I only see messages from people who have downgraded their O3DS and N3DS but not on 2DS.

Do you know if I can do this on my 2DS? :unsure:

I Downloaded the 9.2.0 N3DS Files, got 102 cia files in total size of 149,543,616 bytes.
There is a way to confirm that i downloaded the correct files?
And which sysUpdater to use? there are a lot of versions of this(one installing the safe_mode first, the other i really dont know what they are doing)/

Will mention this again just in case people are interested.

USE TERACOPY TO TRANSFER ALL THE FILES YOU'RE GOING TO USE FOR THE DOWNGRADE TO THE SD.

It checks that every file is copied correctly with no corruption, which CAN happen when using windows explorer to copy files without you noticing. This could (theoretically) lead to a bad cia.

Best method would be to run a md5sum check on files on the SD card and match against md5sum checks on the source directory to ensure the files copied.

This one uses SULib instead of libkhax. Hopefully it will work now

Just to verify, this has a different set of instructions, right? When I load it up it says 'ARM11 Kernel Exploit' at the top and #1, #2, #3, #4, #5 all labeled down the side with information. Do I just wait for it to complete or is this not the right thing?
