Sorry I think I didn't ask correct, I mean the cfw when downgrading to get otp, the tutorial uses cakes. But is this possible with aureinand?
Yes it is. Just use AuReiNAND instead of Cakes. Each time it mentions Cakes, pretends it says AuReiNAND.

i restore emunand using otphelper as the guide said. is it different? im using otphelper from plailect guide..
Pretty sure it doesn't matter.

Hello, I was in the prossess of installing A9LH on a N3DS. Everything went smoothly until i got to the safe A9LH part (on the Aureinand version at step 7 under Installing arm9loaderhax) Somehow, i get this error saying that secret_sector.bin doesn't exist. Could i get some help about this and some explanation about the secret_sector.bin ?

Thanks,

Did you create a folder on the root of your SD card called "a9lh" and placed all the needed files in there? (including secret_sector.bin.)

ok now it worked. On the guide it says that i should boot on CFW sysnand. Does Aureinand Patch the Ver. string like Reinand does and show it in system setting ? Cause i got nothing here but regular version showing up.

No it doesn't patch it, but you're safe to update, so don't worry about it.

So, noob here. Been doing a lot of research and found lots of different and varying info, but nothing definitive. How would I go about installing A9LH on a Jap N3DS if I want a USA sysNAND outcome?

You can try placing a NAND backup of the region changed emuNAND on the root of your SD card called "NAND.bin". The A9LH installer will restore to your sysNAND and install A9LH over it/after it. So your system will be a different region and have A9LH installed.


finally, i can downgrade and get my otp..

now i want to ask, how to change emunand region in permanent cfw? can you give me more details? what tutorial should i follow

thanks..

I notice in the downgrading section it doesn't have the part that says N3DS JP users need to delete a specific cia to avoid a brick.

Has the offending cia already been removed from your 9.2 JP downgrade cia pack? Is it safe to just use it as is?

Edit: the answer seems to be yes!

I used an earlier version of your guide where only CTRNAND was injected into SysNAND, is it possible for me to get the other AGBSAVE/TWLN/ TWLP out of my EmuNAND (on PC is fine ) original.bin or do I have to recreate an EmuNAND partiation and reinject it to dump those ?
