Since 3dnus servers are no longer working this method will no longer work

Thanks for the reply, that's disheartening to hear, I was looking forward to it too...

Responded to you in the 3dnus thread, any other way to get to 9.2j?

Thanks.

If I were the 8.1.0-0J new method's discoverer, I would keep it private or commercially since all rivals (GW team and NTR author at the moment) are making it private.

I think I have an idea to upgrade (you need 1 (n)3ds able to install cia, (sky3ds, cubic ninja, or oot), and gateway)
1. go find 9.0.0j updates somewhere on the internet (hint: this console iso)
2. find dr mario miracle cure (jap) then install dr mario miracle cure on the ciaintallable-console
3. go load dr mario's download play mode
4. go to download play and launch dr mario, it will tell you to update, say yes
5. play( if you want)
6. now on your 8.1j n3ds now updated to 9.0, put 9.0.0j n3ds update files on your sd
7. go launch the gateway menu using an exploitable game
8. in gateway mode (sysnand) install sysupdater using cia installer
9. now in sysupdater press update
10. a title should fail to install, now in the cia installer find the title that failed to install and try installing it two times
11. now finish updating with sysupdater
12. restart n3ds
13. check if browser works

if browser works, you can now use ninjhax w/ cfw! you can now install 9.2 update normally w/ cfw!

yes, it's a eshop only game, which is why you need to either buy it from the eshop or install the .cia to an cia installable system
lets say i pass that step, what is wrong in step 8 if i just install the browser cia instead of the sysupdater?

First thing first, using sysupdater from gateway sysNAND mode will brick your console, secondly the tickets won't be properly signed if you install the browser CIA from gateway mode and won't launch (same reason sysupdater will brick from GW mode) hope that answers your question
