Homebrew GW + 11.3 kills a9hl?

[H1B1Esquire]

Does this work for GW?

This is strange. Huh...

 

[Brawl345]

This is not true. I launched the Gateway payload just yesterday, it only gets stuck on a blackscreen, because GW is not compatible with 11.3 for now (just like rxTools f.e.). I just launched Luma3DS and everything worked and I still have A9LH. When you think about it, it doesn't make any sense - why should the GW payload "destroy" a9lh? smh

His story doesn't really add up.. He was able to get a n3DS instantly for the same price as his? I don't know, but it seems like he's just a Gateway hater that's trying to spread false news.

same here i updated using luma, boot gateway payload and BOOM a9lh destroyed

Do you have emuNAND?

no

 

[proflayton123]

no

You updated in GW mode on sysnand? You're currently SOL.

 

[RyDog]

no

Ok, that's the problem. Since Gateway doesn't patch firm0/firm1 (idk which one exactly) Nintendo must've overwrote firm0/firm1 when the payload was booted.

no

no

Time to get a hardmod, and restore a NAND backup. Then make a 11.2 emuNAND for Gateway only, since Gateway isn't safe to use on sysNAND.

 

[heraymo]

i have to ask why would anyone use a gateway on a modded 3ds to begin with i just don't understand ;p

He may be fucked, since 11.3 stops hardmod downgrading IIRC

No, a NAND restore would restore him to what his 3DS was like when he created the back up. What you're thinking about is the minimum nativefirm requires to boot, which killed downgrading with hardmod/dsiware.

yeah yeah i'm totally a gateway hater, that's why i kept it on my desk and wait for better answers than that
instead of saying shit like this try to be helpful.
and yeah i had the chance to sell my "no more a9hled O3ds 120€ and find a brand new3ds xl for 130€
want proofs?

anyway from what i read on my reddit thread it doesn't seem to affect n3ds but i won't try without hardmod

you! gateway hater!

ok i'll stop, did you have a o3ds or new?

nope a second user who had the problem could restore his 11.2 a9hled sysnand with harmod

real-time cheat searching and memory editing on the console (no computer or network required). There's really no other reason left that I can think of, but it's a damn good reason. With cheats, it took me nearly 50 hours to get through Dragon Quest VIII (I never played it before so...). I don't have that kind of time to just grind my way to better stats.

Downgrading is not the same thing as flashing an older NAND image. The only way to prevent writing an older image is to flip the write once bit, which in effect, locks the system into it's current state (can never write to nand again. No upgrades. No system setting changes. No adding or removing titles or tickets. nada)

Ok, sorry. I thought you were lying since you go out and sell + buy a n3DS the same day without any issues, and I was able to test GW on 11.3 and didn't run into this issue. But then when @TheGreek Boy confirmed it, I then figured out that it's because of Gateway sysNAND, where I have emuNAND.

i was on sysnand luma too
so we still don't know if it's o3ds only...

Its sysNAND only. Regardless if you have an old3DS or new3DS, if you launch Gateway's arm9loaderhax payload to boot Gateway CFW 11.3 sysNAND, Nintendo must've added a firm0/firm1 restore function for when you boot your 3DS, so since Gateway doesn't patch that, Nintendo can overwrite it to remove A9LH.
