Homebrew Clarification Thread - What is going on?

[Tapri]

What do you mean. I'm pretty sure that it said there is downgrading there. I'm pretty sure I can read.

Yes, this application can allow downgrading, but it need KTM (kernaltimemechine) to take advantage of that service, which @JustPingo hasn't released yet or made stable enough to compile and test.

For the benefit of every laytemper:

THIS IS NOT THE DOWNGRADE

This is proof that @Steveice10 has properly implemented memchunkhax2 (to an extent) and has kernel access. All this test version does is puts a testing function pointer into kernel memory and uses it to set the hex value DEADCAFE, which is just a test value that is readable in the output that shows that code was executed. This exploit is not yet consistent. It is however 100% proof that arbitrary code can be executed. Once this is improved and made consistent, the downgrade will be implemented. So expect some more waiting!

Same result for me with the new build: stuck at "Map complete." on N3DS 10.3-28E.

 

[DiegitusXD]

Now I think I'm In the good way...I have:

Setting up...
Mapping pages for overwrite...
Overwrite complete.
Map complete.

This is good?

 

[GoodCookie88]

So, without wanting to bother, what is this noise about? Are you trying to establish a beachhead? Mapping a cul de sac? Can you explain me in plain, simple english( or deutsch, français, español, português)?

Entende portugues? Entao a gnt ta fazendo test do novo exploit

 

[Woni]

I got DEADCAFE
Press start to exit

but freeze...

 

[Woody8275]

Whether it works is based out of pure luck (currently). For some people it's always working, for some it's the opposite.

i think it works on all 3ds except old 3ds above 9.2

 

[Misledz]

Does anyone know why it says Test Value: 00000000 instead of DEADCAFE?
It seems like it at least completed but returned with the wrong value.

Means it was almost there, but wasn't really there yet.

Worked

Now I think I'm In the good way...I have:

Failed

100% sure that question will be answered upon release.

Most, if not all questions will be answered.. Be patient..

 

[nobody231]

Pretty sure you can't. Because if you did, you would know what everyone has been talking about in the last 20 pages

No thanks for the NEEDLESS HOSTILITY. I have not seen any part of the thread other than the very beginning, as I haven't been around the scene for a month. This was a surprise, and I don't want to read 183 pages of content.

Its nothing XD

 

[GoodCookie88]

still doesnt work fuck

Thank you for not being needlessly hostile! I simply wanted to know if it was that way for downgrades, because I think it's similar to previous downgrade things that have popped out. I'll wait until release then!

Not currently. It HAS TO work on > 9.2 3DSes (all models)

 

[TheGlow]

Theres too many random factors why some it works and some dont. All I can provide is when I was doing a modchip for my 360 it was so sensitive to the point of wire length. 38-39.5mm and it would work in under 10 seconds. Any more or less and it would take 10+ mins.
My daughters 2DS is already erratic. Browserhax took 5 tries before it took.

they are trying to test it and get a value aka Test value: DEADCAFE or whatever it was. o3ds doesnt work correctly.

 

[MasterLel]

Hum... no way, it doesn't work on my o3ds 10.2, no matter the entrypoint used, it stops at "map complete" then freeze.

 

[dsoldier]

finally
deadcafe, o3ds 9.9, menuhax, 2.5 *hax

 

[DiegitusXD]

Its nothing XD

Well,it's something

 

[ihaveahax]

alright, here you go. I will keep this blog post updated as much as I can.
