3DS 4.5 - 9.2 Downgrade for 3DS only

You need a Gateway card for this!!!

4.5-9.2 downgrade instructions:
1. Copy the gateway launcher.dat and the gateway.dg file onto the root of your 3DS SD card.
2. Turn off wifi and open the 3DS Internet Browser. Enter settings and delete cookies.
3. Restart 3DS
4. Turn wifi on and open the 3DS Internet Browser. Click URL and enter go.gateway-3ds.com
5. Navigate to the backup NAND option and create a backup of your NAND. This is important if you ever desire to return to your previous FW.
6. Power off your 3DS by holding the power button. Place the SD card into your computer and copy the NAND.bin somewhere safe. I've included a folder for your backup in this torrent. Be sure to copy not move the backup as it is required on the SD card to complete the downgrade.
7. Put the SD card back into the 3DS and  redo steps 2-4.
8. Navigate to the downgrade option (far right) and start the downgrade

*NOTE* This process will not work on 2DS.
To restore your NAND backup enter the gateway menu again and this time when the option downgrade is highlighted simply hold up on the d pad when you click it. It will restore from the NAND.bin on your SD card. If you are unable to use the browser exploit after your downgrade you must own a NDS flash card such as a supercard dstwo to install the profile exploit. This exploit is included in the torrent.

I am not responsible for any damage done to your 3DS system. Do this at your own risk. I have only tested the USA downgrade as I do not own any other region 3DS systems.
