Dont worry bro, common mistake, when you downgrade to 2.1 you can see that your content is still right there, (except a few games that the console somehow thinks its other games because... 2.1 old as shit).
you can also see this while doing region change, the content remains, but still a format is recommended, especially in old3ds, somehow the ram extended games crash if you dont format the console after region change.
if not mistaken (seriously, i think this is how it works but not really sure), crt transfer injects a nand, but retains the original secureinfo and movable.seed, that means the user data is still valid.
But the holy bible said:
Get kernel11 access
- If you are below version 11.0.0 or did an NFIRM downgrade earlier, do that by launching svchax (should finish almost instantly; may take many tries)
- If you are between 11.0.0 and 11.1.0, do that by launching waithax (should take between 20 minutes and an hour; this depends on device)
As you said, right now, fasthax only works on 11.2
So you can update and use the zoogie's safehax (it's safehax with fasthax implemented)
or use the version listed on 3ds.guide (that is, running waithax and then the clean safehax)
What to do is up to you though
That's what I'm doing.. Following the holy bible of Plailect, still..

What does that exactly mean? Will you elaborate for me?
Thanks!

I have a question !
My friends is on 11.2 O3DS, and i want to put him the menuhax.
When fasthax will be release, could he use menuhax & luma3DS directly ? Or do i need to tell him to downgrade to 9.2 ?
I mean, i saw that you say it would be useless to downgrade to 9.2 but it's with arm9loaderhax, if using only menuhax, it could work on 11.2 ?
For making this, it would be like :
- Inject fbi.cia
- Dump nand
- Install menuhax
- Start on Luma3DS
It would work on 11.2? That's my question :o Because menuhax maybe no longer works, and how menuhax & luma3DS could use safehax & fasthax? I mean menuhax start luma.3dsx and not safehax.3dsx & fasthax.3dsx, i am clear? :/

Ah, movable.sed! I knew it retained SecureInfo but forgot that one.
I haven't region changed since my original N3DS and the process was... complex back then.
But yeah, I get where I missed now, thanks.
Just use soundhax to enter homebrew launcher then launch Safehax+Fasthax from Zoogie's (this will boot Decrypt9 if you followed the steps) from there just follow the 2.1.0 CTR Transfer guide from Plailect's and follow the rest of the guide to install A9LH.
Right now, you can use fasthax on <11.2 (not compatible yet)
and waithax was fixed on 11.2
So I would say you cannot use both at the same time
there is absolutely no reason at this point to keep using menuhax+emunand, the arm9loaderhax installation right now is as fast and safe as its ever been.
9.2 is out of the picture now; we needed it for ARM9 and now we have ARM9 on 11.2.
The process is now:
- Put Decrypt9 on SD
- Run Safehax (and any prerequisites, but I think right now fasthax is built in?)
- Dump NAND
- 2.1 CTRTransfer
- A9LH
- Restore NAND
- Start Luma3DS (read: turn it back on because you have A9LH now and it's automatic)

I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer -
@
TwoSpikedHands:
Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?

Sicklyboy:
@TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one

@
Sicklyboy:
I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version

@
TwoSpikedHands:
@Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!

@
TwoSpikedHands:
I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though

The Real Jdbye:
@TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway -
@
The Real Jdbye:
and realistically they wouldn't
be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves -

do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files
) -

@The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
