SigHax Is Released!

[ATofix]

So I successfully installed sighax on my N3DS but whenever I try the combination (START+SELECT+X) at boot to dump the bootroms as stated in the guide, it just boots to luma configuration.

same. whywould you want to dump them anyway?

 

[naddel81]

Luma3DS updates. That is all.

so Luma3DS stopped support for a9lh, too?

Yeah, sighax is litterlly just arm9loaderhax but better and even more low level operating.

So I have to install a new hack again? or is it just swapping a file or two on my a9lh machine?

It's a painless process that uses your current arm9loaderhax installation to seamlessly install itself.

and on my emunand (sysnand 9.2) machines I need to hardmod?
why was a9lh completely removed from 3ds.guide?
isn't it easier to instal a9lh and then update to bootstrap9 instead of hardmodding?

I just did 3 systems, did some speed tests to see if any difference, it seems to boot about a sec faster now.

You don't need to hardmod...

 

[naddel81]

You don't need to hardmod...

3ds.guide tells me so.

https://3ds.guide/get-started-(new-3ds)

 

[wicksand420]

Hardmod is only needed on 11.4

If you go through the guide it actually does have a section if installing B9S without a hardmod, with your firmware. It's just not shown in front of you, this link appears at the end of soundhax section.

Not on 9.2!

 

[naddel81]

Not on 9.2!

but why does the guide tell hardmod even on 9.2?

 

[wicksand420]

but why does the guide tell hardmod even on 9.2?

If you already have hardmodded your console.

 

[naddel81]

OK, so on my a9lh machine I need to replace some files on CTRNAND AND SD Card, right?

and on my emunand machine I need to make a copy of my emunand and then reimport it after bootstrap9 install?

 

[wicksand420]

I'm not sure about emunand, I've never used it. All of my 3ds's use the sysnand, i never saw a use for emunand.

Confirmed issue when I rushed installing on 2DS, have to make sure the Luma file boot.firm is copied to the SD card root.

That's kinda crazy it doesn't safety check for that...

 

[fille]

just installed it,all went fine.

 

[nl255]

Probably because it isn't a safety issue. It doesn't prevent the hack from installing or cause a brick.

 

[Procyon]

For anyone who somehow doesn't know what SigHax is, it is the new a9lh. It grates total control of a 3ds system. Also installing CFW on 14.4 can be done now through ether a hard mod or DSIware.

Wasn't it 11.4?
