Homebrew CHMM - Custom HomeMenu Manager

[wolverine067]

I updated my Emunand to 9.0 and everything works fine now.

 

[Aeturnus]

Any Tinkerbell themes out there? Sister has requested one and i'm graphically challenged.

 

[Sony98]

I tryed the Updated version 1.4
If i go down to choose more than 17 Themes on my old 3ds (Emunand 9.7) the 3ds freezes and i cant see more themes.

 

[gpodgl]

and new 3ds? it is work?

 

[dude1709]

Yes, runs perfect.

Spoiler: I get this error :/

Edit: Nevermind, I fixed it.

 

[purpasmart96]

Themes are completely broken for me ever since switching to 1.4

Okay, well, for those of us not in the know, HOW did you fix it?

The theme extdata had to be loaded; this can be fixed if you click the theme icon on your home screen.

Everytime I run this, I get error 65 cannot access extdata archive.

I've set themes on both sysnand and emunand, so that's not it. I've formatted both emunand and sysnand, s that's not it.

I'm on Jap 8.1 New 3ds Emunand 8.1 n3ds as well.

Please any suggestions. As I said I have already set a theme manually from one of the default themes, so that's not fixing my issue.

Thanks all.

This has probably been answered before, but is there any way to rotate CHMM themes so that every time we close the system a new theme shows up? Like what you can do with regular themes on 9.x devices.

Edit: So I think I incorrectly installed a custom theme and it crashed and gave me a black screen. Now every time I try to enter emuNAND I get that black screen :/ . I think my only option is to format it and then install a backup of an earlier emuNAND. What a bother...

1. The random option is not possible atm, but you could make a custom theme cia and then use it like a normal one.
2. If you have a backup of your SD before the crash, you should have a folder called 000002ce(last letter may be different depending on your region. e=eur; I believe d=us and c=jap?) in the your extdata folder. Simply replace the current folder with that backup.

Thanks for that, that'll certainly help me if I get that problem in the future, but I actually resorted to starting completely from scratch... Luckily I had all my saves backed up but it took about a day to get everything set up how I like.

Yup yup,

I have a little error (well, to be correct, its just and error :d ), when I want to apply theme, I got that

Error: [string "?"]:81: error writing
file

I've tried with two different theme. I have a GW so they are placed where they have to be placed.

I have tested under me emuNAND in 9.7.0-25, in my old3DS. With the latest version of CHMM.

Edit: Ok, I've found how to correct this error. Its ... stupid me imo
I had not initialized the theme manager from Nintendo, open at least one time the HOME parameter then "change theme", it will do some magic the very first time, and after that, CHMM works like a charm.

I dont delete my post, in case someone search for the same error.

Starting with 9.3.0-X Home Menu can use more files in this extdata, for theme shuffling. "theme:/ThemeManage_%02d.bin" "theme:/BgmCache_%02d.bin" "theme:/BodyCache_%02d.bin" "theme:/BodyCache_rd.bin"

It is documented how to set up themes for shuffling. For this homebrew to support that would be nice.

Also, 1.4 is pretty unusable. It just stays at the screen that tells me to press the power button to start, even if I spam that button.
Using it on 9.8 emuNAND as a cia.

I've had trouble with it too, are you giving it a hard press? or maybe try a long press?

Try pressing it at a 30 degree angle.

Yeah since the recent update (n3ds emunand 9.5) when I go to install a theme it just freezes at installing theme then does nothing. Then when I boot into emunand it just sits at a black screen. The only way for me to fix this is to delete the home menu data (000002cc) off of my microSD card then I have to redo my whole home menu set up. The only way to

Maybe someone already told you, but you forgot including the .SMDH file in the v1.4 archive, meaning no icon, no info in Ninjhax / HB launcher.
