Required Reading
This is a manual version of finalizing setup, for when all other options have been exhausted and the script does not work.
What You Need
- The latest release of FBI (Both the 3dsx and the cia file)
- The latest release of Anemone3DS (the cia file)
- The latest release of FTPD (direct download)
- The 3.7.4 release of Checkpoint (Direct download)

- Create a folder named
3ds
on your sd card.- You may already have this from a earlier section in the guide.
- Place FBI.3dsx into the
3ds
folder on the sd card. - Create a folder named
cias
on the root of the sd card. - Place FBI.cia, Universal-Updater.cia, Anemone3DS.cia, ftpd.cia, hblauncher_loader.cia and Checkpoint.cia in the
cias
folder. - Create a folder named
payloads
in the luma folder on your sd card. - Copy godmode9.firm from the godmode9 zip file to the

folder. - Copy the gm9 folder from the godmode9 zip file to the root of your sd card.

If you do NOT boot into the Luma3DS configuration menu, custom firmware was not installed on your console. Join Nintendo Homebrew on Discord and ask, in English, for help |
Section III - Updating the System

- 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 this troubleshooting guide
Section IV - RTC and DSP setup
- Press (Left Shoulder) + (D-Pad Down) + (Select) at the same time to open the Rosalina menu

- If you do not boot into GodMode9, ensure that you copied godmode9.firm to the luma/payloads folder of your SD card and that the folders are not misnamed (e.g. playloads.)
- If you are prompted to create an essential files backup, press (A) to do so, then press (A) to continue once it has completed.
