    Homebrew DSi Downgrading - The Complete Guide

    I used a WLC100 iron (around $30 if you get a used one) a needle tip, and one of those "helphing hands" things with the magnifier. For points this small, you don't really want a non-adjustable iron. Also, you REALLY don't want to make this your first soldering project. The points are tiny and...

    Homebrew DSi Downgrading - The Complete Guide

    DSibrew is kind of an inaccurate source due to most of the information being written before the DSi private key leak. Here's a chart I made that is more or less correct:

    If you follow the guide you'll be downgraded to 1.4.0. (version data will still say 1.4.5, but the launcher and settings titles will be at the exploitable versions).

    Hacking EZ Flash IV 2.0 Kernel Release - No more patching

    Everyone who's complaining about loading speed being the same: The first time you load a game, it defines whatever offsets it has to patch to get the battery save working in the "PATCH" directory. After this, the next time you load a game it'll be as fast as on the 1.7x series of kernels.

    Homebrew [RELEASE] TWLTool - DSi downgrading, save injection, etc multitool

    The consoleid string format is known (08a[1/2]nnnnnnnnnnnn) so it should be possible to brute force it, given a lot of time. Note that gbatek says that the consoleid starts with 08A19 or 08A20, but that's incorrect- mine starts with 08A15.

    Homebrew [RELEASE] TWLTool - DSi downgrading, save injection, etc multitool

    Today, I tried making a "fake 1.3 whitelist file" by deleting the last few sections (NDHX and NDHI) of my 1.4 one. While it does still work and boot legitimate titles (simply deleting the file causes opening anything to give you the "an error has occurred" screen), it still won't boot my...

    Also, the laptop thing only works if you have an old laptop that treats the card reader internally as PCI or something, not USB. The Biggest Loser is only like $3 anyway

    Fwtool has a "dump CID" option, as well as a "restore nand_dsi.bin" option.

    Homebrew [RELEASE] TWLTool - DSi downgrading, save injection, etc multitool

    The problem with that is that it's kind of a catch-22. You can't hardmod your DSi without getting access to Data Management and a program that can be copied from NAND to the SD card (you need that stuff to get your ConsoleID from the .bin file on your SD card, which is needed for decryption)...

    I can dump the rest of the stuff with Fwtool, but how'd you dump biosdsi7.rom and biosdsi9.rom? There's no publicly available method and even the no$gba help file (turns out the full version's only on the debug edition of no$gba) says that it's not fully dumpable.

    Actually, Nintendo's official page (and I guess gbatek) is wrong about that. US launch DSi consoles came with 1.2. Here's a screenshot of an unboxing video from 2009 that shows a DSi with 1.2: 1.2 was kind of a "stub firmware" in that it wouldn't let you access the shop or Data Management...

    Homebrew [RELEASE] TWLTool - DSi downgrading, save injection, etc multitool

    Nintendo tends to not put stuff that was preloaded on NUS, so unless some cool guy uploaded that somewhere you may have to find a DSi on 1.2 or 1.3 (pretty sure the only difference was that 1.2 wouldn't let you access data management or DSi shop unless you updated). Anyway here's a table I came...

    How'd you manage to get No$GBA working? The help file mentions having to create a custom header for your NAND image but it says there's an "invalid index" or something (it's been a while, forget the actual error) when I try to go to the section that mentions the header format.
