I'm on my 6th attempt now. Should it be taking this long?

Not really, try this build

I just looked at that Plailect fork of safesysupdater. It looks a lot more promising and has some protections put it to keep it from crashing and resulting in a browserless 3ds. Nice. Might use this one myself since my friend is wanting me to downgrade and install aureinand a9lh on his n3ds.

Ran through downgrade which completed. I had to reboot manually at the end and now the 3ds only has a black screen on start up. Any ideas on what happened? hitting the power button brings up the sleep modes mssage but hitting home causes the system to freeze.

I get a message that an error has occurred and that I need to power down and restart the device. I've done this 3 times with the same result.

edit: what was your entry method in the first place to downgrade? what did you use to boot into homebrew menu essentially?

yeah had to reset to 10.7.

Any suggestions on a downgrade guide I can try?

You need oothax or cubic ninja. And just follow the normal guides

Lol. I know how to downgrade. Just asking which fork work best on 9.7 O3DS. I read that plaisysupdater bricked some devices.

I was linking it because of the downgrader not because it was a guide. Also every downgrader has bricked devices. Plaisyupdater has some fixes that safesysupdater doesn't.
