So how's the success rate on 2DS? Should I bother doing a hardmod dump first?
I have 2x 2DS and a N3DSXL. I want to beat up a 2DS first as its already beat to hell.
 
Now I just need to read up on rxTools for N3DS and how to install, this is completely new territory for me!!
 
Japanese New 3DS on 10.3 downgraded to 9.1 (used 9.2 files but it shows as 9.1) using Julian20's sysUpdater. Didnt format 3ds but kept trying using menuhax 2.1 and running ftbrony then sysupdater. Clean reboot after it was done and no black screen. Now to figure out to create an emunand in english.

I soft bricked. Managed to get into safe mode and updated back to 10.3
 
So I downloaded the CIA files and julians latest libkhax sysUpdater and i've done CRC and MD5 checks to make sure the files didn't corrupt, at the moment my N3DS XL 10.3E is on sysUpdater and ive clicked Y for downgrade but it isn't doing anything visually, is this normal?

EDIT:Still nothing, should i risk rebooting?

So... after running sysupdater, the 3ds had "an error occurred" that tells me to power off. I power off and back on. Nothing but blue light. I try to do recovery mode. Blue light. Removed sd card. Blue light. The system turns on but just the blue on light. Nothing else. Help?
 
After hundreds of tries getting that cia error, it successfully began to install cias, and then, it prints that error screen again.
Using julian's build with a new 3ds eur.
