Well first you need a cfw system.
1. boot the ntrboot_flasher.firm app (with your b9s cart inserted)
2. Select r4iSDHC RTS lite
3. Dump flash
4. look in sdmc:/ntrboot/backup.bin
5. upload
i only have godmod9 with start as cahinloader
what should i press when booting that file?
Put the ntrboot_flasher in SD:/luma/payloads/, then hold START on boot, you'll see ntrboot_flasher there.
In addition, if we get a whole bunch we can figure out what they mean by this cart specific key.
the person who tested if reading from the B9S cart flash worked allowed me to share their flash backup, for those who have bricked carts and want to try and restore to a state with working ntrboot. (@Yandere-chan) (if you do, could you take a backup first so we can see what the bricked flash looks like?
)
That's just godmode9 warning you to be careful. It won't write anything if you don't tell it to.
That warning happens regardless of what you do, every time you boot the app.
Just only select r4iSDHC RTS lite --> Dump Flash
and you'll be fine. It only reads your cart.
Hi,
The reason was confirmed that the engineer did not consider that each B9S card has a different key, which led to fail after being flashed. We will release a new version to fix it tonight. but previously those cards which have run the flasher program will not be able to recover. We will send you a new one ASAP, and I want you to tell this information to other users of GBAtemp forum who have the same problem as you. We apologize for the inconvenience, and we will strictly test to ensure that similar problems do not occur again. Thanks in advance!

Recieved that from the team via Email.
My bricked backup.bin will be uploaded shortly.

My bricked backup.bin will be uploaded shortly.
And for the ones that got their card for free from a reseller?
I think we will just have to contact the reseller. I can't see there being an issue as in order to provide a review that's honest and accurate we need a working product.
Also, here is my bricked firmware from my r4i-B9S card:

Just random bytes. So I assume that flasher wrote garbage due to using the wrong key.
Would be interesting if you were to flash a good r4i-sdhc or even r4i-b9s backup.bin to see if it might work.
Not going to ask you to do that, of course. Just thinking out loud

I've actually flashed the good backup sted in the thread a bit further up and it seems to have restored the NTRBoot functionality. I'm just trying to remove CFW from my 3DS to confirm it

If just for PC I would recommend an external hard drive like 2 TB and just build your own bootable drive -

Although even if it's the steam deck and a 1TB MicroSD I would still recommend building it yourself.... Almost all the builds I tried just sucked
