Full Guide Release!

https://plailect.github.io/OTP/

All regions now supported!

If you appreciate this guide and the work I put into maintaining it, I accept donations through both Bitcoin and PayPal.

If you felt like the guide helped you out then I'd really appreciate it! If I get enough I may buy a 2DS for testing hardware stuff so I don't break another N3DS.

If the guide didn't help you out then I'm really sorry about that

Woot 2.1 here!!!!!!!!!

 

[Mrrraou]

Yup, also tried copying both files again
Could it be that I've gotten a partial downgrade?

I don't think so.

 

[Arubaro]

The guide for o3ds without cubic ninja says that you need Python but in which part do you have to use it?

 

[runetoonxx2]

Woot 2.1 here!!!!!!!!!

o3ds or n3ds

 

[PedroPVJ]

LOL
I'm sorry for wasting your time, I misplaced an "?" from the URL..
Guess my memory isn't as perfect as I wanted it to be

Do we have to re-dump the xorpads if we ran the faulty Windows.py?

Anyone?

 

[FONZD]

Anyone?

no, bricked_emunand.bin only if you don't have a copy

 

[Chuu]

no, bricked_emunand.bin only if you don't have a copy

im guessing we should also rename the files from nand.fat16_0x5_.xorpad to nand.fat16.xorpad and nand.fat16_0x4_.xorpad to nand.fat16.0x4.xorpad

edit: im getting this issue when i run it
The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.
0 file(s) moved.

edit: fixed it by removing the existing unbricked folder

 

[Svaethier]

So I copied my sysnand.bin file from the one I previously made but it says it couldn't find it. Found my emunand just fine though :/

You are using the old one. That's one of the issues I fixed.

Well, I think it's only needed by n3ds' users?

 

[Svaethier]

OK my older sysnand bin file that I made yesterday before the revision2 guide came out works. Make sure your sysnand bin is called NAND

@Plailect uploaded your version onto his guide
So it SHOULD work fine for downgrading sysnand, yes?

 

[runetoonxx2]

soo anyone tested this on n3ds

 

[Svaethier]

Back on emunand 10.5 and sysnand 9.1 can anyone please compile my otp file for me?

 

[ShadowOne333]

Going back to 2.1 in Sysnand for my N3DS looks really, really risky.
The pay off is not really worth it for me.

I might be better of just waiting a little bit more until a new method to dump the OTP comes out which doesn't involve downgrading.
What makes 2.1 the ideal FW? Was it because it wasn't blocked by Nintendo by that FW?
What's stopping the current FW from dumping OTP?

It's the version where the OTP was exposed by accident, or something like that
