I'm now getting a new error. When I launch the firmware in No$GBA I get, NO$GBA - FATAL Missing DSi BIOS dump (need RSA keys)

Did you run the BIOS dumper directly from Unlaunch?

Also make sure they're named exactly as the guide says, BIOSDSI9.ROM and such

I dumped them from twighlight menu, should I rename the bios bin files to what the guide says?
Dumping from TWiLight will not work, you need to run the dumper from Unlaunch. It gets parts from leftovers in RAM which are cleared by the time TWiLight's loaded.

Yes, rename to what the guide says.

I have tested, AND THE POSITIONS SAVE! Everything on the NAND is working as normal! Am I now ready to restore the NAND on my DSi?

Before I restore my NAND, I first dumped the NAND when unlaunch was not installed, of I restore with unlaunch installed, will the restore cause the NAND to delete unlaunch?

Hi @Pk11,
I used DSi Language Patcher and updated DSi system and now i have 3 titles Launcher in NAND. So i want to use NAND Title Manager to delete some but it doesn't show any NAND titles to me.
How to show all NAND titles? Thanks.

The one from the language patcher isn't a properly installed title, it's just nand:/Launcher.dsi so NTM won't be able to see it. The normal Launcher cannot be deleted as NTM doesn't allow editing risky titles like that on SysNAND as that's simply way too easy to brick your console with, I will not be adding an option to uninstall the Launcher.

It shouldn't really hurt anything to have extra copies, but if you really want it gone you can use ninfs to edit the NAND backup and follow the restoring NAND guide to flash that, that's safer since you can test in no$gba that you've done it right before committing to anything. It shows the paths on the bottom screen in Unlaunch for what to remove.

Just posting to report that I managed to install these 3 titles with no problems at all on my 1.4.1U DSi.

I could have never imagined I could have Cave Story installed into my DSi. It was something I've always wanted since I knew about it.

Honestly, thank you really much for making this possible. <3

I'm not planning on modifying my DSi's NAND ever after this, btw. lol

Not exactly an NTM update, but this seemed like the most relevent thread...

Thanks to a new patch by @SNBeast, we now have a way to patch Unlaunch to keep the splash/sound while also having RSA/region lock/flashcard patches! It'll be in the next TWiLight Menu++ update, already added in #2070.



Note: Most homebrew (including Wordle DS shown here) doesn't work quite right when installed to NAND due to an issue in devkitPro's SD card driver, they work fine with the SD in, but if you load them without an SD they'll just crash on white screens. There are a few that work correctly though like TWiLight Menu++'s BOOT.NDS (and ONLY the BOOT.NDS) and GodMode9i.

Ok so I wanted to put one of my dsiware in the SD Card but I keep getting
"This software could not be copied to the SD Card" So I used NTM to backup the title but when it says are you sure you want to backup "Game ID" And when I click yes it just freezes, is backing up DSiware not available yet?

Is there a way i can have TwiLight Menu++ and the Last-Run ROM in my SysNAND using this?
I had HiyaCFW before but i deleted it cuz is slow loading
Yeah, just install BOOT.NDS, and title/0030015/534c524e/content/00000000.app for last ran ROM. Note that Unlaunch's launcher patches are required for homebrew to work, use the TWiLight Menu++ nightly/wait for the next release if you want splash/sound.

Backing up should work... I just tried with my (American) copy of Cut the Rope and it works fine... Is it called 00000000.app? It's kinda hard to see in your picture, if it's not that maybe try the latest commit as I did a fix related to that, I don't think that should be the case for a retail DSiWare though...

It seems that making backups is broken if NTM is loaded from TWiLight Menu++ somehow... Try loading it directly from Unlaunch or from GodMode9i.

Edit: Found the issue, it was crashing because of a null pointer dereference (not sure why it only happened when loaded from TWiLight), I've fixed it in the latest commit.
