Hacking DSiWare Downgrade with almost ANY DSiWare Game!

[hacksn5s4]

if on 11.2 buy a cheap 2ds with old firmware on it then buy a dsiware game that works with the inject then then tranfer it to your other 3ds with a hacked save then remove cfw from the 2ds and return it to the store

Yup can verify that the Japanese dsi hax works. :-)

If I region change my o3ds to JPN and then back to US. Will I be able to play extended memory games like Smash bros/pokemon sun/moon/etc.. Can someone confirm?

This is stated in the guide: https://3ds.guide/region-changing
"Region changing using ctrtransfer (which this method uses) seems to cause reboot patches to break. The cause for this is unknown, but for now Old 3DS users will be unable to play extended memory mode games (such as Monster Hunter, Super Smash Bros, and Pokémon Sun / Moon)."

my o3ds is JPN and I made 2 region change emunand one for USA one for EUR

I changed my region to JPN but all my AL9H stuff (Cias, FBI, etc...) How do I change back to my original region? (I have a backup NANDmin.bin and a bin.sha)

you should backup your Nintendo 3DS folder
then use setting formatting the device
after that everthing will work fine
then use interent update to 11.2 after that inject fbi

I've done all of that but how do I inject fbi? I'm really sorry for these noob questions...
Ohh, enter any hax.... AHHHH I get it.

 

[srwgin]

check Section V - Injecting FBI
https://3ds.guide/installing-arm9loaderhax
you need install luma first
also you need Hourglass9 and fbi-2.4.2-injectable.zip

I got all my stuff back and now this error code keeps popping up: 005-5602. I looked it up and it says that my region is incorrect. I've followed the guide and I still can't get it to work. Any ideas as to why?

Btw, I've figured out the JPN 4swords offsets so we can port it now.
Below are the only changes necessary. Honestly, I would just compile it enough to get all.dat and paste it to 0x1400 in the public EU or US public.sav files. That's what I did. It's kind of a pain to compile fully on windows.

https://github.com/yellows8/dsi/blob/master/exploits/4swordshax/4swordshax.s
#define HEAPCTX_ADR 0x2177170
#define TARGET_FUNCPTR 0x20C9118+0x24

Only thing that stinks is it appears the save has to be 16KB or the game erases it. There are a lot of games with 16Kb saves at least.

Has anyone confirmed this working?

 

[srwgin]

I am not sure what the problem it is

It works, i downgraded a SFC and Pikachu one

I know this is really unfair, but could you send me the titlekey for the JPN dsiware game somehow? I recently changed my o3ds region from US to JPN and I can't access the eshop. Without it, I can't do the dsi downgrade for my n3ds

You can't transfer between regions and if you don't buy the game it won't transfer anyway.

I was thinking of getting the JPN dectitle key for a dsiware so that I can install it on my region changed old 3ds (JPN now) via freeshop. I thought that installing dsiware on freeshop was considered legit.

No - you'll have a "good" cia in that you can redownload it from the eShop on the same console you installed it on but it won't transfer. Nintendo will only move tickets that are registered with their servers as having been bought.

I'll give you the id but i don't think it will help
