Okay thanks. So ill probably go with the lower version 3ds. Additionally I will get a game which is on a list that states it will upgrade my 3ds to 4.4./9.2. For example Rayman Origins or Fantasy Petz for 4.4.

So first I get my Console's OTP, and after that I can either go to 4.4 or 9.2? Ill buy the according game ofc. So 9.2 would be the better choice right?

Thank you for the taking the time to answer my rather noobish questions, but that's just what i am in this field :>
But a gamecard will not update the browser. Better update to 4.5 and update to 9.2 with sysupdater.

you can't actually run the homebrew launcher on 4.4, not even with ninjhax 1.1b due to the browser being too old.

you would use something called rxTools pasta mode + sysUpdater as cia to go to 9.2.0-20.

My bad on that. you are absolutely right

I have an O3DS with 2.2.0-4e FW but browser OTP hack don't work. It makes glitchy screen.
This is the tutorial I tried: https://github.com/Plailect/Guide/wiki/9.2.0-Update-(Browser-OTP)
How can I dump my OTP?

Can I dump it with a SKY3DS and a NinjaCube rom?
According to https://github.com/Plailect/Guide/wiki/9.2.0-Update
Browser OTP is for 2.1. I believe it only works on that firmware.
So you can either buy a copy of Cubic Ninja (expensive) or get a game with a 4.x or 6.x update on it (cheaper) and update the 3DS using that, but you will need a DS flashcart to install the mset exploit once on 4.x or 6.x.

SafeA9LHInstaller shows a glitched screen
This happens occasionally, but the reason is unknown. The buttons will still work, but the screen will be glitched looking.

  1. Follow instructions as normal
    1. Press select and arm9loaderhax will be installed
    2. The console will reboot

Yes, you can. In fact, you have to--Cubic Ninja is the only known method of getting the OTP on that (short of upgrading to 9.2 and then downgrading to 2.1). Use the Plailect guide.

Note that this is not Ninjhax; it's a special Cubic Ninja method that directly gets the OTP.

Also, THE ORIGINAL POSTER SHOULD KNOW THIS. If you have 2.2 and you want to get the OTP, you will need Cubic Ninja. He didn't say he has Cubic Ninja, and none of the people telling him to get the 2.2 because of the OTP bothered to mention that this won't do him any good unless he has Cubic Ninja. So he's probably going to end up buying it and find that he's nothing he can do (except upgrade to 9.2 and downgrade to 2.1, which is no easier than doing it with the other machine).

Hi, yesterday I bought a SKY3DS card for my 2.2.0-4E old 3ds.
I installed Cubic Ninja on it and tried the tutorials with many tries but OTP.bin file never created on the SD.
Is it because of running Cubic Ninja from SKY3DS? What do you think?

Yes, this is the tutorial I followed. I tried all qr codes, reformatted sd and 3ds. Only 2.2 qr restart my system, other codes are freezing. *my 3ds is EU version.

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.
