New to this site and discussion boards in general hope I’m posting this correctly and in the right place.
I recently put cfw on 3DS fw11.9.0-42 with r4 plus preflashed using the 3DS.guide. installed b9,luma9.1 hbl, godmode9,fbi and a few cias all were working but all of a sudden if I reboot,go to settings, or just power off I lose the cfw. To get it back I have to put magnet on and hold the 4 buttons down. Other than being a pain it also prevents me from accessing god mode since I lose the cfw when I power it off. I have been looking around a lot trying to find someone with the same problem with no luck. I took everything off the sd card and tried to start over but I kept getting SigHax not found so I gave up on that and put everything back on the sd card and I’m back to where I started. Any ideas to fix this would be greatly appreciated

It might be the flashcart. Try using frogminer.

You didn't actually install B9S. Do it again. It sounds like you just put Luma3DS as the boot.firm and skipped the part where you put the B9S installer as boot.firm and do the install using the flashcart.
You shouldn't have to do the other steps again, just the part that involves the magnet, once you put the B9S files (boot.firm and boot9strap folder) on the SD card.

Do I just replace boot.firm that’s on the sd card now since that came from luma and place b9 boot.firm on root of sd card and then rename boot9strap_ntr.firm and boit9strap_ntr.firm.sha that is in the boot9strap folder

I tried to install the boot.firm from b9s as well as renamed the two files to boot9strap folder they had _ntr.firm. Says on top screen SigHaxed Firm not installed also on second screen says arm9LoaderHax not Installed SigHax Firm invalid

Thanks for the help I got it to work the problem was the boot.3ds. I didn’t rename the safeb9installer.3ds to boot.3ds. Guide just said to copy boot.3ds not to rename that file. Guess that’s why I’m a noob.

    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.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.
