Hi All,

I fished my 3ds out of my basement and want to start using it.

It's firmware is: V11.15.0-47U with Boot9Strap v1.3 & Luma3DS v10.2.1

What should I update first, second or 3rd and in what order? And how do I update these things? Sorry for the newb question.

Either way would work, you can either update the firmware first or update Luma3DS first, updating Luma3DS first would be more convenient.

Always update your CFW first because if you don't update CFW and update Firmware you can get errors on reboot until you update CFW.

after your CFW is updated now you can update anything you like.

As stated on the guide you only need to download latest version from github and copy the files to your sd card.
