Hacking Gateway will fix any bricked 3DS for free, as long as you're not lying!

[Kayday]

Are you claiming that nobody can run Gateway's code through a dissasembler and try to analyze what it is intended to do?

Then show me the exact code so everybody can shut up, including myself. The only post I saw is from nemoid saying "well it looks something like this."

sorry don't take notice of previous post

Not even that. Using the DS MSET exploit it's perfectly feasible to achieve everything Gateway does, will do and might do without any hardware involvement whatsoever (except for the initial development of the hack, of course). But piracy companies can't really profit off a CFW that will just get pirated (heh).

Unless it is something like the DS2, which actually has a unique ability because they actually did some real work and built in CPUs and a homebrew emulator to use them as well as enabled other homebrewers to program for it.

But yeah, the irony of pirate card companies taking on other pirate card companies who pirate their software. . . .

Can you read assembly language for ARM9 architecture?

Pirate or Not. They got A SHIP with GOLD to protect! D

Stupid Question. But I was looking @ History of Emulation Scene in Video Games.. I read 2-4 articles last night about it, its was so interesting. I wonder if there is more Articles or Webpages or Videos talking about the history of how emulators started (in video game scene)

Edit: one of the first I heard was iNES - an nintendo 8-bit emulator - but the compatible with nes roms wasn't as good on that time. Its so weird - like - We just... embraced the concept of Emulators and Roms and I think NOONE on Youtube has ever discussed how it works ... we just - hmm TV.. Dishwasher.. Vacum Cleaner.. push button works.. fair enough . ?

spinner09 . Think this way .


Someone buys a Microsoft XBox360. Puts a sticker over the 'xbox' logo that says 'Freds console' . Then distribute Fred Console to Online Shopping Market selling it for a lower price nexto the original Microsoft Xbox . This is what happening with 'Clone flashcarts of Gateway' . They've stolen all hardware/software from Gateway and put in other .jpgs pictures with name as r4is and 3dslink .

Except this isn't exactly the case.

The other companies are manufacturing their own hardware, not buying Gateway cards off the shelf and rebranding them. Even then, if they did that they wouldn't be able to cut the costs and still profit.

It's only the software that is being copied - And any person using a 3DS flashcard - Yes, even a Gateway - would be hypocrites to say that Gateway deserves to protect their own software becuase of what we are using it for - To pirate video games, someone elses software.

Rather he can or not, there is those that can.

this is not surprising that a team is making clone users suffer, anyone remember the true blue 2 PS3 dongle. they were wiping the users HDD's that was using cloned software on their devices. a lot of people had their PS3's wiped because of that, i wonder if the same person(s) is involved with the gateway card, it makes me wonder.......................sudeki300

 

[somewhereovertherainbow]

So its like . Someone buys a Microsoft Xbox360. Puts a stick over the 'xbox' logo that says Freds Console. Then Someone come and put another sticker over 'Freds Console' with the name 'Robs Console' Now for some reason rob and Fred is fighting to sell their products.. while Microsoft just looks with wide-eyes at this incredible situation ?

they're undercovered Nintendo and Sony agents ! It all makes sense!

Well, the binaries are available from Gateway's website I would presume.

Googles Lynda - how to learn ARM9 architecture language .. ?

Wait, what? Oh crap I worded my sentence weirdly again. I meant that was wrong for people to think you need a 3DS mode Cart to hack it XD Sorry Arras.

These carts are so anti-consumer, especially price wise. You kinda needed DS flashcarts in most cases for ease of use, but not for the 3DS if people were willing to work on it. I mean, we already have python tools to compile limited C code for the 3DS. Its like everyone is so focused on Flashcarts (especially due to some people thinking that we NEED them because of the DS (not everone, but I hear this way to much in other places)) that they cant see that you dont need to spend $80 on a cart that now seems to brick people on occasion. People like Apollooo are getting burned due to all this, and its just wrong.

Nintendo Wii agents? Maybe. Sony PS 3 agents? Heck No! at that time, Sony is still selling PS3 at a lost. Breaking a PS3 means either the user is not paying Sony any more, or buy another PS3 which makes Sony losing more money (unless the user totally stop play pirate, which still require that owner buy a few new games before Sony can just recoup the lost from selling him a PS3). Nintendo Wii, on the other hand, it's making profit on the console itself on day 1, as long as it doesn't make that user abandon Nintendo in the future, breaking as many Wii as possible by Nintendo makes economic sense.

No into the the next Gen, things are the opposite, Xbox One and PS4 are making slim money by selling console, and WiiU/3DS are selling at a lost (at the time of the first price cut for 3DS, maybe they are making money now, and I think WiiU is still selling at lost right now)

 

[Arras]

I agree. We really need a freely available, preferably open source 3DS CFW/mod to come out that enables region free, version spoofing, emunand, screenshots etc - I think Smealum already has some of these things, but he won't release it because AFAIK he thinks it's not ready yet or because it's too easy to use for piracy, not sure which. That way if you want to be a pirate you can deal with all this flashcart nonsense and if you just want to get rid of the limitations of the system there's an easy and free solution out there. (that said of course someone will create a rom loader eventually.)

I think as of now, Gateway or any other companies are partially hacked the DS mode and only fools the 3DS Firmware (before Emunand), now a little step forward by fooling the hardware. No one has successfully hacking the the 3DS hardware yet, there's a big difference between hacking and fooling.

I think most people know homebrew will be used for piracy, so they do not want to release exploits publicly until there are enough "legitimate" uses to justify it. Who wants to give all their hard work away to the pirate card companies without anything of real value to show for it?

That it will, but piracy will never be completely curtailed. But legit uses, like region free gaming; region locking is the bane of gaming itself and never should have existed.

No doubt, because piracy is the number one use for any exploits, especially when companies can profit from it by operating out of East Asia and other locations where there are no real legal recourses. I just meant that hackers would be giving a gift to the pirate card companies by releasing their exploits and nobody has any real homebrew to use it.

I think they will wait to see if a real homebrew scene develops before releasing exploits, especially if it is something that works on the latest firmware.
