Homebrew Unlaunch DSi | First public bootcode exploit for DSi

Have fun reverse engineering it then.

I don't think any reverse engineering is necessary (hopefully not, because that's way beyond my shitty area of knowledge) but hopefully some light hex editing is all it takes. I'll give it a try when I get home and report back with steps on how to install homebrew to the launcher later if I find out how (unless someone already knows)

Maybe Apache thunder knows?

I'm 95% sure you could use any TMD as template, didn't test it tho.

Yeah that's what I was thinking, just use a tmd and edit in the correct ID. I'll see if thst works when I get a chance

Awesome! Happy to see the DSi scene isn't dead yet. (well, it kinda is dead...)
I got it installed successfully in no$gba. I had to do it manually since the installer always froze on "Loading FAT"
And no, it's not brick proof yet, I was able to brick it by going into Data Management. I'm not going to try it on my real DSi until it's stable enough and mostly brick proof

I spent so long trying to figure out why it wasn't booting when I remembered I had to add the no$gba footer

Added an Unlaunch installer to TempNand successfully, I'll be releasing it ASAP. Unfortunately, I won't get to test installing homebrew to the launcher quite yet, because I need to sleep, but I'll hopefully get around to it sometime.

 

[ThisIsDaAccount]

The TempNand release is up and running.

To install unlaunch to a nand backup, just click the "install unlaunch" button and navigate to the unlaunch.dsi file.

Obviously, you should always test in no$gba and be careful flashing to your dsi without a nand backup and hardmod.

Sup guys long time no see. So I'm understanding that Unlaunch isn't really for anyone without a hardmod correct? If so is a version that is more stable on the sd card in the works?

Tbh tempnand is buggy so I don't use it. Twltool actually reads my encrypted band properly :/

TempNand uses twltool, so if your nand works in twltool it should work in TempNand.

Also, are there any specific bugs you've encountered? That way I can fix them and hopefully convince you Or maybe there's something you don't like about the interface?

Yeah there is a bug I have been experiencing.
Whenever you try and load a nand dump it just says its not properly encrypted and nothing happens.
Every time. Lots of people report this as well. Which is why I prefer the .bat file in the DSi Nand Tool Pack.

Thanks, I had no idea this was happening. I'll try to get this fixed as soon as I can. Also, where have you seen it it be reported?

Also, what operating system does your computer use?

Saw it on NDS(i)Brew Discord. And on this site in the RocketLauncher thread (iirc)
I use Windows 10

I'll try to recreate it later and see if I can fix it. If I come up with a possible fix, do you mind if I PM you so you can check if it works?

Also, thanks for the info, I haven't yet been on the nds(I)brew discord. I didn't see anything on the rocketlahncher thread but maybe I missed it

Sure you can go ahead and PM me.

The statement "Do not use any bootcode exploits until RocketLauncher is released!" is bullshit.
-RL needs downgrade, this doesn't
-RL needs a supported cartridge, this doesn't

This is clearly superior to RL in about every way. Sure, it's still a bit buggy and still in beta, but after the few remaining bugs are ironed out (which can be in a week) this is clearly superior to everything RL can and RL probably won't be released until this is perfectly stable.
Who knows if RL will be released anyways? This renders it completely useless.
And who knows which unknown bugs RL has when/if it gets the first release.
I have the impression that dsibrew discord is salty because they weren't informed about this and now their work is basically worthless to most of the userbase.

That was put there when it was first announced and we didnt know much about it. I will take that off now.

You may want to add that ugopwn and 4swordhax can't be used to install this. Tho you can install other hax with them which you can use to install this.
