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.

Which CFW is the best to go with that has the most features and fewest restrictions? I'd love to see a PvC of all CFW

Use this
https://github.com/roxas75/rxTools/releases

And this (go to original thread)
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 ;)

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.

So many cfws... Rx tools, cake, cakebrah, ntr, the list goes on and on...
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.

So I've got my emunand formatted, and need to install a cia installer. Is FBI the best one to go for?
Devmenu and FBI are equivalent I think..
If you are going to use MSET (settings) exploit, FBI is the best choice since it supports exploit installation.

I would use FBI, but every time I try to install something, it fails. I couldn't even use the .3ds version to install the .cia version.

128 gb card works with bbm as long as you have less than about 95 gb. If you don't have enough cias to install just put temporary dummy files.

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

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."
