Hacking Luma3DS - Noob-proof 3DS Custom Firmware

[marbles73]

Trying to install this for the first time, is it true that if you update to 11.4 DS or GBA games don't work? And that you can't open games that go in the special mode like Pokemon S&M? I'm using an "Old" 3DS.

use recent Luma nightly update via Luma Updater, unless if you installed A9LH on your 3DS unit then you're good to go.

DSTwo? It should if you use the latest nightly.

if i use the luma updater, will my lumaCFW update to 6.6 or to the latest nightly?

It gives you both choices. Hourly and nightly are the same btw. Saying that because it's "hourly" in the updater.

So after hbl is fixed, i update luma to latest nightly, then system update, and everything is fine?

and still looking for the freeshop answer. how to block updates?

What about freeShop? You block updates by blocking all Nintendo servers. You won't have access to fre/eShop and such.

A friend sent me his 2DS (11.3) to hack, any advice before I start the guide?

 

[shanefromoz]

What do people use HBL for anyways

 

[Don Ravioli]

Asking here since the above post worries me : I am on 11.2, and used menuhax that boot into HBL, where I go into Luma. If I want to update my EmuNAND to 11.4, does it break stuff, or not ?

 

[skydancer93]

So after I update Luma to the latest hourly build, the reboot, GBA, and DS stuff should work again correct?

Yes.

 

[rafaeloz]

Yes.

I can update luma direct on the 3ds? or I have to download again?

Both lol. Use luma updater and it'll update straight from the ds as long as you're connected to the Internet.
