I am getting a 2ds and I heard it will be on firmware 6.0. But I don't know what CFW to use all I want to do is install cias on to emunand (obviously). But I am looking for whatever is the fastest and easiest to install.
Also is it a possible my 2ds will come on something above a cfw compatible firmware?

The obvious choice for old3DS/2DS is rxTools, there's no comparison between it and the competition.

It's possible, but incredibly unlikely.

If it did come with 9.3+, you'd be the first person here to report it.

I'll tell you the best thing you can do:
*Create a NAND Backup and copy it to your computet.
*Install emunand
*Install rxTools
*Inject FBI and install sysupdater
*Use sysupdater in DEV MODE to update system nand to 9.2
*Set up autoboot themehax + autoboot rxTools
*Update emunand to 10.1 using system settings update feature

With all these things you'll be able to launch rxTools into emunand from coldboot, just by powering up your 2DS.

I have done all this, here is a little video that shows the end results:

    It's a genuinely great manga.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    too bad it never got an anime adaption, even in the form of OVA since a tv series would be too censored for the manga's material.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    and yeah, great manga.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    no idea why it would be censored tbh, it has nothing to explicit
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:

  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    we talk about same japanese tv that censors shit like teenage characters smoking
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:

    actually anime have also toned down fanservice a lot at the last 2 decades. when was the last time you saw nipples in anime that isnt hentai?
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    in quite a few, once the uncensored version releases
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    also seeing smoking at media wont make me want to smoke
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    even at "uncensored" home releases they still show no nipples with few, rare exceptions
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    It makes it seem cool, that's why smoking

    comercials were banned here in the 90s.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    even ecchi manga dont show nipples nowadays
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    I'm reading several that do atm. x'D
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    even it looks cool, i still hate smoking and i always hated smoking
