So I was thinking, if we can install an older version of the internet browser on 9.5 using cfw/emunand, will this transfer over to another system in a system transfer? That system would then have an older internet browser, and could run the gateway 3.0 to downgrade. Can anyone confirm if the 3DS file transfer would send the old browser from emunand (thinking that it's up to date)?

I don't think system transfer will transfer system apps. Only DSiware and games/programs installed to SD card. Even if it did, it's not going to install an older version of something over a new one. Nintendo's security is bad, but it isn't that bad. :P

What I was hoping, is that it would only check if both systems are on 9.5 as of this time, and do a complete nand transfer (maybe spoofing the old browser to seem like a newer one would help? (does that spoofing break the signature?)).

A system transfer never preforms a full NAND transfer at all. It only transfers games and content so no core system titles or anything like that gets carried over to the other 3DS.

Actually only a few files from NAND are transferred in the system transfer process (the ones related to SD encryption keys, and installed titles, and some other small things like friend code/NNID and such), the rest is kept as is.

I thought about it.
It would be legit to get a 9.5 decrypted firm0, xor your firm0 partition to get a xorpad, then inject a firm0 from a 9.2 system.
It should boot with your 9.5 sysnand, but still vulnerable at Gateway browser exploit, which you can use to downgrade, and ninjhax.
An hard mod is required though.

    Thanks for the like and then taking it away
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    It's been discontinued but you can find em second hand. It's the FiiO model K1.
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @SylverReZ nice. I've been using my BTR5 pretty much daily, got it in late 2020. Mostly use it as a desktop DAC though and the battery has already swelled up in it once, so I had to replace it. Some day I gotta grab a proper desktop DAC that doesn't have a battery lol

    @K3Nv3, Yeah, cheap and nasty earbuds don't deliver the best mids, they end up sounding really muddy.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Sicklyboy, I got mine around 2022 (iirc) and it was brand new, never opened, and for £15 too compared to paying nearly £30 elsewhere.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Sicklyboy, That sucks when the battery already begins to swell up. You considering on a desktop replacement, and if so, which one?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @SylverReZ damn 15 is shockingly cheap for that. Even 30 feels like a good price just given what a bunch of other FiiO stuff costs. Granted, not familiar with what those were originally selling for, so who knows lol

  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    As far as a replacement for my BTR5, I don't really have my eyes set on anything specific yet but it'll likely be from either Fiio or Schiit Audio.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Sicklyboy, Originally when it came out, they sold for around $40 USD according to FiiO's news bulletin. https://www.fiio.com/newsinfo/54677.html

    @Sicklyboy, I would prefer FiiO as the better brand for a USB DAC.

    I feel like headphones reached a peak even ones from ten years ago sound better than new ones
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @K3Nv3, all depends how much money you wanna spend. I had skullcandy headphones and shit way back when but I never liked anything as much as the headphones (and earbuds) I use nowadays

  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @SylverReZ yeah fwiw I've been quite happy with my FiiO BTR5 so I don't have any specific reason to not a FiiO again. Just gotta see what's available and how much I'm trying to spend lol

  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    I have the FiiO X1-ii, and love what it does, but the battery life is kinda ass and the sluggish, unresponsive menu makes me regret my purchase a little.
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    has anyone here played botw randomizer for switch?
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    (not the wii u version, specifically the switch version)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Frankly not. That's like a 'cheat engine' for BoTW, right?
