Luma3DS Updater downloads too slowly,I'd rather use my computer(where I can also get the latest commit,not just latest release)

Nope it always shows error to me,I'd rather download it on the computer myself

If you're having problems with Hamcha's updater, try mine: https://github.com/astronautlevel2/Luma3ds-updater

It supports both hourlies and stable releases and supports path changing, read the README for all the details.

I'm not an expert, but isn't it a requirement to install the GBA games to sysNAND as well?
I didn't get any of the Ambassador titles to start before I installed them to sysNAND. And I remember reading multiple places that this was required. If you start a GBA game in emuNAND and quit the game, it kicks you into sysNAND.
May I ask why you don't want to install them to sysNAND?

I'm kinda new to cfw, been using my sky3ds without any problems so far. Cause of ap checks I'm trying to use luma now.
Downgraded to 9.2 and installed luma, I open it through cubic ninja, then I'm in the homebew launcher and select luma.
It goes back to the normal menu with all my icons. Is that the correct way?

Do I have to go through cubic everytime?

You can install Menuhax so you can automatically boot into Luma.

In his defense the wifi on the 3ds is pretty trash.


Given that i can get 3MB/S transfer speeds to 3DS with its wifi his network must be trash.

Run App
Takes a couple of seconds to make a .bak file
Instantly updates like split second speeds

Luma3ds patch agb_firm auto?
i install gba vc on sysnand and play on sysnand? im unlink!

thanks!

To play GBA/DSi in sysnand, you need to install the game in sysnand.
To play GBA/DSi in emunand, you need to install the game on both sysnand AND emunand.

  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
