    Hacking Share your custom Hekate bootlogo thread

    Okay, cool. With a little bit of clarification, this really should be added to the first post. Forgive me if others have already asked, but would you care to detail where exactly you can replicate what you did in Gimp for others unfamiliar with (yet willing to try) the program? Found it in...

    Hacking Discussion ace3ds team made new version of AceNS dongle

    God this looks amazing, at least on paper anyway. Then again, I've only begun to dive into Switch hacks... But at least in my opinion, this looks in every way superior to the SX Gear. Just maybe not as stylish.

    Hacking PS3 Firmware 4.82 Released

    Hacking Is this a faulty SD2Vita?

    Hard for me to say if it's faulty or not as I seem to have misplaced mine. But I recommend against these "smiley" adapters. Lay it flat next to an original PSVita cartridge and you'll see what I mean: The PCB is way too thick where the connection pins are compared to the original cartridge's PCB...

    Hacking Is it possible to backup an R4 before it becomes bricked ?

    FYI: The label itself is what makes it suspect as a possible fake. They are no longer produced with the "v6.1" mark on them, so that should raise a red flag if you purchased it recently... I have only injected ntrboot on recent authentic cartridges and they look like this: I've done about 12...

    Hacking Been away from 3DS hacking - Gateway question

    Going to have to echo what's already been said: Gateway is dead. They have seemingly ditched it for what appears to be their new product, Stargate 3DS. I don't recommend Stargate either though, unless you prefer a traditional feeling flashcart experience. I also have a Gateway, but...

    Hacking Custom Logo for R4i

    Personally, I like the Luma 3DS logo. I understand how it's not directly related, but as a newbie my goal was Luma 3DS and my method was ntrboot. I have a feeling other newbies would feel similarly, especially seeing as the ultimate goal of 3ds.guide is to get a newbie running Luma 3DS. On the...

    Hacking NTRboothax installed via r4i onto 11.5U won't work. Help??

    This might help... A checklist to make sure you're doing everything from 3ds.guide right: And yes, like others have suggested, ditch the video. Just use 3ds.guide instead.

    Hacking 2 Vitas 3G Oled 3.60 & Slim wifi 3.65, sell or keep Slim. And a few Questions

    True, but Rejuvinate was incredibly lame compared to what Henkaku has become. The Vita has basically been blown wide open at this point. The only way I can see Henkaku being ported to higher firmwares is if the equivalent of the 3DS' ntrboothax (or the PSP's Pandora Battery) is discovered...

    Hacking 2 Vitas 3G Oled 3.60 & Slim wifi 3.65, sell or keep Slim. And a few Questions

    I wouldn't bank on Henkaku being ported to a firmware greater than 3.60. If you want homebrew, keep the Phat 3G model. Like others have suggested, you can also opt to keep the slim for legit online play. Be on the lookout for official/unofficial psvsd adapters for your 3G vita. They're...

    Hacking Is possible to use the 3g to micro sd and the sd2vita at sme time to have maximum storage?

    Big thanks for the nice and large images! And oh yeah, I'm just inspecting the traces for cuts and any evidence of hand soldering. I certainly don't see any cuts on yours (none on mine either), but the front left corner of the microSD socket appears to have been manually soldered. Which is...

    Hacking Is possible to use the 3g to micro sd and the sd2vita at sme time to have maximum storage?

    Make that three. Read the tail end of this blog post on Yifan Lu's website and you'll see that he auctioned them off in some sort of lottery system. He said he was doing this as a means to get them in the hands of people who really want them. I offered $60 for one and was fairly quickly issued...

    Yes, others have reported the PHYSICAL copy's dump as working. I'm specifically reporting the digital copy's dump as working. :)

    Hacking Vitamin & Mai Dump Compatibility list

    Dropping a line to say that I have the digital version of WipEout 2048. I've dumped it fine, just need to test. I'll be back with results later-- I also have FFX-2 HD that I'm testing first for a different site I can't discuss here.

    Hacking Gateway support for Firmware 9.0 – 9.2 Coming

    (edit: I interpreted this as a reference to Sky3DS; Now I realize you might be referencing the profile exploit from FW 4.1-4.5) I want to agree with you (and did, actually), but I noticed a flaw in the theory: If this new GW update only runs on 4.1-4.5 or 9.0-9.2 (note that there is no...

    Hacking Gateway support for Firmware 9.0 – 9.2 Coming

    Take a closer look at the source you're quoting: Gateway said: We recommend the following to our interested users: If you are on native System Firmare 4.5, then please stay at this version. If you are on native System Firmware 5.0 or higher, then please update to 9.0.0-20, 9.1.0-20J or...

    Hacking Gateway support for Firmware 9.0 – 9.2 Coming

    EmuNAND supports the latest firmware and it's incredibly easy to set up and use-- You actually have better compatibility with 4.5 SysNAND and 9.2 EmuNAND. I see why you might think 9.2 SysNAND might be better, but that's not the reality of the situation. In regards to an exploit in the latest...

    Hacking Gateway support for Firmware 9.0 – 9.2 Coming

    I also feel it's most likely the case that they're using the same or similar method to Sky3DS... but like anyone else talking about it now, I don't have any "proof" either. Someone may have pointed it out before, but Sky3DS isn't the only security breach 9.0-9.2 has seen. It's unlikely that GW...
