-RECENT NEWS-
>3DS
-Smea started working on hax 3.0
-10.4 WHEN– January 11th? http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2016/01/extended_nintendo_network_maintenance_on_the_way
-Can no longer download Ironfall 1.0
-Browser/Menuhax both work on the latest firmware again! DON'T DELAY in getting Homebrew.
-memchunkhax2 is a kernel11 exploit that allows downgrading to 9.2, and works on every firmware including 10.3.
>Is downgrading safe?
Safe as it gets for now. Most bricks seem to be people using the wrong firmware. Be sure you understand the process.
-Right now soft bricks can restore by update, but what happens when it's 10.4?
-A libkhax variant of mch2 sysUpdater compiled by julian20 implements the safest settings so far
-Getting the downgrader to even start can require many tries, especially with New 3DS. Opening and closing an FTP app supposedly helps.
-Blank screen can be caused by Menuhax. Try pulling your SD card if you get it. Boot, reinsert, change theme.
>Wii U
-Apparently, the Wii U and 3DS use the same fucking keys... LOL
-Hykem is being weird.
>Vita
-Cobra Black Fin was announced. http://wololo.net/2015/12/07/cobra-black-fin-an-upcoming-dongle-to-play-ps-vita-isos/
-A Vita update got released, you might not want to update since it fixes the email exploit.

when i try to access the system settings in sysnand while the sd card is in, the system just reboots. without the sd card it works fine.
running menuhax, ctrboot and rxtools. sysnand 9.2, emunand 10.3, o3ds. nands are still linked.

what are you even doing in sysnand system settings and why aren't you unlinked yet

>>128219159
How do GBA/VC/DSiWARE work on CakesFW?
Also, I don't need NTR if an out of region game has been "region-freed" right?
Two questions, familia:
- How can I transfer my savedata from the gateway .3ds rom to .cia? The game is theatrhythm final fantasy curtain call (eur), and I am sure it actually stores shit in extdata, not normal save slot. The .cia doesn't see that data listing.
- What is the proper protocol for getting vba .cia's running? I can install ithem to sysNAND, no biggie, but nothing so far works. Tried installing with minipasta -> fbi -> into NAND, but to no avail.
>>128219253
not that guy but i can't just cut/paste game title folders off my sd to my computer and then cut/paste them back when i want to play them again?
Are "REGION FREE" CIAs safe to use online????

Releasing 101:
1. make thing
2. release
Note how there's nothing before 0 and nothing after 1 that reads "build hype", "announce your plans" or anything along those likes. That is intentionally so.
>>128219461
you'll regret it if you don't wait.
>>128219369
Pretty sure the answer is no but I haven't tried myself
>>128219461
hykem says this month for 5.4+ but we're honestly not sure
if you want to be sure, just wait until the end of january. if the exploit isn't out by then (it'll take a few weeks to get software for it), just go for it.
To the guy that helped me figure out what all my files were for Sysnand and Emunand thanks. It worked so I was giving you a hard time.
>>128219543
that seems a bit weird to me, considering i'm pretty sure you can use two different sd cards and still not lose your games on the original one. i can't think of any reason why that wouldn't work, once the games are installed it just loads them from the profile folder.

People with down syndrome maybe.
Is 10.4 out yet?
Also, why have I never seen Gateway, Sky3ds, DSTwo, R4's or any other flash card in brick and mortar stores ever?
>>128219906
>is 10.4 out
once maintenance hits it should be out
>>128219906
Network maintenance starts in 7h15min and will take about 13 hours, so you likely won't see 10.4 before tomorrow
Does anyone have a link to a patched FE if .cia with the 3.0 English patch? I swear I saw it before, but now I can't find it.

Duhhbhhbhh
>>128219906
don't know about you but I've seen r4's in traditional stores, helps if you're not in muricaland and people don't just buy games at the drop of a hat
the others are probably either too complicated to set up for the layman or too expensive
>>128219906
because nintendo can't sue overseas chinese retailers but they can sue brick and mortar shops in the us

>why have I never seen Gateway, Sky3ds, DSTwo, R4's or any other flash card in brick and mortar stores ever?
I know right? I've also never seen burglar alarm disabling kits in walmart before, it's fucking weird
Ok, so I was following this guide
http://pastebin.com/EBKipkPW
Now when I'm opening rxtools I get installation failed message but the program launches and and when I'm checking TMD I get
Opening S...
Failed!
You guys got any clue? I'm using the secondary package ('Use this if you're having problems') since when I was launching the first one the console was rebooting to boot manager and then the screen screns were turning black and red.
I'm using o3ds xl

>>128219906
>Also, why have I never seen Gateway, Sky3ds, DSTwo, R4's or any other flash card in brick and mortar stores ever?
Why have I never seen a gun at my local supermarket?
Now that I downgraded to 9.2 and have emunand 10.3, what do I do to get my old R4 DS cart to work?
>>128220160
put it in your ds
and that is a serious answer
>>128220091
>when I was launching the first one the console was rebooting to boot manager and then the screen screns were turning black and red.
You mean it went to bootmanager, you'd pick rxTools and it goes back to bootmanager?
That means menuhax is installed in emuNAND AND sysNAND. Remove it from emuNAND by changing the theme (get into emuNAND by going to rxTools in bootmanager and not activating menuhax)
will I be able to install rxtools emunand on a 2 gb SD? that's all I have before maintenance starts, I'll do the procedure to swap later
>>128219906
>Gateway actually can brick your console if it accidentally thinks you're using a DSTWO+
>brick and mortar store
Clinically retarded here, I know downloaded DS games won't work without a flashcart but will an actual game card work?
>>128219974
Does this mean we have enough time to get emunand up and running (for today at least?)
I'm having some trouble injecting FBI into the emuNAND health and safety. I tried with rxTools but selecting the check TMB option only gives me the region. Trying with Decrypt9 gives me a "Could not open hs.app!". On n3ds.
>>128220202
So basically no one's figured out how to get them to run on 3DS?
>>128220202
wait, it will work by default now? I thought you had to install something "flashcart whitelist" or something like that.
>>128220332
You mean an actual original DS cart? Of course it will
And you have time to downgrade especially on o3ds
>>128219774
>1. use savedatafiler https://gbatemp.net/threads/tutorial-how-to-export-import-gateway-card1-sav-to-eshop-3ds-3dz-with-savedatafiler.380246/
Thanks, it worked! I tried figuring it out on my own, but something went wrong in the process. Based anon.
>2. inject fbi into both nands with decrypt9 https://gbatemp.net/threads/release-inject-any-app-into-health-safety-o3ds-n3ds-cfw-only.402236/ then install AGB_FIRM and your desired gba cias to both nands. find patched AGB_FIRM in the 3dsiso update file thread
Do I have to install shit to both nands, if I'm not concerned about running these .cias from emuNAND? Nands are properly unlinked, eshop works on emu.
>>128220365
you can if you screw with blacklisted title ids or something but from what i understand the performance is garbage
He's a cheeky cunt. I'll give him that.
>DONT DOWNGRADE UR GONNA BRICK
>Well I mean if you want to downgrade
>>128220237
It goes like this, I boot rxtools, then the console reboots and boot manager wants to automatically launch rxtools but instead of the launching the program it just shows me red and black.
So I have N3DS that just downgraded to 9.2, I want to play Sm4sh with my original cartridge, but I'm stuck on the splash logo boot. how do I fix this? I just bought Cloud beforehand to add salt on my wound
>>128220420
You don't have to install to emunand if you don't want to run anything on it. Personally I'd like to run everything from emu so I do it. You can run it from sysnand just fine if you only install it there. Plus you can run pastamode on rxtools so you don't have to even install AGB_FIRM.
>>128220375
>>wait, it will work by default now? I thought you had to install something "flashcart whitelist" or something like that.
you might want to reread the post you quoted
specifically the part where it says "ds" and not "3ds"
>>128220365
install DSwhitelist.cia to SysNAND, which will unblock all the 3DS-enabled DS-mode flashcarts that Nintendo blocked over the 3DS' lifespan
>>128220468
I'm impressed he still hasn't twitted and posted on gbatemp telling people not to use SafeSysUpdater because they will brick if they downgrade with anything but KTM.
>>128220530
you'll need a cryptofixed cia
>>128220468
>release KTM and it actually works
>but causes softbricks that will lead people to update to 10.4
JUSTThis is obviously a joke, he will never release anything.
>>128220375
>You mean an actual original DS cart? Of course it will
Yes, and neat
>And you have time to downgrade especially on o3ds
Yep. Gonna get it working now. Next step for me is to downgrade.
By the way, for unlinking NANDs, is there a way for me to tell which is sysnand and emunand (since I read they both have the same IDs) before I reformat the sysnand? I want to back up the original just in case
>>128220476
yeah that means you have menuhax installed on emuNAND too
When you boot rxTools, make sure you're not triggering menuhax (either by not holding the trigger, or holding the trigger to disable menuhax that you may have set up) and change theme, that will remove it. Turn off and everything should work.
If you didn't change any menuhax trigger options, just don't hold anything when you first boot rxTools
>>128220539
I assumed he meant 3DS, the same way people used to call DS's gameboys.
>>128219774
>just format the system memory with the card out from the start, your emunand will most likely still work
thank you, this worked. emunand is still up and running and the nands are unlinked now. i just had to reinstall menuhax.
>>128220605
You mean I should pirate smash and my cartridge become sitting duck? I have not even istalled cfw yet
Anyone have that copypasta/pastebin for setting up rxTools to coldboot without ctrbootmanager someone posted the other day? I've been using the manager since last week, but if I can shave off a few extra seconds during boot I'd prefer to do it that way.
>>128220769
install cfw
update emunand
"backup" smash with dlcs
sell your copy of the game
?????
PROFIT
>>128220708
>I assumed he meant 3DS, the same way people used to call DS's gameboys.
no, i was basically saying it wasn't worth it to try and get it working on 3ds due to >>128220435
though if anyone has firsthand experience, i'd listen to them instead.
>>128220763
>>128219240
and i think the problem was that exiting the system settings doesn't go back to the main menu, but it actually restarts the system entirely. since i had menuhax and ctr set up it would always load ctr instead of going back to the menu.
>>128220769
>pirate smash
don't put those words in my messages
you can rip your cartridge game and its save and make a .cia out of it
however due to encryption stuff you'll need an O3DS to do that
if you don't have a spare homebrew compatible O3DS at hand you'll have to resort to a .cia which has already been cryptofixed
>>128220248
Hoy, can I?
How do I update my emuNAND to 10.3 on rxTools? I keep getting an error message from within System Settings.
So what games can't just be installed to emuNAND? VC titles?
Please release a hotfix that makes 3ds's update automatically so we never have to have a week of tech support threads ever again

do you see the slider in the top left corner of the touchscreen of browserhax? you have to click on the ery right side of the slider to execute browserhax, it's a different explot than on 10.3. took me over an hour to figure this out, since it is rarely mentioned
>>128221587
N3DS or O3DS?
>don't use this in sysNAND gateway mode or it will brick!
How do I check if this is the case? I want to cover all my bases.
>>128221653
I just stabbed the slider, it worked more often than not
so, when fw 10.4 comes out, can i just update the system in emunand right away or do i have to wait for something?
and what about using an update from a physical game cartridge? does that work without any issues?
>>128221653
saviour
>>128221809
Usually safe, but better to wait. Never know if something might break.
Also, NEVER update emuNAND from a game or home menu notice. You must ALWAYS install from system settings.
Despite the help of a few kind anons my previous files were unsalvageable.
Ended up having to format my SD and start from scratch.
Luckily I hadn't actually started any games yet.
I installed everything in record time too since I knew what the fuck I was doing.
>>128221713

>>128221587

>>128221605
Are you loading this page: http://yls8.mtheall.com/3dsbrowserhax_auto.php ?
Do what >>128221653 says, then try to reinstall menuhax
You can also try tapping the rightmost point of the slider and pressing A at the same time, for maybe a couple of times. Like that it worked for me.
>>128221809
I'd wait if I were you
>>128221713
Put different themes into sys and emunand.
Check system settings (if you don't have autoboot enabled you will be thrown back to sysnand afterwards even when on emunand)

>>128220357
Bump. The NANDS are still linked but the FBI I installed on sysNAND doesn't show up in emuNAND.
I know there's a safe-data manager, but is there anyway I can do a full system transfer with kernel access on both systems?
>>128222156

>17) That's it!; Now you have menuhax back and working like normal.
Do you NEED to boot the console after step 14, with the SD reinserted? To have it recognize unlinked NANDs or whatever?
Or is it ok to put the already removed SD card (Step 12) into the PC and carry out steps for getting Menuhax back?
I did not put the SD back or boot the console until doing steps 1-3 for getting Menuhax back and I wonder if I fucked up here, because I can't for the life of me get Browserhax to work now, been trying for literally 10 hours now, all with clearing cookies and tapping in the right spot and shit.
>>128222343
The original R4
How can I check if my EmuNAND is linked or not
>>128221648
Thanks for the save. I could have sworn I formatted before starting this whole thing.
>>128222516
according to tard guide, make a folder when in emunand, then reboot into sysnand and see if the folder is there
>>128222496
buy the last one
>>128222539
heh
at least you figured it out!
>>128222564
Does it work the other way round? Make folder in sysNAND and check for it in emuNAND?
>>128222496
i'm using the r4i. still works on the 3ds, i just tried it with emunand 10.3, last time i tried it on sysnand was 10.x before downgrading and it worked. so i can really recommend the r4i
>>128222569
R4i is the best then?
>>128222494
Once you remove the SD card and do a sysNAND format (step 12) you should just go through the normal steps (as if the 3ds was brand new, like time/date etc) and then once that is done, turn the 3DS off.
You should be done after that. The NAND's should be unlinked. You'll need to go into sysNAND with the SD card back in the system and go to browserhax to install menuhac again.
Is that what you are doing/have done?
You're tapping far left on the slider yeah? Try far right too if you want, some have said that works too.
>>128222564
How do I do that, via RXTools or what
Im really new at this, sorry

guys, friend fucked up and forgot to order an sd adapter online (can't buy locally)
if they stay offline past 10.4 and order cubic ninja, can they still install+use ninjhax even if the browser is forcing them to update to use it?
>>128222838
>if they stay offline past 10.4 and order cubic ninja, can they still install+use ninjhax even if the browser is forcing them to update to use it?
Yes.
>>128222838
if you use browserhax you don't need qubic ninja. it works on 10.3, do NOT update to 10.4 for any reason. just wait.
>>128222838
ninjhax doesn't use the browser right? It should be fine
Wouldn't OoT be better though? I mean, atleast he has a good game to play then.
>>128222612

>boot into emunand
>click on empty space in home menu

>reboot into sysnand after folder is made
>>128222838
>>128222905
Correction: Maybe no, because 3DSes ship without a browser installed.
>>128222961
>ninjhax doesn't use the browser right?
It takes the browser over to acquire more privileges, at least that's what it did in ninjhax 1.0. I'm not sure if it still does in ninjhax 2.x.
>>128222909
browserhax works on 10.3 because it is the latest version. When 10.4 is out, it will be broken again and will ask for an update.
We can only assume downgrading will be patched then too, but that's speculation.
>>128222758
>Once you remove the SD card and do a sysNAND format (step 12) you should just go through the normal steps (as if the 3ds was brand new, like time/date etc) and then once that is done, turn the 3DS off.
Yes, done that.
But I didn't:
>14) Insert your SD card
>15) You're done, the NAND's are now unlinked!
Instead, I put the previously removed SD and went ahead with:
>1) Backup the "boot.3dsx" file on your SD card
>2) Download this: https://mega.nz/#!WB0yVDQA!PwkTzA3686cQLs9uCByMVMc0FZic8tPy8xfpu63aaBs
>3) Add the downloaded "boot.3dsx" file to your SD card
>4) Place the SD card back into your 3DS
>5) Turn on the 3DS (don't hold L so that you boot into sysNAND)
>etc.
So is it ok that I didn't boot sysnand with the SD reinserted before proceeding to redo browserhax->menuhax for sysnand?
>>128220357
Did you put the hs.app file in the Decrypt9 folder instead of your root folder?
>>128222961
cubic ninja will always be safer
>>128222961
OoT requires a different entrypoint first. It can't be the primary one, unless you somehow have access to its save data.
>>128223038
>browserhax works on 10.3 because it is the latest version. When 10.4 is out, it will be broken again and will ask for an update.
i didn't know that, thanks for the heads up.
Is there a guide to patch AGBfirm? I'm getting nothing but errors from this half assed guide on Gbatemp.
I booted to Gateway Sysnand mode and tried using FBI to install AGBfirm patched v2 to nand and it worked. But installing any GBA game and I get errors. SUMMARY_WRONG_ARGUMENT (0x8).
Do I install GBA games to NAND or SD?
>>128223016
OH
I forgot the 3DS actually had those kinds of folders, I assumed it had something to do with the SD Card, thanks anon
>>128223054
>>128222758
Sorry, should be:

shit, I really hope so. they can't set up menuhax right now because they lack the sd adapter
>>128222909
>even if the browser is forcing them to update to use it?
>>128222961
OoT doesn't have QR code scanning. How would they flash the save on without homebrew access?
>>128223028
>Correction: Maybe no, because 3DSes ship without a browser installed.
they actually updated before and have the browser right now. is that really all they need for it to work, even if the browser forces them to update?
>>128223106
to sd
>>128223054
That should be fine yeah. What is the problem exactly? Is browserhax freezing on a white/yellow screen?
>>128223090
>>128223147
You can use those 3ds save card usb editors. Also I assume that the guy I responded to would help his friend by adding the save exploit to his OoT
>>128223062
I just checked and I don't even have an hs.app file. Where would I get it?
>>128223147
The "browser forcing them to update" is a check at runtime or even just at the home menu. If ninjhax takes the browser over, it just creates a fake process to load it up in order to take it over -- and ARM11 kernel gives absolutely no fuck about what the browser itself and/or home menu have to say in the matter.
how is emulation going along on the 3ds? i've only seen the gba emulator
>>128223313
blargSNES works fine for me (o3DS XL running it from HB Launcher)
I head games like Starfox and Yoshis Island wont work because of that chip not being supported yet.
GameYob (GB/C emulation) is perfect for me so far too
>>128223230
>That should be fine yeah. What is the problem exactly? Is browserhax freezing on a white/yellow screen?
Ok, thanks.
And yes, browserhax just won't work for me now. I had to do it and I did it just fine 4 times before, and each time it took about 25 tries at most. Now I'm half a day into doing it and after 500 tries I got nothing.
In fact most of the time now tapping the slider does nothing at all, no yellow screen or anything.
>>128223416
cool, thank you!
Will it be safe to update emuNAND to 10.4? I don't understand how CFW works on 3DS at all. PSP CFW needed to be built for each new update, and that's my only frame of reference.
Reposting
Following the retard's hacking guide and It's been smooth sailing so far, I'm stuck though.
Section C is about creating an EmuNAND, I completed this step completely but when I try to do step D, unlinking the NANDs the rxTools don't work. When I press it the screen flashes then goes all black. The creator of the pastebin posted another link for an alternative rxTools, I copied and pasted the xrTools folder over the one in my SD card and now when it's launched it just brings up an error screen telling me it's failed. The screen then goes black.
Can anyone lend a hand?
What does Smea have to say about all this?

You get it by dumping it from your system, then putting FBI into it on your PC, then copying back in for injecting into the nand. Follow this guide: https://gbatemp.net/threads/release-inject-any-app-into-health-safety-o3ds-n3ds-cfw-only.402236/

Try replacing the boot.3dsx with the one from here https://smealum.github.io/ninjhax2/starter.zip
It should be exactly the same, but it's worth a shot I guess. (when it works, remember to rename it to "brew" and replace the ctrbootmanager "boot.3dsx" to the root)
>>128223457

>>128223498
Was the bottom screen red with the standard rxTools download? If it was, you have to boot into emuNAND while holding down the button you use to bypass menuhax (default is L or X). Then, get rid of menuhax on your emuNAND by loading any theme. Remember to put the standard rxTools on your SD again beforehand. This same scenario happened to me a few hours ago.
>>128223504
>>128223561
What tickles me is that people believe Smea wasn't aware something like this could happen. His stance on piracy is very much known, but at the same time, I feel he just wants to avoid being labeled the guy that released it.
Dude is way too smart on this topic. He definitely knew this would someday happen.

Why does nothing happen on step 29
My 3DS just reboots into the regular home screen and the EmuNAND seems to be unlinked because the folder I make shows up only in the EmuNAND, not in the SysNAND
Did I fuck something up
>>128223959
very likely. I follow him on twitter, and he's very much an attention whore.
can't blame him for wanting to gloat over his accomplishments; the man has done the lion's share of the homebrew scene.
>>128223823
Devs that release cool shit can spout whatever they want as long as i get my free games.

Check your system settings. Does it say "RX-E *version number*"? It should do, if it does you are in emuNAND.
Do I need to format my n3ds before downgrading?
What's this about resetting dbs?
>>128223618

Actually tried that earlier already lol. To no avail of course.
>>128224272
Yeah, it does say RX-E
And I AM in emuNAND
But when I boot into sysNAND my folder is gone, doesnt that mean that theyre unlinked
Still following the retard guide and im on c - Creating an EmuNAND and Installing Custom Firmware (CFW)
>>128224486
>Yeah, it does say RX-E

It does. I'm not seeing the problem...
>>128220769
Theyre bullshitting. My game works fine
>>128224572
I may just not understand, then
Because the guide says
>30) You're done: You now have a linked EmuNAND.
And the next step is unlinking them
Or did I somehow skip the next step
>>128219159
>emuNAND max versions: N3DS 9.5, O3DS 10.3
How do I upgrade my emuNAND to 10.3 and maintain FBI and so on? Is it even worth doing?
>>128224734
I don't know how but they are unlinked without you unlinking them then. That's very odd.
Try changing theme in emuNAND, are the themes in sysNAND and emuNAND then different?
POST YOUR TOP FIVE GAMES GO
>>128219159
So, if I have a vanilla firmware 2ds with 10.3 I'm still up shitter creek?
>>128224786
>How do I upgrade my emuNAND to 10.3
in emuNAND, go to settings, update
That's it. Assuming you're o3DS ofc
>>128224898
I think you can follow the o3ds guide, though I am not 100%, hopefully someone on 2ds can tell you.
How's this update gonna fuck over homebrew? I've already got all the shit I want installed. Will I still be able to play my "backups" online after the update?
>MEGA downloading at 50kb/s
>>128224960
But there's actually a chance? Sweet, I thought above 9.x was shit out of luck. Its an extra system so I don't mind if I fuck up as much or get banned from online play somehow.
>>128223489
Basically, remember DevHook and similar programs? It's that. Firmware Emulation. RXTools and similar programs patch and emulate the firmware on emuNAND just like DevHook used to do. A new official firmware release might require new patches and updates from the homebrew-side of things to work.
>>128224825
Now that I changed the theme, I cant boot into rxtools
Or anything, for that matter
And the system settings doesnt say RX-E
What the fuck
>>128225141
you fucking moron were you in sysNAND? Reinstall menuhax.
>>128225107
I know people have donw it on 2ds, idk what guide they followed.
>>128223823
>Dude is way too smart on this topic. He definitely knew this would someday happen.
Which is why he is never the one who releases the exploit, but rather, he pretty much lets theirs do it. Remember geohot with the PS3?
>>128225107
2DS = O3DS, sempai
You're good to go.
Still getting a "cannot find CIA files" when downgrading a n3ds. Filepath is correct, not on mac, using latest sysupdater. What am I doing wrong?
>>128225261
Nope, I was definitely in emuNAND
Checked twice
Currently reinstalling menuhax
>>128225107
You can, but make sure you HAVE the 2DS firmware files. Some faggot insterted O3DS into his 2DS and couldn't get past the testing the 3D slider part, thus essentially bricking his console.
/v/ doesn't seem to know, so I'll ask here. Please help m8s.
Okay, I wanna make sure I get this completely right.
When this https://gbatemp.net/threads/tutorial-more-or-less-catch-all-tutorial.407080/ says "Put your RXTools folder in your SD card's root" what folder is that?
My download of RXTools goes rxTools-83afbb6\release\ then four other folders, mset, ninjhax, rxTools and tools. Am I just taking the rxTools folder from the downloaded release folder or should I rename the release folder to rxTools and put that in? I wish these guides were more clear about the stuff these downloads contained.
So my o3DS wont boot into emunand anymore.
It was working perfectly fine yesterday and now it crashes from cold boot.
The only thing I recently installed was MHX and a couple days before that I tried to download Ironfall 1.0 that is now stuck permanently in DL mode but even then my emunand was still kicking
All of this was done from OSX.
Should i get a bigger sd card before i install cfw and make an emunand, or can i still get a bigger sd after i install cfw and have a sys and emunand?
Whats easier?
>>128225326
To check if your NANDs are unlinked, see if there are two different IDs (folders that have titles that look like nonsense) in SD:/Nintendo 3DS/.
If you enter system settings in RX tools and exit, you will boot to your SysNAND. Exiting System Settings effectively soft-resets your console, not sure why nintendo implemented it that way.
>>128225442
>people STILL don't know what the SD card root is
>>128225509
fuck off tripfag
>>128225442
yes, the rxTools folder. You're over-complicating things. It's called rxTools, so it sort of has to be that one.
>>128225496
Oh, also, im already on 9.2 with menuhax installed, if that matters.
>>128225361
Will GBAtemp point me to some way I could stumble upon such things in a dark alley purely by chance?
>>128225326
They must have been linked still then. That's very wierd that the folder didn't stay from emuNAND to sysNAND though.

Having a bigger SD first, but your running out of time. You can just copy over from small SD to large SD later usingthe guide in OP.
>>128225509

I'd assume to save/load settings and be 100% sure they have loaded. Much like some games need you to close/open them to set certain graphics settings.

The rxtools folder is the one named rxtools that's literally it
The retard guide says to downgrade to 9.2(Full) but everyone I talk to says that they downgraded to 9.5. Does it matter which? This is on an O3DS XL.
>have old 3DS xl with 9.2 and everything setup
>thinking about getting new 3DS
>see one for 140 relative new on 10.3 but has problems reading games
Iam just afraid that if I buy it and try to downgrade it will softbrick and I have a 10.4 piece of shit.
Why cant I be happy with my old 3ds xl? Why do I get this feeling I have to upgrade?
>>128224960
Thanks man. Runs fine. I take it whenever the next version comes out I shouldn't update the emuNAND?
>>128225752
You downgrade to 9.2 to get full control of the system. N3DSes update their EmuNANDs to 9.5, because they can't go beyond that for ~reasons~
To everyone I've been saying "fuck FBI injection" to, I apologize.
Fuck RxTools FBI injection.
If you've already formatted emunand and unlinked sysnand, you can still do this method to inject FBI.cia into both NANDs: https://gbatemp.net/threads/release-inject-any-app-into-health-safety-o3ds-n3ds-cfw-only.402236/
I am a fucking dumbass and I apologize. Fuck.
>>128225752
On n3DS you need to update up to 9.5 after downgrading, installing cfw and unlinking.
You always need to go to 9.2 first
>>128225752
you downgrade to 9.2, then if you have a new3ds you update the emunand (different from your system internal) to 9.5
I downgraded to 9.2, have menuhax and shit, but wont be able to finish it all for a few days because my SD card is too small. Am I okay as long as I downgraded?
So, I just hacked my Vita 3.55 with ARK and when I get home, I'm going to do the same with TN-V11. I need to know 2 quick pieces of information for when I'm finished...
1. How exactly do you install PSP games and how would I install English-patched games like Grand Knights History, as found here: http://nicoblog.org/psp/iso/grand-knights-history-english-patched/
2. I know ARK is shit for PSX games, so how exactly do I install PSX games with TN-V11? I have Legend of Mana downloaded, but they're .bin and .cue files. I know I need an EBOOT file, or something, but I don't know where to download that, how to install it, if I can just convert those .bin and .cue files to .iso, and so on.
Thanks ahead of time for taking the time to answer my question.
>>128225721
>>128225656
Yea, i forgot to mention that im already on 9.2 with menuhax installed. Nothing else has been done. No emunand created. Just a barebones 9.2 new3dsxl.
Ill just get a bigger sd today. Since the sd currently in the 3ds has nothing on it, im assuming itll be good to go with the bigger sd.
Whats the immediate next step after downgrading my NewXL to 9.2? get Emunand working?
I have a O3DS with 6.3, do I downgrade? Upgrade?
>>128225509
>you will boot to your SysNAND
Unless you have menuhax and "type 2" set on the configuration in which case it will only go into sysNAND if you press the set combination of keys. Pretty handy for foolproofing the system.
>>128225863
RxTools injector is shonky, that's the correct way to inject.
>>128225959

>>128225902
>>128225871
>>128225852
Thanks, so I get 9.2.0-20e(Full) Right?
>>128226092
Update to 10.3 and then downgrade while you have the chance
I can't to the homebrew menu after installing RXtools. It says something about not being able to access internal archive. Wat do?
>>128226115
that would be the /updates folder right?
>>128226149
If youre on a euro old3ds, then yes.
i just finished downgrading my n3ds to 9.2, nothing more.
if i leave it as it is now will i be able return to this at a later date / wait for a simpler method because im literally retarded?
Hello i'm on emuNAND 10.3 o3DS, my 4gb sd card is full, how do i use another card to play my gaemz? i used emuNAND Tool, extracted the emuNAND, when i insert a clear SD CARD it says

Do i need to format it with tinyformat?
pls halp (the second sd is a 4gb microSDHC with adapter to SD)

Don't. 10.4 is right at the corner. If he fucks up, he's dead.
>>128226107
>RxTools injector is shonky, that's the correct way to inject.
Yeah, I used to suggest the sysnand>pasta>fbi.3dsx>fbi.cia method and then clone it to emunand when formatting, but I realize that doesn't actually work for everyone for whatever reason (probably frankenstein firmware?)
this Decrypt9 method sounds much more convenient+consistent, honestly, and makes FBI on emunand w/unlinked NANDs less of a hell to get going
>>128226219
Well australian but Isnt Euro the one I need?
>>128226092
Setup rxtools 2.6 and be happy. If you want you can update to 9.0/9.2 with 2.5.2 and devmode but its not necessary. Just use 2.6 and you are good.
>>128226172

>>128226380
>What? Are you implying they will release an update only for n3DS now?
He's suggesting they add another layer of crypto like on the N3DS.
Good news is, no, they can't. The N3DS shit only worked because they had a NAND partition with console-unique crypto for which the key region gets locked off super early.
O3DS is dead and the only layer of crypto left is bootrom, for which all keys are in use already, so they can't repurpose them.
