IS GBA VC BROKEN ON 11.4?

only on luma 6.6 but the latest nightly seems to work fine

>-SAFE FIRMWARES-
>3DS: 11.3

Feels so fucking good to finally see this doesn't it bros?

just go make a backup nand if you're anxious.

link?

no 9.2 replacement was good to finally see shit was up there for like 2 years

Hell yeah.

how do i choose a soldering iron and when do i use leaded solder vs non leaded?

11.4 is out tho

If i were to switch SD cards but nothing else, could i just copy the contents of the old SD card or do i have to do the process again?

If you have a9lh, you can cut and paste.

I'm not retarded, so I'm indifferent.

It would be pretty nice if 11.4 didn't come out five seconds later to patch the new exploit, just so I could know I could hack any system, but it probably doesn't matter anyway.

So is the freeshop going to stop updating titlekeys?

Anyone got a good in-depth tutorial on how to put Custom Music on this game? playing it via USB method so no physical disc, if that's a factor.

Yea my 3DS has already been hacked as well too is I guess it doesn't matter so much.

But I'm sure those anons that kept asking about the 11.3 hack due to an accidental update would be jumping with joy right about now.

Freeshop updates using an external database not maintained by Cruel, so no.

Freeshop uses an icon cache for games however

github.com/Repo3DS/shop-cache/releases

Though it seems to be updating automatically weekly, but on the other hand it has broken before when Korean or Chinese games were added.

>no more freeshop
>have to use ciangel
Was this planned?

so i should install the latest nightly build here
astronautlevel2.github.io/Luma3DS/

then i can update to 11.4? i rlly dont want my gba vc broken

...

Get a knockoff hakko soldering station+some irons and tips off ebay. They're dirt cheap and really good.
Always use leaded, non-leaded is a meme perpetuated by retards with a mortal fear of lead.
And buy some cheap-ass hobby kits to practice with first. Don't even think about touching expensive electronics with a soldering iron until you have at least some idea what you're doing.

>Luma3DS v6.6-0eab9127
>n3ds FW 11.4.0-37E

I have the latest nightly from Luma updater and DS mode doens't work, tho I'm not suprised nor is it a high priority to me since everything else works.

first thing i ever soldered was my headphones back together. That was a bit of a shit job desu. The soldering I plan to do is to set up a nand reader (solder 3v regulator to teensy, solder a couple of pins and stuff to the board) and not actually on a console. Think that would be fine as a basically beginner project?

can you tell me if gba vc works? i cant trust these fucks.

Virtual consoles work just fine, tried smb3, pokemon yellow etc, no problems. It's only the DS mode so far afaik

That'll probably be fine then, I imagined you were planning on stuffing some mod chips into a console. It's just best to get to learn soldering on larg-ish contacts and on electronics you don't mind possibly ruining. I've seen a lot of people make a complete mess of circuit boards trying to solder wires onto chip pins or tiny tracks as their first time.

>can you tell me if gba vc works
>yes, i tried nes and gb games and they work!

I do enjoy my Wheaties.

Does freeshop guy being a pedo change anything? its open source right?

I assume they run in a similar VC environment, but lemme grab some gba game and test then. didn't have any installed. sorry :(

that wasn't me. anyway i'd love it if you can try them. try stuff that isnt on the shop, like sonic advance or something. my 3ds is my baby, i dont want to fuck with it if its not going to play my games

changes nothing

Well Cruel won't be maintaining it anymore, obviously.

GBA VC is completly different from the other consoles, and it's actually closer to DS mode since it works in the same way

yeah thats why im paying more for a specific nand clip and a pcb to connect it to the teensy. Still has sopldering but $60 here saves me from having to use 28 gauge wire 40 times on my ps3 (seems pretty bs honestly)

alrigty then, my bet is that since DS mode doens't work on this nightly it might not work then, but we'll see soon enough

homepass still work?

i hope they work.

Launched Sonic advance 3 and black screen.
Will try again when new nightly comes live

his darkweb servers hosted the freeshop updates so thers that

that fucker at the top of the thread lied to me. piece of shit.

thanks man. i wont be updating now

epic meme

I'd like to know the nightly build number you're using since as I tested.
the latest Luma 6.6-0eab9127 DS and GBA VC mode is NOT working.

god damn this shit better be fixed.

Freeshop seems to be working still but should it become outdated/unusable in the future what's the alternative? To update games and play online on 11.3 I mean.

CIAngel, unfortunately

ciangel. tikshop, installing tickets with fbi or getting the tickets and downloading from the eshop, there are many ways to do what freeshop does it's just the one that probably does it the easiest

So say I have an O3DS with 9.2 on sysnand and 11.2 on emunand ( yes I know, old method, don't care). Can I update the emunand to 11.4, do I have to update something else like Luma, or do I have to wait?

Welp. Hopefully some guy who doesn't mind getting associated with child porn keeps that thing alive.

I honestly think it's bad that people releasing these exploits when they are likely to work on Switch if they're not revealed to the public

>old method, don't care

You fucking should care, especially when RxTools, which you're probably using, is broken above 11.2.

>11.4 patched the exploits.

Some really cutting edge reporting there OP.

It's not like there's anything else that actually needs to be said desu

Remove music. Put on music through your phone.

What else is there to say anyway?

Brew my 3DS last night and downloaded a lot of games overnight.

I have 3 64g sd cards that im planning on filling with games.

What must have homebrew apps there is, besides fbi luma and freeshop?

There actually is, including details like Homebrew being broken on Old 3DS. You can be informative yet to the point like this guy Saying "11.3 is now supported" is actually vague to a degree where I don't see what you're going for in terms of trying to avoid using complete sentences.

Honestly, he's right. I should have included that it refers to the new 11.3 exploits and put a link at the very least.

Why not throw in a shoutout to this happening while you're at it? It was newsworthy.

wololo.net/2017/04/11/3ds-hack-nintendo-pushes-firmware-11-4-smealum-releases-kernel-exploit-firmware-11-3/

We can go into a little detail you know.

I agree

-New kernel exploit for 11.3 has been released. All 3DS models up to 11.3 can be modded. wololo.net/2017/04/11/3ds-hack-nintendo-pushes-firmware-11-4-smealum-releases-kernel-exploit-firmware-11-3/
-11.4 patched the new kernel exploit and soundhax. Don't update if you don't have CFW. 3dbrew.org/wiki/11.4.0-37
If you use stable the latest stable Luma release, DS mode will break. You have to use the latest nightly.
As usual, BootNTR broke, we can expect an update in the following days. hbl_loader works on the New 3DS, but doesn't on the original 3DS until it gets updated.

Gettin' much better, thanks. I would go so far as to echo what smea really said, which is don't expect O3DS Homebrew to work any time soon.

Oh and it may or may not be worth including, but I guess Soundhax broke and it has been heavily suggested you should download Swapdoodle if you want the next Homebrew exploit. We could wait till that comes out of course.

I don't use Rxtools, I use Luma, didn't you read ?

that's right, "no new payloads coming to OLD 3DS for a while"

my dstwo doesn't work on 11.4

Why would smealum release an exploit only after it was patched? Is he just trying to fuck with the community at this point?

i'm planning to buy the R4i gold thing for ds games , anyone here who already tested it on 11.4? i know that it should work on 11.3

He was always kind of a moralfag, along with yls8 who discovered it. They're not bad guys, just a little self-righteous I guess.

Because if they release it they know Nintendo is going to patch it. Instead, they wait for Nintendo to patch it first, so it lasts as long as possibile.

>If you use stable the latest stable Luma release, DS mode will break. You have to use the latest nightly.
What is a nightly? I'm pretty new to hacking, and only recently hacked my O3DSXL using soundhax. Currently on 11.3. Should I just delay updating right noW?

An open source project that gets updated often usually has a bot uploading a compiled version of the program every night, which might be unstable, because it hasn't been tested properly. That's what a nightly is.

Did you fukken update Luma to the nightly

You don't need to delay updating, follow the guide inthe OP and install a9lh + Luma.

sorry, im blind

It's open source. I doubt there will be too many major breakages anymore, and smaller breaks can be easily fixed and shared.

Either way as long as title key database is still up, the QR codes off that still work. And it's what everyone goes off of anyways

I'm pretty sure they reported the exploit to nintendo themselves, that's why Smea was so sure 11.4 was about to be released last week.

Why would they new that? Because of the new thing where Nintendo pays them for finding exploits?

Well give it a little time....

Because they're moralfags and they're trying to kill the 3ds scene is my guess, but I'm very stupid so don't listen to me.

Yeah, Smealum probably got a nice little paycheck. Fucking asshole.

Let us know if it actually works. It appears results are mixed.

I sincerely doubt they narc'd.

>chinks will never fix mai so it dumps axiom verge properly
How come this one random indie game is undumpable anyway? That's weird.
I don't want to buy it because I already bought it on steam, fug u

That's pretty legit as pirate justifications go.

thecruel is my new waifu

buttsex?

whats the minimum version firmware to play horizon zero dawn? theres a ps4 slim bundle with it that seems like a decent price but not if i have to drop 4.07 to play it. speaking of which why is progress taking so long even when we have the hack?

So GBA VC/DS is broken on n3ds.

yeah cross platform should be free or at the very least pay a small fee to own it on other platforms too

People with old 3ds seems to be okay while updating to 11.4 but n3ds users gets boot patching/gba vc/ds(i) broken in 11.4.

>updating

I still don't understand why people do this to themselves.

Because at least me i do it for testing to let people know whats broken or not if they so wish to update. Beside, nand backup is a thing

well that explain why were are getting mix results

For those who got their 3ds banned because of the pokemon bs. The latest public seed has been banned

I'm happy with it because future 3DS's that get bought will have hackable firmware. At the moment pretty much any new 3DS is at 11.2 at it's max, but I wouldn't be surprised if the next batch is 11.3. I don't think they'd have 11.4 on it since they probably made more 3DS's already.

>-Cruel, the FreeShop developer, was arrested (for reasons unrelated to piracy)
