or does it show blue screen with text?

Restart your console and see if any arm9 exploits work (eg try to run Decrypt9 from homebrew). If they flash red then go back to the homebrew launcher, then you have an incomplete downgrade. In this case just run the downgrade again and it should finish off anything it's missing.

 

[nanashi723]

when i reboot, i think it just stays in a black screen. waited for a minute. however, i can put it in sleep mode and turn it off normally

i cant access homebrew launcher either

i think its a soft brick, am i screwed and have to force to update to 11.0?

What region is your 3DS and did you use the correct downgrade pack? If you used old 3ds files or files from a different region you might be bricked.
EDIT: did you try powering on with the SD card out?
