What version it running

daring mason Oct 4, 2024, 8:15 AM

#

version of the console?

umbral canyon Oct 4, 2024, 8:15 AM

#

Firmware

daring mason Oct 4, 2024, 8:16 AM

#

I have luma and godmode9

umbral canyon Oct 4, 2024, 8:17 AM

#

Go into system settings and see what version of the 3ds firmware your running

daring mason Oct 4, 2024, 8:18 AM

#

11.17.0-50j

umbral canyon Oct 4, 2024, 8:18 AM

#

Okay so follow this guide

#

https://3ds.hacks.guide/region-changing.html

Region Changing | 3DS Hacks Guide

A complete guide to 3DS custom firmware

#

You need to downgrade to 11.50

#

WARNING this makes you console unhackable⚠️⚠️⚠️

#

As in you can’t remove homebrew

#

Without bricking it

daring mason Oct 4, 2024, 8:21 AM

#

how would go about downgrading?

#

and you’re saying if I downgrade it’s possible to brick?

#

If you ever want to un hack it you can’t if you change the region

daring mason Oct 4, 2024, 8:23 AM

#

no I don’t want to unhack it, I jsut want to change the language

umbral canyon Oct 4, 2024, 8:24 AM

#

Okay so that will change the region and then you can change the language I think

#

I’ll double check

#

Or you could go into settings and see if it’s an option by default

daring mason Oct 4, 2024, 8:25 AM

#

let me see

umbral canyon Oct 4, 2024, 8:25 AM

#

Okay

daring mason Oct 4, 2024, 8:26 AM

#

nope don’t see it, and my 3ds is region unlocked already as I jsut tested a NA version of omega ruby

#

otherwise it wouldn’t have worked I don’t think

#

but it seems the language didn’t change for some reason

umbral canyon Oct 4, 2024, 8:27 AM

#

Okay

#

Well I’m settings there a language menu

daring mason Oct 4, 2024, 8:28 AM

#

hmm

#

#

this is where it would show up no?

umbral canyon Oct 4, 2024, 8:29 AM

#

Not on that page

#

The icon should be a book

daring mason Oct 4, 2024, 8:30 AM

#

yeah it’s not there

umbral canyon Oct 4, 2024, 8:30 AM

#

Like that

#

Huh

daring mason Oct 4, 2024, 8:30 AM

#

mine is a japanese 3ds

#

I doesn’t have it by default

umbral canyon Oct 4, 2024, 8:31 AM

#

Okay so I think the region switch should fix that

#

Or find a homebrew app to translate it

daring mason Oct 4, 2024, 8:41 AM

#

I don’t even think I switched regions, I think it just unlocked other regions

umbral canyon Oct 4, 2024, 8:41 AM

#

Yeah

#

That’s what luma does

daring mason Oct 4, 2024, 8:41 AM

#

so the only way to change it to english is to go back to 11.15?

umbral canyon Oct 4, 2024, 8:42 AM

#

daring mason so the only way to change it to english is to go back to 11.15?

Yeah

#

Then update again

daring mason Oct 4, 2024, 8:43 AM

#

is it safe to go back to 11.15?

#

or a tutorial on how to do so

umbral canyon Oct 4, 2024, 8:44 AM

#

I’ll look

#

#

That should let you change

#

ALSO I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU SCREW THIS UP OR FOR ANYTHING GOING WRONG

daring mason Oct 4, 2024, 9:02 PM

#

I decided to just stick it out and learn the system ui

#

it’s not that much of a hassle since the games and all the apps I have installed are english
