13 years.

The original DS was released in 2004, and to this day, no hax for Download Play had been made.

Until now.

Gericom found an exploit in DS Download Station, allowing us to run any homebrew we'd like over DS download play.

Source code for dspatch: https://github.com/Gericom/dspatch

Enjoy!

And if you want to load unsupported flashcarts on a DSi:

Yes.
Here's Apache Thunder's flashcard launchers edited for HaxxStation. @shutterbug2000 should put this in the first post.

i would not say that since some things have happen that were thought to be impossible it would take some other sort of exploit to switch modes though

He posted it yesterday in SRLoader's thread.

devs said before there was no way to load ROMs from the sd and they were wrong.

Fun fact, FIX94's work will work on vWii (no it's not done yet don't ask).

In case you don't understand the pictures: it's showing my 5 DSes (DS Phat, O3DS xL EUR, JPN DSi, EUR DSi, DS Lite) seeing the PoC Haxx image from FIX94's app that I'm running on my vWii.

Could some thing technically be made for the ds to so you don't need to use the ds download station rom

That was a software limitation though and people back then didn't think anyone would go through the trouble. However NTR mode is triggered by a write to a specific register that is only write once (which can only be reset by doing a soft reset) that can only occur once. This occurs at the hardware level. Hence it is physically impossible to switch back to TWL mode on a normal DSi/3DS. So when I say impossible, I mean impossible.

what's this useful then for really only uses i can see is sending a cheat menu to another ds say if you have a 3ds with twl loader but no flash cart and you want to use cheats on your dslite or sending a gba wifi dumper.

 

[ChampionLeake]

Where do I get that file?

 

[Valery0p]

Wait a minute... does the MSET exploit installer works from NTR mode?
Soooo...can we install MSET on 4.x/6.x 3ds wirelessly? (and, using nds-bootsrap properly, only with another modded 3ds,without a flascard?)
If yes, this exploit cloud be very useful back in gateway/rxtools times

You can run blocked flashcards on a DSi.

Answered in the TWLoader thread.

Not with nds-bootstrap, though.

has anyone confirmed to use twloader to use haxxstation succesfully? I'm using it and nothing is happening

Whoa! Thats pretty cool!

 

[Tarmfot]

Thanks a lot for this work, smart people.
I'll use this wii thing with my dsi a lot too.

Ok, I can't create an Acekard 2i launcher out of the box. @Apache Thunder @Gericom @shutterbug2000, could any of you give me a hand? https://we.tl/mEfgIfKp7c

You must rename the ACEKAK_00.nds to rom_to_boot.nds

 

[some1ne]

That's not the issue, "rom_to_boot.nds" is just used as an example of the order of the input arguments.

 

[Apache Thunder]

Does your rom have a bad overlay table? You might need to unpack the rom with something like DSLazy and zero out the y9/y7 bin files. That's assuming you are using a older rom of the AceKard2i from before they used spoofed NTR games. The spoofed retail roms would most likely break if you do this so only do this on one that isn't a hacked retail rom.

EDIT: Also, hacked NTR games that some flashcarts use most likely exploit flaws in files in the NitroFS section of the game. Since NitroFS is not supported by HaxxStation or DS Download play in general, any attempt to launch a flashcart with such a rom will most likely fail anyways.

You will need to instead try the kernel SRL are an older AceKard rom dump from before they switched to spoofing games.

Can I use twloader on my 3ds to use haxxstation for my dsi? And will it work?

 

[tozevleal]

yes!

 

[ChampionLeake]

yes!

It' not sending the title I wanted on my dsi at all. It's still looking for a software available.

 

[ChampionLeake]

looks like I might've found my issue. The game crashes once I wait 5 seconds and press a
