Thanks for the reply. I forgot to ask, which version of sysupdater did you use?

how i boot in rxtools devmode?

 

[VerseHell]

In the Advanced options menu

 

[GamingAori]

where can i find the advanced options menu? i use rxtools 2.6

 

[VerseHell]

2.6 doesn't have devmode. Either use 2.5.2 or the latest nightly. (if you're updating for themehax, you will need the latest nightly anyway)

Managed to update my Blue 9.2.0-0E 3DS.
Borrowed a Sky3DS, writed Cubic Ninja and installed Ninjhax2.1.
In Homebrew Launcher I opened PastaCFW, Ninjhax again, and then FBI, but no matter what it stuck with a white screen.
After a good hour of smashing my head against a wall, I installed themehax to return the Sky3DS (I had it only for a limited ammount of time..), downloaded Decrypt9WIP, extracted NAND+XorPad, injected FBI in H&S app and restored modified NAND.
FBI was finally launching, however it took another 2 hours to figure out I was missing the 2 f@*#ing title.db & import.db files in the dbs folder to finally install sysupdater & update to 9.2.0-20E.

Hello versehell ! I followed the indication you gave me yesterday, but as the 9.2 eur firmware is currently unavailable on "that iso site", I tried with the 9.0.

I put all the .cia files from the pack in "updates" directory, launched rxtools 2.5.2, and finally clicked on devmode. It brought me back to home menu (wich is normal I guess), and then I launched sysupdater.. Had to press A to launch the procedure, and it begin... After some times, it prompts a "fail", and says that he can't find files in "/updates".. Idea where the problem is?
thanks you!

 

[VerseHell]

Did you put the updates folder on the root?

 

[OxyO12]

Yep, but something went wrong...
Now, I still have access to the home menu, but not the parameters... Sys updater is still on sysnand, but I can't launch it (says I have to redownload it..).
After plugging my SD card on my computer, I can't touch anything (when I delete something, it reapears after a while).
Since I can't access the parameter to set a new wifi, I can't launch the launcher.dat to use my backuped nand.bin...

I'm gonna try my sd card on an other computer, but I guess it may be corrupted... Do you think if I use a other sd card, with a launcher.dat (on the same wifi network (which I will be near only in two weeks..)) it may saves my 3DS ?

Thanks for your efforts and help.

So, I am in RxTools Dev Mode and I installed SysUpdater. My question is do I update from Devmenu? I really dont wanna brick my 3DS haha

 

[VerseHell]

Yes, devmode only.

 

[tivu100]

where can i find the advanced options menu? i use rxtools 2.6

Use 3.0 alpha build or 2.5.2 build. 2.6 doesn't support devmode.

Same situation as you. Bought a used day-one o3ds which has only been upgraded once through a Pokemon Y cartridge. So now i'm on 6.1.0-0E (without a browser)

I own a Cubic Ninja retail cart. What is the plan here? I read after hours of lurking here and there that Ninjhax 2 works without a browser. To use that i need to upgrade to 9.2.0-0E via cart, Right? But then? It seems that even Ninjhax 2 doesn't support the -0 firmware (as there's no possiblity to select it on the site to make the qr pop-up)

How did you manage to do the Ninjhax on 9.2.0-0E? Once i did that i could have the possiblity to install the themehax and return the cartridge to the owner. With all the time in my hands then...

For 9.2.0-0E use QR code 9.2.0-13E CN

Either find a game which contains the 9.2 update, or buy a ds flashcart.

Will you confirm that the EU Cooking Mama 5: Bon Appetit's cart has the 9.2.0 firmware in it?

[EDIT]I'm asking because i read two pages back that you accomplished the task with a Cooking Mama game
