It's been a while since I messed around with the 3DS scene, just gettin back into it. Trying to hack an O3DS 9.2 fw. Wondering about installing the Mset so I can just go in from the settings menu.
Better yet, you can install themehax and autoboot into CFW on boot.

The instructions are a little bit different for the o3DS but it works for that too, read post #5 for the differences.

Use this

And this (go to original thread)
Install themehax via browserhax ( http://yls8.mtheall.com/3dsbrowserhax.php )
Put homebrew starter kit in your sd card https://smealum.github.io/3ds/
Open the url on 3DS, zoom it and touch the far right side of slider.

Guys while we wait for @mid-kid to update CakeBrah with latest libkhax, here's a rxtools.3dsx to boot rxTools with homemenuhax. It works on both n3ds and o3ds, with the bottom screen working

For now, rxTools, CakesFW are the most popular CFWs for O3DS.
rxTools provides region-free, GBA VC support (and tons of decryption, dumping, injection tools).
CakesFW is cleaner in code-wise, and more stable than rxTools.
NTR CFW 3 runs on another CFW and it gives us more hacky things.
And themehax allows us to launch homebrew launcher while booting, and it is the fastest way to get CFWs to work.

CakeBrah is part of CakesFW which helps to run via homebrew launcher.

To get your first cia installed just run ninjhax twice and use the 3dsx version of FBI.
Detail:
Run ninjhax 2 via themehax (recommend default hold L to launch version)
Run rxtools launcher .3dsx, bootinto into cfw mode (while holding L so when it resets you launch ninjhax again)
select 3dsx version of FBI.
install a CIA installer

TwoSpikedHands:
yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done -
@
TwoSpikedHands:
I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?

Sicklyboy:
@TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one -
@
Sicklyboy:
I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
@Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!

@
TwoSpikedHands:
I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though

@
The Real Jdbye:
@TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway -
@
The Real Jdbye:
and realistically they wouldn't
be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves -

do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files
) -

@The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)

when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying
