Wow, i downgraded, it said rebooting. It rebooted to a black screen, I rebooted again, another one, tried recovery mode, no dice. I was about to throw my 3DS, because I figured brick. I took out the SD, and the home menu booted up. Hurray, 9.2, sadly only 4gb SD card!

Time to buy a new bigger SD card! That black screen was fucking mean!

Did it, now I'm 9.9 -> 9.2. But when rebooted, I got the black screen. Now my system will only turn on when my SD card is removed. What can I do?

Did you put in another SD card or just take out the one that was in?

How long should it be taking at "Getting CIA file informations..."? I just clicked Y like a minute ago and it's currently at that stage. (N3DS small 10.3 attempting to go to 9.2)

I got the update to install but after the reboot attempt my N3DSXL is bricked. I'm trying to boot into recovery mode but nothing comes up (I can do it on my original models). How screwed am I?
