Hacking The status of Gateway and A9LH

[astronautlevel]

So why would I ever use GW A9LH if regular A9LH is way better?

If you have a GW card the best option is probably @liomajor's payloads because you can have both CFW and gateway with a9lh.

Otherwise just go for standard a9lh an don't touch gateway's shit with a ten foot pole.

1. .3ds/3dz
2. Adding another memorycard
3. Gateshark

A launching Launcher.dat

A = Launcher.DAT
B = \a9lh\arm9loaderhax.bin
Default = \arm9loaderhax.bin

1. Can't I just run regular A9LH (With the DS profile exploit reinstalled) and use the Gateway card?
2. I guess so.
3. NTR cheats tho

No, my guess is that its partly detecting memorycard as for what i dated back > starting without doesn't turn off your console > we can live with it.

Wait, so, it was shutting off because it was getting a read failure, because the card reader wasn't fully initialized yet or something?

Why would you go back to MSET? Before this, I was running run MenuHax on a 9.2 EmuNAND (Just set it to L, and you can just hold L to boot it with your EmuNAND). It worked alright, but this is even better.

I thought you needed MSET to launch flash cards on newer firmware?

It's not like there's an MSET ROP chain for 11.0. There's a 9.2 in the mix somewhere regardless of whatever old method you use. Not that it's a bad idea to keep a copy of 9.2 around. You never know what Nintendo will break next.

If you mean DS flash carts, that was the DS Cart Whitelist (and TWL_FIRM in the case of older cards like the Acekard 2i). Both Luma and Cakes (Cakes nightlies anyway) will patch TWL_Firm for you, making modified or older version of TWL_FIRM and DS Cart Whitelist unnecessary. Of course, you may still need a launcher if you've got a card that pre-dates the 3DS.

Flash Cards...

DS whitelist, mset is only for GW or cfw providing their own exploit for home menu 4.0 -4.5.

I don't think you can launch Gateway in higher than 9.2 firmware? You'd have to use a 9.2 emuNAND.

Thanks! TFW I just added this payload_Stage1 without taking the back off of my N3DS again, since I left your safea9lh in a9lh\arm9loaderhax.bin

I did a I_I cut on my new3ds

No need to remove the plate anymore (i've spare parts).

Thank you sooo much, @liomajor!

Great you could solve the Toshiba/Samsung mystery.

If that was just START instead of A, it would be perfect, IMHO. I know, everyone's a critic, but I find persistence override useful, even if most will never miss it. I know you can't make infinite customized layouts. But I think these two will work for most (maybe a start & A one for those who would actually miss multi-NAND, lol).

The new CFW there just do not understand why until now was not released.

Does it support A9LH with updated sysnand?

[Kazuma77]

Thanks a million times over. Wow, that was fast. Still haven't decided which one I want GW on, but I can switch 2_2 and 2_3 easily. I think this or the A & B one should be able to fit anyone's needs if they just move the payloads around.

@liomajor a question: If I install A9LH and formated my synand my 3ds he will stop working ?

 

[crimpshrine]

This is great now, all my units now boot directly into GW mode in 12 seconds and boot into Luma in 8 seconds while holding A on power on. I can also still get into Luma settings still while holding select down with A on power on.

Again thanks for your efforts liomajor and anyone else that participated, you all have helped out allot of people I am sure.

To everyone asking. Yes, you can run 11.0 sysNAND with Gateway and A9LH. You just can't update it, otherwise you'll brick.
