Tutorial
Updated
Using "smashhax" with Linux
If you can use the browser, I suggest that you use the new browserhax (up to 11.0.0-33!) in the meantime.
Try out Ubuntu 15.04: http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/15.04/
This requires a New 3DS. The demo version doesn't work and is patched. If you have 1.1.3 or newer delete/disable the update data.
officially called smashbroshax sometimes smashax
Here is a new tool I call smashbroshax-helper. It is a graphical interface for the exploit which simplifies most of the process of broadcasting the packet. It requires almost no setup outside of creating a bootable Linux USB/DVD.
Important notes:
It is recommended that you use a live Ubuntu 15.04 image. Versions 15.10+ have issues. http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/15.04/

Important notes:
- This does not work on Fedora or Red Hat-based distributions because aircrack-ng needs to be compiled on it (and I can't figure out how to install the needed things).
- Don't use a virtual machine!
- This probably will never work on Old 3DS.

- Create a bootable USB/DVD with a Linux distribution (there are various guides online).
- If possible, get a second USB/SD card/storage device, download and save the above .zip to it.
- Don't extract the contents of it to the USB device, as it might cause problems. Just save the .zip file to it.
- If you can't do this, you'll have to connect to the Internet while in Linux to download it.
- If using a bootable USB, make sure you can use two ports at a time. Don't take out the Linux USB while it is being used!
- Restart your computer and run the bootable USB/DVD you created.
- Extract the contents of the .zip to the Desktop.
- Open the smashbroshax-helper folder and double click "smashbroshax.sh".
- Follow the on-screen prompts.
- If everything goes well, you should now have homebrew!

If you would like the full tutorial, involving terminal usage and compiling:
To reverse the changes to your wireless interface and remove issues connecting to networks after, rebooting your system or changing it to "Managed" instead of "monitor" should fix it. How to do that is in the second to last section.
@Cydget made a script that condenses most of this into a script. I have not tried it myself yet but it seems to work for others.
Requirements
@Cydget made a script that condenses most of this into a script. I have not tried it myself yet but it seems to work for others.
Requirements
- Any Linux distribution should do (this has only been tested with Debian-based distributions). Windows and OS X users should wait or find a method for now, sorry!
- Please do not use Linux in a virtual machine, it likely won't give direct access to your wireless card. Dual boot or use a live USB/disk.
- The recommended distro to use is Ubuntu 15.04 (link to Ubuntu MATE 15.04).
- A Wi-Fi-capable wireless card.
- Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS Full or Demo.
- New 3DS. This does not work on Old 3DS.
- Patience. The hax is sort-of unreliable so your game will most likely crash a few times.
- Recommended: Another device to access the internet (phone, tablet, computer, console).
- Install these packages using your package manager. For example, "apt-get" for Debian-based distributions (including Ubuntu).
Code:
openssl libssl-dev libnl-genl-3-200 libnl-genl-3-dev libnl-3-200 libnl-3-dev pkg-config - Find your wireless card's interface by opening a terminal and using the command "ip link". It would be something like wlan0 or wlp3s0.
Code:
ian@ian-VPCEG34FX:~/Desktop/aircrack-ng-1.2-rc2/src$ ip link 1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00 2: eth0: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000 link/ether xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 3: wlan0: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,ALLMULTI,PROMISC,NOTRAILERS,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state DORMANT mode DORMANT group default qlen 1000 link/ieee802.11/radiotap xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff - You probably already have it, but get the homebrew starter kit and place it on your SD card.
- Download the smashhax .pcap files from the releases section of the smashbroshax repository.
- Determine the .pcap file to use. This should be straightforward using the file names.
- Get the "Otherapp payload" from the Homebrew Launcher site and save it to "smashpayload.bin" at the root of your SD card.
- Download and extract aircrack-ng's latest release source.
- Save aireplay-ng.patch from the smashbroshax repository in the folder "aircrack-ng-1.2-rc2".
- Open a terminal and go to the "aircrack-ng-1.2-rc2" folder.
- Use the command "patch src/aireplay-ng.c < aireplay-ng.patch". If you get the following then it has succeeded.
Code:
patching file src/aireplay-ng.c Hunk #1 succeeded at 560 (offset 1 line). Hunk #2 succeeded at 573 (offset 1 line). - Run "make" and wait. The program should be compiled with the patch now. If you get the following as the last line then it has succeeded.
Code:
make[1]: Leaving directory '/path/to/aircrack-ng-1.2-rc2/src'
- Run these 3 terminal commands in order, using the wireless interface (from "ip link") you found earlier.
sudo ifconfig wireless_interface down(the last line was suggested by @difool. and might make the payload trigger faster)
sudo iwconfig wireless_interface mode monitor
sudo ifconfig wireless_interface up
sudo iwconfig wireless_interface channel 6 - Enter the "src" folder in your terminal.
- Run the following command to start broadcasting the packet: "sudo ./aireplay-ng --interactive -r /path/to/smashbros_version_beaconhax.pcap -h 59:ee:3f:2a:37:e0 -x 10 wireless_interface"
Use the .pcap file and wireless interface you found out earlier. - On the 3DS system, start the game, then choose Smash and Group. Wait for the magic to happen.
- Does running aireplay-ng end with "End of file"? You might be running your installed version of aircrack-ng. Don't forget the ./ for "sudo ./aireplay-ng ..."!
- Please tell me the distribution you are using and the error you've encountered. This will help me fix your issue faster.
- If you don't get something, don't hesitate to point it out! I want to help anyone I can.
- Did you spot an inaccuracy or mistake I made? It would be great if you can tell me that too.
- This was before the Otherapp payload selector was added to the HBL site. This is kept here for legacy reasons or something.
- Determine what file you need to get from the Homebrew Launcher Payload section:
The end result is a file named "smashpayload.bin" at the root of your SD card.With the release builds, the hax loads the payload from SD "/smashpayload.bin". This should contain the hb-launcher(https://smealum.github.io/3ds/) otherapp payload. Until there's a proper otherapp payload selector on the hb-launcher site, the payload can be downloaded from the following URL(see also https://github.com/smealum/sploit_installer):
- "https://smealum.github.io/ninjhax2/Pvl9iD2Im5/otherapp/{PAYLOADNAME}.bin" Where {PAYLOADNAME} is: "FIRMVER_REGION_MENUVER_MSETVER".
- "POST5" = non-New3DS
- "N3DS" = New3DS
- "U" = USA
- "E" = EUR
- "J" = JPN
- "11272": Non-JPN, system-version v9.0.
- "12288": System-version v9.2.
- "13330": System-version v9.3.
- "14336": System-version v9.4.
- "15360": System-version v9.5.
- "16404": System-version v9.6.
- "17415": System-version v9.7.
- "20480_usa": USA, system-versions v9.9-v10.0.
- "19456": Non-USA, system-versions v9.8-v10.0.
- "8203": System-versions below v9.6.
- "9221": System-versions starting with v9.6.
- Determine what file you need to get from the Homebrew Launcher Payload section:
