Tutorial  Updated

Using Luma3DS + Gateway on B9S


SYSNAND-ONLY USERS: DO NOT BOOT GW MODE ON 11.3+ - YOU WILL LOSE B9S AND BE LEFT ON A STOCK FIRMWARE
I highly advise against the use of GW on SysNAND-Only Setups.
GW currently DOES NOT support firmwares 11.3//11.4 - B9S does not change that!
If you're on 11.3+ - Don't even try to use GW. Use Luma3DS or any other CFW that has confirmed support for 11.3+ firmwares.



Setting up GW with Luma3DS' chainloader

Requirements: SysNAND or EmuNAND on 11.2 or lower!
Tested and working on B9S 1.2 (Luma3DS 8.0)
  1. Download the v2gw.zip attached to this post.
  2. Extract the "arm9loaderhax.bin" from v2gw.zip to your /luma/payloads/ folder.
  3. Rename that very "arm9loaderhax.bin" you just extracted to "v2gw.bin" or to whatever you want. However, step 12 will assume v2gw.bin was used, you can edit that reference to meet whatever you decided to name it.
  4. Download GW's ‘arm9loaderhax.bin.zip‘ file.
    • On their main home page. Under the post titled: "GATEWAY 4.0B PRIVATE BETA #2"
    • Or on their openly public Private Beta Program page, on this page it'll be under the "» arm9loaderhax for users with existing a9lh installs" section.
  5. Extract GW's "arm9loaderhax.bin" file from their zip file to your /luma/payloads/ folder.
  6. Rename that very "arm9loaderhax.bin" you just extracted to "gateway.bin"
  7. Make sure you have the latest GW's Launcher.dat on the root of your SD Card.
  8. This dev-build of BootCTR9: https://gbatemp.net/threads/release-the-bootctr9-release-thread.435347/page-3#post-7370533
  9. Extract the "boot.firm" file from the BootCTR9-firmv2.zip to your /luma/payloads/ folder.
  10. Rename that very "boot.firm" you just extracted to "down_BootCTR9.firm" or to whatever you want that is allowed by Luma3DS' payload chainloader.
    - Other button options: https://github.com/AuroraWright/Luma3DS/wiki/Other-features-and-notes#payload-chainloading
  11. Extract the "boot_config.ini" file from from the BootCTR9-firmv2.zip to the root of your SD Card.
  12. Open the "boot_config.ini" file and overwrite everything with the following:
    Code:
    [BOOTCTR9]
    key_delay = 1000
    
    [DEFAULT]
    path = /luma/payloads/v2gw.bin
  13. You are now done. If you followed this tutorial, holding DPAD-DOWN at boot time, will load up Gateway Mode.
    - SysNAND-Only Users on 11.2 will be prompted to press 'L+R+SELECT' to boot SYSNAND. DO NOT PRESS THE BUTTON PROMPT ON 11.3+
    - GW EmuNAND users will automatically boot into their GW EmuNAND.


FAQ

Q: How do I boot into the GW Menu?
A: Hold L+Select, as soon as you see the Dragon Logo.

Q: Can I use my GW Blue Card?
A: Yes, but only while using Luma3DS. It will not work in GW Mode.

Q: Can I play online while in GW Mode?
A: Yes, sort-of. But you have to either:

Q: I'm getting a black screen!? HELP!?
A: Multiple reasons for that below:
  • Modified SecureInfo_A - GW does not patch this. You'll need an untouched donor file of this.
  • Using a RedNAND - GW only supports GW EmuNAND, it cannot boot RedNAND. Use the GW Menu or GodMode9 to make one.
  • On SysNAND-Only Setups - Not having properly removed EmuNAND//RedNAND. Use GodMode to properly format your SD Card. But I advise you set one up.
  • Trying to boot an 11.3//11.4 EmuNAND - GW does not support anything higher than 11.2
  • If it's not listed, then who knows. Do you have a modified Home Menu or font? Those might not work at all in GW Mode.

I highly advise against the use of GW for SysNAND-Only setups.

11.3&11.4 Break GW. GW currently DOES NOT support 11.3 or 11.4. You will either brick or lose A9LH. More than likely it seems you will just lose A9LH.


Again, if you attempt to boot GW Mode, on a SYSNAND-Only Setup while on 11.3 or 11.4, you will lose A9LH. It does not matter if you safely updated to this firmware via another CFW that safely protects FIRM.

If you want to use 11.3+, you will not be able to use GW. Don't even try. Only use Luma3DS or other CFW that support 11.3+

If you are a Gateway3DS user, and have recently finished Plailect's A9LH Guide, then you should be on v2 A9LH. Unfortunately, at the time this thread was made, GW's a9lh.bin file is incompatible with Luma3DS' payload chainloading feature while on v2 A9LH.

So one way around this was to either forego using Luma3DS' payload chainloading, and use a boot manager that does work in initializing GW's a9lh.bin correctly. Like BootCTR9. Either you let BootCTR9 handle all payloads, or you set it up to chainload into Luma3DS and from there let Luma3DS do all the work.

Either way, some people might not like BootCTR9 (Big fan of BootCTR9, seriously thing is amazing~!)

So if you don't want to use the BootCTR9 method, then @Hayleia made a very stripped down boot manager that only loads /luma/payloads/gateway.bin. You still need GW's a9lh.bin in addition to this stripped down bootmanager, but that's all you need, these two files! No need for messy configs if you just want to stick with Luma3DS' payload chainloader.


Now on to the damn tutorials already~!



Gateway Logo


1. Download the v2gw.zip attached to this post.
2. Extract the "arm9loaderhax.bin" from v2gw.zip to your /luma/payloads/ folder.
3. Rename that very "arm9loaderhax.bin" you just extracted to "down_v2gw.bin" or to whatever you want that is allowed by Luma3DS' payload chainloader.
Other button options: https://github.com/AuroraWright/Luma3DS/wiki/Other-features-and-notes#payload-chainloading
4. Download GW's ‘arm9loaderhax.bin.zip‘ file.
You have to get this directly from Gateway's site. Which is either:
A) On their main home page.
B) Or on their openly public Private Beta Program page, on this page it'll be under the "» arm9loaderhax for users with existing a9lh installs" section.
5. Extract GW's "arm9loaderhax.bin" file from their zip file to your /luma/payloads/ folder.
6. Rename that very "arm9loaderhax.bin" you just extracted to "gateway.bin"
7. Make sure you have the latest GW's Launcher.dat on the root of your SD Card.
8. You are now done. If you followed this tutorial, holding DPAD-DOWN at boot time, will load up Gateway Mode.
However, if you are a SysNAND Only User, and on 11.1 and using the 4.2 Launcher.dat, you will be prompted to press 'L+R+SELECT' to boot SYSNAND.
GW EmuNAND users will automatically boot into their GW EmuNAND.

Notes: To Boot into the GW Menu: Hold L+Select, as soon as you see the Dragon Logo.
To Force a Manual Gateway3DS RedCard Update: Hold R+Select as soon as you see the Dragon Logo.




No Gateway Logo (Not Recommend - Only for those allergic to the dragon logo - USE AT YOUR OWN RISK)

Notes: This version will de-init the screen by default, and as such you won't see the Gateway Logo. Don't worry it'll init once you land on the Home. Due to how this works, only GW EmuNAND users should consider using this. This is because SysNAND users will land on the SysNAND prompt nag.

1. Download the v2gw-de-init.zip attached to this post.
2. Extract the "v2gw.bin" from v2gw-de-init.zip to your /luma/payloads/ folder.
3. Rename that very "v2gw2.bin" you just extracted to "down_v2gw.bin" or to whatever you want that is allowed by Luma3DS' payload chainloader.
Other button options: https://github.com/AuroraWright/Luma3DS/wiki/Other-features-and-notes#payload-chainloading
4. Download GW's ‘arm9loaderhax.bin.zip‘ file.
You have to get this directly from Gateway's site. Which is either:
A) On their main home page.
B) Or on their openly public Private Beta Program page, on this page it'll be under the "» arm9loaderhax for users with existing a9lh installs" section.
5. Extract GW's "arm9loaderhax.bin" file from their zip file to your /luma/payloads/ folder.
6. Rename that very "arm9loaderhax.bin" you just extracted to "gateway.bin"
7. Make sure you have the latest GW's Launcher.dat on the root of your SD Card.
8. You are now done. If you followed this tutorial, holding DPAD-DOWN at boot time, will load up Gateway Mode without the Gateway Logo.


Tested on N3DS and O3DS by me, 2DS by @Hayleia.
Should work on either screen-init or non-screen-init v2 A9LH.



Important Note: Never update your SysNAND in Gateway Mode. It does not matter what Launcher.dat version you use, if you go ahead and update while in SysNAND Mode, you will either brick or lose A9LH+CFW and be on the latest stock firmware. This is because GW Mode does not offer FIRM protection in A9LH. Updating your GW EmuNAND is fine and safe, and is what Gateway actually recommends you do and use even when using A9LH.



!~Getting Black Screen After Dragon Logo and After Following This Guide~! (PLEASE READ)
Sounds like someone hasn't properly removed their EmuNAND//RedNAND with EmuNAND9. The Black Screen problem is common to people who skipped doing it properly and used a third-party tool like EaseUS or any other partition manager.

Since EmuNAND//RedNAND wasn't removed properly, traces were leftover and GW by default sees it, and tries to boot into this non-existent EmuNAND//RedNAND and fails. So how do we fix it? We use EmuNAND9 to preperly remove traces of it.

Part 5, Section V of the old A9LH guide covers this. However, I will list all relevant steps here.
Link: https://github.com/Plailect/Guide_R...ax)#section-v---removing-rednand-from-your-sd

The new guide also sort of mentions if in this new page, and does show you how to setup EmuNAND9:
Link: https://plailect.github.io/Guide/move-emunand

Files we'll need:
Latest release of EmuNAND9: https://github.com/d0k3/EmuNAND9/releases/latest

1. Copy EmuNAND9.bin from the EmuNAND9.zip to the /luma/payloads/ folder on your SD card and rename EmuNAND9.bin to y_EmuNAND9.bin
2. Backup every file on your SD card to a folder on your computer, all files will be deleted in the following steps
3. Reinsert your SD card into your 3DS
4. Hold (Y) at boot time to open EmuNAND9
5. Go to "SD Format Options...", then select the "Format SD (no EmuNAND)" option, and wait for it to finish
6. Press (B) to return to the menu, then press Select to safely eject your SD Card
7. Put your SD card back into your computer, and copy all the files you backed up previously, back into your SD Card
8. Reinsert your SD card into your 3DS, then press (Start) to reboot



Additional Note: You will still have to look into BootCTR9 if for some reason you want GW to be the default, as opposed to Luma3DS. This tutorial is meant more for the people who want Luma3DS as their main//default, and want to use Luma3DS' payload chainloader to boot into GW Mode.
Go to the following link for the tutorial on setting up GW as your main with BootCTR9.

thanks i'm downloading 11.2.9-999E is good for gateway card? how i install now? it have 111 cias

also i was getting arm11 error with cursed castilla and latest luma firmware, after making import seed from FBI now instead it crash on 3ds logo, how i can run this game? installed from freeshop
11.2.0-35 is fine.
Be careful and dont install cia that begin with 2 (it's for NEW3ds) and vise versa
arm11 I don't receive before, but I read somewhere that you need change some options in boot (before console load in sys-emunand). I think it was about boost or something.
I never imported any seeds and install games from freeshop without it and they plays fine.
+I never played cursed castilla, Castlevania not my thing, Maybe it's need higher frimwhere?

Would download it now and check it, then report about it you. Which region atm?
Hmm... Nope, don't see it there :\

PS: If you download it through ciaabgel then you would get crash, normal installation of cias and freeshop works fine

Don't use what you just downloaded. It's grabbing the wrong files because you typed the version in wrong. Type in "11.2.0-35E" to make sure it grabs the right files. And you need to use SysUpdater to install the files. Place them in a folder named "updates" on your card once you have the right ones, then run SysUpdater and choose the update option.

Wait, there's actually a new Castlevania? I'll have to check that out. Try setting up Luma's region emulation. Details here.

hej kazuma, i think your included clean sd card batch files erases the script files. or i did something wrong. but after using the batch my scripts were missing and i just had to copy them to the sd card again. what is the cleaning batch supposed to erase anyways`? hope it didnt erase something other important i didnt realize :D

also another question. i just exported my save file from my original animal crossing card and wanted to install as cia save, im confused again. do i have to set some kind of sav file into the sd card again with the title id of the savemanager? because when i click on cia save and then the game it tells me no archive found.

and another strange thing, when i try to que download in cia angel it never works. when i press a to start downloading the batch it shows an error. i always have to download file after file. is that a known problem?

The batch file's only purpose is to delete the old configuration files before installing new versions of the AIO. Everything else is handled by the scripts. You should be fine if you copy the configuration folder and extra options you're using back.

An original game should work just like a type 2 ROM does. You should just be able to copy it over. Try backing the save up again and make sure you do it in SysNAND. It's possible GW's redirection could have messed the process up if you did it in GW mode.

I think it is a known issue. I'll check with cearp and see if he has a solution. From what most people have told me, Freeshop is better for batch queues, but CIAngel tends to be more stable, has never crashed on them, etc.

now i have downloaded the same update but for old3ds with 3dnus and i have 133 cias now, is ok?

btw chinese bastrds never updated the gw again as they saw that the future of hacking was only cfw......and put in the ass to all their customers. i hate them, of course never replied to my emails.

That's the right number of files. So you should be good to go. And what can I say? I think they may have hung us out to dry this time. But I can't say I didn't get my money's worth out of the device I guess.

And I checked out a review of the game you mentioned. Another hard as hell indie game (do indie titles define success by the number of people they prevent from beating them or something?). At least this one's somewhat honest about it, unlike Battle Kid and Binding of Isaac, which masquerade as Mega Man and Zelda clones. This mimics Ghosts & Goblins. You can see you've probably got 15 seconds to live immediately ;)

ok then ill try again later with the save backup. also is it possible to backup the cia save files in a similar manner as gw does, so that if i change a whole system i can just kinda copy them back and use them again? is this the case when i just backup the save folder with the dat files inside, which are created by the savemanager? are those system independant?

Both JKSM and SDF store the saves in decrypted form. Just copy over either the "JKSV" or "filer" folder (respectively) to the card for the system you want to transfer the saves to. You can even upload them for other people to use. Note that JKSM tends to be the preferred format for sharing, and rightfully so. It's easier to use, and allows multiple saves with names so you remember what they're for. So you're not like, which Cubic Ninja save is this? You can check the name and know, it's Ninjhax 2.8 for an N3DS, for example. But I keep SDF around because it's the "official" dev kit app. Just in case JKSM doesn't work with something (though that hasn't happened yet).

I put a Binding of Isaac one up on that iso site's save section, for example. It's a hard game to get everything unlocked in. It took me about a month to do even having found every relative offset with Gateway's cheat finder (though some of that time did involve finding said offsets). And sometimes it wasn't finding the offset so much as figuring out what it does. Like the black soul heart offset. I found it quickly, but it took me some time to realize that it was reverse binary mask (if you've got 1 black heart and 2 soul hearts, it's value is 1 -- 100 reversed is 001, if you've got 2 soul hearts and 1 black heart, it's value is 4 -- 001 reversed is 100, if you've got 3 black hearts, it's value is 7). There was even a hidden joke in there -- items that charge over time have to be set to 6E instead of 64 to be full (110% as opposed to 100%).

ok it worked great. thank you :). one other question. im pretty sure its not possible, but when i backuped all the games and saves with gw back in the day, most saves didnt work because of some restrictions. i dont have some of the games anymore so i cant just rip the old save again with the jksm. its not possible to make use of the old save backups of gw which didnt work with gw after all back then?

If they're backups from original carts, those only tend to work with said original carts. You could try padding the save to 524,288 bytes with a hex editor and see if it works. Don't hold your breath though.

Well, SysNAND is on the actual system, so, all you really need to backup when upgrading cards is the EmuNAND and the card's contents. Of course, you would have to format EmuNAND on a new card first, so you'll have the partition to restore it to. Godmode9 doesn't currently have restore scripts (I've been working on getting some approved by d0k3, and I'm planning to include them in R6), but an easy way to restore an EmuNAND for the moment is to mount the backup and copy "nand_minsize.bin" from the I: drive to the E: drive.

hej kazuma,me again :(. i have a bigger sd card now, so could you specify again how to transfer everything? i dont get the nand_minsize.bin and changing of drive letters thing at all...and im a little afraight to break something with the emunand and gw since im now at the latest fw...thanks!

EDIT: or is it easier, just copying everything over to the new sd, then loading the GW menu (with the card not inserted for security), then formating emunand, then copy over all tickets from sysnand, then booting emunand with reinand, then downgrade system to 11.2?

You don't have to copy everything over just to format the card. Just copying the configuration over is enough to get booted into GW and use the formatting tool. From there, just copy the card's contents over. You could backup EmuNAND on the old card, and then restore it on the new card (using either the new restore scripts in GM9, or by mounting it to a drive and copying nand_minsize.bin from the I: drive to the E: drive). Though it may actually be faster to just downgrade the new EmuNAND, since it should already have all of your tickets from SysNAND.

when i boot now into gw while holding down b, it asks me som,ething about want to boot gw fastboot: sysnand?
but i cant access the format menu...

No, when you see the light grey screen, release B, then hold L+select. That should bring up the menu. You should NEVER press the fastboot combo. That's will kill your exploit and put you on retail.

that worked. could you elaborate on what is happening with these combos?
also the tickets for emunand are still there even after formatting the new emunand? and sysdowngrade is achieved with reinand, am i correct?

GW made that the combo for accessing the menu with the last version. It used to just be L before. You could use ReiNAND since it boots EmuNAND by default. Or you could hold L to boot EmuNAND with Luma. Either will work. When GW formats EmuNAND, it clones your SysNAND to it. So, any tickets on SysNAND will get transferred.
