Hacking Luma3DS - Noob-proof 3DS Custom Firmware

[Expliciate]

nice thanks for the help i hope i can do it? i have a question i have a backup of my sysnand its possible then to restore? when if bricked

You restore it at the end of the process.
For the most part, you're tampering with the emuNAND to downgrade it to bricked 2.1, backing it up, unbricking it, and then using that unbricked emuNAND backup to restore to sysNAND.
You won't be touching sysNAND until you restore the unbricked emuNAND backup to the sysNAND.

Each time a guide mentions Cakes, just replace it with AuReiNAND. Download the latest zip and place all those files on your SD.

Don't forget to place the firmware files in the /rei/ folder.

Using the new bottom screen feature implemented on 3.8.1

Got a top and bottom splash screen set from @Columbo2811 and they look blooming amazing

I just renamed Decrypt9WIP.bin to arm9payload.bin and put it inside the rei folder. However, it does not launch after pressing L+R at boot. It launches emunand instead. Any help please?

1. Are you on the latest version of AuReiNAND?
2. Are you using the screen init version of A9LH?

Did you update the "rei" folder? (is the "loader.bin" file in there?)
I should add an huge disclaimer to the first post: "ALWAYS UPDATE THE REI FOLDER"

2. Are you using the screen init version of A9LH?

Yes to both. Should I remove that loader.bin file that is inside rei folder?

You should also add:
"Please use your brain as this requires common sense!"

No, you need the loader.bin as that's the bootloader.

Try again, maybe you didn't probably press a button.

No, it has to be there. If you use A9LH, and "loader.bin" and "arm9payload.bin" are in "rei", it won't treat it as if you pressed L.

Just updated my mod to 3.8.1 : [REMOVED, FIX INCOMING]
Sorry for the delay guys, @Aurora Wright releases tons of good stuff really fast these days

Thanks. Some splash screens here if anyone is interested https://gbatemp.net/threads/reinand-3-0-custom-splash-screens-thread.410948/page-15#post-6155337

It works now... thanks a lot!

You forgot to edit the path in the "loader" XD. Please don't contribute to the "doesn't work!!111!" posts haha.
What's the reason for using both rei and aurei though? As I said, for the scenario where the two do the same thing (boot emuNAND on N3DS), before booting the FIRM it's the same in memory. And I mean "same" as in "binary identical". Except for the arm9 thread.

I feel dumb right now... x)
Thanks for poiting this out, fixing it and re-releasing it

To be honest, there's not really a "point", I just like to have them both for pretty much no reason ^^'

I think AuReiNAND is becoming more than just a mod.

I remember when you first released this, I considered it the same thing, with the only difference of this having o3DS support.

Now though? This is so much better and it's only improving. Can't wait what more features are to come

I agree with these comments..... just a personal thing (no offence to anyone else) but i hope region free is not introduced

I wouldn't mind it but it's definitely not a priority.

It's not that difficult to make CIAs region free.
