A9LH installed and working (AureiNAND autoboot) but now I'm trying to boot into my GW to convert all my .3ds saves to cia games.

But GW won't boot. I'm trying to boot aureiNAND by holding L to boot 9.0 SYSNAND but it doesn't work

i just read Plailect's guide. on that link my emunand must be the same region as my sysnand. so i must create new emunand?
If your EmuNAND is a different region than your SysNAND, I'd grab a new SD card and make a new EmuNAND.

Do you have the firm90 files?

Failed verification in the guide, but a9lh is working and successful
OTP helper has a tendency to give false positives. Glad you got it working, but next time you should use GodMode9 to verify that the downgrade is successful.

so if i install permanent cfw using arm9loaderhax i cant change my emunand's region? is that right?

@Plailect for what it's worth, on the n3ds I had a OTPHelper validation error on 000401300002f02. Another person on this thread reported the same problem. After checking mine I could confirm it was a false positive and continuing worked.

It's worth noting that I attempted the downgrade three times and each time it gave me the same false positive (I checked after each downgrade). Even though I knew it was a false positive I tried to get rid of it by attempting the downgrade again.

ok thanks for your answer bro

I hope someone would answer this since I already posted the same question on the "Ask" thread and on Plailects main a9lh thread.

Just installed it last night with the minor hiccup of a false positive on the 2.1 downgrade

This was done an a Majoras Mask N3DS XL that was on 10.7

If it's a false positive you can just continue I had one on the exact same spot

Yep, I got the same thing on a n3ds. It seemed to be a false positive after checking with GodMode9. Restoring it worked, but I'd check anyway :)
I'll go ahead and do that. I'm still a bit wary about proceeding. I'd hate to brick it since I don't ever want to go back to o3DS. My hands are too big for it. Thanks for the info though. Glad to hear it worked out for you.

@Plailect You were helping me in IRC, but I ended up just using an older revision of your guide to do my sons 2DS, since it didn't cause me any problems. That being said, thank you very much for your hard work.

I've now been successful with a US N3DS XL as well (had the false alert TMD issue with 2 items this time but since I was aware of the potential this time around, it was only a minor interruption) and installed AuRei this time around.

    Hello
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    @SylverReZ find me ONE community that is free of drama and politics. even video games forums (like this one) have politics section. and for some reason gamers still take consoles/brands wars seriously. even as a kid i never took the console wars bait despite being a nintendo kid.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    one of the reasons i deleted all my social media accounts, reddit account (although i was rarely using it) etc was to get away from this shit.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Vetusomaru, Sadly, not all communities like to play nice. Forums are pretty much dying despite Discord amongst other social media being available.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    i only kept my twitter accounts and only because many of the artists i like share their art only/mostly at twitter.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    lots of discord groups (even the big ones) are also dead for some reason.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Twitter is way too shittier.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    that's why i added some firefox addons to block shit like twitter trends.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Discord, on the other hand, moderation tends to not be very nice in video game communities from what I had experienced.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    nah, discord is also a shithole. discord is good only if you have your own community with your own rules. or if you re lucky to find some groups that arent shitholes.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    as about forums, when i recently revisited some old forums i used to be regular and seeing how immature most members still are i was like "Yeap. Nothing of value has been lost.". Unfortunately it's the good, comfy forums that ended up dead or shut down, especially because of internet centralization.
