I got the retail original legit blah pokemon moon and I try loading it with gateway 9.2 and it says the cartridge is removed when I run it... I have been able to play other Japanese games also retail (since I use a US 3ds).

Is this related to all this? Or if I simply wait for the next gateway update it will probably get fixed? Thanks
Pokemon Sun/Moon only work on NATIVE_FIRM 11.0.
My suggestion is really reconsider going with A9LH and a free CFW instead. That way you are always up to date.

So Nintendo have started to open their eyes? Great, people need to move on now, rxTools is dead, there are no more updates now so using it is not a wise choice.

Using rxTools is like using Windows XP in 2016, yes it might work and all your programs do, but over time you are going to lose app support and security features very quickly.
 
I have a question regarding A9LH install, what of the two folders I have to erase that 00000000? Because I have EmuNAND and SysNAND, one of 32 characters folder is 23.8GB and the other is 146MB. What is the one I should go to erase that 00000000?

REFERENCE on Plailect's Guide:
"Clear Home Menu’s extdata by navigating to the following folder on your SD card: /Nintendo 3DS/(32 Character ID)/(32 Character ID)/extdata/00000000/"

Back up both, then delete the smaller one. Normally the smaller one is old sysNAND, if you are replacing your sysNAND with your emuNAND, you won't need the old sysNAND folder.

I want to say now that I finished installing the CFW, it felt GOOD installing A9LH. It boots like an unhacked 3DS and no more EMUNAND/SYSNAND dilemma.

I was being delusional with RxTools all this year because I had fear of bricking. Now that I overcame the fear, it was reaaaaally worth it. I recommend this!
 
Stop using rxTools? someone should make it compatible with A9LH. :P
Interestingly enough RXTools was the first CFW to support A9LH, but it in a never released Nightly build.
Still, you can get the same RXTools effect without bugs by using Decrypt9
 
I can understand the apprehension of not messing with something that you have set up, but switching to arm9 is so easy now I'm not sure why people use Rx still imo
 
I very much remember an A9LH version of rxTools posted here. It thankfully disappeared into the void as it did not have FIRM protection.
It was made in private, but was never released to the public. It's funny to think that RXTools was actually the first CFW to support A9LH
 
What if many users are still using govanify's (leaked) cfw? Or PBT? Or pasta cfw loaded with brahma? Rxtools may not be the only problem.

Now that you mention it I seen a few palatine guides on YouTube.
