Homebrew Installing Luma3ds and arm9loaderhax and now Decrypt9 won't run

Anthony D'Amico · May 1, 2016

Hi All,

Long time lurker first time poster.

I found this amazing article through a friend to install CFW. Everything was great until i got to step 5
https://github.com/Plailect/Guide/wiki/Part-5-(arm9loaderhax-&-Luma3DS)

After Completing Section 2 and installing arm9loaderhax, then completing section of Configuring Luma3ds, it appears that i cannot open decrypt9 to continue onto section 4.

When i try to open Decrypt9 by holding start during boot, my 3ds just loads the sysNAND and when i open Decrypt9 though homebrew the bottom screen just flashes a few colour then returns to the home brew channel (Same thing is happening with enuNAND9)

Has anyone expeienced this before? and if so what are my next steps? Im so close to finalising this compeleting this CFW and nothing has gone wrong until now.

BTW im using a old 3ds. the CFW is Luma3ds and i beleive it is still currently running v2.1 firmware on the RedNAND/EmuNAND as per step 4 in the guide)

Any Help would be greatly appreciated, I'll even buy you a virtual beer

Thank you in advance
Anthony

EDIT: I have downgraded Decrypt9 with no luck

I have also uploaded a video with the error i am receiving

I can't seem to link my youtube video for some reason. If you want to watch the video go to you tube and search w6ZnU0T6-9U which will bring up the video of my Blue 3ds
Sorry

EDIT 2:
Thanks to @pbanj i found a resolution

To any other users who may be experiencing this try removing the Luma3DS NTR firmware.bin file from the Luma folder in the root of the SD card.
Once this file was removed, i was able to boot Decrypt9 through homebrew and by holding start on boot

Post the list of the files on your sd(tree /F /A>list.txt)

What I've found is that the latest Decrypt9 release doesn't want to work on Luma3DS. I did the upgrade and lost the functionality. I ended up reverting back to the older version, and it works well.

Did you try updating to the latest nightly of Luma3DS @astrangeone

@astrangeone
I have tried downgrading the version of Decrypt9 but its no good

@Margen67
Thanks for the point, but why would the Luma3ds work with Decrypt9 through the entire install. But after loading the Arm9loader it casues it to stop working?

I have uploaded a video to show exactly what is happening when i try to open Decrypt9

Is the payloads folder inside the luma folder? From looking at the list its not.

Anthony D'Amico · May 2, 2016

Hi @pbanj

Thanks for taking a look. Yes i can confirm that the payloads folder is within the luma directory as follows E:\luma\payloads (E:\ is the root directory of my SD)

~~Considered this? https://github.com/AuroraWright/Luma3DS/wiki/Installation-and-Upgrade#upgrading-from-v531~~

Edit: Ignore this, you did

Wow.... That's odd. I have the NTR firmware.bin and it loads fine for me.... try updating both Luma3DS and re-downloading the firmware.bin file. Or just keep ignoring it if you don't plan to use NTR =P

You need to press L+whatever button you have set for the payload, so in your case that would be L+Start.

Cruzward19 · May 11, 2016

Hey guys.
So I'm having the same problem.

Tried removing firmware.bin from the luma folder.
Tried holding L+start.

Any other suggestions?

//////
EDIT

works if I use the hbl after removing the firmware.bin.

I wonder why holding start doesn't work.

Anthony D'Amico · May 11, 2016

@cruzward19

Have you tried updating luma to the latest release?

I experienced this error again whilst running Luma3ds 5.3.1 on N3DS
However after updating to v5.4 all the payloads work, without holding L as well

The best option is to restore your firm file and simply use luma3ds chainloader to launch decrypt9. The guide should have walked you through setting that up unless they recently changed it. Though I am betting it's just a file name issue. What did you name the decrypt 9 binary?
