Hello, in the last few months i have been seeing more and more CFW for 3DS and i was looking for a helpful hand in upgrading my 3DS to his most glorious installment! My New3DS XL (dunno if it has any impact) is currently in version 4.5 E8 and im looking for help in upgrading it to a newer version of firmware and learn how to use all types of applications in the 3DS. Is there any help thread for really old new3ds versions with a list of risks and advantages in updating its version?

Thank you for any feedback and I hope i can learn more from this community!

P.S. I have a gateway card with the last version!

Well i already learnt something new today! I didnt knew it was a Old 3DS XL, how can you know its a old or a new 3ds? Apart from the version that looks like it cant be 4.5.
So just following the 3ds Guide and install the right things correctly? What is safer the browser version or the no browser version for the 3DS guide?

Do you have another joystick/nub on the right side? If no, then you have an old school 3DS. The firmware version is anyhow too low to be anything but an old school version.

You need a DS flashcart to do the no browser version. If your firmware is 4.5.0-8, you should be able to do the browser exploit.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    also gonna install twilight menu in my r4 flashcard
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    One thing that just occurred to me.... The sound on the 2600 sucked less back then the harsh sound we hear now is from infinitely better speakers we have now, back when the 2600 was new speakers produced a almost muffled sound, like CRTs made old graphics look slightly better.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I wonder if I could recommend that to some emulation devs that perhaps the sound could use some smoothing out to simulate those old TVs
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think a few of the early systems could benefit from that, at least up to the 8 bit generation, by the 16 bit generation I think TVs had gotten a lot better in almost every way
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    i dont have an sd card adapter but I have an usb sd card adapter

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Try Wood firmware
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    For your R4
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's old but it's the best firmware out for DS stuff
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    it says it only works for the original R4, R4i Gold (r4ids.cn), R4iDSN (r4idsn.com) and Acekard R.P.G.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    nvm it does support mine
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    but why choose it over ysmenu @Psionic Roshambo?
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    good night
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Just give it a try, but honestly if you have a 3DS you can play DS games without a card just off the internal SD card
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Slightly slower loading but a bit more convenient
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
