==Instructions==

===Section I - Prep Work===

# Power off your device
# Insert your SD card into your computer
# Create the folder <code>sd:/3ds</code>
#* You may already have this from a earlier section in the guide.
# Place <code>FBI.3dsx</code> into <code>sd:/3ds/</code>
# Create the folder <code>sd:/cias/</code>
# Place <code>FBI.cia</code>, <code>Universal-Updater.cia</code>, <code>Anemone3DS.cia</code>, <code>ftpd.cia</code>, <code>hblauncher_loader.cia</code>, and <code>Checkpoint.cia</code> into <code>sd:/cias</code>
# Create the folder <code>sd:/luma/payloads/</code>
# Copy <code>GodMode9.firm</code> from the GodMode9 zip file into <code>sd:/luma/payloads/</code>
# Copy the <code>gm9</code> folder from the GodMode9 zip file to the root of your sd card
# Eject the SD card from your computer, then remove it
# Reinsert the SD card into your console

===Section II - CFW Check===

# Hold {{B|SELECT}}, and while holding {{B|SELECT}}, power on the console
#* If the check was successful, your console should have booted into the Luma3DS configuration menu
# Press {{B|START}} to save and reboot
# Power off your console
{{critical|text=If you do NOT boot into the Luma3DS configuration menu, custom firmware was not installed on your console. Join [https://discord.gg/C29hYvh the Nintendo Homebrew Discord] and ask, in English, for help}}

=== Section III - Updating the System===

# Update your console by going to System Settings, then “Other Settings”, then going all the way to the right and using “System Update”
#* Updates while using B9S + Luma (what you have) are safe
#* The updater may display a message saying “Your system is up to date” instead of updating. This is normal if you are already up to date; continue to the next section
#* If this gives you an error, set both your DNS settings and Proxy settings to “Auto”
#* If this still gives you an error, follow [[3dsguide:troubleshooting#finalizing-setup|this troubleshooting guide]]


=== Section IV - RTC and DSP setup ===

# Close '''System Settings'''
# Press {{B|L|Down|SELECT}} at the same time to open the Rosalina menu
#* If one of these buttons is broken, download this [[3dsguide:assets/config.ini|config.ini]] and put it in <code>sd:/luma</code>, replacing the existing one. This will change the Rosalina menu key combination to {{B|X|Y}}
# Select “Miscellaneous options”
# Select “Dump DSP firmware”
# Press {{B|B}} to continue
# Select “Nullify user time offset”
# Press {{B|B}} to continue
# Press {{B|B}} to return to the Rosalina main menu
# Press {{B|B}} to exit the Rosalina menu

=== Section V - CIA Installation ===

# Open the '''Activity Log'''
# Press {{B|L|Down|SELECT}} at the same time to open the Rosalina menu
# Select “Miscellaneous options”
# Select “Switch the hb title to the current app”
# Press {{B|B}} to continue
# Press {{B|B}} twice to return to the Rosalina main menu 
# Press {{B|B}} to exit the Rosalina menu
# Close '''Activity Log'''
# Reopen '''Activity Log'''
#* This should open the '''Homebrew Launcher'''
# Open '''FBI''' from the list of homebrew
# Select <code>SD</code>, then click <code>cias</code>
# Select the <code>Current directory</code> option, then choose to <code>Install and delete all CIAs</code>
# Close '''FBI'''
#* Six new applications should be on the home menu.

=== Section VI - NAND Backup and CTRNAND Luma/GM9 ===

# Power off your console
# Press and hold {{B|Start}}, and while holding {{B|Start}}, power on your console. This will launch GodMode9
#* If you do not boot into GodMode9, ensure that you copied <code>GodMode9.firm</code> into <code>sd:/luma/payloads/</code> and that the folders are not misnamed (e.g. luna, lumas, playloads, payload.)
#* If you are prompted to create an essential files backup, press {{B|A}} to do so, then press {{B|A}} to continue once it has completed.
#* If you are prompted to fix the RTC date&time, press {{B|A}} to do so, then set the date and time, then press {{B|A}} to continue.
# Press {{B|Home}} to bring up the action menu
# Select <code>Scripts…</code>
# Select '''GM9Megascript'''
# Select <code>Backup Options</code>
# Select <code>SysNAND Backup</code>
# Press {{B|A}} to confirm
#* The NAND backup process may take up to 20 minutes.
# Press {{B|B}} to exit to the main menu of '''GM9Megascript'''
# Select <code>Scripts from Plailect’s Guide</code>
# Select <code>Setup Luma3DS to CTRNAND</code>
# When prompted, press {{B|A}} to proceed
# Press {{B|A}} to unlock writing to SysNAND (lvl1), then input the key combo given
# Press {{B|A}} to continue
# Press {{B|B}} twice to exit '''GM9Megascript'''
# Hold {{B|R}} and press {{B|START}} to power off your console
# Insert your SD card into your computer
# Copy the contents of <code>sd:/gm9/out/</code> to a safe location on your computer
#* These files are critical backups and should be backed up to multiple locations (i.e. cloud storage)  if possible
#* The two SysNAND files are your NAND backup and can be used to revert your console to a working state if it is bricked by a software issue
#* The <code>essentials.exefs</code> file contains your console’s system-unique files and can be used to recover your data in the event of a hardware failure
# If you still have them, delete the two SysNAND files from <code>sd:/gm9/out/</code> from your SD card
#* The <code>essential.exefs</code> file is small and may be kept on your SD card for ease of access

<b>Information and Notes</b>
Here are some key combos that you should know:

*Holding {{B|SELECT}} on boot will launch the Luma3DS configuration menu.
*Holding {{B|START}} on boot will launch GodMode9, or if you have multiple payloads in <code>sd:/luma/payloads/</code>, the Luma3DS chainloader.
*By default, pressing {{B|L|Down|SELECT}} while in 3DS mode will open the Rosalina menu, where you can check system information, take screenshots, enable cheats, and more. This can be changed from the Rosalina menu.
**If you have a modified Luma config, this key combination may be {{B|X|Y}} instead.
*Holding {{B|START|SELECT|X}} on boot will make the notification LED show a color for debug purposes. See [[3DS:Boot9strap#LED_Status_Codes|here]] for what each color means.
