This is a list of alternative methods to install custom firmware. These are often used if the main guide cannot be used for some reason. These guides either require older system versions, access to certain games or applications, or secondary devices which already have custom firmware.


==What You Need==
== Homebrew Launcher access ==
Some custom firmware installation methods first require Homebrew Launcher access.
