Hacking Need *hax 2.X Pasta loader...

[ayanekochan]

First question: Why don't you try for yourself after backup 2.1 HAX (I mean keep the 2.1 folder. If you use themehax, back up the payload ropbin on the root of your SD)?

I notice Hax 2.5 (themehax), has a better boot rate and boot speed than Hax 2.1. You can also access Eshop on SYSNAND without having to install CFW & firmware spoof.

Can confirm that it works! Used my old pasta boot.3dx to auto load upon CN launch. Eshop errors out for me but I'm not too broken over that. Thanks!

Have some miniPasta

Thanks for this. I used it to update my N3DS sysNAND from 9.0 to 9.2 (no reason not to, only 2 or 3 CIAs, lol).

Does anyone still have the full version that works on *hax 2.x?

Thank you! That will be really useful!

Mini pasta works grrreat!

For auto-boot themehax you have to get your timing right, to be able to boot into Pasta CFW menu (to enable/disable firmlaunch):

Turn on 3DS-> autoboot into HBL -> PASTA CFW -> Now for autoboot, you need to wait for the bottom screen to start flashing different color screens (red, blue, yellow, green...), then press and hold down L.

So if one only needs disabled firm-launch Pasta CFW, use the mini PAsta instead.

For auto-boot themehax you have to get your timing right, to be able to boot into Pasta CFW menu (to enable/disable firmlaunch), especially with :

Turn on 3DS-> use whatever your trigger to launch HBL -> PASTA CFW -> Now for autoboot, you need to wait for the bottom screen to start flashing different color screen (red, blue, yellow, green...) then press and hold down L.

So if one only need disabled firm-launch Pasta CFW, use the mini PAsta instead.

He said what I was too lazy too

Every time I use Mini Pasta, my 3DS locks up at 'free 5: 00000000'
It worked once, and never worked again. Anyone know what the problem is and how I can fix it?
Using it to create an offline method of GW because I don't always have internet and I dont want to downgrade.

Old 3DS - 9.2.0-20E, *hax 2.5 (homemenuhax)

@zoogie at it, again. Nice work! This should have a proper Github release + a release thread, I think.

Just a quick note for everyone else - ReiNAND CFW SysNAND mode does basically everything the same as MiniPasta.

Yeah it's got a horrible boot rate; just keep trying

The two main reasons I made miniPasta are: I was tired of watching noobs brick their systems by updating with firmlaunch CFWs and needed something safer to recommend to them. The other is I wanted a no-BS quick CFW for my dev stuff on sysnand. I purposely keep the CFW low-key because I know it has niche appeal and don't see it as something most people would prefer over the more feature laden CFWs.

My next release will contain source.

Seems to be an issue with libkhax, which is annoying because it's supposed to be more stable than brahma.
I may look into fixing the bootrate once I get done with my current project.

On my New 3DS, I've never seen it fail to boot. It boots more often than Reinand's sysNAND mode, actually.

Haha I thought it was down to bootrate. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt. Ive been out of the 3DS scene for a few months so I was thinking I did something wrong haha

Ok, just so happens I have a EUR 9.2, 2DS so I tested your approximate conditions myself. : )
11101 10111 (80%) Which is actually better than menuhax itself, which boots around 70%.
I used menuhax latest build, standard blue theme. No wifi on.
Using the latest standard hbmenu. (not mashers version)

You might want to see if you have any better luck with this. It's basically miniPasta integrated into hbmenu. Press X to activate while in the menu.
You can also run it as a standard app by placing it in a folder and adding it to the 3ds directory.

@Ronhero - what exact setup are you using for miniPasta?

Oh, and here's the source too.
Feel free to put it up on Github (and improve it).

@zoogie menuhax 2.5 on default theme using 2.0 online install booting via crt.

20% boot rate at best

I get close to 90% on rxtools using this setup

@Plasma Shadow - you too.

I'm getting really high bootrates with it. It uses the latest libkhax that has DEBUG disabled by default and some other improvements.

 

[Ronhero]

Awwww shit sounds good I'll test as soon as I get in.

I usually only use pasta for gba / dsi games

 

[urherenow]

I'm surprised I didn't see BootCTR or ctrbootmanager mentioned here. They both boot directly from *hax 2.5 and can boot HBL, or pretty much any CFW/ARM9 payload (like Decrypt 9).

I'll try it when I get home, not near my 3DS atm.
