karl3DS will be all people need to swap regions, still doesn't avoid the OOT or CN requirement though
yeah but unrelated to region changing, it would still be nice.

Happens regardless of whether or not a cart is inserted, I'm afraid. I've also done a system format already.Do you have any cartridges inserted when you open/close it? When I did a swap on my OG3DS that would cause issues until I ran a system format.
EDIT: I noticed you used a SecureInfo from an original 3DS, could that be causing any issues?
Okay, so I need some help:
I managed to get the Xorpad of my EUR New 3DS's NAND. The software I used to do this isn't really mine to share, but the Xorpad it generated is legit.
I am now trying to do an EUR -> USA region change. I eventually want to change SysNand's region, but I decided to try in EmuNand first, to make sure everything works properly. It's a good thing I did, as I seem to have bricked EmuNand.
I'm not sure what I did wrong, so could anyone help me? Thanks a lot! Here's what I did:
1) Formated EmuNand and installed DevMenu
2) Installed this list of USA CIAs acquired from UpdateCDN.
3) Opened system settings, selected format system memory, and waited for the system to reboot
4) Turned off system, put SD card into computer, and used emuNandTool to extract EmuNand from SD card.
5) Used 3DSFAT16Tool to extract EmuNAND's fat16 partition (3DSFat16tool.py -d -n3ds emu.bin emu.iso n3ds.xorpad)
6) Mounted the fat16 partition, and swapped the existing SecureInfo_A file with one taken from a USA Old 3DS.
7) Used compareTitlesCSV to generate of this list of EUR titles that were no longer needed.
8) Deleted above list of titles from the "title" folder of the fat16 partiton NAND.
9) Injected fat16 partition back into my emunand dump via 3DSFAT16Tools (same command, but w/ -i instead of -d).
10) Used emunandtool to write my modified emuNand image back to my SD card.
12) Inserted SD card back into 3DS, and attempted to boot into emuNAND...
...the result, as I've already said, was a black screen, even after multiple tries.
I hope I didn't give too much detail—I just wanted to make sure that my process is replicable. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Thanks a ton!
Assuming I'm able to get past this hurdle, I will continue to document everything I do.
Edit: In PM's someone suggested that I try without deleting the duplicate titles (ie, skip steps 7-8). This was intended to remove duplicate copies of apps (two copies of system settings, two copies of health and safety, etc.), but is not strictly necessary.
It worked! It's extremely unstable (it froze after a minute), but it does work!
Edit2: So the 3DS seems to freeze about second after I either exit sleep mode or suspend an application. What could cause that?
Edit3: for whatever it's worth:
Embarrassed to say I don't know what this means.If you chose to install 9.2.0-20U system files, did you make sure the rest of your system (like NATIVE_FIRM) corresponds to the same system version?
nice you got it working, although i'm not sure why there are problems. a shame about the xorpad generation is private, but let us hope something is public soon!
OOOOOkay, so who else wants to try this?
Thanks to Archshift (yay!), there's finally a public way to generate Xorpads on the New 3DS. Run thiswith Cubic Ninja.
My New 3DS is away being NAND-modded atm, but it would be great if some other people could experiment with this.
Gonna try this tomorrow with my sky3DS. Is very unusable or it works fine?OOOOOkay, so who else wants to try this?

Compile https://github.com/archshift/Decrypt9/tree/bootstrap, then compile the arm9 branch of bootstrap with the resulting bin file.although a shame we need cn, it would ne nice to use it via OoT thanks for the info though
and, where did you find the file?
Gonna try this tomorrow with my sky3DS. Is very unusable or it works fine?
Compile https://github.com/archshift/Decrypt9/tree/bootstrap, and use the resulting bin file alongside the arm9 branch of bootstrap, which now supports the New 3DS.
ha ok, there goes my rxtools message then... thanks thoughIt's a bootstrap-specific branch.
The person who PM'd me said:Ok I got the original one to work by installing a theme with CHMM then opening decrypt9
My suggestion would be, instead of installing US titles via DevMenu, use this to download them as if it were a system update. Yifan_lu said this method worked for him.
