How to install HomemenuHax on O3DS and N3DS

Notes: This method cannot currently run all homebrew. You need to already have a way of entry into homebrew for this.THIS WILL NOT WORK WITH CUSTOM THEMES.

I didn't make this app.

If you want the inverse of this (like auto booting to HBM), look here. (The inverse is by Steveice.)


This is my first tutorial

Okay, so to start off, we need to download the boot.3dsx file; this is the file used for the homebrew menu. You may choose to use the default boot file, found here, or a modified boot file like the homebrew launcher with the grid layout. Put this on the root of your SD card. (This should already be there if you have used homebrew before.)

Next, we want to download this homebrew app. This is what will trigger the exploit upon startup if certain conditions are made. In this case, it is if the L button is pressed at startup. Put that folder after extraction into the 3DS folder.

Now run the App from the 3DS homebrew exploit of your choice and then follow the on screen instructions from there.


Now when you boot up your 3DS, press and hold L and the system should run the exploit!

I followed the instructions to a T. I'm running a New 3DS on 9.9.0-26 E, and I always seem to get this error when I attempt to install HomeMenuHax. Here's a screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/xjHNk6M.jpg
Try switching to an actual DLC theme on the home menu, then switching to no theme (Standard) then try again.

Im having that issue except now that the new updates have come out, I can't download themes because it prompts me with a message telling me to update my system. What do I do?

On second thought I might not be having the same error my screen says (the part that I can read)

Reading SaveData.dat...
Generating a ThemeManage.bin + writing it to extdata...
Error 0xc8804470 was returned while attempting to open the file for writing, attempting file-creation...
Reading body-data...
Writing body-data...

and then it says

Generating a ThemeManage.bin + writing it to extdata...
Error 0xc8804470 was returned while attempting to open the file for writing, attempting file-creation...

a couple more times

  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    The croissant crust is still available though, but not quite as good imo.
