Hacking NTRBOOT IS OUT!!!!

[XDee]

you need a new build of the flasher. ak2i was fixed like 3 hours ago.

Awesome, thanks! I didn't look at the commits, I just downloaded the .firm file.

So, for those with AK2i cards, wait for the next release of the flasher, or use the one posted here: https://gbatemp.net/posts/7508558

EDIT: just confirmed @squall14716 's build works fine and added it to my post

Or clone the git and build it right now. No need to wait, really.

I get the "Supported cartidge not detected" error when I select to dump flash too with my ak2i HW81. My card is working without problems as a regular flashcard and I tried the alternate build @squall14716 posted, tried to fix the contact issues and tested it with both my old and new 3ds. Is there something more I can try to make it work or I should give up and buy a R4i Gold RTS?

Edit: I now see that there is an update coming and that we should wait, but will this update fix the "Supported cartidge not detected" error or it will just fix the other problem with the injection?

I'd like to install this in a way that instead of loading boot.firm from the sd, it would load something like ntrboot.firm instead. Is that possible, and if so, what would I need to do to set it up? Compile b9s by myself somehow?

Correct, a .firm payload (signed with the alternate keys, usually but not necessarily B9S-ntr) is written to the flashcard itself, what it does (for example loading another from the console's SD) is that payload's problem

@lostdotfish @HK$ There's a commit on github that supposedly fixes AK2i injecting.

Restore and try this build: https://www.mediafire.com/file/clomdkas66nxbg8/ntrboot_flasher.firm

Just to say this worked first time with my AK2i that was refusing to boot thanks

So does this work with a powersaves yet? Curious since I don't have access to a hacked 3ds but I have a powersaves...

Then someone with Acekard2i already unbricked or installed CFW on 11.5 with this? And worked? Bc dont works for me.

Another confirmed working here.
The original build said everything dumped and injected fine but the card did not boot the B9S installer.
With this build everything worked as it should using Acekard 2i HW-81.

That mean u already hacked a 3DS or unbricked it? I have that release and still not working for me D: Do u Acekard2i still working how a flashcart?

That mean u already hacked a 3DS or unbricked it? I have that release and still not working for me D:

It was on 11.5 with boot9strap CFW installed. Then I removed the CFW with godmode9 uninstall_hax_retail_OLD.gm9 script so that it was back to booting stock 11.5 with no CFW installed. Then Used the NTR flashed Acekard 2i to re-install B9S.

And ur Acekard2i still working how flashcart while u used it for that? And what HW was?

Just order from NDS card. I have ordered many cards from them in the past to the UK.

more recently they enforced the ban

Thanks, @Ryccardo , It worked great. I installed it using the ntrboot_flasher.firm build squall14716 linked onto a rev 81 ak2i (thanks for that). It booted up both safeB9Sinstaller and godmode9 I had renamed to ntrboot.firm instead of boot.firm on an 11.5 CFW'd o3ds (boot.firm is Luma with splash, would have been easy to tell if it didn't work). It has also maintained flash cart capabilities. That was one thing I was a little worried about losing with ntrboothax (sure, I could revert, but it's nice to have it be functional both ways; devs did a great job there).

I have a problem, my O3DS doesn't turn on when the magnet is in the sleep mode specific place (even with the button combination)
what should I do?

It take several attempts btw, just keep trying , double check your files and make sure there is no content inside the Flash Cart SD when you flash it. I managed to get one of my 3ds into Safeb9sinstaller using NTRBoot

I asked in another forum here and got the answer, looks like the powersaves method is being finalized at, with hedgeberg saying sooner or later for a release. So if I had to guess I'd say something will be out in the next few weeks. I'm still shocked they got my little ol r4i card to work on it. Very glad they listened because I remember posting on a couple threads asking specifically if they could look into that card when this first got announced and they did! Great work guys, looking forward to that powersaves release!

 

[GravitySuitCollector]

@Dragon806 Hold the power button for like a second, and then release all the buttons once the power light's on for like a half second or so? I'd have to do multiple tests to determine what exactly works best. I think the main thing is to hold power until the LED comes on, rather than button mash it. If it fails, retry. I might be wrong....

 

[whostolemywaffle]

wait is this the thing that uses a magnet?

 

[GravitySuitCollector]

Yes, along with a compatible flashcart.
