Old 3ds XL

Old 3ds XL

Ah there's your problem. You are using a new 3ds 9.2 ctrtransfer, you need the o3ds version.

Hey! Just noticed that in commit notes that Luma supports booting 1.x Native FIRM?

Does this mean what I think it does?

Thank you for your help before, you were right.

I have now progressed to the point where i am installing .cias.

• Launch the Homebrew Launcher from the home menu
• Select "DSP Dump"

I am booting up the homebrew launcher and getting the message after a bit of loading - "the homebrew ropin is ready"

Then a black screen on top, with a dead pixel.

And a red screen on the bottom.

Do you have boot.3dsx on the root of your SD? I'd assume yes, just want to get rid of that being a possibility.

Hmm i currently do not have boot.3dx in the root, Should I?

Yes you should. It's needed to launch the Homebrew Launcher.

 

[TheCyberQuake]

Yes you should. It's needed to launch the Homebrew Launcher.

I moved them to PM to answer questions to keep A9LH questions out of the luma3ds thread.

probably You lost your tickets for your games. Do you have any backup for the Nand?

6.1.1. official
DS games no problem
GBA games, no problem

If you have digital purchases from eShop from before CFW installation, you should avoid opening eShop. It will rebuild your ticket db and remove unsigned cia installation.

Can you guys gime some ideas to improve my Luma3DS 6.1.1 boot rate?

I cant install A9LH. So i'm using MenuHAX 3.1
The boot failure it's not menuhax but its Luma3DS.

So please, help me out figure out what makes Luma3ds Boot rate so low. Becouse i didnt have it with Rxtools.

It's goes black and wont boot sometime.

I'm boot direcly "luma3ds.3dsx" not using boot manager or crtmanger etc.

And please, don't say to me to install A9LH because it's just cant. Long history.

I mean inserting a NDS game cart into the system and playing it.
Can nds roms even be converted?

I don't think they can.

 

[Sonic Angel Knight]

I don't think they can.

Yeah, i didn't think so either. Unless nintendo did it themself i guess. Wondering how they not have NDS VC for 3DS by now if it has potential to do so. Honestly, some bad moves nintendo.

I'm not Hihomaster but can someone explain this to me further? I have a A9LH/sysnand/Luma3DS o3DS, which had legit eShop digital purchases from before I installed CFW. I have visited the eShop since installing the CFW and not noticed any problems.
