yes, but you should already be on the latest version making them irrelevent, not all carts have them, mainly ones with internet useage, all release titles and some following dont, (oot3d, mario 3d land). also the updates cant be installed unless you give the system permission to do so, so i dont see how that would be something to watch out for anyway
Oot3ds comes with 1.1.0 and Mario 3d land with 3.0.0; LewieP was asking what he should look out for in the future. And as it isn't known what future firnware updates will do; watching for cart updates and systwm updates via settings are things to look out for.

But yes, as of now there's nothing to look out for - excepting accidentially running an arm9 payload and messing things up with those.

NTR CFW 3.4 Preview 2 (New3DS Only)
released this on Mar 28
This is a New3DS-Only preview release. Do not try it with Old3DS.

So did you just ignore the warrning for curiosity or you honestly didn't care cause you wanted back light control.

I personally dunno why is there, if it works fine, but i guess is your system to do what you want. Nice job brave soldier ^_^

Also again is not Each screen, just at same time.

Looking at Luma3DS code, it seems possible. Just need to set it properly somewhere, what do you think? Luma3DS Options menu? Or is there another UI for that?

EDIT: Is it possible to play around with Luma3DS without flashing to SysNAND? (Don't want to brick my 3DS this soon!)

i dunno, i suppose the menu but maybe ask the creator, or try corbenik, it could be useful to that cfw as well.

can you tell me where that is?

Delete boot.3dsx on your SD card, and replace it with this
You should boot into the homebrew launcher. Open menuhax_manager
From there, select Configure/check haxx trigger. Select type 1, hold down on the Dpad, then tap the touchscreen. Menuhax will now work on boot, only when DPad down is held
Now, do steps 1-3 here, then finish the guide starting from step 12 (In other words start from Part 3, and skip steps 4-11 there. Do everything else)
When I replaced the boot.3dsx file, it booted into my emunand like normal. I can open Homebrew Launcher myself as I installed the CIA of it onto my emuNAND. Should I access menuhax_manager from there?

So I bought a O3ds which is currently on ver. 7.2.0-10U and I want to update it to 9.0-9.5 but not above. I read that this can be done by finding a cartridge that has that update on it and do it that way. So I tracked down a game with firmware 9.2 (cooking mama: bon appetit) but when I popped in the game it just loaded right up, didn't ask to update at all. Then I tried with my wifi turned on and connected, still no update prompt. Am I missing something here?

ur firm may be high enough to run the game so it doesnt check for an update, triforce heroes can go to 9.6 iirc then downgrade to 9.2 then install a9lh and update to 11.0 and install spider 28 browser

Ok, I have a question about a VERY specific case that needs answering.

I have recently acquired a used 3DS that has been system transfered (aka it currently has a clean, stock NAND). It is at 11.0
I also have a 2DS at firmware 9.2.0 with an EmuNAND on some outdated version of RXTools pre sig patching.
I would like to follow Plailect's guide for a DSiWare downgrade.
However, the guide mentions a) backing up some sort of A9LH thingy on 3DS #1 (the 2DS which is not A9LH'd), and b) backing up stuff from the SD card of 3DS #2 (which has already been formatted, and shouldn't have anything important... right?...)

Can anyone help me figure out how I would need to modify the guide to fit my particular use case? For those that don't know, this is the one I'm referring to.

it mentions a sysnand backup, it just makes you rename it to sysnand-a9lhax.bin, use decrypt9 to backup ur sysnand, you really should install a9lh on ur 2ds. refer to my signature and u will have all of those on ur 2ds.

I would, but I'm still a LITTLE worried about the extra risk of brick on a 2DS and the fact that technically it is no longer mine, but my sister's

Edit: Also, is the point of the SysNAND backup just so that you get everything back the way it was after the format+transfer?

Just boot into sysnand with rxtools and use godmode9 for hbl im sure you need to update your sysnand to system transfer (i think)

  • TwoSpikedHands @ 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 @ 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 @ 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
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ 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 @ 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
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    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 :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @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)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

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

    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too

    yes looks like an faulty sd

    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards
