3DS CFW+Homebrew Thread

INSTALLATION GUIDE
plailect.github.io/Guide/
>How do I get homebrew and prepare for CFW?
First, quit being such a massive faggot, and then find your firmware version below. Then see smealum.github.io/3ds/, unzip the starter kit to your SD card, and follow instructions to setup the Homebrew Launcher.
>9.0 or under:
Find a way to load Decrypt9 on your version (MSET For 4.x or 6.x, most likely browser otherwise): github.com/Plailect/Guide/wiki/Part-1-(Decrypt9) then proceed normally.
>9.0-9.2:
Follow the guide as normal. On New 3DS, you can now install arm9loaderhax without downgrading past 9.2 through the homebrew launcher.
>9.3-9.8:
Use browserhax, optionally install menuhax as a more permanent solution. Downgrade as normal then proceed normally.
>O3DS 9.9-10.3:
If you have the update nag that prevents you from using the web browser, change your system's date to January 1st, 2000 at 00:00, initialize savedata, and immediately use browserhax. Don't exit the browser using the home button, or you'll have to reinitalize save data.
>N3DS 9.9-10.1:
If you have the nag, you can beat it by opening the web browser as fast as you can from boot before the update nag kicks you out. Bookmark the applicable browserhax link, use as quickly as possible. You'll have about 30 seconds. Install menuhax immediately afterwards.
>10.3-10.7:
Browserhax and menuhax are usable. The phailect guide might say 10.7 can't use broswerhax but it can.
>11.0-11.2:
Running CFW is not as straightforward
Downgrading is now possible with hardmod, or with software ONLY IF YOU ALREADY HAVE A 3DS WITH CFW OR STEELHAX. plailect.github.io/Guide/dsiware-downgrade ← This may soon be updated to allow downgrades without a second 3ds, ie steelhax
Post a reliable guide for using steelhax ITT and it will be put into the OP for the next thread until Phailect guide has been updated
If you're interested in doing a hardmod, a guide is available here: gbatemp.net/threads/tutorial-noob-friendly-nand-dumping-2ds-3ds-3ds-xl-n3ds-n3ds-xl.414498/ Downgrade from 11.0 with a hardmod is outlined in the A9LH Guide.
Homebrew is accessible on 11.x

Frequently Asked Questions
>CFW??!1?¿?
Luma3DS is the most popular CFW and supports A9LH, as well as having a number of features such as Region Free, Language Emulation, Automatic AGB_FIRM patching, Automatic flash cart unblocking, Auto-Update blocking, RO Patching (Special features for romhacks) and more.
Reinand appears to still be worked on, but the creator has indicated that they want to work privately from now on. Reinand also supports Region Free, Auto-Update blocking, RO Patching, and more.
rxTools is now out of date and lacks support for newer features as well as no longer under active development. If you have been using it previously, it is advised to switch.
All CFWs support both O3DS and N3DS.
For additional features such as cheats, save states, screenshots, and screen capture(NEW 3DS ONLY), use your CFW of choice to launch NTR CFW.
For more detailed info about each CFWs feature set, go here: gbatemp.net/threads/wip-faq-what-cfw-is-best-for-me.428509/
Do further, thorough research on your own. Ask smart questions here.
>Is updating my emuNAND safe and/or can I update on A9LH?
Yes, you should always stay up to date.
>Installing Luma3DS/Updating from rxTools
Using the links below, get the latest version of luma. copy the arm9loaderhax.bin to the root of your SD card, go into the hax folder and copy the 3ds folder to your SD. If you're using a bootmanager simply make an entry in the boot.cfg. This will allow you to load luma through the homebrew launcher.
On first boot, hold select to open the menu, and check "show current nand in system settings" as well as "enable region emulation", and if you like the gba boot screen you can enable that as well. Copying arm9loaderhax.bin does not install arm9loaderhax, this is simply where the cfw is stored.
>What's a .CIA?
CIA stands for CTR Importable Archive, where CTR stands for the codename of the 3ds. In simpler terms, a .cia is simply an installable package you can launch from your homescreen.
>What's emu/sysNAND?
sysNAND is the core system files that your 3DS uses, including the Home Menu and system titles such as the browser and system settings. emu/redNAND are a cloned version of this that runs off of your SD card instead of the built-in chip on your 3DS.
>What is Arm9LoaderHax?
Arm9LoaderHax or A9LH is an entrypoint for booting into emu or sysNAND. The advantages of A9LH include 100% boot rate, and execution before boot. If you install A9LH, you can get rid of emuNAND and load an updated sysNAND to install .cia.
The installation requires a one-time downgrade to 2.1.0 in order to dump OTP (One-Time Programmable console-specific information). A9LH does still support booting of emuNAND if need be, but the most popular option is to update sysNAND and use it.
A9LH protects from softbricking once installed, as it can load before the 3ds boots and flash a backup nand image. If you're familiar with the Wii, it's similar to BootMii or Priiloader.
Menuhax vs. A9LH: archive.is/SsDyf
>Can I upgrade SD Cards/Can I use 64GB+ SD Cards?
The 3DS can support any SD card formatted FAT32. You can do this on your 3DS using emunand9, or you can use tools like this: gbatemp.net/threads/how-to-use-a-64gb-micro-sdxc-in-your-sdhc-compliant-flash-cart.335912/
Yes, you can transfer your files to a larger SD if you desire. On A9LH you need only copy your files to the larger SD. If you're on emuNAND there's a more detailed process:
First, backup all your old SD Card's files, and make an emunand dump with Emunand9. Hit eject, insert your new SD card, go to SD Format Options, and do format (minsize) if using rednand. If unsure, just do format (emunand default). This creates a partition on your New SD and formats it correctly.
Restore your emunand onto your new SD card and then copy all of your files off, you've successfully upgraded your SD.
>Can I play original DS Roms?
Not without a flashcart. SD Loading is on the way, but there's no real expected timeline. Asking WHEN doesn't make it come faster.
>What Flashcart should I get?
The cheapest and best option is the r4i 3ds: modchipsdirect.com/r4i-3ds-r4ds-wood.html Avoid r4i-SDHCs. Their firmware is on a timer and the card will brick itself in a year so you have to buy a new one. The Menu is slow, and if you get a replacement for it it causes compatibility issues.
>My issue is covered in this FAQ at all!
Check 3dshack and Gbatemp to see if someone has had your issue and as fixed it. If you're going to post your issue here INCLUDE AS MUCH DETAIL AS POSSIBLE. You're only opening yourself to shitposting if you don't.

ROMS WHERE
Disregard .3ds rom dumps - this is a format for flash carts and citra only.
Downloading roms directly from nintendo is possible, and recommended as a first approach before visiting external sources, excluding the obvious such as romhacks.
If you would like to download roms direct from nintendo's servers on your 3ds you can use freeshop: github.com/Cruel/freeShop/releases After installing, open freeshop, go to Settings>Update and enter 3ds.titlekeys.com/downloadenc or visit 3ds.titlekeys.com on your computer and click the QR button, then Scan.
on your PC you can also generate FBI-Scannable QR codes by visiting 3ds.titlekeys.com/ and clicking on a title, then clicking the generate QR button.
3dsiso.com/ and 3dschaos.com/ are the most commonly used sites for finding roms.
You can search for titles on 3ds.titlekeys.com and you can view the completion here: 3ds.jdbye.com/ (Non-VC only right now) If you own a game on eShop that's marked in red for your region, consider submitting it.
>Can I dump a cart to a .cia?
Previously dumping carts was a pain in the ass, but decrypt9 can now dump carts directly to cia easily, go to Gamecart Dumper > Dump to CIA.
>Can I convert a .3ds to a .cia?
Yes, with Decrypt9 simply go to Content Decryptor > NCCH/NCSD > NCCH/NCSD to CIA.
>How does 3ds.titlekeys.com/ get keys?
The encTitleKeys site most commonly used is dependent on user submissions. If you own an eshop title that isn't available on 3ds.titlekeys.com/ you can add it yourself for all to download.
Using Decrypt9, go to titlekey options, then titlekey decrypt for your respective nand. This will dump a decTitleKeys.bin, which is different than an encTitleKeys.bin. you can submit it to the website, where it will be added.
You can create an encTitleKeys dump using Titlekey Dump. The site doesn't take these, but the file will be usable for anyone with freeshop or ciangel.
>I'm a citra user and can you tell me where to find unencrypted roms?
Not here.

He changed the domain of the guide again. Github redirects here, but just so people know and aren't getting concerned there's redirecting.

From last thread, youtube.com/watch?v=fTAUbPArcI0 this frog managed to do it but how dependent is this downgrade on the hardmod?

so i installed arm9loader + Luma without any issues. how do i recover or format all the cia's from my former Emunand. i'm so lost right now.

You did back up your emuNAND right? Well, take that .bin and use Decrypt9 to restore the sysNAND with it, with the keep AH9L option.

fuck it. im too stupid. i'll just erase it and start fresh. fuck it we'll do it live.

Wasted Hitler dubs imo.

Why is my System Transfer taking such a long time?

It always takes a long time.

oops unintentional sage, bump

Is it safe to get Sun and Moon from the freeshop?

Oh. Well, I got timed out. I just cleared some data, so it might be a little faster now.

Yes.

System Transfer speed is pretty abhorrent, 'specially between an O3DS and N3DS. I got a New 3DS down from 11.2 successfully and I think the downgrade took around 16 hours because I had two 64GBs to transfer. I took my phone with me that I was using as a hotspot for them thinking the local connection would carry them through, they did a fucking internet check at the very end of the data transfer and the whole thing was queered. Lucky I could do it again, didn't count against the 7-day thing.

So I just found out there's no way to perform a downgrade on 11+ unless you get your NMFIRM to a specific version first, should I wait for slowhax or do an xfer now?
(I already have a hacked N3DS but the one I'm trying to hack right now is an O3DS and the only other one I have access to me and is hackable doesn't belong to me)

I've been using NTR for streaming and I believe the "debugger" mode makes it get caught on loading screens if you change games. I don't know how to disable the "debugger" setting. I've tried uninstalling it to no avail. How do I turn of the debugger setting?

the retail copy of pokemon sun from billy states ver 0.0.0.

is this safe? i thought the retail version was 0.0.37

Debugger setting? For NTR or for Luma? Luma you hold start while loading it, I think.

Is there anyway to get the streetpass plaza mini-game dlc using cfw?
I've checked the freeshop update/dlc page but it doesn't show anything available.

NTR, I use NTR selecter. I select debugging setting and it says debugging enabled, but pressing it again just says "debugging has already been enabled" and I don't know how to turn it off.

anons, pls

I've no idea, but here's what I did:
-Had the 0.0 one.
-Never went online ovor even turned the online button on.
-Waited for game to actually come out.
-Deleted it from system menu, saving backup copy of save.
-Installed "legit" one from freeshop.
-Save is safe.
-Still don't go online because I really don't need to and don't want the risk.

Took a while to download from freeshop but it is worth it if it stops a ban.

i was hoping to not have to redownload everything through freeshop they wifi here is shit

ah, fuck it. i'll look for another cia

Why isn't Chibi robo zip lash on freeshop? Wasn't it released digitally? I can only find US cias, isn't there an EU one?


you have to find the cia, check 3dsiso

3dsiso a shit.
Use 3dschaos

i seriously doubt there exists a router bad enough to bottleneck a 3DS specially when it's running a program that can't even come close to reach the 3ds' maximum speed.
with a great multiple antenna router besides the 3ds and a 50mbs up/down fiber connection i only get 170~kBps on ciangel and for some reason freeshop sits at 70kBps

Both a shit.
3DSISO is autists.
3DSChaos is furries.


O3DS is capped at 600kb/s due to hardware.
Not sure if N3DS fixed this, but I doubt it.
As for those low speeds, I'd double check your router settings, things like QOS, blocked IPs (Nintendo's servers) or stop the torrent of gay porn.

Fag, I bet you kiss girls and stuff

Is there any downside to using a N3DS opposed to an O3DS? I was thinking about upgrading, but I want to make sure I'm not losing out on anything cfw related.

There are no downsides.

No downsides whatsoever, you actually get more use out of a N3DS as a pirate than you do as a normal owner. Can overclock any game instead of a small handful, is the biggest feature, along with Super Nintendo VC injects (sadly SuperFX isn't supported by either homebrew emulators or Nintendo's VC emulators so no Star Fox, Super Mario RPG or any Kirby games).

Once you have CFW installed it's strictly better. The 9.2 downgrade is a little more finicky on a N3DS (you're very likely to get a partial downgrade) but then installing al9h is easier, so it balances out.

You have to remove the backplate to get to the SD card which is annoying as fuck to do.

is it worth buying a n3ds for priracy wjen you already have an o3ds?

You can pirate a few more games (Xenoblade and a shitty Binding of Isaac port basically), you get SNES injects, and you can force higher clock-speed on any game you feel like so MGS3D's hiccups are less noticeable and The Boss's fight doesn't lag to holy hell for instance.

Strange, I used freeshop to uninstall my Streetpass updates since it broke, reupdate it and install the DLC just fine.

FUG

Aw, fuck, that sucks. I wonder why the process is so goddamned finicky, it worked for me with no problems.

Any word on the 002 unban without using a second 3ds?

Any word of downgrading from 11.1 without a second 3ds?

I am waiting to homebrew my 11.0 3DS before I can homebrew my 11.1 Nu3DS. I haven't even performed a system transfer yet. Why do you have to wait one week after failing a system transfer?

I got a n3ds with 9.6. Followed the guide (3ds.guide/) till downgrading.
But whatever i do i can not boot into homebrew while holding the bottom d-pad.
I'll get the white pattern at the top screen but the bottom one remains black. Any ideas?

I can boot into homebrew via browser. Is it possible to downgrade with that or do i need to boot into it?

You can downgrade via the browser, yes. Booting just makes it easier and faster.

Thanks for the fast answer. Trying it now.

Thanks, worked perfectly.

Glad to hear it worked.

I got a 3DS coming in the mail by Wednesday, and I picked up a copy of Freakyforms today in preparation. What I'm curious about is whether or not the 3DS has auto-updates, and if I need to worry about that when I connect my internet momentarily to download that one DSi game. I know on the Wii U, for example, there was a certain DNS you had to enter, but I'm not seeing any information about this on any of the mentioned guides.

The 3DS auto-downloads update data, but doesn't actually do anything with it unless you accept a nag to update. You do however need to be on current firmware to access the eShop.

That's good to hear. Thank you.

How do I make sure a .cia game wont get me banned? Kinda scared of getting banned after the whole ordeal of Sun and Moon.

Like right now I am downloading Dragon Ball Fusions but idk if I should install it.

Creating the health and safety dumb, using the guide from 3ds.guide/installing-arm9loaderhax , keeps failing.

No idea what happens. What do I do?

Far as we know the only pirated game that's ever gotten you banned has been S/M. There were people playing Monster Hunter Generations pre-release with no repercussions; chances are the only reason Nintendo even gives a shit is because it's Pokemon, an extremely high seller.

But people were playing the Japanese release right? So it was technically out.

Also if you played S/M when the ban was happening but strictly offline, then you should be good right?

So I am trying to get the Homebrew install done and I get to this point: 3ds.guide/get-started-(new-3ds-usa) However my friend told me I "skipped steps" and linked me to this instead 3ds.guide/homebrew-launcher-(browser) I am running 11.0 and I don't see it on there at all. Is that right

Bah, the R4 cards in the OP link are out of stock. Any other places I should buy from, or just wait for them to restock?

I only have Ver. 11.0.0-33U, and don't want to hard mod- so I figure this will hold me over while I wait.

I think there was a review copy dumped that people were playing with pre-release but I don't remember.

S/M bans are spotty and with so many stories it's hard to tell what's true and what's not. Some people report just having it installed was enough to get them banned, some people report they played it offline entirely but got banned, some people report going online and trading quite frequently with no repercussions.

So should I wait until its on the freeshop as the safe bet?

So new problem started but with a different 3ds.
I had my o3ds with rxtools / emuNand that got banned.
Did 3ds.guide/ for armloaderhax and got throught it without problems.
Now i'm in the menu, reinstalled the tickets and i'm unable to check my friendslist (mii created), miiverse or going to the eshop.
I get no errors. Only black screens on eshop and (freezing) screens on fl and miiv.

I have backups for all my NAND's, friendcode and moveable. In case they're needed.

It's already on there. It's been out for like a week now.

It's already on there, but I have no idea if you'd be banned or not downloading it from there. Honestly I'd buy it if you really want to be safe.

Im not seeing it on the freeshop I been searching for it but I aint seeing it? Its called "Dragon Ball Fusion" isnt it?

Oh, sorry thought you were talking about Sun/Moon.

It's on 3dschaos

I already got it from 3dsiso but I thought someone said they got it from freeshop.

Would you anons consider 8 gigs overkill for s micro sd going in an r4i?

No.

Definitely not. Some of the later DS games got to be pretty large, I wouldn't even call 16gb overkill. IIRC the fourth Professor Layton game was half a gig.

It won't, you need cfw to unblock flash carts

Thank you. That saved me from a terrible mistake.

Naw, overkill would be something like 128GB. I remember running out of room pretty quickly on a 4GB microSD, even with just DS games.

I need an archive link to the previous thread to see if anyone answered my question.

What was it? Don't know shit about making archives but I have it opened in another tab.

last line of last op post.

Then you would be totally fine. The banwave they did actually revealed that they cannot distinguish legitimate cartridges from .cia's because they banned literally everyone who was connecting, even people with actual carts.

I've been playing the game since Lurantis leaked it and I've been going online since launch day and have had no issues. I did switch over to the eshop version just in case there's some lingering issue on Lurantis's cia, but honestly even then it would likely be fine.

Actually reading on it it was released for USA Nov 22nd so I should be fine. Thought I was gonna end up playing before release date.

Many thanks.

Well fuck me, if I'd known raising the buffer speed on Socketpunch would make the download faster I'd have done that ages ago. Raised KB/s buffer to 512 and now it goes at a bit over 1MB/s which is about the speed at which it installs if the file's actually present on the SD.

Whoops, make that a buffer size of 1028. It was at 512 just when I was piddling with it, but no immediate results discouraged me.

i put mine at 8192

Put mine that high but speed kinda capped at 750KB/s~850KB/s compared to where it was at before. Guess I gotta find a sweet spot with this, too high and diminishing returns but too low and I'm unnecessarily capping myself.

Here is a screencap of my post. It didn't get a reply.

...

And also, I did manage to grab a $99 New 3DS, but I read in the last thread that at the moment they're unhackable.

I'd just start fresh. and the $99 dollar 3ds is hackable. Whoever said it wasn't is lying. All current firmwares are hackable with DSIhax.

Got A9LH on the O3DS?
Follow the guide again and do a DSiDowngrade.
I haven't been following the DSi hax, so they may of taken down all of the usable games. Need another user to confirm.

If all goes well, new single console hax come out in December.

Legend of Exidia should still be up on the eShop and it can be used for the DSi transfer.

Alright, so it's a good size if I don't intend on downloading pokemon?

8GB should do you fine for a DS flashcart.

I don't think the pokemon games are particularly big.

I recall them being around 512mb
at least B&W was

Does the Zelda Homebrew launcher hack count?

It can be used as an entrypoint for the HBL but it's worth shitall for the DSi game necessary. DSiware can do whatever the fuck it wants in NAND due to an oversight so it's used to downgrade native_firm from 11.2 to 10.4, and from there you can downgrade.

DP: 64MB
PtHGSS: 128MB
BW: 256MB
B2W2: 512MB

8GB is a decent starting value if you only want to play a few games. Not sure how big you can go with DS cards, but as it's easy to swap them out you can go with multiple small cards instead of one big one.

So do I try it with OoT or wait for December?

If you don't have or can't access a DSi game, wait until December. OoT3D as an entrypoint for HBL + a DSiWare game should let you do the downgrade no problem.

What's the easiest way to convert .3ds files to .cia these days?

For what? Because in 99% situations it'll be easie to just go to Freeshop or download a CIA version of a game. hourglass9 can even dump cartridges to CIA now, the last nail in the Gateway coffin.

Decrypt9

Freeshop doesn't have the game I'm looking for, and the only download I found was .3ds.

Which one? Also is there an inject of Batman Forever SNES floating around anywhere?

Create ncchinfo.bin with gbatemp.net/threads/release-3ds-simple-cia-converter.384559/ and generate xorpads using program of your choice with that bin (I keep RxTools around for this explicit purpose), then build the cia.

THere is no way that's easier than using decrypt9

Thanks, I'll try that.


Japanese version of Stella Glow.


That's how I used to do it, but I don't have RxTools anymore, and that was kind of a pain in the ass way of doing it anyway.

It's a tiny bit of back and forth made even easier with FTP programs and I'm too lazy to download Decrypt9 when I already have something that does the job.

If that's a tiny back and forth then installing D9 is a micro back and forth.

Won't the new exploit advice likely require DSiWare exploits?

I have no idea how to get that.

No, apparently there's a new primary exploit for ARM11. POC will be revealed at 33c3 in December (Console hacking con). There's also two hax called slowhax and verylowpidhax, neither of which are really feasible, but they might be able to downgrade.

Since the guy that found it has talked about revealing it at 33c3 for a few months now, there's a good chance he's already made his own tools that can access HBL properly.

So I used decrypt9 to decrypt the .3ds file, but it doesn't seem to have converted it, even though it said it succeeded. Any ideas?

Nevermind, I'm dumb and picked the wrong option.

No WiiU thread so I'm asking here. What is the status of the RedNand?

So I'm on the verge of doing the DSiWare downgrade, and just wondering,

When I get to the point of having my system transfered to the unhacked 3ds and then following the downgrade and arm9loader installation, Can I just erase the Nintendo Network on both devices and make new ones for them?

Can I also transfer all the savegames from the target 3ds to itself after it's been hacked? extracting them from the sd backup somehow?

You can, technically, by doing a system format. AL9H will remain on the device and you'll be able to assign or create a new NNID, but everything on those devices are going to disappear and not even CFW will be able to bring them back. You could potentially back up saves and transfer the saves over, but the installed tickets pre-format will not work post-format. For the target 3DS this isn't an issue, you have to do a format anyways as part of the transfer, but for the source 3DS that could be a bone of contention.

So, since my only feasable option until then is to use Hardmod- does that mean I may as well update my firmware?

Okay, even if the New 3DS I got can be hacked, I have a substantial problem in the form of having lost the hacked 3DS that had all my games and data on it. The last thing I want to do is start from scratch AGAIN!! I need to know if the data I have backed up can be restored. And if it can be, I want to do that.

On a side note, doesn't DSihax imply a need to download a DSiware game? That kinda costs money or requires me to restore my missing system's data. I'm trying to absolutely avoid just manually transferring my My Nintendo account and having to rebuild my friends list and all that shit.

No! Leave it the fuck alone until the new hack is revealed.

3ds.guide/nfirm-downgrade

i stopped downloading through eshop because it kept disconnecting randomly. I had to check on it pretty often to restart the download.

it was easier for me to just leave a download running on my desktop and transferring it manually.

Just installed freeshop yesterday and the download finished in 2 hours without a hiccup. Kill me.

Is there any use for a Gateway nowadays? I still have one but I already installed the cfw on one of my 3DS's (the other one is the system that uses the Gateway, but I'm considering ditching it and maybe selling it).

Hey, does Wii U have a FreeShop, or is that more locked down?

What do you mean by tickets?

Because I'm gonna try and install arm9 on my brother's o3ds and all the games he cares about he got them physically, more explicitly monster hunter 4 and Generations, I just wanna be assured he can keep his saves, but he's got his own NNID already and don't know how will that mess with the savegames when it's gone, are the tickets just for downloaded games? I'll try and look more into it too, thanks.

The red cards are worthless nowadays, they do nothing that modern CFW doesn't do better. I wouldn't even bother trying to sell it. If you need a DS flash card though, the blue card is OK.

Beware, backing up Gateway saves requires a special trick, if you care about that. Also Gateway-downgraded systems have an issue where injecting H&S doesn't work correctly. I also would not dare use a Gateway emuNAND.


Tickets are basically a thing you need for a game to run.

CFW in general renders a Gateway completely and utterly useless, since if you can use a Gateway you can use CFW.

I don't think I downgraded my Gateway using 3DS, but how do I confirm that? And if I did, how do I prepare a Gateway using 3DS to install a CFW?

3ds.guide/troubleshooting

Ctrl+F Gateway. Beware, godmode9 must be used with care. Follow the instructions -exactly-.

Also the only positive about having a Gateway system is that it'll have 9.2 sysNAND.

Ya'll are the best.

why are you still going to halfchan?

Yeah, looking into it, it seems there's no easy way to backup and restore the saves or anything else from his 3ds after the downgrade process for that matter, but there must be something I'm missing, because then, why have a backup of the target 3ds sd card then? thing is he's gotten his 3ds for more time than I have had mine, and the only thing he isn't willing to let go for free games are his mon hun saves, should have looked more into the process before, thought it was as simple as the downgrade from < 10.7 and would let his 3ds the same but hacked, as it was with mine, oh well, guess I better enjoy Legends of Exidia, Was also seeing if my card worked on the Eshop, no bully

It's something about 3DS threads specifically, I can't think of a single thread in recent memory about the 3DS or its games that has the usual Holla Forums flurry of ">nintentoddler SAGE" shitposts or people being deliberately unhelpful.

I have a tip for you.
On halfchan, everyone is a horny little teenager. You have to post pictures that grab their attention.

Whenever I run into trouble I ask here and in the homebrew general on /vg/

how do i get dlc for smash bros?

the one i downloaded through freeshop doesn't seem to have it.

I think that if you go to the tab shaped like a controller on freeshop, you can download DLC from there.

i see thanks.

Nigger, you can't say nigger without being banned. I typed kike in /x/ and got banned for proving something fake. You're mentally retarded for giving them the time of day.

...

Come on nigger, why the fuck would you go on /x/ anyway? And getting banned takes some serious effort or just extreme bad luck.

Anyway, enough talk about this. We're just derailing it.

You're retarded. Cuckchan is for leftists and YouTube commenters. There is nothing redeemable there anymore.

get jksm and backup your saves. copy the backups to your pc and you can reinject them when needed

That's enough bait for one thread there shit/pol/ster

But I can't back anything up from on the 3DS because the 3DS is gone. I have its sysNAND backup and all the data from its memory card backed up. That's it. What do?

misread that as you are trying to prevent losing data if it happens again.

was it on a9lh? i think you can re-inject your nand backup and just copy the contents of the Nintendo 3ds folder back in. you'll have to hope

there should be a folder in the Nintedo 3ds folder which is a long string of numbers and letters. That's pretty much where your 3ds games, saves, and what not is stored. However, I'm basing this on my experience with emunand+rxtools, and I can't say for sure that it's the same for a9lh

I hope you recover your 3ds user -kun

*you'll have to hope some other user can give you better directions on how to do so.

I tried to do SysNAND Restore and it failed and I'm not sure why.

Apparently idiots on GBAtemp have been giving out their localfriendseed_b files for everyone to use at the same time.
Truly, stupidity knows no bounds.
That being said, I can't wait another 6 days to know if it's permanent, and would of taken one of the files in a heartbeat.

Be more specific. Failed how?


I bet they try sharing OTPs too. In seriousness though, 99% of the time, bans are deserved and the current bypass method (sacrifice a 3DS) should not be documented for scum.


Sure if that's who you want attention from.

Good taste.

To be fair I installed Pokemon for my little sibling and didn't think to turn off Wi-Fi. now my MonHun machine is ded.
What a fool I was.

All I do is increase the odds of someone knowing what problem I have and how to fix it.

Come on guys, you are never such elitists unless it's about the imageboard of your choice.

Well, I think that it simply said it had failed. But I guess I could try again and make sure. It might help me to have it explained what's the difference between SysNAND and EmuNAND. I wonder if I should have created an EmuNAND backup as well.

But cuckchan, or something God I wish people would just keep quiet about the site if they hate it so much

Sysnand is the OS and shit stored on your actual 3DS, emunand is a replica of that stored on your SD card instead.

Excellent explanation, Satan

My 3DS was already hacked and on 9.20.0-20U
but then my SD card fucking died and now I'm trying to get things running again, I tried browserhax but it always fails to load the page

wat do

what's the url you are trying to connect to

You should backup each individual save with JKSM.

i tried:
nin.3ds.guide/3dsbrowserhax_auto.php
don't use link shorteners/1KUKRs2
yls8.mtheall.com/3dsbrowserhax.php

and none of them worked

Just to confirm - after doing this, it will be like having a store bought 3DS and I can follow the guide from the start?

So I've been banned and only have access to one 3ds, can I fix this?

I mean there were bans on legitimate owners of carts that got them before street date. There's no reason to believe they'd be permanent
but then again there wasn't a reason to believe they'd ban people
Either way I'm waiting to see

if you're still around, user, as far as I know redNAND is still in early development. There are only one or two games that you need it for, so you might as well just get an external hard drive and use the USB method, it's easy as shit.

Only downside is it's not region free, but unlike 3ds, wii-u has no nip games worth playing.

wii-u has no US games worth playing either. whoops.

But can I play altered games like uncensored or undubs? I have no interest otherwise and might just wait for the Rednand to develop.

I must say this out of caution, not because there's any confirmed truth to it. Don't put your 3ds to sleep while on wifi. I hear it auto-updates if so. I wouldn't know for sure because I never get mine online for shit.

I can't say for sure about every game, but I know for some patches (like Xenoblade undub) you can apply to Loadiine games

it'll download the update and give you the nag, but I've never heard of a 3ds updating in sleep mode.

Any word on a 002 unban without a second 3ds?

Don't worry about that, it does the same during sleep mode, downloads the update but doesn't actually apply it until you tell it to. 3DS in general does not update of its own accord.

Alright, thanks!

New 3DS improvements are pretty damn cool with Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate. Used to play at 60 FPS only during the little "mission complete" freeze-frame after clearing a mission but now it's silky-smooth everywhere at all times.

Yeah, but that's for the source "hacked" 3ds only right? Guess why I'm trying to do is leave after the process both 3ds like new but with their respective gamesaves intact, and it doesn't seem possible to do that without homebrew already running on both.

So… Can I romance Forte in Rune Factory 4? If not, I'll go with the chinese girl of the Inn.

Yes you can make Forte your waifu.

Forte is a good girl. Take her to Obsidian Manor for an enhanced experience.

Nice, is there a more in depth hart? In your opinion, user, which one is best? Can they marry other people like they did in Harvest moon if I don't hurry?

Now that I know the chinese girl, it will be a tough decision.

...

Do you have the right version ropbin in there? Only asking because it can happen if you overlooked that your version may have changed since hacking the console.

Also just a reminder to everyone in the thread: keep a back up of your SD on your PC at all times to avoid this shit.

Downloaded it again and things worked but then as soon as I tried to install menuhax it gave me an error and told me to check the files in the SD card

things aren't going that well but I'm pretty sure I have the right one

Only Rune Factory 2 does that in this series and it takes a year at the earliest.

Arthur is best, but Forte is great and she has the advantage of being willing to partner up before 3 hearts. Xiao Pai is the only girl that will reverse propose, so there's that.

I was trying to downgrade a "new" 3ds through homebrew as well.
The website could just be down.

If you haven't already, make sure you go to the internet browser settings, click initialize save data, let the browser close, turn the system off, and then try the website again.

And if THAT doesn't work, try doing the same thing, but instead of entering the URL, try scanning this QR code instead.

Just out of curiosity, when exactly (date, time) did you try menuhax?
When I last tried on Friday for another console it seemed like the server was down.

Try and remove all the files on your SD and try again if it's not working.

This might work too

that was probably the case earlier

Gonna try that, thanks!

I like the sound of that. I didn't felt as nervous selecting a waifu since FoMT.
Thanks, user.

Is there a way to change the date and time on a 3DS without using System Settings? I ask because in some games like Sun/Moon, it can screw up time-based events for up to a week (something to do with GetUserTimeOffset), and I can see this being an issue due to daylight-savings or if the battery falls out of a New 3DS while accessing the SD card. I think someone pointed out in the last thread that there's a tool for it but I don't know what it's called. Can anyone help?

I'm not going through that 2 hour long cutscene again, maybe i'll play the next shitmon

pkhex


just let the game initialize save data after choosing your language setting in game then import the save

I just wanted to learn some moonspeak from a casual game goddammit

Well i got to the homebrew launcher
but now menuhax isn't working

Wait, nevermind, i'm stupid and didn't have the theme data

Why didn't the game show up in the save manager? Is there a known problem that causes this? Should I worry?

Oh damn. I'm guessing that means that SysNAND is glued to that specific 3DS, then, right? And EmuNAND is the same thing, but transferable? Does this mean that I'm up the creek without an EmuNAND backup? Or can I perhaps convert SysNAND to EmuNAND on the PC side? Or is there any other workaround?

If there's no way to entirely restore my shit, what's the next best thing? Can I break out the New 3DS I bought and then transfer my NNID onto it and then use the game and save data from my old 3DS? Or will that not work?

Did you use refresh games in the save manager, or whatever that option is called?

Asking again:


Please, respond.

If you downgraded your system and format after it's confirmed on whatever firmware you want, you should be fine.

The new hack will use DSiWare, right?

I have no idea how to get a hold of that.


Oh yeah! Thanks, I'm kinda spacy since getting my wisdom teeth pulled last week.

the e-shop. Buy legends of excidia while you still can. And download steeldivers WITHOUT the update before they get taken down.

So if I want to do Steelhax, I should update my 11.0 N3DS to 11.2, download steeldivers and do not update it, what version number should I look for?

I am in the process of doing a 2.1.0 ctrtransfer. Should I select "Ticket Dump (EmuNAND)" instead of "Ticket Dump (SysNAND) if I have an emunand? Or do I still select "Ticket Dump (SysNAND)"? I don't get it.

Just follow the instructions. I don't think you are going to need to restore your tickets later anyway if you use emunand, at least I didn't for fear of overwriting something important.

No do NOT update.

How do I keep the eshop from deleting my pirated DLC when I open it?

Don't open eshop?

But how else am I gonna get the games I need to hack my new 3DS?

Can I still access the eshop without updating the firmware? I thought it would necessitate that.

Then how are you pirating in the first place?

Because my current 3DS is hacked and I want to get the games ahead of time in case Nintendo shoahs them.
Do I really just have to reinstall the DLC?

For my part, I went online on two different DSes and only one of them was banned.

Called Nintendo to feel out getting it unbanned and the phone operative noted that 2 systems associated with my NNID were banned for playing Sun early, yet only one system is actually banned (and I used the unban method to go online with both using the first one's friendcodeID). Seems like Nintendo's ban method is failing to actually have an effect on some systems they believe to have banned.

By the way, I received a call the next day from Nintendo (not joking), a "supervisor" left a message stating very clearly that although they would not remove the ban, they wanted me to call back for a chat. Gave me a reference number.

Did not call back, I don't need them looking more closely at my account and fixing the ban to effect both systems.

You have to download them on a hacked 3ds.

Funny, I pirated Moon on the FIRST day it was leaked.
on a EUROPEAN 3DS, and have not been banned.

Feels good man.

So I have to get an already hacked 3DS to download them, but then how do you transfer over?

System transfer.

Don't you need online to system transfer?

Yeah, but I think you can use something to make it think your on the latest version, and if not, I think the DSiWare downgrade works on 11.2, so if you're definitely going to go that route, you can upgrade, but I'd wait until the last minute to do so and double check somewhere that there's a working HBL entry-point for 11.2.

meant to reply to

Use freeshop or CIAngel, eshop is useless when you can download any games for free

He's getting stuff for hacking another 3ds retard. Pirated shit doesn't transfer.

Yes.

is there any way to make freeshop save the cia you download from it?

Once you have the game you can turn it into a .cia, but I don't remember what you use, Decrypt9. I think.

Well I think the Ocarina of Time hack may work on 11.2.

It does.

Yea, if you're going to restore your emunand, don't bother with tickets.
I did and it fucked up my streetpass in my emunand, but i don't know if it affected anything else.

Actually, any way to contact plailect to suggest stuff for the guide?

I'm new to this sort of stuff (just found my o3DS yesterday) and I have 11.2.0.0.35u
I'm going to have to buy a retail copy of Zelda OoT or a copy of Cubic Ninja, right?

Do you have another console that you can save restore the cartridge with? If not I wouldn't bother, not unless you feel like buying a Powersave with it.

No, I only have the one.
Would I be able to due this if I bought a New 3DS?
Or would the firmware be updated too high?

Since I only have the one system-

I should probably update my firmware, purchase a suitable DSiWare title, and use the OoT entrypoint. Right?

Since the new hack is only for people that already own the DSi title?

Couldn't he just borrow a friend's 3DS to do the save restore?

It's like winning the lottery right now unless you know they had is shipped before the 11.0 update.
If I were you I'd wait for the new exploit, folks say it will be out in December but you never know so don't hold your breath.
If you really want to get Homebrew running for now you can try what I suggesting by buying both OoT and a Powersave from ActionReplay.


What I said to the user above applies to you too. Wait or play it safe and get Homebrew up now.


He can but he still needs an entry point.

Also note anons, if you buy the N3DS to hack, don't expect to be able to systransfer it to an O3DS to hack it too because it will brick it.
Only O3DS->O3DS/N3DS and N3DS->N3DS works.

I see there was an exploit that used DSI titles, and I have Four Swords. I don't know how to do a hardmod. I can get a copy of OoT and maybe a action replay but should I just wait until the new exploit is released and do it then? I have no issue waiting until then.


I was asking was would I be able to do the hack on another system and keep the o3DS with no firmware on it.

Getting menuhax set up now might make the future exploit easier to do, so right now it's up to you what you want to do.
Personally I love OoT3D and I think it's worth a playthrough, so going down that road isn't a loss.
Weigh your options. They both have their merits.

I already owned OoT on 3DS and beat it when the 3DS first came out.
Sold it about a year ago for full price.
I guess I'll just wait.
All I'm looking to do is get Freeshop setup and get some games I have been wanting to try out but just never bought.

Is the difference in FPS with the OC that important that it would warrant a $300 investment? I have 2 O3DSs and that's how much a New 3DS would cost here.

No. If you have the expendable money, maybe. Personally I'm just waiting for a price drop for the New XLs. Or Pink/White.

I definitely do not have the expendable money. I guess I will keep the old 3DS, then. Citra is looking, so maybe in the future I can replay some of the games there.

It's not just OC, emulators are smoother, you have access to SNES VC+injects, you can play N-exclusive games, they use MicroSD (albeit in a much less accessible part of the console but I digress).
I wouldn't say worth $300 but the pros are there. If you trade in one of your O3DS's you can get a price drop.

No, it's not really that huge a boost. Unless you want Hyrule Warriors closer to the Wii U version, want to have an amiibo reader and a Circle Pad Pro built-in, or want a little jump on a great many games (so far Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, Kirby Planet Robobot while shitting fire around in the mech, and Metal Gear Solid 3D are the only ones I've really noticed any substantial improvement in), don't bother. SNES9x for 3DS is pretty damn good emulation for O3DS (easily on-par with the VC emulator) to boot, so it doesn't even really have SNES games going for it. I only got mine because it was decently cheap, $120 on eBay because it has a couple dead pixels in the top-right of the screen that don't really interfere with anything but bothered the seller enough to try and recoup losses.

I'm not really worried about emulation since that is already pretty good on smartphones if I need it on the go, and I always carry one of those keychain gamepads with me.

even from jewtendo this caught me by surprise

It's mostly that N3DS has native SNES over O3DS requiring a homebrew emulator, but if you're using CFW that's not really too huge a difference anyways.

Jap N3DS doesn't come with a charger because they assume you're upgrading from an O3DS over there. America wins again.

Apparently the EU N3DS doesn't come with one either.
I handed out the 20 shekels to get it because I'm a fucking dumb goy

U S A U S A U S A U S A

In Japan I'm pretty sure there's some law about including chargers with electronics. They have to sell them separately to create less electrical waste in the case the buyer already has 100 microusb cables or whatever.

You're already a good goy for having 2 fucking 3DSes
just get the n3DS

I only bought the second one because I incorrectly assumed playing pirated games online would get me a ban. I will likely install a CFW in it and sell it, but first I need to get rid of the Gateway emunand and I'm a bit afraid of screwing it up and bricking the thing.

smegmalump is apparently under arrest in Japanland for his homebrew work
hastebin.com/ugewavejec.xml

[02:01:05] is there anything i missed while i was gone? it wasnt that long iirc
[02:02:02] smea got arrested while he was in japan
[02:02:58] why?
[02:03:20] * svanheulen has quit (Ping timeout: 248 seconds)
[02:04:14] Nintendo lost patience I guess
[02:04:36] wha
[02:04:45] they arrested him for hax?
[02:04:47] orrrr
[02:05:09] yeah
[02:05:23] wow
[02:05:36] i dont really think thats legal
[02:05:39] also, source?
[02:06:55] lmao
[02:06:59] it's not really public yet
[02:07:08] o
[02:07:17] well that really fucking sucks
[02:07:19] You know there's a word written on your ceiling, staticsn0w?
[02:07:27] wh
[02:07:31] still waiting to hear if he's getting charged
[02:07:43] what do you mean hikari
[02:07:55] twitter.com/smealum/status/801977298798809088 was probably going too far really
[02:08:30] It seemed like a little ribbing, is all…
[02:08:40] yea
[02:08:47] hopefully just end up letting him go, and denying him reentry to JPN in the future.
[02:09:17] o
[02:09:28] banned from a country because of 3ds hax
[02:09:30] or use this as an excuse to getting him to cooperate and become a "security consultant" for them
[02:09:37] that would be fucking hilarious
[02:09:47] the latter is quite common
[02:10:04] ah
[02:10:13] wait
[02:10:23] but then he would find all the exploits and get em patched ;w;
[02:10:36] he actually got arrested?
[02:10:38] yes, it would be bad for us, and him, since he might do it for free.

So that's why the fucking server is down.

GOD DAMN IT

Come on, please tell me we have some save experts on here! Someone must have some answers…

You still need a 'flashcart' to pirate?

PSP masterrace.

NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO

God fucking DAMN IT.
I'm genuinely worried for the poor bastard.
I admit, the tweet is rather hilarious, but shit.

We don't. At all.

I don't give a shit about him because he's usually a dick, but we need him to keep things going. So he better come out fine.

>[02:10:23] but then he would find all the exploits and get em patched ;w;

Guarantee nothing's actually happened or it's just Nintendo arranging something to tell him to quit being a faggot on their property, given that Twitter picture he took showing the HBL with their corporate building in view.

That's more hilarious than his tweet.

I don't give a shit about a person being a dick because I'm not a hyper sensitive snowflake, I mean we're on Holla Forums for fucks sake.

It's just without him, the future hacks for systems like the switch will progress more slowly.


What are the chances he gets arrested/Hired by Nintendo?

didn't geohot get in trouble for homebrew?

That sounds familiar, I think he only got arrested for marijuana, out of all things.

If he's arrested at all I imagine it's a warning to quit being a smarmy cunt where it's not wanted and he'll get off with a slap on the wrist and maybe the "hello nintendo" tweet taken down. Probably little to no chance of Nintendo hiring him, he'd just be earning a paycheck for doing what he already does, shoving arbitrary code into every game he can get his hands on until one of them allows boot.3dsx to be loaded.

That's good. I'm being selfish, I don't want him hired. If he does though, I'll be happy for him, but you know. I'm excited to know what happens next.

I know Sony forced him to give the IP's of everyone who visited his site.

Did anyone else get arrested? This type of thing fascinates me.

I believe hotz was only the one arrested, but named in the lawsuit was also the rest of his group (fail0verflow)
There were some really interesting arrests in the early 2000's but those had to deal with Kalisto and Echelon, who were warez groups, not technically homebrew. You might know Echelon if you have ever pirated DC games, their work is still considered top notch to this day despite being about 16 years old.
Many people got jail sentences but largely since any info on the cases has been lost.

I knew there was a lot of shit going down in the old days, which is a nice bit of history, but I really wanted to know about modern day hackers.

Is there any browser nag bypass for 10.0.7? Ive spent the last 2 hours or so looking for bypass methods, but none of them seem to work on my version.

Do i just have to use ninjahax?

Try this, apparently you can block it at the router level with iptables. redd.it/5eu9h2
bitch about that if it doesn't work.

Why is the new 3DSXL over double the price of 3DSXL?

The New 3DS Black Friday deal doesn't come with one either.

Should be fine. The guide does not require anything emuNAND, but yeah, don't restore a Gateway one it's probably trash. Back up your saves first they're encrypted because Gateway are bastards.


Nope. Don't get banned in the first place.


Mate, you have to actually -buy- the games for them to be useful for DSiWare downgrade. Pirated ones will not make it through system transfer, as I found out when trying to copy over all my stuff to a new system. Nothing at all.


He wants you.


That's only useful for running homebrew though. Opening it up for downgrade requires hardmod or DSiWare.


N3DS is also easier to hack now, unbelievable but true.


That's how it worked in Australia too.


Just clear your SD card. There. No more emuNAND. You'll lose anything on it obviously so back up saves first.


Yeah we do, DS games. Maybe not forever though you can run some homebrew without one.


Someone did. Speaking of which, the PS3 hacking presentation is mandatory watching for anyone here.

Yet, after all these years, the 360 STILL needs a hardware mod.
Fucking hack me user, hack me until I leak personal info

Also

Truly, I am living like a king.
This might be the ultimate portable device.

I had a couple of games before i downgraded and did the whole luma thing but now I dont have them anymore?

What happened to them? Dont really care but i dont want to have any extra memory space being used

They ran away, user.
They don't love you. It's time to let go.

Daily reminder the GeoHot is the reason we have fully piratable PSPs.
He was also behind cracking iOS 6.
He was clearly a very talented man, I wonder what happened to him? I can't believe 2010 was 6 years ago.

Nigger it's called reading, fucking try it. Every guide I've seen warns me about game-tickets being cleared and provides clear instruction on how to back up those tickets.
Now that you done goofed, just re-download them from freeshop. You might still have your saves so it's worth trying.


Anyway. Now that I've finally moved on to Luma from rxtools, what's some cool shit to do with cfw? Can I run GBA games as VC titles?

I downgraded like over a year ago but recently got luma a few weeks ago. That shit wasnt there.

Any browserhax mirrors?

to install luma, you have to do the ctrtransfer process, to flash your nand with 2.1 to get your system's OTP in order to gain kernel access to arm9.
because you are flashing someone else's nand image, your tickets will be lost.
start reading nigger

Im on the new 3ds though.

Oh my fucking god.

fair enough fam. then yeah your games jsut didnt love oyu.

n3ds doesnt need the ctrtransfer step

Dont gotta be so mean. yyesh

After alot of messing around with it and trying repeatedly, it doesnt seem to work. I get the nag anyways.

Good, the faggot deserves it.


He is not only a dick, he is a pretentious faggot that think he is too important because of what he did. Admittedly he did a lot, but most of the work was done by yls8.
Worst of all, he is a moral faggot that didn't want to give the user full control, and lately an edgy fag. It's cool to do those things in anonymity,he didn't and look what apparently happened.

That's true, hell even on his github page with all the *hax exploits for various games he notes he only found Ninjhax and Ironhax and set up Tubehax. Everything else we know about has been yls8, up to and including Browserhax and Menuhax. If he hadn't found Ninjhax or Ironhax I honestly bet somebody else would've not too soon after, and probably wouldn't have withheld Ironhax for months sheerly for the sake of building hype.

I honestly don't really understand the guy's anti-piracy bent given the whole business. Homebrew and piracy go hand in hand and often you can't have one without the other, yet he's hellbent on trying to port NTR and other CFW features to userland (often in a half-working form) going by HANS and he himself has a 9.2 system with I think it was emunand since he kinda needs it to actually test anything he programs. All that talk about him deliberately hiding HBL entrypoints isn't really farfetched given his other behavior.

The things I do to save $40.
Also is it safe to use the online features of Digimon next order?

Most likely, S/M seems to be the only leaked game Nintendo banned people over

S/M is the only leaked game Nintendo's banned anybody over, and they tried banning everyone they could, up to and including people who'd gotten the game legally but were banned for being online before the street/announcement date, and even then Nintendo reports them banned but a great many people weren't actually banned. Digimon should be fine.

How much does anyone really know about the new hack?

It's a new entry point and will still require DSiWare, right?

Alright, thanks.

So after about 4 months of one of the hinges on my 3DS XL breaking (There's a weak point in the right hinge that causes the plastic to bend everytime you open and close it, so be careful with that.), I managed to drop it and break the other hinge, which housed all the wiring to the top screen, and now it's finally completely broken.

Anyway, I was wondering how likely it would be that a pre-owned system from someplace like BestBuy or Gamestop wouldn't be updated? Should I just spend the extra $30-$40 and buy a new one instead?

I just woke up from a coma. My O3ds is on rx tools RX-E 11.0.0-33U. I lost my back up file. Can I still do things?

Fish through the 3dshacks subreddit for a thread that matches initial firmware with product code. There's a fair chance of getting pre v11.x

Back up your memenand, and follow the guide. You can skip anything about setting up homebrew since you have access.

Thanks duder

Had a similar problem like you. Check ebay or google if there's a shop that repairs 3ds cases. Got a completly new case for my 3ds for $45 with installation.
I just told them on the paper i had to fill that they shouldn't go to the internet with it.. (Had emuNAND that time and didn't send the sd card with it)

Do I still play games as cia files?

No, Nintendo issued flash carts to all hackers in hope we would stop using Freeshop

What happened to 3dsiso site?

It's still there.

I should note I saw a copy of Cubic Ninja for $35 the other day.

Just wondering if this is really worth the wait or if I should just do Ninjahax and pickup that DSiWare before it's gone.

Buy it, hack your ds and sell the game at a mark up online.

3rd point is not achievable. It would be more profitable to use it to hack a 3DS for a friend and get a $10 kickback.

It goes for like $50 online- no profit with the shipping and packaging costs.

Thanks though, I think I'm better off with getting it out of the way now before the DSiWare is pulled..

Thank god there's so many hack games to choose from, some on eShop. It's not like the situation PSP copies of GTA had for a time of being hideously expensive.

Why are there so many fucking people HERE suddenly waking up from comas!? This shit shouldn't be common.

Stupid question, but- Ninjahax still works as of the latest firmware, right?


This might be a side effect of playing with 3D enabled. Or the most discrete anti-piracy measure.

I feel like It's some creepy epidemic, and yes.
My turn.

You guys know how you can interchange the save files between sun and moon? Well, I remember an user fixing a "main" file for me from moon to sun, and I thank him for that, but I ran across a VERY peculiar glitch that keeps me stuck in the Trial Cave from Vast Poni Canyon. Which is here, in the picture. I already passed the Elite Four and everything, read on.

I warped Dimensions from the Altar of the Sunne, which became Altar of the Moone after traveling in the Wormhole. I went to the LAKE of the Sunne and got said Cosmog, then when I went back to the Altar of the Sunne again, it gave me a message saying "Would you like to start the Poni Trial now" I accidentally tapped "yes" and it kept me stuck in the cave, with no way to quit or escape from pic related, I can't even fly by going into the altar. If you want more info, I'll try to be more detailed with it.

I'm basically stuck, with no way out. I dun goofed.

It's just your mind's way of trying to tell you you're actually in a coma right now and you're imagining all this.

Here is my "main" file if you want to know what I mean.
mega.nz/#!ANwE3CAY!KamipwUOKWHyh0fqF-g1GlPPvkmv7ejV-RJ8FwEdvz4

I can't exit the cave behind me and get back into the game, I could go forward and travel the portal, but that just changes the aesthetic from "Moone" to "Sun" with no way to exit.

Shit, you just broke the 5th wall.
Maybe I am dream, when I die, I will wake up, or go deeper into my coma.

we had frägment threads a while ago, maybe they stopped because everyone in them went into a coma

At the end of the guide, it tells me to restore my tickets.

Why? What do the tickets even do? All of my games are here.

I used to have emunand before the guide by the way, so the tickets are from my old sysnand.

Please help I am stuck

Okay so it says I can enter eShop without the nag just using homebrew on 11.0.1. and below.

Which is best- Legend of Exdia, or Fieldrunners?

...

Alright, so I've got some problems. I hacked my o3ds back in the day. So I've got an sysnand on 9.2, and my emunand on 11.0. Problem is, it's on RXtools.

How do I go about upgrading to Luma from where I'm at?

Will upgrading my firmware make me lose all of my cia files I have installed?

In addition, I'd like to upgrade to a bigger memory card, since this card is tiny as fuck. How do I go about doing so? Is there some sort of special transfer shit I need to do?

What should I buy to prepare for the softmod downgrade(without a second 3ds) on 11.1 whenever it arrives?

Along those lines, if I have a DSiware game I can download from normal eShop, will that work as an entry point?

I actually just did some asking around.

You will need one of the following games(Cubic NInja, Freakyforms Deluxe, OOT 3d(with powersave))

As for the DSIware, the only remaining exploited game up on the eshop is Legends of Exidia.

Guy who lost two different 3DSes here again. Here's the error message that I get when I try to restore the SysNAND from the previous 3DS.

Sysnands are transferable between 3ds'es?

Dude just fucking redownload your shit. System transfer if you want your NNID. Quit spamming the threads.

If you had emunand why are you restoring sysnand?

I did not have EmuNAND.


I can't redownload save data. I called Nintendo yesterday, and they said everything should work simply by moving the data from one card to the other. Please tell me CFW doesn't break that functionality!

You still can't just restore the emunand from another system. Well, I mean, you probably could, but you'd just brick yourself.

Holy shit you're retarded. Your save data is gone unless you have the 3ds the save came from to use a save manager to extract it.

I have to have Nintendo help me either way, because in order to get my NNID onto another 3DS, they have to set up a data transfer. So CFW works differently than stock in this regard? Well, that blows. What about my saves for games that I downloaded the normal way?

I've recently taken the motherboard out of my N3dsxl and I'm waiting for the parts and materials to come in so I can flash a NAND backup, however, I've noticed that one of the smaller ribbon cables (specifically the one closest to the notification LED) is easily removed from the slot even if it's closed all the way.
Does this matter at all? It doesn't come out on it's own, but I'm not sure if I should use electrical tape to hold it in place when I finally do the hardmod. This is my first time ever doing something like this so I'm a little paranoid.

You only have to call nintendo to unlink your NNID. If you system transfer you keep your NNID and all the games/saves that are offical.

Yeah, the 3DS I'm trying to transfer data from is missing. So I'll need to either find it, which feels unlikely at this point, or have Nintendo hook me up.

So I just successfully did a DSiWare transfer, can confirm works perfectly if you don't fuck up.
I didn't have to use steelhax, in fact if you have OoT3D and you're able to save edit just use OoT3Dhax instead, easier imo.


Just be super gentle with it and put it back where it was, tape can damage those things if you're not careful so if you absolutely have to be caution incarnate.
