A9LH Black Screen after DSiware Downgrade #570

Closed BuffMK2 closed 7 years ago

BuffMK2 commented 7 years ago

Hi, this guide is amazing but i ran into an issue and cant seem to solve it(Someone save me).

I have: 2DS with arm9haxloader(from the guide) N3DS(11.1.0-34)

goal: install arm9haxloader on my N3DS(11.1.0-34) via DSiware Downgrade.

issue: Selecting SafeA9LHInstaller in homebrew gives me blackscreen.

What I did: Followed the DSiWare Downgrade Guide via steelhax(no problem, kernel and firm both show up as 2.50-11) Then it directed me to Part 3 because i dont need OTP since I have N3DS. I did all the Prep work in Part 3(Section 1). Then in Part 3(Section 2), I get into homebrew via Steel Diver: Sub Wars. I try to lunch the SafeA9LHInstaller and it gives me blackscreen.

Let me know, if you need more information.

Thank you, Matt

From DSiWare Downgrade Page: Section VIV - Flashing 3DS #2's firmware "Select "Downgrade FIRM to 10.4" and confirm to flash the 10.4.0 firmware bin to 3DS #2"

I am in 10.4. I been following the guide

You're certain you have all the needed files in /a9lh/?

BuffMK2 commented 7 years ago

these are my files in a9lh: firm0.bin firm0_100.bin firm1.bin payload_stage1.bin payload_stage2.bin secret_sector.bin

Did you downgrade to 9.2 like you were told? It doesn't work from higher versions.
