Hacking Luma3DS - Noob-proof 3DS Custom Firmware

[JacksonS]

You can, and Aurora told me how to yesterday not as easy as you think.

I didn't think it would be easy. I opened arm9loaderhax.bin to take a look and nope, no idea.

No, not there in AuReiNAND's source code.

does the 9.0 firmlaunching the op states for a9lh apply to both sysnand and emunand?

Has anyone safely updated to 10.5 on sysNAND yet?

I'm just about to.

Someone did it i forget the username

Edit found the post:

Updated sysnand, Ayy now I can say that I'm on the A9lH 10.5 sysnand master race to those menuhax peasants.

I'm just about to. I'll edit the post with results.

I'm just wondering if modifying the payload can still make it work.

@Aurora Wright would doing what you taught me yesterday (adding multinand support, etc) break the sysNAND updater thing you have in place? Also, would the 9.0 FIRM on 10.5 still allow decrypt9 to work?

 

[JacksonS]

SysNAND update to 10.5.0-30U (with updatedsysnand flag enabled) was successful.

Can I restore my 10.5 EmuNAND to my SysNAND after I'm done installing A9LH?

How would you create the dummy file

Can you outline steps you took.

You cannot use the restore function in Decrypt9 because that will overwrite the FIRM0/FIRM1 partitions you just modified with ARM9LoaderHax. I don't know exactly how you're supposed to do it; I'm just backing up my saves and re-installing everything on my sysNAND like a new system.

Can you outline steps you took.

Get the latest version of AuReiNAND. In the "rei" folder on your SD card, create a file (just a blank file with no extension) called "updatedsysnand". Edit the file and type some text into it. It can be anything as long as it's not blank. Then, when you turn your 3DS on, it should boot into sysNAND. From there you can update normally through System Settings because the sysNAND is patched so that FIRM0 and FIRM1 won't be overwritten.

that's what I'm trying, downgrading my emunand by dumping and injecting 9.2 partitions into it with decrypt9 but emunand doesn't work afterwards.

Ok, i figured it out (i think)

I have to compile arm9loaderhax.3dsx myself since the OTP is console specific, i need to recompile it again for every other system using the specific OTP from that system.
So i managed to get everything and have it compiled arm9loaderhax.3dsx
Did i had to change anything in the source to get it working with AuReiNand?
Did anybody make an arm9loaderhax.smdh that i can get?

Next:
Copy whole data_output folder to \3ds on SD and rename it arm9loaderhax
Boot into HBL and start arm9loaderhax to get it installed.

Has anyone transferred their games from emunand to sysnand yet

well a9lh is new so I'm not sure it's possible since I'm sure everyone's emunand is on 10.5 right now.

Aurora said a couple posts ago to extract partitions and inject them into sysnand to keep your emunand games

 

[Audioboxer]

@Aurora Wright is there anything else stored in firm0/firm1? Bit of a noob to what they are. Sysnand doesn't end up some frankenbuild where the Eshop or something doesn't work? lol. Cheers

pretty sure you have to have emunand 9.0. if it works for you and you don't brick then I may try that instead of injection partitions from sysnand to emunand to downgrade emunand.

I was waiting for someone with a hardmod to come and try it out
