Hacking Pasta CFW - A CFW that allows unsigned CIA to be installed on Old and New 3DS! (required ninjhax)

[froggestspirit]

Gee, sure is a shame that none of this is possible without actually doing your own work, right?

AGB_FIRM patch?

Try to downgrade, install devmenu/bbm with the pbt-cfw, update your sysnand to 9.2 again with sysupdater and the pbt-cfw then retry.

Managed to get it through to the sysnand update. We'll see if it works this time...

I'd rather have CitrAGB working than having those odd methods to launch GBA games with modified CIAs but maybe someone could create a homebrew that'd use a patched AGB_FIRM and let the user load any rom from a list just like an emu?

But wtf is sdf?

NTR loaded through Pasta booted SDF on my N3DS.

sure but that is not what the guy wanted, he misunderstood how stuff works

I thought that NTR couldn't boot SDF.

SDF, it's either the short lovely name of SaveDataFiler, or a homeless person in France...

But you can only use one on your 3DS

Gateways butt?

Nah, they're good for now. I'm referring to some devs

So many angry devs in this thread, it's hilarious.

On the upside, it's nice to have somebody listening to the community rather than shoving their beliefs down everyone's throats. The amount of effort means nothing when you don't care to listen to what people actually want and feel like it's your job to tell the community what is wrong and what is right ;P

With that being said this is a cool development, I hope it provides a bit of a push to the community, being able to finally back up all my games and install some homebrew will be very handy. Great work guys!

It can if you launch Pasta prior.

Thank didn't know the acronym by the way what is the latest revision number of sdf?

 

[Naked_Snake]

im converting a 3ds to cia for the CFW and it completed but it also said the CIA will not be encrypted, is that a bad thing?

Now, I know

As this is for many people the first time using "illegit" CIAs, are there some precautions we should follow?

For example:

• What happens if we access data management (with PastaCFW loaded / without)? I've read somewhere else that this will delete all your illegit CIAs along with their saves (on GW) .
• What will happen if we connect to the Nintendo Network?
• Is there anything (else) we absolutely must not do in PastaCFW?
• Is there anything we absolutely must not do in SYSNAND (without PastaCFW loaded) when illegit CIAs are installed?
• Aside from a cold reboot, are there any other ways PastaCFW could get unloaded? Maybe, if we exit system settings?

If these questions turn up something critical, that might also be a candidate for additional text oo the first post.

yes....finally get to live my childhood nostalgia of F-Zero, Metroid Fusion, Warioland 4 and Warioware Inc...is there SNES VC too that would work with this?

a truly promising developer (along with NTR and others) but isn't afraid of crossing *that* line...great work ; 3
