Homebrew [Release] FBI - Open source CIA installer

[ccfman2004]

the consoles with pre-installed titles are on SysNAND, it's basically the same thing

What about games like Super Smash Bros that are over 1GB? That game is like 1.4GB

not sure i didnt install that to SysNAND

This application is freaking amazing!
Been using the network functions to install CIA's and although it's still a little rough it gets the job done!
Only con for me is that the netcode could be improved a bit, and maybe add some retry support or something. Sadly I have a lot of WiFi interference going on over here and sometimes my connection completely drops

Another suggestion - Community driven title db to display strings which match the TitleID for convenience

Wow, look at the pattern in the graph while sending .cia's.

Sometimes when I send a file with SocketPunch, FBI freezes on "Reading info..." and I can't cancel it

Are you using the most current version for both?

 

[WhoAmI?]

Are you using the most current version for both?

Yes, I'm positive. The problem doesn't always happen, just sometimes. I also get an error that commonly occurs when transferring large files, though I can't remember what it actually stated - something to do with a file size error or whatever? Would be great if I could click cancel while on "Reading info..." as I have to eject my Cubic Ninja card, just to quit.

Can this be used to downgrade sysnand on new3ds??

 

[RustInPeace]

How does it work on Gateway emunand? I'm trying to install ftpony on sysnand. Is that possible?

i'm trying to install an CIA

i have FBI+ libkhax, but libhax fails at Step 3, any ideas?

 

[night_hawk]

You don't need libhax, just the latest version of FBI

 

[djmocella]

i only read up to page 10 so i guess i missed that part, any chance i can update the web browser while not on a CFW?

I think that sys tiles pulled from NUS are legit cias, so in theory yes. But i never did, so don't take my words ad truth

You may be able to but keep in mind that some titles require a certain firmware to run and may not run without a higher firmware installed. System Titles pulled from 3DSNUS and packed as a .cia should install no problem as long as they are a higher version than currently installed. To install and older version you first need to remove the newer version and then install the older version without exiting FBI or you may end up with a brick. You could end up with a brick by installing a newer browser anyway.

Cia's are just archives that the updates are packed into, by 3DNUS. They are legit as long as you don't change the version numbers, as it breaks the signatures.

I followed instruction on the first page. Create a blank title.db file and goto management to create the files.

I'm trying to install GW 3.2 mset on my N3DS using FBI.

Here is how:

You are over thinking this

Does it also freeze with prompts disabled?

I haven't tried. I usually leave prompts enabled. I'd try it now but my SD card is full. I was transferring Monster Hunter 4 at the time.

Ahh ok, I've just transferred 2gb+ of cia's and can't recreate the problem you are experiencing.

I see. I have no idea why this occurs then. Maybe a WiFi interference? I dunno.

i installed Mario land 3d to my nand i have N3DS spoofed firmware went to eshop and it told me i already owned it

only on emunand not sysnand

you can install legit cia games to nand "NSMB2" or whatever

you don't really understand cia installing.
'preinstalled' content is not on sysnand/emunand. well, it can be. the camera app is preinstalled, that is on the nand.
but no, preinstalled games etc are on the sd card.
you can install ANY content on sysnand. it DOES NOT MATTER if you are on sysnand or emunand.
the only thing matters is if the cia has a good signature, if it is legit. if yes, it will load without hacks.
you can load pirated games in pbt cfw, that's sysnand. but you cannot load it in rxtools emunand.
when you install a 'legit' preinstalled game, it does not install it to nand. it installs it just like any other non system no dsiware content - to the sd card. as always, you will get a ticket in your ticket.db
any eshop content you install, bought or not, if you have signature patches on, like a cfw/gw, eshop will tell you you have bought it.
