Just did the turning off Wi-Fi thing. Nothing new...
Turn it off and then turn it on after that you should start run.bat. If it doesnt work try it again and hopefully your 3ds will not freeze. I tried it several times and turned wifi off after the 3ds booted

I was on 4.4, left wifi off until I had booted into the cfw(worked first time), then I turned wifi and started ctrclient which ran, connected to the 3ds, and installed the cia without any problems.

I was even using wine on linux. But I also had manually set my ip address, dns, gateway, and subnet.

Maybe it's like piratesephiroth said V
Maybe it's some specific wifi setting? Even after I deleted the other 2 wifi connections it still won't work.

Lets compare:
  1. WPA2-PSK AES encryption
  2. Manually set up ip and dns (tested and valid)
  3. Using connection 2 (connection 1 was taken)
Are sysnand and the emunand wifi settings different?

Same as me,(though I was using conn 1...)

If you set the internet settings before you dumped your nand then they are the same.

I was changing the settings earlier when I didn't hold 'L' for the CFW and now I think I have sysnand and emunand on different ip's. I'll try making them the same

Nah, still nothin'. I'm gonna give up again and return to Gateway mode. Not much for me to gain here as of yet, anyway.

Starting the browser crashes the cfw in server mode

Sorry for not being helpfull but that was my solution, obviously i tried several times (20), the first time it worked but devmenu wasnt showing on my 3ds so i updated, downloaded a demo, returned to 4.5 after that my 3ds was freezing a lot after turning off wifi but after several times it worked :)

9. Copy the CFW files in the 'SD Card' folder to the root of the SD card. Delete Launcher.dat and rename GW_Launcher.dat to Launcher.dat

There is no GW_Launcher.dat on the SD, that is on the micro sd. What i do here. (I get stuck here in the second tutorial)

(I get stuck here in the first tutorial)

And i do the main tutorial, but when i install the devmenu first says to uptade the console, i put cancel, then the program like msdos say that install something i restart,
the 3ds but not gift on the screen appears. I try to install the devmenu again but the msdos said something like "thearpp 1101" and then said "Pause" and nothing.

There's a GW_Launcher.dat in the 'SD card' folder of Palentine's latest CFW upload.

Hey guys it doesn't look like you have to completely reboot to get it to show up just hold the power button until the power off screen appears then press the home button to go back.

Besides that, has anyone got any of the other developer programs to work? I notice the included copy of DevMenu installs to SDMC while the official ones install to CTR NAND. Also I can't even get most of the SDMC tools to work, they just give errors.

I tried to install the play coin setter, but it wouldn't let me import it...

to install the .cia to crt nand replace the 1 in run.bat to 0.

you can delete the old one (if your reinstalling) on the sd trough System Settings > Data Management > Nintendo 3ds > Software like any other demo/app
