Hacking A9LH brick poll

[retrofan_k]

I have done 10+ consoles on the older guides and 5 so far from the new guide. Tbh, I cannot see anyone getting bricked, especially on the new guide, unless you cannot follow written instructions at all or are completely paranoid.

No excuse at all to not do it, as it's far superior in many ways over the old menuhax days.

I voted "No, I succeed(ed)". But it should be "I succeeded 4 times on the older version of the guide". the new guide is even easier and safer.

I have done 1 o3dsxl and 1 2ds without a problem

@Aletron9000
I softbricked at first and had to CTRNAND Transfer again with downloaded image. Then it worked ... try the test payload .. it helped me to see im not totally bricked ...
you find it in the >Black screen on SysNAND boot after installing arm9loaderhax<

Can you please explain me how to use cubic ninja in 2.1 to boot

http://dukesrg.github.io/2xrsa.html?arm11.bin

Try this:

After step 12, go back to the new guide and go to:

I've installed to 6 3ds consoles, the latest being a n3ds from 11.0 using dsiware downgrade. No bricks. As long as you make sure to carefully read each step you should be fine. And the new process makes it even simpler and safer

Edit: For clarification, I did 3 o3ds on the old guide, 2 o3ds on the new guide, and a n3ds dsiware downgraded from 11.0 then hacked with the new guide. No issues, not even a softbrick.

1. 3 consoles succeed.
2. One brick. A NAND backup was bad generated. I restored it and it bricked.

the guide specifically mentions to check the nand dump sizes so you know if the dump is correct.

Ive done over 100 consoles now, ( hardmod ). Id say at least 25 of them were brick fixes. None of you have done enough to accurately say what can and cant cause a brick. It all comes down to the following.

1. Bad sd card.

2. Old software, not using latest checks ( sysupdater ).

3. Youtube tutorials.

4. 3ds hardware fault.

5. Murpheys law.

You can follow the tutorial 1000x you can still brick, why do i say this? Because I too have bricked on occasion. Shit happens.

Oh god please no. No god.

I read this tutorial thousand time. Its to confusing. I dont understand the plailect guide. Really sorry but this worst and confusing tutorial i ever saw. Before i bricked my new 3ds i tried to understand what was told there and it get me bricked.

Really guys. Plailect guides are so dammed confusing.

I had done it twice now and it was success , thanks god

No, seriously, Plailect tells you pretty much every single little thing you need to do. The only way he could make it easier is if he came over to your house and installed it personally.

There is nothing confusing about it, possibly a language barrier.

 

[SomeGamer]

Haven't tried the new guide, had 100% success on four consoles (two New, two old ones). And that was even before OTPhelper.

You asked for how to use Cubic Ninja on 2.1 and Plailect already have it covered (although on the old version of the guide)

How can you say that one thing doesn't work, only because you can't or don't try to understand/follow simple instructions.

The fórum is full with people that were able to install it. (my countdown is 1 N3DSXL and 4 2DS with 0 brick in the OLD guide)

So, maybe you should just skip this entirely and pay to someone to do it for you. Or not.
Your call...

Ok, so i took the chance, installed a9lh with the new guide, and success! a9lh is installed. However i cannot turn on the 3ds without the sd card in it, i heard that it was now possible to boot without an sd card, did i installed something wrong?

The version that can boot without the SD card is still experimental and won't be included with the guide until it's stable.

 

[Sumea]

I succeed. Always. I done about six A9LH installs, Two where I had to compile the installer against obtained OTP and files needed (so, very first "easy" iteration of Install) - done it for both N3DS (that being my own) and O3DS (That being my own at the time I did it)

I also did the Easy way before CTRtransfer magic few times for few friends, N3DS and O3DS systems alike. Bricked no systems. I kept joking to guys "oh no I bricked it"

I felt like an asshole when I booted the console without SD card in front of my friend and said "oh man it is bricked..." but then again I wanted him to feel like I felt when I installed my own A9LH for the first time I guess.

You are late to create this because A9LH came out a while back...WHILE BACK..

No, I had it installed, but due to some clumsy mistakes, I bricked it. I was a bit shaken up afterwards to reinstall a9lh, but I couldn't stand menuhax's yellow screen anymore. so I created this thread to see how many people succeeded with the new guide to see how safe it is.
