Please follow the following Guide on how to downgrade your 3DS to 2.1 and dump your Console Unique Key but be aware that if you use the wrong files, don’t follow the tutorial 100% correctly, flash a corrupt sysNAND image or your 3DS turns off while it messes with the sysNAND partition can brick your 3DS so double check that you have the correct files for your 3DS, follow the Tutorial as close as possible, checked your 3DS NAND backups and have your 3DS hooked up to a wall charger so it doesn’t accidently shut down. I am not responsible for any bricks that may occur during this processġ. RxTools doesn’t support Arm9LoaderHax just yet but support will hopefully come Soon™.ĭISCLAIMER: Any modifications to your 3DS are done at your own risk. So if you decided to finally switch to Arm9LoaderHax here is a Tutorial on dumping the OTP.bin, Installing Arm9LoaderHax with SafeArm9LoaderHaxInstaller and setting up AuReiNand to use Arm9LoaderHax. – Checks that stage1 and stage2 don’t exceed a maximum size. – Hashes the secret_sector, FIRM0 and FIRM1 to verify their integrity Sadly there’s no known way of validating the OTP on an Old3DS first install. – If you have a New 3DS and you’re doing a first install of A9LH, or you’re reinstalling from A9LH itself, it validates your OTP. – Checks that it’s able to encrypt FIRM partitions properly Other than that, it’s way safer than the original one, as it does the following checks: SafeArm9LoaderHaxInstaller loads all the needed files from the SD card (no more need to build console-specific installers), and it’s really fast. So what makes SafeArm9LoaderHaxInstaller different from the normal Arm9LoaderHaxInstaller. You will of course still need to downgrade your 3DS to 2.1 and dump your OTP.bin but as long as you follow the guide there should be no risk of bricking. At first, there was no real documentation but this soon changed and the first real guides for dumping your OTP.bin (Console specific keys), compiling the installer and installing Arm9LoaderHax got released and installing A9LH got a lot easier to install but there were still brick risks and many people continued to stay with their working entry point.īut now Developer AuroraWright released his SafeArm9LoaderHaxInstaller which makes installing the Arm9Loaderhax Payload to your 3DS 100% Brick risk-free (Of course if your 3DS turns off while installing the payload it can still brick but else there is no possibility of bricking anymore so always connect your 3dS to a charger while installing). After the release of Arm9LoaderHax to the public, many people were excited about it and tried it right away but the majority stayed with their working entry points because it was very risky.
