Something like Rockbox would be neat. I know it's for MP3 players, but it pretty much offers what you're talking about. This is actually the first piece of homebrew I ever used in my life. Used to run it on an iPod Classic in middle school. I'm getting nostalgic at the prospect of running it on a 3DS, heh.
It was my first sip into installing custom firmware back in like 2005 I believe, it's been around for a long time. Sadly, I don't think it's seeing any more updates. My 2nd venture into custom firmware was DD-WRT for wireless routers. I still flash all my routers with it, and I'm glad modern routers embrace the open-source community now, rather than fighting them.
Last update was 4 days ago. It still has a very active community.
Dad, is that you?
Not really. The SD bus is fucking slow as hell and the 3DS reads each title every time. It's slow and amounts to a poor user experience and a lot of additional wear and tear on the SD card. There isn't 300 interesting games on the 3DS either way so there's no reason for it. Installing an SD card large enough to even install that many titles causes other read write issues because the 3DS is kind of old and not designed for it.
I'm addicted to it on my other hacked consoles too and I feel ridiculous. My Wii U, PS2 and Xbox have ridiculous menus for no reason whatsoever. I haven't played 1/3rd of the games on there. I've only pared back my 3DS because of the slow load times and it is a portable handheld. I have around 120 titles installed? That's with GBA, GB/C VC games though at least.
i had this problem but with steam, i have an 80 title library, must have played like 40 and only finished like 20
Because it's enormously difficult and offers little benefit..? I thought you said you read the thread.
Strictly in terms of capabilities, that is hardly different from Luma.
This.
You hardly need to rewrite the firmware just for that. There are already apps for unwrapping lots of items at once. I believe Cthulu is preferred.
nah its not that. i nudged the flap and it caused a split second disconnect. The SD card itself is fine. i suppose maybe i just have a weak card reader, i've had this 3ds since the year after launch. probably not a big deal as its only happened about twice and normally everything just works
Well, yes: if there was a split-second disconnect, then that means some information might have been written incorrectly to the SD card while that disconnect happened. That is how corruption happens, and unfortunately the FAT32 filesystem is notoriously susceptible to corruption. Maybe things appear to be fine now, but you could run into problems if the 3DS ever tries to read that corrupted data.
Fair.
and i'm still looking for it. 10 years worth of memores.
That was a read / write of a full empty sd card for the test that was done yes?Fair.
It's a new card with not much on it anyway aside from just 3ds stuff, most of which i can replace. The only one im worried about losing data on is already missing somewhere
But anyway, I'll go ahead and run a disk check in KDE partition manager while I have time tonight.
EDIT: so KDEPM didn't seem to wanna work, but the GNOME one did and it says everything is okay, so...
dd exists but OK
I've had a bad experience with GNOME Disks, to the point I opted to use GParted instead.Fair.
