Hi guys, a little confused about certain points.

1) So do I scan the QR codes with FBI, and that's all I need to install?
2) Is this safe (Can I brick myself because it's unstable and a .n3ds refused to boot?)
3) I understand it's a front-end, so will I need to install nds-bootstrap first?
4) Finally, is this functional on 11.3? (I am currently on 11.2 Luma3ds CFW.)

Thanks so much in advance!
  1. Hopefully.
  2. Yes, it's safe.
  3. You can install it with TWLoader.
  4. It works on every firmware version, except <8.1.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Just updated to the latest version.... its still freezing on the Black TWLoader splash screen....
Are you sure? The latest version should fix that problem.

Yeah I downloaded the latest version, manually replaced the files on my SD card, and told FBI to install both CIA which I'm hoping updated them, unless I have to uninstall them first or something.

Booted up the app, white animation, to black screen with TWLoader logo.... and nothing it stays frozen at that till I hard reset my Luma New3DS 11.2.0-35E.

(FYI @Robz8 )
the current release will work even from just the qr code for twloader itself.
you will need to go to settings to download bootstrap, the nand side cia will download and install automatically.

However nothing related to slot1 will work because neither ntr_launcher nor any of the flashcard nds files are downloaded.
The same is true for gbarunner.

tl;dr
only bootstrap for nds games will work when using only the qr code.

.... After creating "log.txt" it booted that was weird! Well thanks for that.
that shouldn't be happening, did you do a full clean install?

, Can you add a list mode by that i mean the games are in a list like a flashcards menu.
I think the whole point of this project is to mimic the DSi UI (and make DS games easier to launch for those who don't want to mess with forwarders)

I plan on adding themes, so it doesn't have to look like the DSi UI.
@Robz8 I'm still getting that issue where itll check the sd card for banner data after I updated to 3.3.1 do you have any ideas what I could try?
The issue actually is that it still shows the message for some users. You can try a fresh install of TWLoader.

I believe that you must firmat your SD card to have a 32kb partition size, some say it helps quite a lot. (Be sure to have a SD card data backup if you're going to do that)
(I formatted my sd card to 64kb partition size and every game stays at a white screen)

So guys,

I re-installed both CIAS from OP QR, i upgraded both nds loaders Official and Un-official.

I boot twl and start MKDS and i only get the DSI welcome screen, then it's a White screen..

I'm not using a flash card.

Is the game compatibility list still being updated?

Some users keep updating it ;)

Go to TWLoader settings, switch to NTR settings and change bootstrap release to unofficial or vice versa at least one time :)

No, after exiting settings pressing B settings are saved. Can you press X / Y on Settings again to re-download bootstrap again? Also do you have any slot-1 card in the slot?
Remeber to turn off ARM9 Lock and turn on WRAM boost :)
