Hacking New 3DS hacking developments!

[s3r1alpari4h]

Since smea, plutoo, and derriks talk "breaking the 3DS" there's been exciting new developments in the 3ds hacking scene! And just wanted to inform you all

• SNSHAX (soon to be released) will allow you to downgrade a n3ds on 10.1 and below! https://gbatemp.net/threads/info-snshax-what-it-is-and-how-it-works.407052/
• Memchunkhax2 (also soon to be released) will allow you to downgrade o3ds/n3ds on <= 10.3
• Gateway update 3.6.1 was released and will soon be supporting fw all the way up to 10.3! http://www.gateway-3ds.com/2912-gateway-ultra-3-6-1-public-beta-gw-3dsx-and-10-3-wip/
• Browserhax now supports 10.3 on o3ds and n3ds! http://yls8.mtheall.com/3dsbrowserhax.php
• eShop old version downloader will allow you to install old versions of ironfall to get a permanent homebrew entry point! https://twitter.com/smealum/status/681269752443080705

And more! (Sorry if some of the links aren't allowed, tell me and I'll remove them)

There are multiple threads about all of this already. Thanks, though.

Yeah >.<

 

[Uring]

Thank you for putting the news together

 

[memomo]

This is what I was looking for, thanks

Everyone already knows that. Non need for multiple threads, and it is not N3DS only.
And a downgrade method (which also gives Kernel11) will allow all N3DS/3DS/2DS from 10.3 to 9.3 to downgrade to 9.2.

Are you talking about SNSHAX? I thought snshax uses the n3ds safemode ns. The normal safemod e NS and normal NS cannot run at the same time.

The vulnerabilities aren't N3DS only. Memchunkhax2 will allow to downgrade any (N)3DS on 10.3 to 9.2.

Yes but SNSHax is N3DS only.

 

[wahts]

so its worth for peopel to buy gateaway with a firmware on 9.4?

Yes, gateway will soon support all the way up to 10.3

Yup.

So SNSHax and Memchunkhax2 are going to do the same thing? Allow a 9.3 to 10.3 (n)3DS downgrade to 9.2?

So that means they will be fully-exploitable? Like the SNES emulators can access the whole CPU like the way a 9.0 n3DS can? Or is that not the case because it needs arm9 access and this only gives arm11? Forgive me, I am kind of new to this new stuff.

Yes.

Snshax only up to 10.1.

Yes.

Or is that not the case because it needs arm9 access and this only gives arm11?

Using ARM11 you can downgrade, there you have ARM9.

 

[Marco_Buns]

Wait?! So does Browserhax work for 10.3 now?!?!

 

[SomeGamer]

Yes.

 

[Octoling]

I am glad memchunkhax2 is a thing. Does anyone know when it will be released?

Read more, comment less. You lost posting privileges on this topic when you said in another thread that "9.6+ sysNAND support doesn't mean 9.6+ emuNAND support". Derp.

Downgrading doesn't give ARM11 access, it requires it. Downgrading will give ARM9 access, and therefore full system access.

While the two major features ARM11 allows are downgrading and installing universal ("legit") .cia installation, it's worth noting that NTR-CFW 2 was achieved with only ARM11 access.

so its worth for peopel to buy gateaway with a firmware on 9.4?

Yes, gateway will soon support all the way up to 10.3

It's worth pointing out that it was more than two months between when Gateway first announced 9.2 support and when it was eventually released.

When it's finished. There are a number of devs actively working on this and making steady progress. Realistically it is likely weeks away still.

The method used for downgrading gives Kernel11. I wrote that the wrong way, sorry.
What I meant by "9.6+ sysNAND support doesn't mean 9.6+ emuNAND support" is that people on 9.5 and lower won't access 9.6+ emuNAND on N3DS without having to download something to run it (keys, a FIRM dump, etc)
