Hacking Gateway Downgrading

[Adeka]

So, some people seem confused, so I'll post some clean-up.
1. Have emunand set up and UNLINKED.
2. US downgrades you to 4.2
3. Both exploits work
4. You need to make a sysNAND backup on 3.0.1 before you downgrade, plus, be safe kids, use protection

I used the 3.0.0 launcher.dat when I did my downgrade

Is it actually version 4.5 or a cfw made by GW? How is it possible to downgrade when hardware mods require a console-specific NAND backup? If it is 4.5, what are the odds of it being tampered with?

This is making me crazy someone who can check please reply can we install 4.5 CFW by govanify without gateway cards

Dude, the 2DS uses the same firmware as the 3ds. It is probably risky, but it could work.

2DS needs to be on a higher firmware, motherboard and physicals have been changed.

Higher firmware compensates for these changes on the 2DS hardware if you go lower some things might not work.

I formatted my console once the downgrade was complete and it worked perfect. Looks like it downgrades to the REAL 4.2

True. I want some brave/rich person to downgrade a 2DS using this and hear the results.

I have this 2ds just chillin would make booting into gw so much easier if it weren't on 9.2 but I scared

Thanks, fixed it in my post.

Can you only downgrade to 4.5, or other firmwares as well?

currently only 4.5 or 4.2 if it's a US model

I downgraded my White EU 3ds to 4.5.
But how can I now launch m retail Pokemon Omega Ruby?

Fear not! The 2DS isn't supported yet.

Literally nothing to fear.

the DG files is probably a serial of targeted patches

My little sister has a 9.1 console. If I downgrade it to 4.5 will all her game saves stop working?

 

[diecast82]

This might be a dumb question, but if I downgrade to 4.2 and then want to load a newer rom is emunand required or is that just for online and retail games?

If you want to restore your NAND.BIN from SD Card to sysnand, simply hold UP when entering the Downgrade menu will launch the restore menu.

Wait a minute. So, with this we can install CFW now?!!

If you use emuNAND with 9.4 version, you can use saves.
