    Hacking Gateway v2.0 Part 2: NAND Emulation

    I had in mind that someone told it in an other thread, but by now I just found a comment by n1ghty http://gbatemp.net/threads/nand-flash-dump-3ds-xl.350668/page-12#post-4758631 where he stated that missing tickets are just not shown. So if they are not deleted, then everything is fine :)

    Hacking Gateway v2.0 Part 2: NAND Emulation

    There ins another important point! Let's say you currently run an emuNAND with 6.3 and bought a game from the eShop. It will be downloaded to the sd-card and the ticket is stored in emuNAND. So back in the physical NAND with 4.5 the OS checks if every ticket from the sd-card also beeing...

    Hacking Nand Dump - Downgrader / File Changer

    I can recommend HxD - it is a free Windows tool (mh-nexus.de/en/hxd)

    Hacking Nand Dump - Downgrader / File Changer

    To be more concret with the technical informations from 3DBrew (www.3dbrew.org/wiki/Flash_Filesystem): 150 MB - 500 MB = 0x09.600.000 - 0x1F.400.000, so you oerwrites parts from the twlp, firm0, firm1 and nand filesystem. It would make more sense to replace just single partition firm0 and...

    Misc System halt on wlan attempt

    Yesterday I experienced some trouble with the wlan functionality. When I activated the wlan, the system halted after a few seconds with the message that a failure occured and that the system is going down now. After some testing it seems to be correlated with the child protection, because after...

    Really? I thought it was caused by too-long wires...

    Hardware nand flash dump (3ds xl)

    I don't want to try it to be sure. It depends on where the bootloader is located (separate ROM or write-protected NAND area).

    Hacking NAND chip

    In my opinion it is not necessary to have cpu based logic for switching. Man could simply block the signals with an external gate chip plus a flip-flop. The days of good-old piggybacked chips are gone since smd form is used because now, all pins are located on the (unreachable) bottom side...

    Hacking 2DS Hackable?

    I think, the firmware will be identical to the 3DS, because the only differences are the absence of the 3D slider and a separate sleep-mode switch to simulate the collapsing? Otherwise they cannot quarantee the compatibility to 3DS games including updates. Also the release numbering will be...

    Hacking NAND chip

    I am wondering about the NAND chip THGBM2G3P1FBAI8: It is stated by 3Dbrew to be 1GB sized, but on the website of a decapping company it is told to be 2GB - refer https://chipworks.secure.force.com/catalog/ProductDetails?sku=TOS-THGBM2G3P1FBAI8&viewState=DetailView&cartID=&g= So which size is...

    Thanks! They look very promising.

    Hacking Advanscene 3DS offlinelist datfile for CRC check!

    I'm not aware of a 3DS tool from that site, I only saw the dat-file. Is there a special tool for the 3DS or can it be handled by the RToolDS as well?

    Hacking Advanscene 3DS offlinelist datfile for CRC check!

    The script sometimes fail on larger rom files, so here is an update to solve it. And it wasn't a waste of time because I found several files with different checksums :blink:. Better download them again before my GDS arrivals.

    Hacking Advanscene 3DS offlinelist datfile for CRC check!

    It is quite simple to program an offline rom checker. I just made an easy python script to do it. It is called from a command line in the form 3ds_crc_check.py <filename> The list of titles and checksums are read from the file 3dsreleases.xml in the same directory. Edit: I took a look at the...
