OK its your choice just don't go here crying for help if you brick you have already been advised by the community

Yes but that video was made before 11.0 came out presumably, with the release of 11.0 there are a few more steps that are needed when downgrading to 2.1, but if you feel like using an outdated guide then be our guest, can't say we didn't warn you though!

It's still better to follow Plailect's guide, though: https://github.com/Plailect/Guide/wiki
It's always up-to-date unlike videos.

so i already installed it on one of my 3ds but i want to do it on a limted edition 3ds and i don't want to brick it

The only really risky part is downgrading to 9.2 and if you're already there it's pretty much risk free unless you can't read or follow instructions. There are so many safety measurements in Plailect's guide it's near impossible to break your 3DS installing A9LH. Of course there is always this 1% change of a random hardware failure but other than that there is nothing to worry besides the initial 9.2 downgrade.

Look, you've even got Margen telling you to follow the guide, and given the way he preaches A9LH I'd probably follow that guide if I were you

i don't like reading and mr marios trustworthy the tutu might be a bit out datedb
ut you just change the steps and use could a9hl instead of compleing it on your pc

I don't get it. You come on here, ask a question you already know the answer to, and then when people offer advice you reject it on the basis of admitted laziness.

I'll take "Brick" for 1000$, Alex.

thing is it says to update your rednand to lasted version i don't think thats needed cause that will just patch downgrading

Thing is, you should stop thinking you know better than the OG A9LH guide and people here trying to help you.
Or you should just not ask questions, then immediately ignore any advice or replies.
Youve basically rendered your own thread useless doing these things.

 

[hacksn5s4]

the guide needs to be fixed a litte though it says update your rednand to lasted version and i don't think that matters cause i have 10.70 and 11.00 blocks downgrading emunand unless you use luma 3ds andi have rx tools

 

[Hayleia]

The guide already tries to cover all cases (like in the beginning, "what to do when you're between this and that firmware version", unlike all guides starting with "this only works for 9.0-9.2, gtfo if you're not there"), it's not going to make simplifications for every single case like as you said "no need to do this in that precise case but in that other precise case you can do that and in this one here you do this or that is possible too". Yo usaid yourself you didn't like reading so don't complain there isn't more text in a working guide now.

Look kid if you're going to ignore all people's advice and just show your point PLEASE , with all respect GTFO REALLY.
Follow peoples advice if you don't wanna brick because there's not even ONE guide as brick proof and updated as pailect's. If you refuse that you risk bricking. And even though the community is preaching to you to follow the guide but you're too stubborn/lazy/you're just a bad troll, please take your opinion and get out. You created this thread asking for help and you're shitting on people's advice.

Then you're not able to do this procedure by video or by guide as the guide is simpler. Also invest a bit on your English (please!)

If you follow the guide, you end up using luma in the end anyhow because rxtools does not support a9lh. So, the guide is correct in its current form.

how do you replace rxtools with luma 3ds before you get arm9loader hax

Put it on your sd card.....select luma from homebrew channel instead of rxtools....

Delete the rxtools folder and the boot.3dsx and boot.cfg and in the luma3ds folder copy the boot.3dsx in the menu hax folder to the root the 3ds folder to the root the luma3ds.DAT to the root and the luma folder to the root
