Hello people. Y'know that MathewE guy who we all had a big argument about when he teased a 9.X CFW? Well he teased it again about a month ago. Here is another pastebin to help beat the dead horse.

Teasing: http://pastebin.com/pvj5q2qp
Showing off some random chunk of code: http://pastebin.com/M8M01Qhx

Feel free to renew the pointless topic.

Some of the bits and pieces come from someone who knows what they're doing, without a doubt. All of their posts together, though, show that they're almost definitely not the ones behind whatever they're talking about.

I thought that too. If they were the ones behind this, then they wouldn't be so secretive or teasing us about something that they were given/helped.

Well, I found something peculiar. http://pastebin.com/wdSUNt1a

Someone feel like explaining what this is?
From a certain ISO site I visit quite frequently, I believe it may be the work of someone over there. The person over there said he started working on a 9.2 CFW, so it may be his handi-work.
This is jut a guess though.

By the way, where did you find this paste?

Pretty sure it's claiming to be the patches needed to disable the infamous sig checks (lolpiracy), along with all the necessary hints to actually use them. Looks plausible at least, haven't tested.

So it seems.. Well, this could just be a basic CFW. I'd use it I guess, but I don't think it has emunand support or anything other than sig checks and stuff. Also, I read that you can install a .Cia with FBI and play it on the patched sysnand like PBT-CFW. Seems a little obscure but hey, it works until another alternative is released! One good thing though is apparently it has a high boot rate, and that's a lot better than a few other CFWs out there. :P

I love the NX speculation in 3DSnice's pastebins...
So he says that NX is a new unified OS.
The hardwares that will launch NX OS are the Wii U, the New 3DS and the "Nintendo smartphone".

Let's evaluate that possibility from a security perspective.
The Wii U and the New 3DS are both hacked for now.
The only way for Nintendo to avoid the analysis of a new OS is to hide the keys in their strongholds.
Wii U stronghold : boot1 (encrypted with a key that is disabled immediatly after).
New 3DS stronghold : something encrypted with keys generated from one of the 32 NAND based and OTP encrypted keys.

Problem : for the New 3DS, we do know that these keys are compromised.
How? we don't know. But some 9.6 encrypted titles ARE decrypted (the new SKATER in example).
Do we really don't know how the OTP registers were compromised?
That's simple : with a bootrom hax (and NOT the one that Wulfy discovered). EDIT : Or a side-channel attack.
I was able to come to this conclusion only reading 3dbrew.

I just noticed this says it's for "classic" 3ds, ie old3ds. Boo. Wonder if it's still just a matter of finding the equivalent offsets for new3ds or if there's more to it. Would anyone with the knowledge be kind enough to answer that one?

I can't find the payload he's talking about. Otherwise I'd compile it myself (though I have no means of testing it). If someone could find the ARM9 payload source he's talking about, I'll make the changes and slap it all together if anyone with CN + 9.2 wants to test it and report back.

*edit*

I'd also like to suggest anyone testing it have a hardmod just in case something goes screwy. I don't want to be responsible if it somehow turns your 3DS into a paperweight, though the chances of that by editing two lines on an ARM9 payload are slim.

is what you're looking for i believe. :)

Well i compiled it fine after adding stuff before the "return 0;". No idea if i did it right or not. haha (can't code to save my life)...

Going to test it in a minute though and see if it does something or nothing at all....

Edit: Well it reboots to home menu as it should, but doesn't seem to do anything else (can't run devmenu etc) so i guess i did it wrong. :(

Need to go learn some C i think...

Old3ds XL, 9.2.0-20E

Was just about to edit my post again, but anyway... IT WORKS!
After changing the patch stuff again seeing as the first time did nothing. Loaded the new one from Brahma, it rebooted to home menu, i was able to load dev menu which i had already installed previously with gateway. :)

It does say in the pastebin to run it twice to get devmenu/etc. working. Did you have it written differently the second time you tried?
