If I'm reading this correctly, this documentation is a starting point that would allow CFW devs like @Aurora Wright, to implement Gateway red cart support to her CFW?
I know this had already been achieved years ago with in private pre-rxTools custom firmwares.
I would love to never have to boot into Gateway Mode again. But, I guess it's way too much work to benefit a (comparatively) very small group of people sadly.
Knowing the cart protocol is just a small part, you need to write an arm9 thread to be running to communicate with the cart, add hooks in Process9 for the gamecart ROM reading/savegame reading+writing, have an arm11 module running to have a menu to interact with the arm9 code to choose the game and stuff like that.

Thank you for chiming in on this Miss. It's even more work than I'd thought.
Since the CFW side of things (Gateway Mode) hasn't been RE'd by anyone (not since 4.x to my knowledge anyhow), we'd essentially be starting from scratch.
Like, all of them.
"All" is an absolute, which part are you struggling with?
more like AAC/MP3 to 16bit and 24 bit FLAC music files.. a9lh+Luma being Spotify/Apple Music/Google Music which is noob friendly whereas those who prefer 3DS/3DZ is equivalent to those who would purchase a disc or vinyl and rip the data themselves..
anyway, good to have alternatives..
3ds,nds or gba?Thank you for chiming in on this Miss. It's even more work than I'd thought.

sweet. cant wait to play psx isos full speed. and ive been waiting for a good way to play n64 on the go.Like, all of them.

it's way more complicated than you may think. i have a ds2+, i reversed Supercard's CFW. doing the init the exact same way as they do, no success getting my ds2+ to init properly (wrong spi reply); however it works on a gw red card for some reason.
no documentation available, but shinyquagsire did a small lib for r/w raw sectors on a gw red cart, initializing it etc.
private pre-rxTools cfws used gw's FIRMs, afaik.

the arm11-side code isn't actually necessary (gateway hooks into menu tho, afaik). the p9 thread mostly is for the OSD/rom selector. cart communication is done with the hooks.
saying that is pretty untrue btw

oh shit rxtools got a flashcart
Jokes aside, if it means what it says then thats a gateway killer for sure.

Thanks for providing additional information. Now, at the risk of veering further of topic...
Which part? I was very careful with the language I used particularly "to my knowledge".
I figured that just as NTR had been RE'd privately, that Gateway to some extent likely had been too. I just wasn't expecting anyone would confirm it publicly
Late to the party, I see.
Do people still buy 3ds flashcarts anymore? :U
Don't buy this. Save your $$ ££ ¥¥ €€ PP. XD
