Introducing NINJHAX - A Nintendo 3DS Homebrew Exploit!

[chin261]

Thats not happening for me, though the ninjhax exploit wont stay installed, have to rescan the qr code every time
maybe someone can try the cia version

mine first few try need to scan qr code. now no need to rescan qrcode. werid though :/

So far I've liked what I seen. The homebrew works as expected considering it's all early development.

The minecraft game works well enough and the FPS game makes me want to see a Doom game on the 3DS (which I bet won't take long).
The FTP client works ok but I had issues keeping a connection.

That being said, I would love Quake3DS or something like that. QuakeDS was a little choppy when I played it on my DSLite, probably a lot more RAM and power behind the 3DS would give it the "OOMPH" that it needs.

I'm going to download all I need right now before my copy of Cubic Ninja arrives.

Hi, I don't know how to help you with the error, but would you mind telling me whether the Australian N3DSs ship with firmware 8.1 or 9.2?(or something in-between). I want to know because the exploit only works on 9.0 and later...
Edit: To clarify, it works on 9.0 or later on the New 3DSs

My New 3DS came with 9.0, but thinking it still doesn't work; I updated to 9.2 but that didn't work either.

Formatted the microSD card hoping that did something, nope.

As luck would have it, my copy of Cubic Ninja arrived today.
I'm currently typing this while listening to Cube3D's chiptune music on my 9.2.0-20U 2DS.

What exactly doesn't work? Is it booting from the QR code and then crashing? Also, thanks for responding with the stock firmware, I now know I can wait a while to buy the New 3DS and it won't be unexploitable .

Really awesome to see where this goes and what I can do with it. Thanks guys ♥

Loading HBC works fine, so the QR code and stuff works, it boots fine to homebrew launcher. Just when you open any of the homebrew apps (I downloaded the starter pack), it gives me that error and restarts the new 3DS.

IDK if you've tried this already but... Try deleting the save file of Cubic Ninja(Press L+R+X+Y for 5 seconds on the title screen and follow the prompts)
Then you could try re-downloading the Homebrew Launcher(and the homebrew) and redoing the QR code hack.
As I said I know nothing about this sttuff, but maybe redoing everything on 9.2 will work?

Heh, yeah I deleted the save after updating to 9.2 also, but it seems I'm not the only one having the issue too, in the other thread: http://gbatemp.net/threads/ninjhax-is-live.374499/page-5#post-5170304

Homebrew launcher installs fine but if i try to launch any of the homebrew apps I get "An error has occurred, forcing the software to close. The system will now restart"
This is on Australian New Nintendo 3DS XL.

Anyone else with a "New" console have this issue?

Made an account just say I'm getting this too on same new 3ds xl 9.2.0.20 e any word from smealum?

Unless we're doing something wrong altogether.

 

[thenotoriousrod]

Us brew-less folk gotta stick together!!

I'm getting, 'An error has occurred, forcing the software to close. The system will now restart.' when I select QR Code ???

Are you all on 3DS XLs as a pose to the smaller N3DSs? Don't know if that would affect it.

 

[Rokkubro]

OH! Did you see this? https://gbatemp.net/threads/ninjhax-is-live.374499/page-6#post-5170406
I remember that all new consoles come with the slider all the way up, maybe flicking it off would work?

 

[OldClassicGamer]

Any approximate date when will region free hack be avalible?

You're possibly using the wrong one. I got it wrong a few times before I realised I was using the 'NEW' option instead of "OLD".

 

[W4T4R1]

Nope. Smea hasn't worked on it yet, so there isn't any date at the moment

 

[Purple_Shyguy]

Anyone know how to convert the .3DSX files to work on Gateway?

I wanna try the minecraft clone.

 

[The Real Jdbye]

So blargSNES has sound now?

Just got this email from Play-Asia regarding my CN order:

Dear lameboyadvance,

It's great to hear about your interest in the 3DS title Cubic Ninja.
However, we were able to confirmed that this particular title is
completely out of stock – not just with us, but with multiple retailers and
suppliers – the sudden demand due to a recent discovery about the homebrew
capabilities of Cubic Ninja has made this title impossible to find,
especially when the last printed copy was pressed in 2011.
We regret to inform you that we will be cancelling all orders and refunding
if applicable. We apologized for this inconvenience may have caused.
If you'd like to know more, here is the source: http://par.bz/5g9

Regardless of the reason, we are still using our full power in searching
for stock, but as the current situation stands, we can honestly say that
this is almost impossible. We want to make sure that we are always
fulfilling our customer's demand and we will have you updated as soon as we
do chance on more quantities, our CS team will notify you immediately.

Once again, we apologize for any inconvenience caused and we look forward
to your continued support.

Warmest Regards,

Your Team At Play-Asia.com
Customer Support Team

Guess this means that most (if not all) playasia orders will be cancelled soon.
