    ROM Hack CTRPluginFramework - Blank Plugin - Now with Action Replay

    This no longer works for the latest Luma version. When I replaced the boot.firm with the one provided here, my O3DS no longer boots. I get a black screen that says something along the lines of "unable to apply patch". Luckily, I created a backup of my original boot.firm. A video sent me to this...

    Tutorial NAND Dumping 2DS/3DS/3DS XL/N3DS/N3DS XL!

    Sorry for being quiet for so long, home life etc.... I read through some of the recent posts, problems I have encountered etc. I'm glad those of you who encountered them have managed to fix them. The SD card reader issues, however, are a little tricky. Even for me. Unfortunately, it looks...

    I had a similar issue. One of my ribbon cables wasn't seated properly and I completely forgot to plug in another one.

    Hacking Plaisysupdater stuck on "Attempting svchax..."

    I persevered and got there in the end. I used browserhax as my entry point into menuhax and proceeded with downgrading from there. Time travelled allll the way back to 2.1 via 9.2. Broswerhax into menuhax is very unstable at 11.0, but nintendo weren't able to completely block it. It still took...

    Tutorial NAND Dumping 2DS/3DS/3DS XL/N3DS/N3DS XL!

    So it's been a week since I started this mod, and I am happy to say I am now running A9LH Luma on 11.0. Regarding the questions about soldering, here is what I have learned during this mod: The contacts, although they appear to be shiny and solder-able, may be covered in a clear lacquer. If...

    Tutorial NAND Dumping 2DS/3DS/3DS XL/N3DS/N3DS XL!

    Aye, where I work I get to do a range of jobs from building data cables from scratch to fault diagnostics and pcb repairs, so I'm on a soldering station most days. When we have down time at work, I build wire sculptures using tinned copper wire and solder. My mum is a trekkie, so I made her a...

    Tutorial NAND Dumping 2DS/3DS/3DS XL/N3DS/N3DS XL!

    Oh I see, no worries :D Quick update on my progress, I re-soldered my clk and hooked my O3DS up to my laptop this time instead of my desktop, and it looks like it's reading the nand :D :D Wish me luck auto I'm working without a wire adaptor/socket, just straight ribbon cable. The downside is...

    Oh, I see. I only attempted to solder to the one on the rear of the board. I'm not going through the hassle of desoldering the cart slot to access just to access a pad that is the same size. Also: did he say 4 clk points? Are the other two also under the cart slot?

    Tutorial NAND Dumping 2DS/3DS/3DS XL/N3DS/N3DS XL!

    Yep, I probed between contacts on the motherboard and the pins on the sd card adaptor. I'm using color coded ribbon cable and have it marked out like this: SD CARD: PIN 2 = CMD(Bottom pad) = RED PIN 3 = Supply voltage ground = BROWN PIN 5 = CLK(reverse side) = YELLOW PIN 7 = DAT0(Top pad) =...

    Tutorial NAND Dumping 2DS/3DS/3DS XL/N3DS/N3DS XL!

    First I just want to thank TheToaster for all of his work and putting this together. I tried this hard mod on my old 3DS and I get the blue screens and boot error message as expected, but when I connect my card reader to my pc and try to run win32diskimager, there is no drive letter available...
