Homebrew SigHax Updates and Discussion Thread

okay just saw that plailect also mentioned this

You can now hold (Start) + (Select) + (X) on boot to dump the ARM11 bootrom (boot11.bin), the ARM9 bootrom (boot9.bin), and your console unique OTP (OTP.bin) to the /boot9strap/ folder on your SD card (note that this will not have any kind of prompt or message).

get the boot9 keys???!!!

Sure, but they don't seem to be required for SigHax to function properly. Just a dev thing?

decrypt anything without a 3ds = boot9 keys are your key to this world

Sighax is worse then a9lh aside from the fact it can't be patched a9lh boots faster

Citation needed.

guys do you think with boot9 a custom os like linux or dingux will be bootable someday ?

A Linux proof of concept has been around for a while now.

Regarding decrypting CIAs: My ROM Properties Page shell extension does support partial decryption, but only enough to display the icon and header information. IIRC, the existing tools should be able to handle it once the keys are added in the right place.

Nice dude! Sorry to hear about your finger though...

I mean I like the n3ds but the start and select buttons are definately designed to hurt your finger when you press them a little stronger than you should, so now I have to deal with yellows8 boot9tools which are acting a little strange over here...

I believe this file is one that you can use if you happen to brick your 3ds in any way.
