Hacking DS Menu won't work on Stargate 3DS no matter what

[TimmyDL]

Hi.
I have a Stargate 3ds and the DS Menu won't work, no matter what i do with it.
My 3ds has custom CFW (with Godmode9) and it's on version 11.6.0-39U.
Any 3ds game works just fine, but when i change to the DS Mode, the DS Menu won't work.
Here's a video of what happens:



I followed the method on the Stargate 3ds official website (format in FAT32 mode, downloaded the DS Menu files and put it in the root of my SD card)
I have tried with two different types of SD cards, one SanDisk 8gb category 4 and one SanDisk Ultra 32gb category 10 and both of them had the same problem.

Please help :C​

could just be a bug in their DS menu code. Have you tried a previous version, if there is one.

Try the attachment. inside will be a firmlaunch_clean.firm.
Boot that with the luma chainloader and see if you can run ds mode on stargate.

This will at least tell us if there is a conflict between luma <--> stargate

Hey! I booted the firmlaunch_clean.firm and it worked! but when i return to the 3ds main menu and try to launch the DS Menu again, the same thing happens, what should i do now?

What this tells you is your stargate cannot work properly with luma - it probably never will knowing this flashcard team.
You will have to launch firmlaunch_clean every time you want to use stargate ds.

Well, better working this way than never working in the first place!
Just out of curiosity: What happens if i choose the option "Install FIRM" instead of "Boot FIRM" on the chainloader?

There is a fair chance it would just delete B9S because, well, B9S is a FIRM

You could try to avoid that incompatibility problem installing Fastboot3DS and Rei-Six as an alternate CFW.

Do people still use carts for their games? Even with custom firmwares already out?

I bought it cheaply, so i wanted to try something new.

Is there a tutorial for that? i would like to try.

Here it is. For addin' other CFW besides Luma3DS, follow the same steps you did for Luma but in a secondary slot, in I recommend Rei-Six, is far better that CakesFW (the other CFW supported by FB3D).

how much "cheaply"?

i bought it used for about $30 from a friend.

Thanks!

Try the link that he posted and follow his instructions, i'm gonna make a video later explaining the situation and showing a workaround, then i'm going to test other custom CFW to see if its just a conflict between luma and stargate.

I found a Stargate Menu Loader as a CIA that works if you have CFW installed. called _ds_menu.cia

Yeah actually I got that from someone on this forum I'll try to link him once I find it.

It was @Apache Thunder who helped me with this issue and the one who created that file so all the credits should be going to him.
