In one of the embedded images, there are two 3DS consoles connected to a machine. One was closed and mounted onto some kind of frame while another was opened and connected to a control panel of some sort. Could one 3DS be used as the control interface for testing another 3DS console?

(The image was labelled as "gyro test" or something similar)

A little feedback of working with what CFW.

NEW 3DS XL with A9LH Delebile release.

Working for me with:
Luma3DS 5.5 (non dev version)
Luma3DS 5.5 (dev version)
CakesFW (175 SE) (SE=Special Edition from that iso site with all files you ever need!)
SaltFW 2.0b LTS

All of them are going into the "Start Menu" when holding the start button BEFORE you start the app.
All of them are starting the test if the app is startet.

(Always started from Home Menu!)

Ok, so I think my O3DS will not be of any use. I bought it almost at launch but I updated it till 4.1, after that I installed Menuhax and after that A9LH.

I am getting the fat16 xorpad now with the 4.1 NAND backup I have just to try it out.
Ok, so I got a 000400000F980000.ncch file. I run NCCH Decryptor and it said Exheader / Exefs / Romfs: OK / FAIL/ OK so I guess it doesn't have it.
I tried to do it one more time to see if I got the same result and a message saying "NCCH is not encrypted Success!! 1x processed 0x failed NCCH/NCSD Decryptor succeeded". I don't know what that means so if it is useful for anyone tell me.

EDIT: This is the log:
Processing NCCH "000400000f980000.ncch"
Code / Crypto: CTR-P-3S00 (JPN) / Standard
Decrypt ExHdr/ExeFS/RomFS (2kB/1894kB/11MB)
Verify ExHdr/ExeFS/RomFS: OK/Fail/OK
Failed!
NCCH/NCSD Decryptor: failed!

Press B to return, START to reboot.

Opening /D9Game ...

Success!

NCCH/NCSD Decryptor: succeeded!

Press B to return, START to reboot.

I do have the N3DS nand backup I did at stock before I installed anything to it. It was on 9.8 FW if I recall correctly. I Could check it as well but don't know if it will serve any purpose now that the N3DS version is out there.

Corrupted exefs, you can send me it if you want, maybe we get more data from it. But at this point, I think it would need factory firmware, since all the dependences point to factory titles (00040001) instead of retail (00040130)

If you want it I can send it. What do you want, the .ncch file only?

After getting it to work finally, I tested the speakers (Evaluation Menu > Speakers > Debug 3 (Speaker Test)) and noticed the sound on the console and go to 2.0 which is really loud and made me think the following. Is it possible to raise the volume of the speakers through CFW (I'm not sure it is possible right now but in the future perhaps?)

Tried to run ctraging on citra, without any output after it detects the min firmware. Is citra limited to O3DS?

I tried that too, it just blackscreens. I think it just hasn't all functions implemented aging needs for (low-level-)testing.

    @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.

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

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
  • cearp @ cearp:
    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space
