Homebrew Install Legit CIA 2DS 9.2

[nino08807]

So I'm trying to install a few legit cias on my 2ds version 9.2 but all the youtube videos say 9.3+ and I have homebrew and fbi when I open fbi, it works fine and I can do everything but the install cia option isn't there. I tried to upgrade through safesysupdater and sysupdater but none are working so in safesysudater I did the cia file md5 test and one of them failed. I got the firmware fresh from the mega folder with all of the 3ds and n3ds versions and firmwares is it the firmware package that I got? I just want to install the cias without updating but if I have to update that's fine too but Id rather not. I have easy homebrew access (oot3dhax). What do I do to install them?

Use another CIA installer.

If you're on 9.2, you can install any damn CIA that you want, legit or not.

I would advise getting the latest version of FBI and also to stop following youtube tutorials. They are always outdated and you are much more likely to screw something up by following outdated directions and/or using outdated tools.

I tried NASA and it said it installed fine but I restarted and it wasn't on the home screen

what are some alternate cia installers besides nasa and fbi? Ill try some of them

 

[FenrirWolf]

FBI is by far the best installer. Just make sure you have the newest version of it.

1) Do not rely on youtube
2) You are on expoitable firmware. Do not update. I assume you aren't using cfw since you want to just install legit cias. https://github.com/Plailect/Guide/wiki/ Follow this guide to part 4 step 17. It will have you setup emunand, luma, fbi on emunand, and unlink your nands (which is what you will want to do to get the most out of your ds)

I do the install cia option or install and delete cia options aren't there

ok sn0w so I looked at the guide you posted I have one question, what does arm9loaderhax do?

 

[nino08807]

After I do that ih8ih8sn0w, will I be stuck on firmware 2.1.0?

no just read guide ...

You are on Firmwafe 9.2 which makes you able to use CFW and install unsigned/non-legit cia files. Arm9LoaderHax goes even further than making an emunand and use a CFW. With a9lh you have almost complete control over your device only milliseconds after boot and you won't need emunand anymore. But it is your choice if you do a9lh (even tho I would recommend it).

ok I did that I have working rednand and emunand and cfw thx sn0w

 

[nino08807]

I figured it out. I used an outdated version of FBI. So I installed all of the ones I wanted except for one when I got to the last one I got an error saying cert signature or hash check failed I tried downloading fbi again and got a brand new cia and I'm still getting the same thing. What does that mean and how do I fix it?

 

[SimplyFedorable]

Try using an non legit cia, I have the same issue trying to install legit cias in cfw

 

[nino08807]

The rest of them that I installed were legit and worked fine but ill try

 

[SimplyFedorable]

hmmmm, try using freeshop or ciangel, it installs directly from nintendos servers

 

[nino08807]

does freeshop even have that?

[SimplyFedorable]

You will need this to use free shop. Just install, run, and your good to go

 

[nino08807]

I just tried to install the freeshop cia and got the same error

What CFW are you using? What version is your emuNAND at? And are you trying to install the games on your emuNAND or sysNAND?

 

[nino08807]

I'm using luma cfw emunand 9.2 and sysnand 9.2 trying to install them on sysnand
