Homebrew [Discontinued] TWLoader - CTR-mode NDS app

[RocketRobz]

It registers the R4 card in the home menu as a blank cartridge. So would I just push it in after insertion when loading a game?

If it already registers the R4 card, what is your flashcard's microSD card size?

2gb, the default for the original R4 cart

Your R4 cart might be one of those variations where it doesn't work, even with Stage2 Launchers.

Does this run DS games (retail/commercial) now? I've seen it a long time ago but it didn't run it,does it run now?

It works with Apache Thunder's Stage2 launcher

Are you sure YSMenu.nds is in the flashcard root?
If it is, it should've worked.

Sorry for bothering again,but whats the difference between the normal version and the TWLNAND version?

I think this update can be called: "Further improvements to overall system stability and other minor adjustments have been made to enhance the user experience" just as Nintendo with 11.3.0-36

I sometimes wish Nintendo would tell us the truth. Some regular (non-CFW with no homebrew) 3DS/2DS users might be waiting for an explanation.

Yeah I wish one day will Nintendo say: "We're releasing this update to stop user to get a CFW" but I doubt Ninty will admit that "stability" updates are for stop that tbh, but for us It's a bit funny they say that updates are for stability and improve our experience

I have two questions: What is arm7 donor/donating and how to activate the LED feature thing? I've read the FAQ but i haven't explored the app itself too much.

To set a donor, press SELECT on a game with saves working (Mario Kart DS is recommended), then touch "Set as donor rom". If you have a donor rom set, games that don't work with saves will now save, due to bootstrap (the SD rom loader) applying the arm7 binary from the donor, to the rom you're running.
Also, to set an LED color, press SELECT, and touch "Set LED color".

Install or update the bootstraps in the settings screen.

Thank you!

 

[Ryan-H]

You need to install bootstrap by going to the settings menu and pressing the X and Y buttons

EDIT ninja'd

Thank you!

The latest update fixed my problem. Thanks robz.

Hi guys, a little confused about certain points.

1) So do I scan the QR codes with FBI, and that's all I need to install?
2) Is this safe (Can I brick myself because it's unstable and a .n3ds refused to boot?)
3) I understand it's a front-end, so will I need to install nds-bootstrap first?
4) Finally, is this functional on 11.3? (I am currently on 11.2 Luma3ds CFW.)

Thanks so much in advance!
