I don't know if this is allowed but I'm cross posting my post from another thread.

I'm currently conducting an experiment with my o3DS with formatted SysNAND and H&S app restored. On its previous NAND, I've done all possible stuff that can be done on a CFW'ed unit like CIA installation, ROM hacks, save conversion, FreeShop access, etc. A NNID was also linked on its previous...
I'm glad that you successfully performed the mod. It's kinda late but I would like to say thank you for taking a photo of n3DS board. I will update the OP later for the n3DS section.
Regarding to the circuit drawing pens, I haven't tried one personally but as long as it doesn't have any...
Correct. For extra confirmation that these are the resistors that you need to bypass, connect a pair of earphones to the unit then perform a continuity test on both resistors. If you heard some noise or beep ( it depends if your multimeter is set to ohmmeter or continuity test), then you can...
Looks like the resistor-inductor pair for the audio output is located on your rear photo. Can you please measure the resistance of these two SMD parts that I marked? If it's around 25 ohms, then these are the resistors that you need to bypass. You can verify the connections of these resistors to...
Reporting a successful downgrade from 10.5U to 10.2U then downgraded again to 9.2U. The only problem that I encountered is I am unable to install menuhax after the 10.2 downgrade. Perhaps, it is a payload incompatibility after the 10.2 downgrade. Good thing I have OoT 3D and used OoT3dhax...
So far, I have 7 downgraded units, 0 soft bricks, 0 hard bricks.
Summary of each unit downgraded to 9.2U with MenuHax as the entrypoint:
1. Unit: Aqua blue o3DS
Original FW: 9.9U
Problems encountered: Black screen after downgrading.
Fix: Removal of SD card.
2. Unit: Black o3DS...
Successfully downgraded my O3DS from 9.9U to 9.2U using menuhax as the entrypoint! Although I encountered black screens before successful bootup. Thanks for this guide!
To those people who successfully downgraded their O3DS:
What's the MD5 of the package that you used? The MD5 of my package is 879f437d7c78f09ae565f79f5aa9c421.
EDIT: The package is 9.2
If my unit was damaged with this mod then why the hell I made this thread? I'm not wasting my time to create a thread about how I fucked up my unit. I already have this mod for over a year and nothing bad happened. No overheating, random reboots, freezing, BSODs, etc. The resistors removed are...
Network switch, two VM hosts, a raspberry Pi, wireless AP, Zigbee coordinator, and two NASes. 17 minutes, enough time to go "oh shit the power went out time to start turning everything off"
