Hacking Luma3DS - Noob-proof 3DS Custom Firmware

[Aurora Wright]

The pre-compiled version you have linked won't work? I already have that and have it set in my path.

Undo this from the reboot files: https://github.com/mid-kid/CakesForeveryWan/commit/5988f10951d4d6e006836339195c5f6db444fa72
That's the Windows build Rei made, it would need to be recompiled from source. I compile this on Linux.

Any chance of getting arm9loaderhax in this? I know it was recently added to the official version of ReiNAND and it would be awesome if we could get it for the o3ds.

There are very few changes to ReiNAND to make it compatible with a9lh (pretty much just this), but it will likely have to be modified for O3DS' instructions and not simply ported.

If you have arm9loaderhax installed, have a hard mod, and are on O3DS (NOT N3DS), give this build a try. It's simply ReiNAND mod with the a9lh patch.

Make sure you have ReiNand already properly set up.

(If you don't know what you're doing or what I'm talking about, this isn't for you.)

based on the art style, it seems like a miyazaki movie. not sure which one though.

When Marnie was there.

No worky.

You properly set up (Au)ReiNand stuff before trying?

 

[OctopusRift]

You properly set up (Au)ReiNand stuff before trying?

yup
same as my other o3ds

I already had some people try this on IRC, there's more needed to get it working properly... the payloads seems to be running somewhat (also btw you need to remove the screen stuff, basically get draw.c/h out and take out the LoadSplash() function from the main.c as well as the include for draw.h out and you should be good) the payload will put a patched_firmware.bin in the rei directory, but won't actually do the firmlaunch

i am trying to setup this , N3DS XL US , 9.2
i put ReiNand.dat in the root of the SD card rei folder in the root of the SD card and inside of it there is firmware.bin for the N3DS
there is folder inside of it called emunand and inside of it there is a file called emunand.bin
in 3ds folder i put ReiNand.3dsx and ReiNand.smdh
i run them using cold booting and chose ReiNand , then nothing happen.

Just to make sure: You HAVE created an emuNAND partition on your SD card, yes? (or have had a different CFW set up before)
Also: obtain a splash.bin from the ReiNAND splash image thread, having a splash helps diagnose at which stage the loading borks, at least for me it helped a lot.

yes, i have GW emunand
also had the splash.bin
the splash image is not loading at all

What are you using for the coldboot?

 

[aos10]

ctrcoldboot

why are people in a rush to use arm9loaderhax? just use a Boot manager to boot into your fav CFW.



once arm9loaderhax is ready its ready.

Most people just want to have their otp on hand for when more stuff that uses a9lh comes to fruition.

otp?

ive been away like 3 days... whats OTP?


damn the 3ds scene is moving fast. lol.

It's what you dump after downgrading to 2.1, if you look in the tut section you'll find the OTP thread there. If you are thinking about downgrading just know there are risks of bricking in advance so it's best to have a hardmod until the guide is updated to be more safe tonight.

So I was using a old version of ctrbootmanager, it worked fine and boot rates were amazing, but then I changed it for the latest version so I could use images on it, and now I´m getting the worst boot rates of my life, can anyone share some info on this?. cfg settings would also help greatly. I don´t want to autoboot since I also use hombrew launcher and launch mini pasta through the manager.

Arm9LoaderHax is now fully supported with all the features. Works on both O3DS and N3DS. On an A9LH setup, you need an extra "firmware90.bin" file in the rei folder (now included in the FIRMs file on github).

Including sysNAND launch? If so, that's awesome! Thanks!
