So i just downgraded my n3ds to 9.2, here are some of the side effects im seeing, are any of them normal?

1:c-stick no longer works
2:eshop games dont boot, but cartridges do
3:all my themes are gone, but im assuming that doesnt matter
4:Browserhax takes significantly more tries, but in the end i got it working
5: all dsi game wre-wrapped, not a big deal
6: badges gone (duh)

So who is having these problems, and who isnt? N3ds users only, and the first 2 arre really the only ones that matter.

Edit:c-stick works now

Those side-effects leave me feeling like your NNID was unlinked or something.

Your c-stick conundrum makes me think you used the wrong .cias, or it didn't install certain ones. I know that's a hardware thing, but it's reminding me of how some 2DS users had to slide the 3D slider up in order to continue the first-time-setup.

1: C-Stick still works perfectly fine for me
2: I had the same problem for a short time but somehow it solved itself. Try running eShop games in EmuNAND, mine didn't work at first in SysNAND mode for some reason
3: I think this is normal, not sure.
4: Why do you need to use Browserhax when you can install the HBL CIA anyways?
5: ???????
6: The Badge-Application uninstalls itself once downgraded. You cannot reinstall it except getting the eShop link to it on your homescreen.

i needed browserhax to get into the launcher. I was gonna use ironhax, but obviously eshop games crash. Right now i got impatient waiting for my sd card so im backing up my phone's sd on mpy computer, and my 3ds will formwat that sd card when installing emunand.

Everything works perfect for me except for mucked up 3d. I have to close it and open it again. But not a big deal.
