Don't bother with updating the Sysnand.

...unless you want to use menuhax to boot straight into cfw.

...unless you want to use menuhax to boot straight into cfw.

I wouldn't recommend doing that though. If something goes wrong, it is just a big hassle because you need to take the themehax payload of your SD Card so it doesn't boot into a broken emuNAND. Then you have to fix the problem, reinstall themehax, etc.. Besides, is it really so hard to click on system settings and launch the MSET exploit into RXTools or similar?

Also, welcome to the <= 9.2 club Jack_Sparrow! Have a fun with pirating lots of rad homebrew!

it's entirely done because of convenience. nobody said it was so hard to use the mset exploit. I'm certainly going to do it.

besides, is it really that you would need to remove themehax just because you broke something unrelated to it?

Just update to 9.2 Its worth the easibility of themehax.

Well, if you're emuNAND is broken, and you have themehax booting right into that, wouldn't it just crash the 3DS on load up?

that's why you use a boot manager (CtrBootManager?), or just hold a button to make homemenuhax not trigger the *hax payload...

Can i use FBI injection and all that on my firmware? Or do i need to update to 9.0-9.2?

updating to 9.0 - 9.2 is mostly for the convenience of menuhax only. but any version 9.2 and below can do pretty much anything.

I've been running 7.2 on mine since I got it and I don't plan to ever change that.

I always forget that is a feature. On my New 3DS, I just have it boot directly.

Nope. It works below 9.0, and definitely on 6.0.0.

and that's perfectly fine for you. but some people may want to use 9.0 - 9.2 for menuhax.

If i Install CIAs to the SysNAND will i get bricked?

I HIGHLY doubt it. You won't be able to play them anyways, unless you want to take forever launching homebrew, just so you can you PastaCFW to patch signatures. That is why we use emuNAND. Auto signature patching, which makes it easier to pirate games play .cia homebrew. What I'm saying here is, install all your .cia files to emuNAND.

you can use cfw with sysnand but I wouldn't recommend it. yes, you can boot directly into that as well, if you so desire.

Why would you want to though? If you have access to that, you have access to emuNAND, which can also be on the latest firmware.

exactly, why would you want to? but it's still possible. I knew of someone who was doing that for quite some time.

Sysnand should exist entirely as a launcher for emunand and should be ignored aside from that.
