This just makes me reflect on how damn long it took to install A9LH back in the day. Awesome job there, we've come a long way in 3DS hacking.

 

Should work.

 

I remember reading soundhax doesnt work with cart updates

 

That is true. Browserhax still works on 11.2 no?
Edit: Nope, that's when it was patched.
Getting a ntrboot flashcart is probably cheaper than one of the primary exploit games.

 

Pretty sure there are other entrypoints for 11.2.

 

To make things a bit more clear, OCS does not depend upon soundhax, you can use OCS with any entrypoint between firmware 11.3 and 9.0

 

Not a complaint about this process, very excited for this!

But what's the point of selecting "Show NAND or Userstring in system settings", if you know for a fact that you have B9S installed. Once you get B9S installed, your 3DS will only boot up if you're running a .firm payload so you know for sure that you're running CFW. It's especially obsolete since users aren't using emuNAND so there's no reason to differentiate the system settings Ver string. Once you're in the Luma config, you know for a fact that you have B9S and don't need any further confirmation than that. The change from "Ver. to Sys." doesn't mean anything for sysNAND users. At a day and age where you can unbrick any 3DS with the magnet method, emuNAND is worthless unless you're just trying to bypass the 300 title limit you dirty pirate!

I honestly think ticking the splash option is much more useful and adds a nice touch (Don't tell me that it takes longer to boot with a splash, you'd have to be the most impatient person in the world). And enabling the splash option doesn't mean that your 3DS will automatically display a splash, you have to manually add the splash files to your SD card. I wonder why this option isn't enabled by default, or why the guide doesn't mention anything about it yet it provides a theme manager which is another optional added touch. To me a splash is just as awesome as a custom theme and it's one of the best parts of 3DS hacks.

Other than that you can just hit start without ticking anything. I guess one could argue that it doesnt take long to tick in the Show nand or user string option. But at the same time it doesn't really do anything relevant. This is no longer the days where you had to be absolutely sure that you could update based on the user string. If this is such an important feature to the officials, why not just have it enabled by default then.

@Aurora Wright What do you think about this opinion, am I just being silly? : p

 

@MattKimura, you do know that you can set a custom version string, right?
