More noobish questions:

1: I've been off the internet for a few days, is downgrading somewhat brick-proof?

2: Do I have to decrypt roms to play them (on 3ds)?

3: Where can I find documentation on the head tracking feature?

1. Nope, there is a small chance use safesysupdater but there is still a chance of a brick.
2. Nope just install the CIA.
3. It's included in the newest starter pack update the /3ds folder with the new starter kit. If you dont have it.

*downgrade
Nope as soon as you downgrade i would recommend formatting your 3ds, get the starter kit, install browserhax them themehax them go to a CFW guide.

It says to update to 10.3 because it reportedly has less bricks.

10.3 isn't a CFW exploitable version.

Update then downgrade I mean.

You can do that.

 

[YugamiSekai]

You can do that.

But do I have to delete menuhax? And can I do that from 3ds or delete the files somewhere else?

No, you don't why would you want to?

 

[YugamiSekai]

No, you don't why would you want to?

I thought it would break. And is formatting after downgrading mandatory?

No, just recommended. Also after you downgrade, menuhax wont work as it has a 10.3 payload and you will be on 9.2. You don't need to delete it but you have to reinstall it through browserhax.

Well thanks, I feel better about downgrading. About to update now.

Go for it.

I tried booting into menuhax with L but it went to the home menu. Did I do something wrong?

 

[muskieratboi]

You mean after the downgrade?

 

[YugamiSekai]

You mean after the downgrade?

No. I just had to reinstall menuhax. When using safesysupdater, is it the same instructions when using sysupdater?

Yes.

Sorry for all the questions (this should be the last one) but can it brick my system?

Homebrew apps CAN brick your system if you use the Gateway .3dsx app (yes there's one), FBI, sysUpdater (I think that's what it is) in the wrong way. Also don't mess with anything not meant for your system version. Usually all the Pirating apps are for 9.2 (rxTools is one)
