How to Install CIA with Homebrew Launcher 3DS

The Homebrew Launcher is a popular tool for running homebrew applications on your Nintendo 3DS console. One of the most common ways to install CIA files using this launcher is through the sysupdater feature. However, many users have reported issues with sysupdater failing repeatedly. In this article, we'll explore some common causes and solutions for these errors.

Why is Sysupdater Failing?

Before we dive into the solutions, it's essential to understand why sysupdater might be failing in the first place. One possible reason is that you've unlinked your NANDS and have emunand on the latest version. This can cause issues with accessing the eShop, which may delete your DLC. CIA files are just installers, and the actual games reside in `/Nintendo 3DS/title/` after they're installed. You're free to delete them once installed.

Common Errors and Solutions

Here are some common errors you might encounter when trying to use sysupdater:

* Error: FBI gives me this error DESCRIPTION_INVALID_SIZE

+ Solution: Make sure you have the correct version of rxTools installed.

* Error: menuhax stops working after changing theme with CHMM2

+ Solution: Try deleting `/rxtools` and copying your version onto `/` then remove the old one.

* Error: How do I install FBI/BBM/DevMenu to emunand?

+ Solution: Follow the instructions provided in this article.

Additional Tips

When using sysupdater, make sure you have the correct firmware.bin file in the `/sys` folder and the renamed firmware.bin file in the `data` folder inside `/rxtools`. You can use rxTools nightly, Cakes 138, or Reiland 3.2 for this purpose.

Installing CIA files using sysupdater with Homebrew Launcher 3DS may seem daunting at first, but by understanding the common causes and solutions of errors, you'll be able to overcome any obstacles that come your way. Remember to always backup your data before attempting to install any new software, and happy gaming!
