I am just quickly setting up legends of exidia, godmode9.nds and the dsiwarehaxinstaller to make a little video that shows exactly, that running a payload by dsiware gives nand rw acces, so safesighaxinstaller will also come in .nds format so fairly simple to use

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


I have actually recorded a whole video showing the process of dsiwarehax, but I should better set it to unlisted, people should not follow video guides

So since FBI doesn't work anymore, there is no way of doing this anyways? Or would I do this on the hacked 3ds..?

yes cakehax
didn't upload it, since I also realized that it is the cakehax rop installer, but I can still do so
Lol
okay so here you go, the video shows gaining arm9 access through arm9loaderhax+luma chainloader and then through dsiwarehax

Wasn't the MSET exploit patched?
You can only write/read the nand from here (and use the know plaintext exploit to modify the NATIVE_FIRM), this isn't really arm9 access.

I don't understand what you mean by that

Considering that FBI doesn't work on stock 3ds OS, would doing this mean buying the dsiware on the already hacked 3ds and injecting, THEN system transferring it over? That would seem pretty smart, actually. How does the game create an exploit, though?

The game does not create an exploit

This uses an small oversight of Nintendo, it does not check if the DSIWare .App you use is the same one as the one you bought

For example, let's say I bought any DSIWare game, then I downloaded Fieldrunners from the internet, with Fieldrunners I can copy it's .app and paste it on the DSIWare I bought. Making the game I bought exploitable since for the 3DS it still appears as the game you bought, but since you changed its .app to the Fieldrunners, it will load Fieldrunners.

(I may be wrong, but this is really how I remember how the exploit worked...)

yep in my case I used to inject legends of exidia when I used dsiwarehax on a friends 3ds. two weeks before the 33c3....

I see...so then if I used this method, I could get A9LH on my 3ds?

In my case, I was curious enough to run Sudokuhax on my 3DS (injected it to the DS connections part of the System Settings)

I uninstalled A9LH and tried to run it...It never ran...

This exploit would be better for people that accidentally updated and lost its chance to regain CFW, but had this exploit and a A9LH'd NAND backup just in case something happened.

They can restore the Backup using this exploit and regain A9LH

just if you are under 11.3 but if you are then you can simply use the regular guide without buying anything

So then answer my question please. If I have 11.3, will literally anything work with a stock OS or a nand backup?

As I said just now

This is more now for A9LH people that somehow lose it

You can use this for later on when Sighax releases, skipping the need for a hardmod.

But you would need an already hacked 3DS to transfer the hacked DSIWare app..
