Hacking Need assistance setting this up....

Sounds easy enough to do, even for me, can I do what you wrote above BEFORE I download the new updated one?

How would you install that one? Unless you have 2 cia installers

Right ho. I've done all this now, is there any other features I could use that you guys think are useful?

I'd say move it ALL to sysnand, get custom themes and maybe even a boot animation! Also if you are feeling tedious edit text in your home menu!

When you say move all to sysNAND, would that make anything easier/safer/faster?. And I'm intrigued by custom text, as I already have a pokemon theme I downloaded a while back after setting up ReiNAND

It makes everything easier because no hassle of an emunand and extra files and all that, safer not really same amount of safe just that it's your main nand, always have a backup and you are good (if you have a recovery software for a key on boot of course) and it is faster because it doesn't have to fully live off of your SD card

Sounds brilliant, how easy is it for someone like me to sort out? and regardless of ease, is it possible there's a step by step help along the way?

Yeah it's not too hard to do I believe in part 5 of plialects guide that's when they do it but I'd ask other people to be safe

Would that be this http://prntscr.com/by714i ?

What's RedNAND? as I'm not sure, I've only ever known sys & emu NANDs

Rednand is just an emunand that takes up less space, don't worry and yeah that would be removing it but first you have to "flash it to sysnand which is just as easy as that if not easier

Right. I need a bit more assistance on this one. I've followed Vin's advice through PM, about trying to just have one cfw sysnand, and following the steps he told me, about backing up sys & emu, then restoring emu to sysnand, I've now booted up and I have a default background, and every game and app I had needs unwrapping, and my version is 11.0.0-33E. Is this correct before I start to use Phillect's guide to finalizing it so I'm only running one sysNAND.

Upon booting WITHOUT an sd, my DS just freezes, and doesn't load anything up.

These are the steps I did...

1. downloaded hourglass9
2. unzipped hourglass and renamed .bin file to start_hourglass
3. booted up my SD card in my computer
4. copied start_hourglass.bin to luna folder, then inside the payloads folder located in the luna folder.
5. unmounted my SD and placed it back in the 2DS
6. booted up and held start. hourglass is confirmed to be working
7. backed up sysnand using hourglass, selected the name nand.bin - successful
8. backed up emunand using hourglass, selected the name emunand3.bin - successful
9. restored emunand to sysnand, selected the name sysNAND.bin

Which brings me to now, when I say selected the name, I mean through moving the arrow keys to pick a name. In my SD card, I've now got emuNAND3, sysNAND & NAND, all the same size too
