Hacking [WIP] open source Kernel access on 3DS

[Deleted User]

Why has nobody done it then? That'd sure be very useful...

I could probably put something together quickly tomorrow. Maybe I'll try making a pull request for it as well, not sure if it'd get in, though.

At this point, it's so easy to get ARM11 kernel access via 3dsx/etc that I don't see piracy concerns being an issue.

Man that'd be lovely

How complicated do you think it would be to replace entirely sipderto/rohax with memchunkhax? Would be great to have ninjhax working on consoles without the browser.

More complicated than I'd like to attempt myself. Even setting up Ninjhax to build is a pain.

Still wondering why this isn't closed yet...

Probably very hard; I'm guessing that's the same reason why the reverse (aka spiderninja) isn't a thing.

Yeah that's what I thought, the 3ds scene is driving me mad with this no piracy/kernel thing...

Well you just have to deal with it, don't you now?

 

[powersaver]

I'll believe you when I see results!

Because anyone can say,

You and everyone else. Failing that, I'd love some feedback from mods as to why they think it shouldn't be closed.

If we're old enough to type on this forum, we should be old enough to not act like children. Let's keep it civil, respectful, and at least mildly constructive. Thanks.

Finally got some time to do it, here you go: https://www.dropbox.com/s/qxx29vka3qiyd14/3ds_hb_menu.3dsx?dl=0
And modified source (although it isn't a very big change): https://github.com/Steveice10/3ds_hb_menu

Note that this is by no means a proper solution to the issue. It would be much better to modify Ninjhax to use memchunkhax instead of spiderto/rohax, however that's not something that I currently plan to work on.

What can we do with that?

Considering most apps that require kernel or extra service access already acquire it themselves, not much for most apps. However, apps that don't support sound via Ninjhax on the New3DS should have sound when ran through that version of the launcher.

That's fantastic! Thank you very much

Just try it out and still have no song on N3ds (fw 9.0EU)

Completely forgot that, since the service access patching works by patching the PID to 0, reinitializing srv, and patching it back, this probably won't carry over to apps launched through the launcher. When the app initializes srv itself, the PID will no longer be 0. So, I guess this only gives apps kernel access ahead of time, which they can then use to acquire services themselves.

Knowing this, it would probably be better for apps to just integrate kernel patching themselves, as it is uncertain whether the app will be launched with kernel access or not. Of course, the best solution would be for Ninjhax to be modified to always give kernel access.

I don't know how you feel about piracy but knowing that I plan to create a rom loader don't know if I will share it or not,I don't know if I should wheater create a custom hb laucher that reconise .3ds file or if I should just create a rom loader or waist a lot of time on creating my own cfw
