P.S. I tried to run PastaCFW so I was able to run FBI there, but when I try to open PastaCFW I get a blackscreen

I'm having some trouble downgrading my Japanese N3DS from 10.3 to 9.2. I'm using this guide:
(More specifically, I'm using the text that accompanies the video underneath it.) I've done what I'm told to do up to the end of the instructions, and I've gotten successfully to this screen:

http://i1285.photobucket.com/albums/a582/Kinstrome/20160116_155922_zpsgvug94kl.jpg

Going with option (Y) leads me to this screen:

http://i1285.photobucket.com/albums/a582/Kinstrome/20160116_160059_zpst3un6q1o.jpg

...an almost completely black screen (save for a little "static" line at the bottom-left corner) that lasts forever, until I turn off the console.

Going with option (A) leads me to this screen:

http://i1285.photobucket.com/albums/a582/Kinstrome/20160116_155939_zpsrnvlpisu.jpg

I'm uncertain what's going on in that picture, but if that's what's causing the process to fail, I'd love some help from somebody more experienced. Thanks.

are you using the correct 9.2 files? make sure you are using the one for n3ds and not o3ds update.

I have a Old3ds on 10.3 and was curious what my options are for modding. I was thinking of getting a Flashcard so I didnt have to pack a bunch of carts around but if I can downgrade or go a different route that allows for home brew that'd be even better.

Edit: if any option would allow me to play Region Locked games I'd instantly take that option

No matter what I do, I can't get emunand9 to load while I'm using CTRbootmanager. It just loops me back to itself. I have to disable it by editing the payload to point to the actual homebrew launcher (bhbl.3dsx) to boot emunand9, then do what I need to do, then remove the microSD and edit the payload back to the way it was. Is there a solution to this?

N3DS 9.2(sys) + 9.5(emu) here.
GBA VC and DSiWare won't load from rxMode (whether sys or emuNAND).
They do load from Pasta CFW (sysNAND) and ReiNand (emuNAND).
Yes, installed to both 3DS profiles, GBA to SD, DSiWare to NAND.

Emunand9 as the homebrew? or one CFW? (which one?)
What's your config for menuhax? Do you have to press a certain key or to not press a certain key in order for *hax to load at startup?

N3DS XL
SYSNAND 9.0
EMUNAND 10.3

Can I play a Xenoblade 3D cartridge via Classic Mode? Will the update be ignored because the EMUNAND is at 10.3?
If it is possible, would it also have worked if the EMUNAND was <9.4 which is the update included on the cart? Does Classic Mode block or do anything to prevent cartridge updates?

Thanks

It's the homebrew one. I have menuhax set to type 2 with the button as "R". Whenever I try to load emunand9 from Homebrew Launcher, whether from sysnand menuhax (nands aren't linked) or with homebrew launcher CIA in emunand, it loops back to CTR boot manager even if I'm holding R.

N3DS with Reinand on EmuNAND 10.3 here.
I have a retail copy of Zelda TriForce Heroes, how would the easiest way to dump it be?

I think I am, since the guide I was using specifically mentioned the N3DS.

But just to try everything I exchanged my "updates" folder on the SD card for another "updates" derived from 9.2.0-20J(Full)_n3DS.zip, on https://mega.nz/#F!IApGwLJL!kYHL5jMlDfd0rmn6a8DaFw

This led to this error:

http://i1285.photobucket.com/albums/a582/Kinstrome/20160116_231750_zpsgfrjvld9.jpg

It's basically the same as before: a CIA file is missing and I don't know why it's missing or where to find it.

NOTE: I deleted the file 000400102002CA00.cia from the "updates" folder as per the brick-prevention guide located somewhere else on the site. But anyway, that isn't the file it said was missing.

So I managed to unlink my nands and able to install cia. My question now is how do I add dlc or patches to a game. And also what is the difference of big blue box and FBI?

reinand is very basic i dont know if it has gba support . . . but i can say the gba.cia games must be installed to sysnand (destination sd if using fbi)

So I managed to unlink my nands and able to install cia. My question now is how do I add dlc or patches to a game. And also what is the difference of big blue box and FBI?
install them as a .cia as well
and fbi (along with bigredmenu and nasa) is (are) completely open source and big blue box (bbm/devmenu/titlemanager/devmenu2x) are all mods of a official nintendo dev app

hi all, quick question here
i have an original 3ds (not sure of the firmware), was wondering if it was possible to install games from other regions without a flashcard?
possibly something involving custom firmware?
if someone could give me a few tips to get started, i'd appreciate it

cheers.
