It's extremely easy to upgrade an a9lh installation to B9S. Menuhax is very outdated, is more unstable, and is much slower. Also, how do you have Menuhax and A9LH installed at the same time?

I got three systems, one a9lh and two menuhax. all three run fast and stable. only difference is boot time/rate.

Payloads doesn't work in 7.1? I tried with .firm and .bin and nothing. I have the boot.firm in ctr nand. Also, I can access the luma configuration

EDIT: I put boot.firm in sd and it works again. What happened?

It currently does not. If I knew how to code that, I would implement it.

If anyone can point me in the right direction, that would be great.
Can't FBI access CTRNAND? I might be wrong, but you could check that.

I've just received a dual ips on sys 11.4 that was formatted. I got godmode9 working now. I need to be able to install FBI.. H&S inject failed.

I recently tried to update my arm9loaderhax to boot9strap using this guide: https://3ds.guide/updating-to-boot9strap
However, after installing the boot9strap using the SafeB9SInstaller I can't open the chainloader menu whenever I hold the start button when I boot the 3ds up. Any ideas on what might be happening?

Thanks!

Can you tell me what's inside your payloads folder?

GodMode9.bin and SafeB9SInstaller.bin

If it helps, my luma is version 7.1 and my 3ds is 11.4

Edit: I should also mention that I was able to access the chainloader menu before I ran the SafeB9SInstaller

You have to use the .firm version now. You can delete the installer.

Yeah, but the problem is that I cant finish the CTRNAND Luma3DS part of the guide since the chainloader fails and LumaUpdater still shows that I have arm9loaderhax

Edit: I'm stupid, did you mean the GodMode9.firm?
Edit 2: Holy crap, I'm so stupid! @zeldaism thanks for you're help!!

Did the installer say it was successful?
I don't have my 3ds on me to finish the guide up, but I totally skim over the part where it said to use .firm files instead of .bin files. So fixing that should work, I'll let you know whenever I get home tonight
