Why is your 3DS not hacked?
it is but i still don't play it
>>340364712
same here, its a sad realization but even though I've got everything I need to play whatever I want for free, I still don't want to play anything.
Every time I turn my 3DS off and back on it rewraps all of my games. Anyone know how to fix it so I don't have to search through 30+ identical icons every time I want to play a game?
>>340364660
I already have all the games I wanted and also 11.0 so even if I wanted to I couldn't.
I encountered a problem and I haven't been able to figure out the problem.
At least I'm already downgraded to 9.2 and can play GBA games.
It's illegal. stop making these threads everyday
>>340364660
It is hacked. I played Layton 5 and 6, Final Fantasy tehatiusadiosauioda Call, Code of Princess and that's all.
I'm going to pirate ZTD because I don't want to pay for the Vita version.
I have a lot of games for 3DS, but I don't know, they are good but not that good.
>>340364995
Why don't you just pirate ZTD for PC
>>340364871
unlink NANDs
I have a sense of moralfaggotry to not pirate while the system is actively being supported. Once the next handheld is released, and all of the homebrew shit is established and stable, I'll do it
>>340365074
I have to take a bus, a train and a subway to go to college. It's a journey of 2 hours, I like to use that time to play games or read books/comics on my cellphone.
If you are gonna make this thread every day, you are gonna have to deal with faggots like me with tons of questions and no prior knowledge.
What do the qr codes mean? What is the website that I can access them again? How do I set up Freeshop?
>>340364660
I'm on 10.6, in order to hack it I'd need to buy cubic ninja or freaky forms deluxe, and I don't want to look everywhere to buy a European copy and then have it shipped to Australia.
I'm waiting for 10.6 to be hackable with a game I already own or without any game entirely.
>>340365351

So i go to the 3ds title key website, then go to the fbi installer and take a picture of the qr code. It tells me that it failed to install because a Cert signature or Hash Check failed. How do I fix that?
I got a few questions before I get a 3DS
How much Nintendo games are censored exactly?
Is there a way to avoid this censorship with hacking my 3DS?
Is it true that 3DS got no new worthwhile games?
And the last question
Should I get a normal 3DS or a XL one?
>>340366762
Do you not know how to read a chart?
>>340367169
Enough to guarantee shitposting, not enough for most people to care
Yes, but not every game has an undub version available for download
They are coming out, but at a slow rate
N3DS LL if you want faceplates and more portability, N3DS XL if you like your pixels big
>>340367169
>How much Nintendo games are censored exactly?
Relatively not a whole lot.
>Is there a way to avoid this censorship with hacking my 3DS?
Yes if the game has a de-censor patch.
>Is it true that 3DS got no new worthwhile games?
See >>340365707 and judge by yourself if they are worthwhile. For me, just by having MonHan, Pokemon and Etrian games it's been definitely worth it.
>Should I get a normal 3DS or a XL one?
XL if you don't have tiny hands.

you cant get banned and you wont screw up your system so long as you read the instructions which are very easy and clear. if you're on the latest version which is 11.0 then you wont be able to hack it without hardmodding it unfortunately. for future reference take a look at this guide, its has all you need to know.

oh god
I already have menuhax and RxTools all set up (9.2 sysNAND and 11.0 EmuNAND) and am currently enjoying the games like this but A9LH seems very tempting, is it that much worth switching over? And how much do I skip of the guide with my current setup to get there? Some people say it's worth it but that risk of bricking, even if I never had any problems is what's holding me back.
>>340379919
you have to start over again so dont bother with it, had the same question.
>>340378902
I don't recall there being an option for Japan though
>tfw just finally finished getting sys 11.0 a9lh
Most nerveracking hours of my life, I thought I fucked up so many times.
>>340381573
Should I take the plunge too? Im comfortable at 9.2 Sys but what are the benefits of 11.0?
>>340364660
Because it's not right.
I basically have 90% of the games on >>340365707 pirated and ready to play but I really only play SMTIV, every EO game, and that's it. I haven't been in the hacking scene since January of this year because of this. Is there anything I missed out on that's big?
>>340379919
rxtools is grossly outdated, but if its good enough for you then dont feel obligated to switch over. that being said here are just some of the things that make a9lh so superior.
>A9LH loads before the system's code, so if the system is messed up, Decrypt9 can be loaded to restore from a backup.
>100% boot rate and faster boot rate. (no more flashing color bottom screen/ freezing yellow screen)
>you no longer use emunand just a CFW sysnand. so you no longer have to worry about fucking up and accidentally updating your sysnand instead of emu. also frees up a gig or so of space
>previously with an emunand in order to download play gba games you had to install them on both sys and emunand. since you're only dealing with cfw sysnand you only have to install them once.
since you already have a cfw you can skip to part 4 of the guide and go from there. https://github.com/Plailect/Guide/wiki/Part-4-%282.1.0-Downgrade%29
>>340383451
I see, thanks I'll be attempting it when my new SD card reader gets here. Hopefully it'll go as smoothly as it did when downgrading for RxTools.

take your sd card out then format your emunand
back up both nands beforehand
just in case
I did, but now it spits out an error code every time I try to connect to the internet
I think fixing it involved formatting, something to do with NNID being on both is fucking it up but I can't be bothered to do it.I just want pokemon picross

>>340387619
tinyformat formats without you unlinking your NNID from Nintendo's server
If you format emunand via system settings, you're fucking the shit up of your NNID, and can't go to sysnand because you need latest firmware to create one.

I didn't even hack my 3ds but there's such little content on it.

>>340364660
So what is freeshop and what makes it so special that it's posted on /v/ all the time now?
My 3DS has been hacked for years, 3DS hacking isn't anything new.
My 3DS is on 8.1.0-1.9U, but it seems like this guide >>340366147 is written for 9.0.0-11.0.0. Would I just follow the steps for 9.0.0-9.8.0, or can I not follow the guide at all?
>>340364660
Alright /v/ help this faggot lost in time, so. Do i still need to buy a flashcard to do some hacking shenanigans like the DS or do i only need a SD card?

lets you download shit from eshop for free and install it right away without the need to grab a cia from the internet, copy to your SD then using a cia installer
But CIAngel is a better option because it has updates and DLC, which freeshop doesn't have.

You mean regular sd card, right?
Do I need to update or downgrade my 7.0 o3DS before I can hack it?

Not my fault either, the hack worked but then the CFW just didn't take.

>>340389076
SD card, yes.
Or MicroSD with an SD card adapter if you happen to have one of those lying around and no SD card.

I followed the pastebin to a T.
The pastebin even said "if it doesn't reboot after 5 minutes try it again, if it still doesn't work then I'm sorry but you need to restore your 3DS".
3DS hacking wasn't nearly as reliable when I did it, not like PSP and Wii hacking.
>>340389164
yes you can copy and paste with a9lh

>>340389164
I think if you do it that way it may brick.
Try this method:https://gbatemp.net/threads/tutorial-swap-sysnand-and-emunand-arm9loaderhax-only.415724/
It worked for me.
Is it possible yet to load regular DS games onto my SD card and use them on my 3ds?
>>340389393
google usbit
Any fucking idiot can backup and restore then.
>>340389321
Well fuck. Who should I trust now?
>>340389408
Thanks mate. I'll try this one and see how it goes.
>>340389393
Look at this:
I did this with my 16gb to 64gb and it works.
But really you probably want to buy a 32gb sd card because there's not a lot of games really to download
>>340389560
do you have an emunand with a9lh?
if no then you can copy and paste if yes then make an image
>>340389560
FUCK THAT WAS THE WRONG LINK

SORRY
>>340389685
he has a9lh not emunand why are you giving him shit advice?
>>340389740
because I used this method with a9lh and it worked fine
The other link had nothing to do with switching sd cards
>>340389849
but it's unnecessary, it only applies to emunand, because emunand makes a hidden partition, a9lh removes the partition.
it's just a regular sd with file on it
To sum things up:
Best way to play DS games on a 2DS?
Flashcart?
>>340390287
you got it
pretty much the only way

Because I'm stuck on 11.0 for the time being.apparently, there won't be any good hacks until christmas
>>340391174
You can probably get it working then. I'd recommend using only a 2gb micro sd in it and wiping it entirely and then using the latest woodr4 firmware, and then launching it with the r4 for rev .cia in that thread's op and it might work then. You'll need to be on Luma or have otherwise patched TWL_FIRM though.
>>340366034
>I know, I feel bad about it but it can't be helped.
How about you buy it on the 3ds
>>340391658
Yeah im well aware about the twl firm, ive done my own ds with a r4i i got 3 years ago.
My main problem is i forgot that my ds was unable to read it at one point for what ever reason. Apparently its a simple fix but i cant be assed to to do it right now, way to late for that.
i only have a 3ds for pokemon, rest of the games are shit so I won't bother

3ds library really is barren aside from the 5-6 must haves.
>>340392801
buy one they're like £5 at the most.
>>340392858
In the same boat.
The only thing I want to play isn't coming out until fall
I'm debating ditching my hacks, but that means ditching everything, and linking sysnand and emunand
for some reason i couldn't get my launch day from like 2012 black 3ds hacked. i tried 8 different exploits and nothinngs working, and my other 3d xl and 2ds systems are all updated.
so i'm stuck going physical, which is just as fine for me because i'm a collectorfag and find solace in my worthless physical vidya shit.

>SMT games listed as dungeon crawlers instead of JRPG
>>340390613
you get the key you need from https://3ds.titlekeys.com/ and it really is quite literally searching for the game you want then downloading it. simple as that
Because I followed the guide the day they released a new firmware and now I'm stuck on 9.2.0 and can't get browserhax to work again.
>>340393543
sliderhax
>>340393595
That one where you tap the right side of the slider Tried it 50+ times and it no longer works.
Got it in less than 5 times when I was first installing hbl quick access.
>>340393664
>right side
left
>>340393716
It was the right side when I got hbl to work.
I don't want to buy Freakyforms.
Because I'm on really old firmware and not sure what to do.
That, and even if I hacked it I still probably wouldn't play it.
>>340393998
>tfw FreakyForms Deluxe is nowhere to be found but already have original FF installed.
who /waiting/ here?
>>340394038
I was too and eventually got it to the right firmware but it still fucked up,
Don't bother, you'll just waste hours and probably won't get it to work.
>>340394097
Wrong.
>>340364660
Because I'm on 10.7.0-32U, and don't know how to downgrade.
>>340394097
>you'll just waste hours and probably won't get it to work.
I know that feeling all too well when it comes to modding and other tech stuff.
I'm doing the browserhax on the firmware that's compatible with it (10.3) and I go put in the browserhax site and it initializes and now it's at a red screen and it's been like that for a while.
Do I just keep waiting or did something go wrong?
>>340394504
nvm fixed it
Should I get a DSTWO or a R4i Gold?
why on earth is the n3ds so fucking cheaply made
my god the bottom cover part especially holy shit
>>340364660
My 3DS is updated. I'm not sure if I can hack it.
>>340366586
>CycloDS is the only ones that can run games in DSi mode but doesn't run on the DSi.
I don't understand.
>>340395012
Nintendo doesn't even care anymore.
I dont have a 3ds but i probably once the new pokemon game comes out. I will buy atleast 3-5 games at once just to piss off OP. Fuck pirating
I installed MH X (jap with prepatched english) and I can't run the game. Any time I try, it just says "an error occurred". How can I fix it? It's never happened with any other game I've gotten.
>>340396929
I mean it's fucking superb on everything but that
how do you cheap out on the fucking place where you hold it?
>>340390567
DSTWO adds (laggy) gba functionality but also drains battery even when not in use thanks to its extra processor
R4i just werks but it only werks on luma
>>340397143
They cheaped out and plain fucked up a lot of other things.
Like why is the power button in such an annoying spot? DSi's power button was perfect.
Also why does it take like 12 second to turn off the thing?
Also why did they move the stylus position presumably to make more room for battery and not put a 3000mah battery in there minimum?
And the case material is glossy of no reason. I can't even remember the last time i saw a glossy plastic phone, everyone realised how slick and gross they get with even the slightest hint of moisture somewhere around 2010
And finally and this time being a bit nitpicky, why does the hinge have that middle setting that's not at an angle that anyone would ever use? every time i open the thing up it sounds like i'm breaking it it snaps so loud. The DSi also had a great hinge.
I hate the n3ds that if that wasn't already apparent
I'm gonna bring back this thread to life withy dumb questions
Is there a way to know what version the firmware is before buying the 3DS?
Any must have accessories I should buy with my 3DS?
How long before a new gen of handhelds arrive to kill the 3DS a.k.a should I wait this gen out or just get a 3DS?
>>340398339
>Is there a way to know what version the firmware is before buying the 3DS?
No.
>Any must have accessories I should buy with my 3DS?
If it's an N3DS, a power cable.
>How long before a new gen of handhelds arrive to kill the 3DS a.k.a should I wait this gen out or just get a 3DS?
If NX rumors are to be believed, it's going to be a home console/handheld hybrid, but I doubt it's going to be a truly portable device like the 3DS. Assuming it is though, next march.
>>340398339
No, but if you're in a second hand store, you can try asking to check it out before you buy
No EU region 3DS consoles come with a power cable because "you probably had a DSi" (fuck you pay more, they really mean)
Probably soon.
>>340364660
call me when i don't need a certain game or fw to do this on, like the psp anon

Some redditors have put together a giant list if you're american.
There's some sort of model number on the side of the box or something.
>>340398929
Well, we're finding new games to hack with and new exploits in the firmware at a pretty good pace (We found a new primary entry point with Freakyhax last friday)
>>340398929
To: This Anon in January 2016
why don't you have it hacked, its so easy, you don't need a specific game to do it
you didn't update right?
I want to hack my 3DS. How do I do it?
I like to buy video games
i tried the browser thing a couple days ago on 10.2-28 or whatever and the browser kept bitching at me to update my firmware so i said fuck it and updated to 11.0 because if it was any harder than that i didn't care to dick with it
because I bought a new 3DS without realising hacked 3DS would become viable
>>340398929
Where were you in january?
You didn't need a special game and it was working on the latest FW.
Also once you have it hacked you can update the emunand to latest firmware and play any game no problem, it doesn't even have the "games released after the cut off firmware wont be available until a later date thing" the psp and ps3 had.
>>340399546
If you actually used Google you would know how to bypass that.
Indeed. Why?
>>340399641
i don't care enough about piracy to have to sit through tutorials and all that bullshit i'm fucking 30 years old and have shit to do other than sit around trying to hack my nintendo toy for free games
>>340399546
Dumbass, there was a way around that. you just had to turn off the wifi then delete your browsing data, restart, load in the web page then turn on the wifi again and it would load the hack before it could check with nintendo's servers if you had the right firmware.
Too late now.

You sound like a huge bitch.

>>340399968
nah i'm pretty sure you cried because someone called you an idiot, you gave your answer long ago
>>340399968
Your argument was based on being old and not having time for bullshit
"OP asked a question so i had to answer" is pretty incongruent with that. Or at least the not having time part.
I would, but even with the retard-proof guide I'm still too nervous to go ahead with it in case I screw up. That and I'm too lazy to bother when I have so many other games I want to play through first.
cuz I dont know how to :V
>>340364660
how would It exactly
do I need any specific game or card to do itwhat if I already fully updated my 3DS?
>>340401606
> what if I already fully updated my 3DS?
Then move on as a buyfag or sell your 3ds and buy a new one.
>buy a used 3ds advertised as being 9.2

>>340364954
Hacking your 3DS (which is what OP posted) is not illegal
Because the 3ds just doesn't have good games.

Updating your CFW is as easy as downloading the newest version from github and copy+replacing the files in the download folder to your sd.
If you want online then just update in system settings.
If you're in emunand even if you fuck up somehow you can always restore from a backup.
Emunand is on your sd, you really can't fuck it up irreparably.
>>340387263
Doublecheck you have the right files
So when I'm done hacking I should never connect too I internet again to prevent updates?
>>340405371
Are you using emunand or a9lh?
>>340405635
A9lh
>>340364660
Because I don't own one in the first place.
If I did, I wouldn't need to hack it, I think.
10.3 on N3DS XL. Dunno if I should downgrade.
>>340364660
I want to hack it to edit a single villager into a digital ACNL save but I have no idea how or if I can.
Kill me, it was the villager I built the whole town around.
>>340372865
>you cant get banned
Actually you can get banned. Nintendo just haven't done anything.
If you A9LH the system they can admittedly not brick your machine anymore, but they can ban you. If you're stupid enough to link your system with your actual NNID they can and have all the power to perma ban you. They've simply chosen not to, but who knows what they'll decide to do in the future?
Hack the 3DS all you want. But you people acting like it's totally failsafe with no potential downsides are just annoying. There ARE risks to 3DS hacking, and only after understanding that should people decide whether or not they want to.
I've used this tutorial to get rxtools:
http://pastebin.com/EBKipkPW
Now which tutorial I need to follow for alh9?
Any reason why I should stop using emunand other than faster boot time?
>>340405635
>>340405683
Anon don't leave me hanging here
>>340406972
a9lh has
>100% boot rate
>frees up 1GB(2GB on N3DS) on SD card when process is complete
>makes 3DS impossible to brick
>fast boot time(8~10 seconds as you've mentioned)
thats it. it's optional
>>340406707
They have no way of even knowing you're running CFW and they'll NEVER perma-ban anyone because if they fuck up and ban a legit user then they'll get a ton of bad press.
Even when they banned Sky3DS people using public headers it only lasted for 2 weeks.
Stop trying to fear monger.
>>340405371
>>340407235
you can play online and update after you hack it
What's the name of the program that lets you check if the downgrade was succesful?

https://github.com/svanheulen/downgrade_check/releases
>>340408251
They can't tell if you're running CFW, but they can tell if you're running unauthorized software. They just haven't done anything but they can indeed tell.
And yes they only made a temporary ban before, but what I am saying is that they had all the power to do a permanent ban. They just chose not to.
Knowing this you can totally decide to hack your 3DS, looking at the statistics and deducing that they might not do anything. Just know that they very well can.

These are two I can't even agree with in the slightest, the DSi hinge was a piece of shit that would easily get loose, and the strong crack fixturing on the 3ds is the reasoning why it doesn't happen anymore.
everything else I can agree with though.
I don't have a 3DS but I might get one since I got a job recently.
>>340364660

Does anyone have any links to GBA injectors or emulators that actually work?
I pulled it my old 3ds and hooked it up with browserhax because it was still comparable.
The emulators that come with the starter pack files do fuck all and I can't really get much use out of it at the moment so I can't really do a lot with it as it is now, but the hacks are set up so.

GBA emulation is fucking trash on N3DS and O3DS
There's an inject where you can put any 3DS game you want on the system and they all run perfectly but that requires a CFW 3DS
If youre just homebrew I would recommend
>Brewman (homebrew marketplace) which contains all homebrew apps and gives you info on them and allows you to install them
>BlargSNES which is a decent SNES emulator. most popular games run well
>Retroarch emulators (GB,GBC, Genesis, NES etc etc)
>CHMM(Theme manager
>Gameyob- 100% flawless GB/GBC emulator
>Playcoinsetter(gives you 300 playcoins)
all I got. Get CFW its better and even makes emulators run better
Might hack my launch 3ds. Not going to fuck with my New xl. There just isnt. Anything to play on it right now.
Playing digimon on my vita so i dont even take my 3ds out of the house.
>>340419731
Well I don't have my 3ds on hand, but it's a compleatly wiped because I got a N3ds, so the OS is more then capable for whatever.

you'll keep absolutely everything if you follow the guide to the letter.
yes once you finish hacking your stuff you can update your games
ive never used tubehax but thats a homebrew entry point right? you can keep it then.
how big is the sd card you have now? is it the default one the 4gig? in that case you should move your stuff over before the hack.
here is the guide https://github.com/Plailect/Guide/wiki

>>340428368
i moved all my retail saves to emunand, do i have to move them to sysand?
>>340428180
An A9LH system behaves like a real system, no emunand to boot into, boots right away and flawlessly. You could give someone a real system with 10 games installed from eshop and a A9LH system with the same 10 games installed and there would be no way of telling the difference
havent done the whole a9lh yet, im using cakes and emunand on 10.7, can i update to 11?
>>340428695
if you follow plailect's guide, it will transfer your emunand to your sysnand at the end of the process, including all your games and saves
you won't lose anything if you follow the directions
>>340428695
yes the guide does this for you
>>340428368
>makes 3DS virtually unbrickable and unable for nintendo to patch
except thats wrong, Nintendo could potentially overwrite arm9loaderhax.bin with their own payload, and since that would be loaded before anything else (and thus, before any region protection is set up in place) they could overwrite regions responsible for a9lh or even brick the console.This wont happen though, because each update is analyzed long before it goes live, so we would already have "fix" before nintendo even rolled the updates.

Sounds good. Too good to be true actually. I'm not gonna spend an afternoon setting stuff up again only for the next big thing to show up soon after like i did the first time.
Btw, how's Wii U homebrew doing?

I'm poor as shit as well, I get 499 ish dollars every 2 weeks, and rent, food, power take up most of that. But that doesn't stop me from going hungry for the devs I like.

Kill yourself.
Couple questions.
Whats the highest GB Capcity SD card a DS can take?
How the fuck do I get into 3DS hacking and I know it shouldn't but is there the possibilty of it costing me money?
How come people get mad about 3ds hacking but no one got mad psp hacking?

firm0/1 is protected before arm9loadhax.bin is loaded.
you have literally no idea what you're talking about
the only way nintendo could brick or patch a a9lh console is if you physically gave it to them

>next big thing
it doesn't get any better than this. this is the holy grail of console hacking

32GB officially
128GB if you format it to FAT32
It can cost you money if your firmware is too high
If your 3DS firmware is 10.6 or 10.7 you HAVE to buy a game to hack it
the games include
Cubic Ninja
Ocarina of Time 3D+ Powersave dongle
Freaky Forms Deluxe
the latter is the cheapest
11.0 CANNOT BE HACKED

Because no one gave a shit about the PSP except the nips where piracy is a much much bigger crime. (Relative to us anyways,)
Takes too long and there aren't too many games I want that I don't already have.
I guess there's monster hunter, but by the time the process of getting from having home brew on the system to downloading whatever the fuck I want gets streamlined, I don't think I can be bothered.
>>340364660
Because, in an ironic twist, it still costs money to get free shit. Who knew?

They are microsoft and sony shills paid to do this every day, same as the ones who bandwagon trump on leddit and youtube.

>no good hacks for vita ever
fuck you sony i'm not buying a ps3 just to download my vita games
>>340429816
>11.0 CANNOT BE HACKED
You can if you install a hardmod
>>340364660
Because I actually want to support Nintendo by buying their games.
Crazy, I know.

Piracy has historically always cost an entry fee, whether it's a modchip, flashcart, gamedoctor, etc
You kids these days are so entitled and think everything should be free. Capitalism always makes things better, as it drives development. The only people who do things for free are moralfags who are anti-piracy. The only reason 3DS piracy even exists is because of gateway and sky3ds. The other "free" options came about because they're moral fags who hate only one thing more than piracy: people *profiting* off of piracy. So even though they hate piracy, they release a free option to say fuck you to those guys.
Wii U has a similar predicament, and it's basically a stalemate. By releasing iosuhax, smealum has basically assured that no one profit off of Wii U piracy because he made the key to do it publicly available, without telling where the door to use the key is. Now someone else can't come along and sell the location of the door with the key because the key is already out there for free, and the location of the door isn't something that can be protected once you reveal it. It's probably the biggest dick move I've ever seen, and people are even thanking him for doing it despite the fact that they don't realize *why* he did it
Tell me, would you rather pay a small entry fee and then get tons of free games, or pay fucking $60 for every single game? Any sane person will realize the second option is better even if it's not completely entirely free. And it would actually *exist* if it wasn't for moral faggots who prevent it from existing.
