EDIT: Yes, of course this was an April Fools joke, lol. The story I gave was bullshit obviously Only truth to it was that mid-kid and Aurora helped me create this (they pretty much did all the work, I just changed a bit of the text). So huge thanks to them for making this possible! As promised, I will release the source for it (I don't know why anyone would want it though). It's based on Aurora's SafeA9LHinstaller.

After a long while of testing and debugging, this was finally made possible. A bootrom dumper for the 3DS!
This project started a few weeks ago. I was over on #cakey and was asked by mid-kid if I can help him out on something. I agreed. He told me he was working on something that would change the world. He sent me an early build of the bootrom dumper and it bricked my 2DS. Fortunately I have a hardmod for it. We continued testing, but it simply wouldn't want to work. A few days later I asked Aurora for some help. She was kind enough to lend a hand. She was able to find the correct offsets of the bootrom and even integrate screen-init to the payload (due to some people using her fork of A9LH. So yes, you can use this on any fork of A9LH). Finally, a few days ago Aurora and mid-kid got the dumper to work. You should have seen their reactions, they were almost going insane. As for what the bootrom can be used for, I wasn't told. I was simply told I had the rights to share this.
We tried making this work with 9.2 sysNAND, but it simply wouldn't work. It would freeze the system and create a corrupted file. So we opted to keep it A9LH only, since there's flaw in that the bootrom reads from a special SD card used at the factory. We originally dumped it that way, but we found that it was inefficient and risky. After some trial and error a safer way to dump the bootrom was found. Unfortunately we still couldn't to get it to work with HBL as the bootrom would have already been locked at that point.
Also, due to the request of mid-kid and Aurora, I cannot share the source code for this at the moment. They still need some time to clean up and polish the code. They told me they will most likely release the source for it in a day or two.

Shout out to @mid-kid and @Aurora Wright for making this possible!
Shout out to @daxtsu and icecream for helping me test this!
Edit: Thanks to @astronautlevel for making the first ever bootrom exploit. It's similar to A9LH.

I've gotten an implementation of bootromloaderhax working with this!
Instructions:
1. Use @Supster131's tool to dump your bootloader
2. Copy the bootrom.bin to the /bootrom/ folder on your SD
3. Run this arm9loaderhax.bin
4. Profit!
