Hacking 3DS NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

I dont think thats the issue. Browserhax functions, its likely a theme issue. Thats what im assuming. But i cannot be certain.

did you take the folders out of the starter.zip*

Haha nope cant do that, patched on 10.6. Uhhh, do you have pokemon ORAS? or Oot?

Is this some sort of unseen incompatibility with my specific firmware?
I bought this damned thing just today all excited about doing this xD, I hope I'm not stuck with a "peasant" 3ds :\

I have ocarina of time, however I dont have powersaves or wtvr it's called(some sort of way to connect the cartridge to the computer?) or another 3ds with homebrew

You dont need powersaves.. Back up your saves real quick, and put the cart in and boot up browserhax, you should be able to install oothax using the sploit installer included with starter.zip, (aka the install.3dsx)

THANK YOU, YESSS!
Just a question? This will always be my entrypoint right? Booting up OoT and loading the hacked save?

NP, Just install and run downgrade using plaisysupdater from there. Hit me up if something goes wrong,
Ive done enough arm9loaderhax setups to know what im doing. (side note)
you can install any secondary hax if you can get into any hack method available. just a heads up!

It can be (you have to update it for every version), but start with downgrading on this, after that use browserhax and install menuhax. The themehax is much less picky than the new one it seems. (Didnt mean to double post, sorry plz no ban merciful mods.)

Hello again, I have successfully installed A9LH on my 2DS. However I got a bigger SD card and would like to use it Instead, but when I copied all the files to the new SD card and booted the system FBI and the HB Launcher were missing along with a custom theme I had Installed. Is there a process to migrate SD cards or am I stuck using my old SD ?

Are you using an emuNAND? If so you have to back it up and reinject on the new card. If you don't, copying and pasting all the files is sufficient.

Nope I deleted the Emunand after flashing it to the SysNand during Plailect's guide.

I am stuck with a partial downgrade, It didnt complete the downgrade to 9.2 and now I cant get the Oothax to boot into homebrew again, should I redo the browserhax thing for a new save file, even with a partial downgrade?

Thats completely normal. Its because there is no savedata created yet on that 3ds for themes.
Your gonna have to reinstall it.

Absolutely, enter browserhax and redo the downgrade from there. No need for panic. (if your gonna use oot install for 9.2)
Edit: I double posted again.. sorry!

But that's just for the custom theme right ? It shouldn't affect the Installed CIA's like FBI and HB Launcher right ?

Yup, just the theme. There should be no further issues.
Edit: Wish me luck, gonna do something stupid.

So, I attempted to put Luma3DS on a O3DS that had RXTools as well as a ton of other files. I feel like I screwed it up now and was wondering if I could just format the SD card and just start the whole CFW process from the beginning. If I can do that any links to an updates tutorial?

I cant seem to get back to browserhax, it gets stuck on one of the colors everytime I try to boot it up through browser, I did the time reset/browser clear thing too. NVM, I got in, I just hadnt tried enough times

Just wipe the RXtools files. Im sure its fine. Emunands transfer between cfw.

Thats fine. Just keep trying. Browserhax on 9.2 is unstableish.

Is there a plugin/way to load code in either its .code or code.bin forns on ntr

I replaced my '3ds' folder with the one in the Luma package. That folder had nothing compared to what I had. Now when I turn it on it goes to a purple page with the a 'Configuration file not found /boot.cfg
Creating default configuration...
Press any key to continue..'

Pressing any button does nothing at all. the boot.cfg is there. This is what is inside boot.cfg :

// Boot menu configuration
boot_config =
{
// Default timeout in seconds
// If timeout = -1 (disable autoboot)
timeout = 0;

// use 2 for new 3DS, 8 for 'old' 3DS
autobootfix = 8;

// if timeout = 0 (autoboot),
// hold this key after turning on the 3DS to enter the menu
// keycode list : https://goo.gl/4XLDIL
recovery = 2; // SELECT

// Default boot entry (starts counting at 0, not at 1)
default = 0;

// Boot menu entries (11 max)
entries =
(

{

title = "Luma3DS";

path = "/Luma3DS.dat";

offset = "0x12000";

},

{
title = "rxTools";
path = "/rxTools/sys/code.bin";

I have no clue. I dont use ntr for much more than backlighting control.
Ill look into it real quick, cause fbi doesnt want me messing with the homemenu right now.
