Since my Japan N3ds downgrade went great I just bought a brand new Hyrule edition N3ds XL on 9.9U just waiting for the new safer downgrade program to be release.

Edit: Had to update to 10.3 to use the internet browser thank god I did before nintendo dropped 10.4

I would risk the upgrade as you can return the 3ds if you brick it, assuming you got it from a store with a return policy.

once 10.4 comes out, soft bricks will be stuck upgrading to 10.4, no redos after that.

Here is what i did. I downgraded my 3ds from firmware version 10.3 europe to 9.2 europe using this guide:

https://gbatemp.net/threads/simple-guide-to-downgrading-your-3ds.407888/

Then I installed a custom firmware to launch on coldboot following this guide:

https://gbatemp.net/threads/tutorial-setting-up-9-0-9-2-n3ds-xl-for-

Everything worked out fine on a N3DS, no issues what-so-ever. I didn't format my system before downgrading either.

(I also don't take responsibility if something happens to someone who follows those links)

Successfully downgraded my European N3DSXL from 10.3-9.2. Although I had the cia error but deleting both updates and sysupdater folders and then putting them back on the SD card fixed it.

Downgraded successful from 9.9 to 9.2 .Currently doing backup of sysnand using emunand9. I just started emunand9 from homebrew and then i selected dump sysnand as nand.bin . Is this the right way to proceed ?

That or use the gateway menu to do a nand dump. Either should work without any problems.

Just going to post this video, It's not my tutorial but after trying countless times to get it working I followed what this guy did in his video, including the db files part and the mashing b out of ftpony.

Following his steps it worked after 2 attempts. I also double checked the cia update files were correct for my system (europe) and they were in the updates folder on root.

Maybe I just got lucky, but I seriously lost count of my attempts before finding the video.

I bit the bullet and downgraded my Hyrule N3DSXL from 10.3 to 9.2 with Julian's sysUpdater. Everything went fine, shows 9.2, browserhax works, menuhax works, but I have the situation where I can't install non-legit CIAs with FBI.

    the legal drinking age here in the US is 21, as some of you may know, but i think either it should be 18 or the age you're an adult should be 21.
    +1
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    and i know what you may be thinking, "why become an adult at 21? doesn't that mean that banging an 18 year old would be illegal?"
    first of all, being in a relationship with someone who's 18 is technically ok, as long as it started when they were 18, but the age gap is still weird depending on how old you are. besides, the age of consent differs between different states
    +1
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    also my reasoning for adult age being 21 is because the reason that's the drinking (and now smoking) age is because it "gives them more time to think rationally and not drive drunk"
    so you should have that extra time to mature and think rationally before going to serve in the military or vote

  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    tl;dr the "adult" age and the legal drinking age (and voting age) here in the US should be the same

    It's all good no one pays attention to the law anyway lol
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What about making kids wait till 18 or 21 to drive? And yea is messed up, you can join army and die for your country at age 18, but you can't drink alcohol or smoke a cig til 21, is ridiculous

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    If someone is in the military they should be allowed to smoke and drink at 18.... Would help drive recruitment lol

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    We all know they do and will anyways. I think laws prevented them only pushes them to illegally do it. Even tho if was legal, most prob wouldn't even bother. Not a big deal or risque if its legal, no fun.

    That's why some kids don't mind having a rap sheet or two just so they never get drafted
    +2
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    also, i think the voting age should match the adult and drinking ages too, because by the logic of giving them time to mature and think rationally so they don't drive drunk, then they should also have that time to mature and think rationally so they can think for themselves
