Hello.

I use regular Reinand and wanted to try this mod (replacing the needed files) but it freezes at splash screen.

I'm in 10.6 New 3ds XL

What could the problem be?

Thanks

When I swap my nands to use the updated sysnand as my default, will future updates of the a9lh installer be distributed to install with a9lh?
I just want to ask, because the 3dsx installer will not work anymore for sysnands 10.6+ ???
I would like to know this as well. Would the homebrew launcher loader cia work with updating a9lh?

At the moment, no. You cannot run the installer for Arm9LoaderHax on 9.3+.

You need to be on 9.0-9.2 with the 9.0 FIRM. That, or use dark samus' updater which uses A9LH to update it.

I suppose it's safe to assume dark samus will provide an updater for any future a9lh updates? Or is a9lh itself mature and won't need updating? I've been debating the switch to sysNAND for a while now, but if I do that I don't want emuNAND on my SD which means I'd need to rely on that updater for any a9lh updates, or I would need to reinject my emuNAND which would be a pain just for that.

Future updates for the time being will require 9.2 fw launched via .3dsx from HBL; so I would hold off. The updater can only update stage 2 but new features to be released will need to go in stage 1, updater wont work.

Depends if it's possible.

There'd need to be an updater that updates stage1 as well.

He's already stated in the arm9 thread, it's not possible to edit stage 1 via an updater, your otp is required again for that.

What's the "usepatchedfw" file for?
In layman's terms, it uses the same "patched_firmware.bin" (without recreating one each time) file when soft rebooting from system settings (or something similar), which probably shaves off a second or two. At least I think.

On that note, will the a9lh installer work from 9.2 emuNAND? Or will it try and install a9lh to the emuNAND itself?

I'm new to NTR and am trying to get it running for the first time. I am using a9lh with a 9.2 sysnand and 10.6 emunand. I have the bootntr.cia installed and the ntr.bin on the root of my sd card. In the op it says i need the firmware.bin for the n3ds from the NTR folder in the firms.7z but it does not say where to put it on my sd card. Where does it go?

Put it in the /rei/ folder.
