Since my Japan N3ds downgrade went great I just bought a brand new Hyrule edition N3ds XL on 9.9U just waiting for the new safer downgrade program to be release.

Edit: Had to update to 10.3 to use the internet browser thank god I did before nintendo dropped 10.4

I would risk the upgrade as you can return the 3ds if you brick it, assuming you got it from a store with a return policy.

once 10.4 comes out, soft bricks will be stuck upgrading to 10.4, no redos after that.

Here is what i did. I downgraded my 3ds from firmware version 10.3 europe to 9.2 europe using this guide:

https://gbatemp.net/threads/simple-guide-to-downgrading-your-3ds.407888/

Then I installed a custom firmware to launch on coldboot following this guide:

https://gbatemp.net/threads/tutorial-setting-up-9-0-9-2-n3ds-xl-for-

Everything worked out fine on a N3DS, no issues what-so-ever. I didn't format my system before downgrading either.

(I also don't take responsibility if something happens to someone who follows those links)

Successfully downgraded my European N3DSXL from 10.3-9.2. Although I had the cia error but deleting both updates and sysupdater folders and then putting them back on the SD card fixed it.

Downgraded successful from 9.9 to 9.2 .Currently doing backup of sysnand using emunand9. I just started emunand9 from homebrew and then i selected dump sysnand as nand.bin . Is this the right way to proceed ?

That or use the gateway menu to do a nand dump. Either should work without any problems.

Just going to post this video, It's not my tutorial but after trying countless times to get it working I followed what this guy did in his video, including the db files part and the mashing b out of ftpony.

Following his steps it worked after 2 attempts. I also double checked the cia update files were correct for my system (europe) and they were in the updates folder on root.

Maybe I just got lucky, but I seriously lost count of my attempts before finding the video.

I bit the bullet and downgraded my Hyrule N3DSXL from 10.3 to 9.2 with Julian's sysUpdater. Everything went fine, shows 9.2, browserhax works, menuhax works, but I have the situation where I can't install non-legit CIAs with FBI.
