I just bought a n3DSxl fw Ver. 9.6.0-24U. What can i do as far as hacks go in order to install cia, custom firmware, custom gba virtual console, etc. without cubic ninja?

EDIT********
CAN I DO ALL OF THE ABOVE IF U UPDATE TO 9.9.0-24U SO I CAN PLAY POKEMON SUPER MYSTERY DUNGEON
You have to downgrade to 9.2, install an emunand, then update the emunand to play newer games.

Or, you can downgrade to 9.2 and follow the guides to install a9lh. Both options will give you what you want.

Hello, someone please help me. I am trying to figure out the smashbroshax. Using the helper thingy from herehttps://gbatemp.net/threads/tutorial-using-smashhax-with-linux.397194/ My SSB version is 1.0.1 , but there are only listed versions 1.0.0 and 1.0.2(and up). When I try to use the broadcasting it only crashes and does nothing else. Could someone please help me with this, or give me some advice..
I already tried searching google for manual update for SSB but found nothing. Also tried both the payload.bin files on 3ds card root and they did the same thing.
Are there any update files for SSB3ds stock 1.0.1 EU cartridge? Or am I boned for life because there is literally no way to make the exploitable game work?

Yes, I am very new to all this...

Okay, stupid question here, but could someone please explain the process for installing GBA VC .CIAs so they work on emuNAND? From start to finish, assume I've not done a single bit of work toward it yet.

What I have actually tried so far...
Okay, I have a patched AGB_FIRM in .CIA format. I put it on my microSD, booted *hax, ran minipasta to apply patches to sysNAND, let the console cycle back so I could then boot FBI. In FBI I installed the patched AGB_FIRM and then my desired .CIA format game. I then rebooted the console and started up my emuNAND. I used BigBlueMenu to install the game there. The game shows up, but every time I boot the game, I get a black screen and then an error message saying to hold down the power button to turn the console off.

Terribly sorry of this has been answered before, I haven't seen the answer on the pages I've read, but I am currently using a N3DS with a sysNAND of 9.2 and redNAND of 10.7 (with HBL already working on sysNAND of course), I have no intention of getting arm9 or any other further hack of my system, I'm able to go into 10.7 via CakesFW so i'm wondering, lets say if 10.8, 10.9, 11.0, ... 12.0 and so on is released in the future, would I be able to just go into CakesFW and launch 10.7, and keep updating to whatever is the new firmware? Would it still work forever no matter what firmware comes out or is it that the current CakesFW is only compatible with some official nintendo firmwares?

Oh goodness if you don't mind my asking, what did you do when they returned your device and said they broke it? That sounds absolutely awful. I mean, did they make you sign a waiver that excuses them from any damage they may do to the device? I would be pissed if I paid for a repair service and all they did was break it. Talk about unprofessional.

Replacing a circle pad is extremely easy how on earth did he mess that up?

They gave me a phone call.
I don't get my device back yet. It's in an dismantled state.
I have pay them a visited and we arranged a deal.
The total cost should be around 80€ inclusive their mess.
They gave me a second hand (but in very top condition) replacement unit that I can keep when I got my original 3DS back. The unit came with firmware 4.4 E.

I start 3DS hacking since 9.2. What kind of thing can I do with an old 4.4 3DS (besides Gateway MSET-exploit)? Browserhax/menuhax won't work on 4.4.


When I played my original Pokémon Alpha Sapphire on it, my save file became corrupted. As soon I saw the message I turned it of. I already read that it has something to do with 9.2 encryption. If I play it again on my 9.2 unit, will I be able to start from my last point, or do I have to start over?

I also wonder if there is a batch action save extractor/installer?
When I got my original 3DS back,I plan to take a back-up of every title's save data.

Also I miss my 9.2 spider browser (for AR codes). Will the 9.2 (timewrap) browser work on a 4.4 unit?
Or does this browser needs 9.2?(kind of franken firmware. firmware 4.4 with 9.2 browser)

You could update to 9.2 via SysUpdater and Pasta/Mini Pasta or rxTools' Devmode/Pasta Mode.

Immensely excited! Just got my hands on a N3DS Pokemon 20th Anniversary system! Although, its on version 10.7.0. Any specification I would need to be aware of before proceeding a downgrade from this version?

Just that you need Cubic Ninja, Ocarina of Time or Smash Bros. to downgrade it (or a Sky3DS with one of the aforementioned games installed on it) if you didn't already know. Other than that, it should be the same.

In regards to EmuNANDs, can I, literally, copy one EmuNAND from one modded 3DS to another and expect it to work just fine?
So let's say I have two SD cards both of them have been partition. From one SD I install the previous EmuNAND and it's files (folder with letters and numbers) over to the new SD card that will be used on another 3DS.
Will this work?

Unfortunately, emuNANDs are console specific. The best thing to do is a system transfer from one 3DS's emuNAND to the other.

If I have a SSB 1.0.1 EU cart then how should i proceed? (My previous post does not appear to get any attention sadly..)
