Hardware New guy that needs a Complete Walk through of Hacking my N3DS XL

[Viary]

Omg i just got it to work!!! Pray for me!

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Dang! Got maybe 15 Cia in then it says Error has occurred etc try again. Did i soft brick lol?

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Ok so a error occurred. Only way to use DS was to go in safe mode LRAU. I removed SD card and it booted fine so I know she is okay atm. Anyways what do I need to do to the SD card to get it back up?

I removed SD card and it booted fine so I know she is okay atm

your memory card has memuhax on it correct the payload is incorrect load up without the sd inserted then insert it and change the theme to remove menuhax
. . .
but first what fw version does your settings say

 

[A_Bricked_Guy]

Just turn it on without the SD card and then plug it once boot, then just change your theme to remove Menuhax

 

[Viary]

Well I booted up without the SD fine. Out of curiosity I go to Sytem Settings and look at my firmware version and its 9.2???Take it im screwed ? Anways I changed the theme. Now what? Do Bhacks and then reinstall menu and try DG or ?

 

[A_Bricked_Guy]

Get 9.2 was the purpose, thats the lastest hackable firmware. Now you are free to install an emunand and Reinand CFW

 

[Pereb]

No, 9.2 is what you should be at.

I would set up menuhax again and keep trying with sysupdater since you need to downgrade the rest of the cias. Since some of them are already downgraded I believe it will just skip those making it easier for the process to finish. Once you finish I would reccomend checking your 9.2 with downgrade checker to make sure you have all cias downgraded before setting up emunand.

downgrade checker.

now you reinstall menuhax and run this to see if you need to fix anything

You probably have a frankenfirm some cias are 9.2 others are not, use the downgrade checker linked in the above posts to see. But since its not a brick you can still downgrade the rest of the files.

I was seriously thinking I bricked. The CIAS maybe got 15ish done it seemed then I got a error. Anyways Im at the HB launcher installing menuhax and she booted right up. RYU will running sys DG again perhaps mess it up or? Should I be okay to go?

Ok about to use it in a few minutes. One sec and ill report back!

you may not need to downgrade again . . . that is the point of the downgrade checker

 

[Viary]

So I ran it and I have Red and yellow text files. Expected vs Installed. Smh. That cant be good lol?

how many were wrong? At most there really should only be 1 which is the amiibo settings, but most likely you have to run sysupdater again, if you take a pic or post what downgrade checker says someone can tell you.

Yes you can still run sys updater again if all the files didn't downgrade since you said it froze after 15 or so makes me think you didn't get them all for sure.

 

[Viary]

24 wrong 1 extra no missing?

Yes you have to run sysupdater again to downgrade the rest of the files, since you said it froze and only did a few of them. Nothing will work right on cfw with that many wrong files. Have to basically do the same thing you were doing before since it still sucks to start sysupdater.

 

[Viary]

I was told not to try to risk DG again so im kinda nervous lol! Should I just ride it out and install a CFW and pray ?Btw you guys are great with all this help! couldn't have done it without you fellas.

 

[Pereb]

I could be wrong but, if NATIVE_FIRM downgraded properly you may be able to get CFW to work. If that didn't downgrade, don't bother trying. I'd recommend doing the downgrade again anyway.

 

[A_Bricked_Guy]

Still alive m8? lol

 

[Viary]

Yea lol debating on trying to install CFW or DG again......Any guides on installing Reinand?
