Homebrew DSi Homebrew Channel (requires sudokuhax) (DSi Entry)

spinal_cord · Mar 19, 2011

For anyone who has sudoxuhax on their DSi and is already tired of keep renaming all there homebrew to 'boot.nds' to test, here is 'DSi homebrew Channel'. It sure makes loading homebrew from the SD slot a lot less of a painful experience.

Download - Homepage, filetrip mirror

Instructions

Copy boot.nds to the root of your SD card
Run sudokuhax
Select homebrew with d-pad then press A.
Up/Down - cursor up/down
Left/right - cursor up/down x 10
L/R - jump to end/start of folders or files

Features

Loads homebrew from SD card
16 level battery monitor
Current date + time display
Username display

Limitations

Loads ONLY homebrew, you should expect nothing more.
Currently can only use up to 2gb SD cards, that is a limitation of the current libnds.
Currently no settings, even if there were some, they can't be saved anyway (SD access is currently only read only).

I don't want to take too much credit for this, it is based on hbmenu, all I really did was make it look nice.

*Update
HBChannel now loads photos taken with the DSi (when transferred to the SD card).

Anything smaller will also work.

That's the thing all my SD's are bigger, I lost all my small sizes. Time to buy another. XD

Damn,I have no sudohax.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Snailface · Mar 19, 2011

Works fine on regular DS too!
(as long as card isn't sdhc)

Yay, HBmenu isn't ugly anymore!

Vigilante · Mar 19, 2011

The only way this could become better if it had support for dsiware.That would be the bomb!

this is fantastic

I have a problem though..

I grabbed a copy of the Sodoku game when the hack was discovered but was not able to figure out how to inject the save file under Mac OSX.

Can anyone help me with that?

I thought there was a mac version of the hack in the download? dsiwarehaxinj_v10/builds/mac64/

Dammit, I wish I had SudokuHax, but oh well.

8BitWalugi · Mar 19, 2011

First up, great job Spinal!

Next up, what's the compatability like? I tried GenriDex, PokePong, and Multiview, and only Multiview worked.

And what about emulators/SSB Clash?

neokingster · Mar 19, 2011

Got the Sudoku games ages ago but never ran sudokuhax, however when im trying to download the client from bootmii there is a server error. Is this just me or are there others with the problem?

spinal_cord · Mar 19, 2011

As far as I know, the compatibility should be the same (or similar) to the sudokukax itself, there is no compatibility to load older homebrew, so only new DSi mode homebrew will work properly. There is no possible way to make older emulators run in DSi mode or use the SD card.

DSx86 works, I think that is the only emulator currently working.
there is a thread somewhere with a list of older homebrew that works with sudokuhax, but none of the older stuff has sound or touch (i think).

Nice too see the official release!

I am so grateful for this, it is awesome.

I VOTE THIS FOR THE WINNER! lol.

Great work Spinal.

Gh0sti · Mar 19, 2011

Wow. This looks pretty awesome.

I didn't download the Sudoku DSiWare in time, though. I guess I won't be able to run this homebrew.

This. I'm a bit sad that I managed to get the DSi XL just after the exploit was released. Could have used it just for the fun of it...

Nice brew though. Looking good spinal!
