Yea i already have that tutorial on my bookmarks its just that some steps on the thread are done differently than the video so it confused me
well the video you posted is for 2.6 and outdated thets why its different you can follow it if you want but when done you will want to update your rxtools version so you can autoboot cfw so why not kill two birds with one stone and just use the newer guide

I was going to follow the guide on the thread but when i downloaded that rxTools given there i saw this "rxTools nightly build buggy and incomplete"
so i thought its not that good , is it stable ?
just a stupid question : what do you mean by "you can autoboot cfw" ? rx mode boots automatically when i turn my 3ds on ?
and thanks alot you really helped me out ^^

i use the 9-28 build from this link RxTools Nightlies by @WhoAmI? it's the most stable build i have used

yes that's exactly what i mean by autoboot here is a video of it https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be&v=LcAMVMpXjzo
also the only stupid question is an unasked question

i couldnt find that option but i found a firmware.bin here :
its gonna work too right ?
first remove that link it violates gbatemp rules
and it may or may not work (differint versions of rxtools use different firmware.bin files) but one you make yourself will work for sure

the only part of the process that is dangerous at all is updating sysnand and even that is safe if you read first and follow the instructions carefully

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.
