Hacking Cannot load browser without upgrading firmware (GW mode failed)

[gotchamm]

hi there, right now I got a problem:

Everything went well the day before yesterday (I can load browser, get into GW mode and so on)
BUT, TODAY WHEN I SWITCH ON MY 3DS LL, I CANNOT LOAD BROWSER, IT KEEP SAYING THAT: if you want to use the browser you must upgrade your 3DS via internet.
And so I just have no way to go into GW mode...can someone help plz?

What I have tried:
1, format the system, same issue (this picture just appears when I try to open the browser);
2, take off the battery, wait for a while and open up, same issue;
3, hold L+R+A+up button and switch on, choose not to upgrade and same issue.

My 3DS LL is 9.1.0 version(official).

i want to help you but i'm clueless when it comes to this exploit since i'm a N3DS owner but did you try the exploit offline mode via android device or does that too require the browser to be connected online ? sorry if i'm not making sense

Never encounter this problem before.

Unless someone can make a GW loader with Cubic Ninja, I think you're SoL. IIRC you can only update/install the internet browser and online components by doing an online update. If you got a nand backup, you could try getting your LL modded and flash that back.

well, I tried that offline approach (android app) but still same issue: u must upgrade via internet before connecting to the local address.
thanks anyway.

Saw your post at baidu....
Never encounter this problem before and I am using 4.X GW exploit.

yep, maybe I can get a solution here..

I keep a nand backup, yes I can do a flash work by soldering that pin and blah blah.. But still I want to know any other solutions before that final approach.
Thanks.

what i don't understand is why it's doing this on your 3ds all of sudden or is it a required browser update for all 3ds users ?

This is truly weird coz everything went on well just the day before yesterday.
Yes, all of a sudden.
It is not a required browser update for all users, since others are still having fun with their GW. And some friends kindly helped check this for me, they didn't get the issue here.

very strange indeed

did you clear browser history/cache ?

 

[gotchamm]

I cannot clear the browser

I cannot clear the browser history/cache when I cannot open it..
And formatting can do the job. But after so many times of formatting, same issue.
Thanks.

good move & good luck

I'm pretty sure gateway team will reply you SOON™, if not ignore you by the fact that site clearly states "Technical/support question will be IGNORED" .
Your best bet would be to do a nand recovery, saving you lots of time.

Hmm this issue scares me. I'm planning to buy a N3ds the the very moment that gateway...aka SOON™(lol) launches the update. But perhaps this is the issue they are faced with now why they maybe takeing so long...idk.

This issue is only for some N3DS. It's when the additionals components weren't installed. Also, a game update don't fix this :/

 

[KidIce]

A system format would require agreeing to the EULA again, right? Are you sure that's not what it's asking you to do?

Just grasping at straws here, not trying to be an ass... Which is rare for me, so be sure to mark it on your calenders.

Hi is it the same with a game update to update to 9.2 ?

 

[LebaD1]

When configuring the wifi parameters did you try the "Connection test" ?
Do you have the youtube app installed?
