Hacking Some Questions about the Process!!

[Angelita Perez]

I am sorry for that, I thought I waited at least 20 minutes before I did it. Won't happen again.

I was in the middle of doing it so I stopped and waited for the answer. All this is beyond my skills so I want to be careful.

So I can just copy all the folders from old micro to new micro? then go ahead with the hack!

so simple?

Yes, you can go ahead and copy the folders from the old SD card to the new one.

I did the first part of the guide, now I am at "Finalizing Setup"
I put the files dspi.cia ,lumaupdater.cia etc in micro sdcard and put the micro back to the 3ds.

the guide jumps to updating the system and I am confused.

"Updates while using B9S + Luma (what you have) are safe"

Do I need to boot into B9S + luma? how? or my 3ds is just already hacked when I boot to normal screen?


"Launch the Download Play application" <-- where is that? or how to see it?

Thanks in advanced!!

 

[Lacius]

To check if you have B9S and Luma3DS installed, hold Select when you turn on the 3DS. If it comes up with the Luma3DS 8.1 configuration settings, then it is 100% safe for you to update your 3DS.

The Download Play application is a stock application that comes with the 3DS. It's on your menu somewhere.

Yes, I did as you said and it shows luma, so I will just boot normal without holding select and update like a regular 3ds?

The guide pictures miss some folders and sometimes gets a bit confusing in the wordings!

"Updates "while" using B9S + Luma (what you have) are safe" <-- sounds like I needed to be inside a
cfw running that I need to see. Then again I am such n00b!!

Should I be online after update all the time? is that safe? or turn wireless back to off forever?

I want to say super thanks for your patient with me and the super help.

If you have Luma3DS and B9S installed, they're automatically running at boot. It is 100% safe to update to 11.5 now. Follow the guide to the end.

I think I am finally done with first new3ds hack.

"To use NTR CFW, install BootNTR Selector."

Do I need to do that?

Also I want to double check since the picture may be missing something:

I can safely delete from sdcard:

otherapp.bin
safehaxpayload.bin
soundhax-usa-n3ds.m4a
cias = folder
hblauncherloader = folder
boot9strap = folder???? that looks important!! ?

those are the files my sdcard has that the last picture doesn't have!

Don't delete cia's, hblauncherloader, and otherapp.bin if you want the homebrew launcher and NTR CFW isn't necessary

You can delete those files and folders. You're done with them.

NTR CFW is optional.

If you have CIA files of your games, you can install them with FBI. Alternatively, you can setup freeShop and download your games that way.
