i followed the guide for the DSiWare transfer method. I injected the save. i opened it up on the source o3ds and got a white screen which means that the exploit worked. i did the system transfer and copied the files etc. Now when i try to open the DSiware game on the target 3ds (im using 4 swords) it gets stuck at a white screen but flashes green once and then hangs.

Redownload all the files and replace them. I don't see anything wrong with your SD card structure so it could be corrupted, but I am not certain.
Just tried that and it didn't work. I did notice plailect said this. (Sorry the image is in landscape mode, no idea why)

I checked the source code and it's an old method for downgrading to 2.1 and installing a9lh. Pretty sure that won't work

That was for downgrading the NFIRM, but it's still worth trying just to make sure that the DSiWare exploit is working properly. (Just don't use it to downgrade your NFIRM, obviously.)

You can also use that to backup and restore your NAND, so technically you could use it with the hardmod method of installation, just using dgTool to backup and restore instead of a hardmod. Only do that if you feel comfortable doing it, of course.

I don't know if I'm comfortable doing that but thanks so much for replying! I think I might wait for a fix (unless it's a user error) or I'll just wait for a HBL entrypoint on 11.4

    @K3Nv2, RIP Felix does great videos on the PS3 yellow-light-of-death.
  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
    for people with beefy hands.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that's a long shot

    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:
