Hacking Luma3DS - Noob-proof 3DS Custom Firmware

[mikey420]

Hold select when booting.

Not trying to find the settings... The thing crashes when I enable the setting luma3ds will not run. I can't even access the setting menu anymore. I have to delete the config file to get the CFW to run again

Anything I do asks to update. Is this even a Luma3DS issue, should I make a new thread?

TuxSH posted the link to the nightlies on this page just download it and replace arm9loaderhax bin with the new one.

oh , safesysupdater !? that sounds easy enough , i shall try it later on thank u.

edit: any U.S version of 9.2 emuNAND is fine yes ? (from the iso site)

edit1: and ooh , i almost forgot , so if i use the sysupdater app and then install the 9.2 emuNAND downgrade cia files will that automatically downgrade emuNAND and not touch sysNAND yes?

so steps for me with updated sysNAND only would be these v

1.creating/restoring a backup of my emuNAND (my backup is a 10.x fw)
2.download the U.S emuNAND 9.2 update cia files put them in updates folder on sd card.
3.use sysupdater and install the cias off updates folder.

yes?

Yes just make sure the 9.2 files are the right ones for your system. When you run the downgrader from emunand it downgrades the emunand not the sysnand.

Forgive me if this is a silly question. I saw that luma3ds support region/language emulation for specific games. Does this mean I can play multiplayer on different region consoles? For example, I have a JP and a US console, can I play multiplayer on Mario Cart 7 or Kirby: Planet Robobot. Thanks in advance!

In order to do that you want to use config (can't link here, google "DevMenu pastebin"), scroll down to EULA option, press down on the dpad until it says "FF.FF" for the EULA you want to accept, then accept it.

So I am supposed to use this DevMenu on whatever cfw I like? Currently using rxtool and GW on my two consoles.

Use Config.CIA, it's in the DevMenu Pastebin.

Got it! Thank you so much. BTW, I love RE:0 too!

I just found out the method you suggest is for internet multiplayer, what I was asking is face-to-face multiplayer. Any ideas?

Hm, not sure. You may need to region transfer to get that to work, but this isn't really my area of expertise...

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but does luma3ds have loader.cxi support?

For star updater, update to the latest revision.

Hi I upgraded mine A9LH O3DS XL from ARN 4.1 to Luma3DS 5.4 using this upgrade guide here:

https://github.com/AuroraWright/Lum...ade#upgrading-from-arn-43-or-older-to-luma3ds

After upgrading, I did the initial setup, and check marked "Force A9LH detectection" and "SHow current NAND in System Settings".

All works as intended (1st emuNAND boots by default, sysNAND boots by holding L, 2nd emuNAND boots by holding B)

But none of the payloads works (just blank screen with backlight on), I have named them all in the newer format and I guess I no more have to hold L key with the payload key anymore.

Kindly let me know what went wrong, why none of the payloads work. I have start_d9.bin (Decrypt9), x_emund9.bin (EmuNAND9), y_uncart.bin (UnCart) in the luma/payloads folder.
