Sooo I was re-installing homebrew on my old 3ds and i saw that I could install it on 10.3, so I decided to do a system update from 9.2 to 10.7 thinking i could just downgrade to 10.3 from 10.7, but after trying to run browserhax, I saw that it didn't work past 1.6. I really need help and I don't have any game cartridges that can be used to install homebrew. I do have the e-shop version of Ocarina of Time 3D though if that works. Please help!

First of all, there is no advantage whatsoever to being on 10.3 instead of 9.2. If you get the ability to downgrade again, don't bother going to 10.3. Go back to 9.2, create an emunand, and update that to 10.7 instead. Don't update sysnand again unless you install and set up arm9loaderhax.

But to answer your current questions, the digital version of OoT won't work in your case. You would need to have some way of getting the modded save file into the game and since your 3DS is no longer modded, you can't use the oothax installer to do it. PowerSaves only works with the physical gamecart version of OoT so you can't use that method either. Your best bets are to get a physical version of OoT + a Datel PowerSaves device, or to get a copy of Cubic Ninja.

or maybe in the off-chance a friend has a cartridge with the broken save xD

or go with A9LH so that you can easily reflash just in case something like that happenes. It's good as clockwork mod for androids.

Right, that's the other option. If OP happens to know anyone else with a modded 3DS and an OoT cart, he can ask them to set up the 10.7 payload so he can get into the homebrew launcher. He would then be able to run the oothax installer and install the save into his digital OoT.

OOT3DSHAX does work, you need to check on some forum posts. Also there is a downgrader out there to downgrade from 10.7 to 9.2.

Do you have a New 3DS, smash bros., and a USB drive or standard SD card?

By the way, you don't need an Action Replay Powersaves Pro if you already own a 3DS/know someone with a 3DS at or below 10.5 firmware.
