Tutorial Simple Guide to Downgrading your 3DS

[Seriel]

Damn this is... tricky.
Something is tripping it up, but what?

How many Blocks open on your 3DS/SD Card?

See that gets confusing. I have o3ds 10.3, what the difference??

If someone with this error is willing, could you format your 3ds. I understand no one would want to do this lol but maybe.

Don't do it. It can brick completely your n3ds (especially since you alerady had softbricks every time)

Difference here is that old one errases whole firmware before installing new one
New one errases just parts of firmware before installing each cia.

This way you have high chance of softbrick instead of proper hardbrick if you will have problem

How many Blocks open on your 3DS/SD Card?

Loads. Too many. Like 20GB.

Time to give it another try ! Last 3 attempts ended up in a soft brick , (the same everyone is getting , an error occurred, but I could get into recovery and upgrade again)

I'm gonna use a new entry point this time , Oot3dhax to be especific , I already formated my SD card and downloaded all the files again, let's see if I don't get a soft brick again

I'll try downgrading without the 0004001000022F00.cia (SAFE_MODE System Updater), I think I can't get a full brick if I leave SAFE_MODE unchanged.

If you get a softbrick theres no escape, it will keep happening.

Ok, guys, it booted like it should, but after 'Updates installed. Rebooting in 10 seconds' it don't reboot.

Wait for at least 10 mins, then try rebooting.

Anyone managed to get past the error:

titleException:
main.cpp:108: Result: 0xD900182F
Failed to get CIA file info!

Tried via Menuhax, Ironhax, OOThax and Browserhax with this error each time. Using the 9.2.0-20E(Full)_n3DS from the iso site with 102 files.

I have missed something, what's the difference between Steve's sysUpdater and TuxSH's ? Just stability ? Or is it the same ?

Ok, rebooted... and it seems it worked. Version is correct 9.2, everything seems to work... does it mean I succeed?!

 

[perkel]

Did anyone tried with @JustPingo FW on that site in form of .ttp ?
