Now that I have 9.2 on my 3DS what do I do now? While there are plenty of guides on installing different things I'm not sure what to install or do from this point. Can anyone tell me some useful things to install and what they do?
A good place to start would be rxTools.

The only other thing I can suggest is SaveDataFiler if you want to make save backups.

hi! so.. i used to follow the 3ds scene a year ago, i used to put pasta cfw on my 3ds xl(old) using cubic ninja, unfortunally i've used my sd for other stuff.. now i want to update all the system with cfw and stuff, where do i start? sorry for my bad english
Check out this rxTools tutorial.

I am following this guide: https://gbatemp.net/threads/rxtools...rom-browserhax-homemenuhax-to-rxtools.398420/

And I did everything fine up to Step 4 of the CFW- RXTOOLS section.

It is telling me to download rxtools and then put it onto my sd, but wont that replace my existing rxtools folder?

It is also telling me to download another release for o3DS, my device, another rxtools folder.

It is then telling me to find firmware.bin on the internet, but I remember generating one with my rxtools tools.

I am very confused. What do I do?

Hoping someone can point me in the right direction for doing a system transfer, or anything that does the same thing, between two systems that aren't on latest update.

Specifically, I've got a 9.2 3DS with 10.3 emunand through RXTools (linked nands). I want to migrate to a 10.2 N3DS that hasn't been turned on yet. My entry points include Ninjhax, Oothax, smashax, and browser.

That's an old guide, it hasn't been updated. Use this instead: https://gbatemp.net/threads/tutorial-installing-rxtools-custom-firmware-3ds-and-2ds.390867/

You can't do a system transfer unless your systems are updated :/ When doing a system transfer, it connects to the internet and checks your firmware I believe :c

I have my rxTools installed all fine, and I have an emuNAND working, updated, and playing games and such :/ I just want my system to coldboot to rxTools when I want it to.
If you want to coldboot, get menuhax setup. Rename the rxTools.3dsx file to boot.3dsx(put it in the root of your SD) and move your exisiting boot.3dsx somewhere else. From now on, instead of homebrew it'll directly go into rxTools :)

It does not go into homebrew right now. It just goes to sysNAND, where then I need to go to the browser, then 3ds.reboot, then rxtools, then boot into emuNAND.

How do I get menuhax setup? :o

Open HBL through browserhax. Then select menuhax manager. Then install. Then go to haxx trigger configuration(or something of the sort. It will be an option below install in menuhax manager) Select type 2, press L(or whatever button you want) and touch the lower screen. Now menuhax will automatically load into HBL(or whatever boot.3dsx is), unless you press L when the system turns on :)

I think I may have messed up my HBL. When I try to enter HBL via browser hax, after I click the end of the slider while holding A (i have an o3DS), it boots me into rxTools, but I can't do anything, then after about 30 seconds it shoves me into my emuNAND without me doing anything :s.

How can I fix my HBL?

Okay, so I got it to the point where it coldboots into HBL by redoing whats in the guide :/ How do I change this to rxtools?
So now you turn on the 3ds(press a button), and it's in HBL? If so, then in your rxTools download, there's a folder called ninjhax. Find the rxTools.3dsx in that and copy paste that to the root of your SD. Now move the boot.3dsx from your SD to somewhere else, and rename rxTools.3dsx to boot.3dsx. Now when menuhax loads boot.3dsx, it will directly boot into rxTools

Hrm alright, I did that and yes it does boot into rxTools on boot, but it again just shows the splash then kicks me into emuNAND. Then, if I go to system settings and leave system settings, it reboots again but this time it does not boot into rxTools. Very weird.

If you want to enter the rxTools menu, then you have to hold L before the splash appears.

I have an emunand backup that I want to transfer over to a new fresh SD card, I am using RXTools, how do I do that?
Use emuNAND tool to extract the emuNAND.bin(if you want do it again) from your old SD. Now on the new SD create a fresh emuNAND, unlink the NANDs, and the emuNAND tool again to injec t emuNAND into the new SD card. Now copy all the stuff from your old SD into your new one :)

L boots me into sysNAND. :( Do you mean R? Since thats what I held to go to the menu when I was running it from browser.
I guess you're not on the latest nightly xD R, then

Er is there a way to do it without needing to unlink nands? I hate having to reset up menuhax and all that jazz.

Yeah, though booting isnt very reliable :/ Sometimes it boots to emuNAND, more often than not it sticks here: http://imgur.com/bewEkCZ
