## Cannot inject H&S on Gateway downgraded device
|
|
|
|
This is caused by Gateway implementing a very shoddy downgrade method which leaves two versions of each app on the system. One of them is unused, but it confuses the H&S inject system, causing it to inject into the wrong one.
|
|
|
|
1. Launch GodMode9 by holding (Start) during boot
|
|
1. Navigate to `[1:] SYSNAND CTRNAND` -> `title` -> `00040010`

|
|
+ **Old 3DS or Old 2DS EUR**: `00022300` -> `content`
|
|
+ **Old 3DS or Old 2DS JPN**: `00020300` -> `content`
|
|
+ **Old 3DS or Old 2DS USA**: `00021300` -> `content`
|
|
+ **New 3DS or New 2DS EUR**: `20022300` -> `content`
|
|
+ **New 3DS or New 2DS JPN**: `20020300` -> `content`
|
|
+ **New 3DS or New 2DS USA**: `20021300` -> `content`
|
|
1. Notice that there are two sets of app and tmd files, one set with uppercase extensions (`.TMD` and `.APP`), and one set with lowercase extensions (`.tmd` and `.app`)
|
|
1. While holding the (R) trigger, press (Y) to create a new directory
|
|
1. Press (A) to confirm the name `newdir` (it does not matter what the folder is called)
|
|
1. Press (A) to unlock SysNAND (lvl1) writing, then input the key combo given
|
|
1. Press (B) to decline relocking write permissions if prompted
|
|
1. Press the (L) trigger on each of the uppercase extension files (`.TMD` and `.APP`) to mark them
|
|
1. Press (Y) to copy the files
|
|
1. Navigate to `newdir`
|
|
1. Press (Y) to paste the files
|
|
1. Select "Move path(s)"
|
|
1. The uppercase extension files will have been moved to the `newdir` directory
|
|
1. Press (Start) to reboot your device
|
|
1. Retry the H&S injection
|
|
1. If this still doesn't work, move the uppercase extension files back to the `content` folder, then move the lowercase extension files to the `newdir` folder, then retry the H&S injection
