Hacking 3DS NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

EDIT: As what does the Acekard show up in the 3DS menu with NTRBoot loaded on it?

I have no idea, I haven't tried it yet. I'm planning on unbricking a Japanese console I have, but the battery is still charging, so it'll be a while.

Hmm okay good luck with that! I have no need for a NTRBoot card yet but it will ease my mind knowing I have one lying around should something happen to my 3DS

You need to use a 3.5mm male to male audio cable from your 3DS to your PC's Mic/Mic In port.

How can I set up an emuNAND to easily switch between 11.3 and 11.5?

Thanks! And good luck with your project too.

Thanks! Apparently it's pretty easy to convert Acekard clones into legit ones but you need a original dump of an Acekard and it seems the only one that was ever dumped was a HW ID 81 one, my clone has HW ID 44.

Glad that I found this noob section ’cause I’m a real noob with 3DS…

So, we got 2 New 3DS LL (or XL) from Japan, one with FW ver.11.3.0-36J and the other with FW ver.11.4.0-37J. Of course, we would like to get CFW on them. Not only because of the region lock stuff, but also because of the benefit of running backups on them.
Now, I spent a whole day reading through tutorials, forums and blog posts, but the more I read the more confused I got… It seems that there are a lot of CFW’s and SoftMod/HardMods methods, etc. So, I thought I should better ask you guys: What are my most simple, easiest, cheapest options with these two devices?

Also, is there a way to run old (classic) DS games on the 3DS without the actual cartridges?

Thanks in advance!

For old ds games you need a flashcard

Thanks for the quick reply!

You mean, something like the R4DS card for the classic DS? I still have one somewhere... But I suppose I will need to have CFW as well?

Yes something like r4. You need cfw for 3ds games and to make old ds flashcards work. New ds flashcards work without cfw.

My 3DS has 11.4, is it safe to update to 11.5?

Also, I'm using Luma 8.1 and trying to use Luma Updater to update to 8.1.1, but it can't update, says "Could not find arm9loaderhax.bin", but I'm using B9S.

Update your Luma Updater version. You can do this through FBI's TitleDB feature. Look for Luma Updater made by KunoichiZ/Hamcha. And yes you can update.

TitleDB shows the non-existent version of Luma Updater. They need to find my thread or the Github releases page for LU to get the app. However, if they followed 3ds.guide, they should already have my fork of the app.

Oh really? If there's an error/something outdated in TitleDB who do we notify? Is there a github repo to create an issue on?

I've already asked on their Github if they could either change it or if they could remove it so that I can upload the proper version.

Okay, so just to be sure: 11.3 should be fine by simply softmodding it (Soundhax/Boot9strap/Luma3DS). I suppose I should be able to do it without much problems (I managed with my PS2, PSP and Wii at least back in the day).
However, as for 11.4, it would require a compatible flashcart or hardmodding (including soldering). Or waiting in hope that someday it will get a simple softmod solution...

Yes. The 11.3 is simpler. For the 11.4 one you can update to 11.5 and use the dsiwarehax and the other 3ds to install cfw on it

So, basically if I can get CFW on the one with 11.3, I can use it to get CFW on the another one with 11.4, right?

Hi guys with the new NTRboot I bought a Gold R4i DTS today.

I'm going to flash the ntr stuff in about 2 hours. This may seem daft but does the flashcard require an SD card in it or is it ok with just the flashcart?
