    Homebrew How much does TWL mode help perf in NTR carts?

    Of course I know the CPU speed is 2x what it was previously but a boost in CPU clocks doesn't always result in better performance(like the jak and daxter set on the vita with the 494Mhz OC beyond the default 333mhz). My biggest thing is of course loading the games, and saving the games. I know...

    Homebrew does fastboot3ds fix "black screen on bootup"?

    Well I'm glad to know it wasn't my uSD card. now I just wish I could figure out which case it went in(because I bought a new one I may put it into my dstwo for the games that ndsbootstrap doesn't support). Thanks for the help.

    Homebrew does fastboot3ds fix "black screen on bootup"?

    Well I'm glad to know that I wasn't crazy. I can feel better in the fact that it's not my n3ds that's on it's way towards paper-weightville. I was about to pack it back up into it's box and just order a n2dsxl and call it a day. I'll wait till they have pushed that bit of code. Do you know what...

    Homebrew does fastboot3ds fix "black screen on bootup"?

    I was hoping it was something with boot9strap and how it did things to the firmware that caused it to break apart. I don't want to have to be another new3dsxl and I'd _like_ to know what the hell is causing this issue. As it's annoying I replaced uSD cards did the 4 formats and checked the uSD...

    Homebrew does fastboot3ds fix "black screen on bootup"?

    Basically does it fix this issue? This one keeps happening to me repeatedly with luma and boot9strap. https://3ds.hacks.guide/troubleshooting#black-screen-on-sysnand-boot-after-installing-boot9strap I know that fastboot3ds is supposed to be an alternative to boot9strap for people but I was...

    Hacking N3DS boot soft-lock with Luma randomly clearing homemenu data fixes it.

    badblocks is basically like HWTest or F3 except that it A) It talks to the drive as a raw device not one with a file system(it doesn't deal with the filesystem in write mode it writes to the raw device w/o any filesystem overhead). And B) it lets you specify the patterns. The default set of...

    Hacking N3DS boot soft-lock with Luma randomly clearing homemenu data fixes it.

    I've already run badblocks on the brand new uSD card and it's doing the same thing as it did with my old data after copying it over from the old SD card. I don't know if the data itself is going crazy or what. What's the easiest way for the 3ds to verify that all installed data is good?

    Hacking N3DS boot soft-lock with Luma randomly clearing homemenu data fixes it.

    For some reason if I clear the homemenu extdata from godmode9 then the n3ds will boot just fine. And if I boot w/o a memory card in the n3ds it also boots just fine. It happens randomly. I've already tried replacing the uSD card with a brand new one that I tested and came back fine. For some...

    Hacking 3DS NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    OK real talk now, I can't find my original thread but I could've sworn I asked previously. For some reason my n3ds xl is corrupting homemenu extdata randomly. At first I thought it was Captain Toad doing it but it also happened with Picross 3d(whatever the second one's called). I thought it was...

    Gaming Heroes of Ruin random softlock. Maybe AP?

    For some reason every _single_ time I try to finish this game there comes a point after the second dungeon where the next quest never unlocks for me. This is similar to the issue I had with Dungeon Siege on the PSP. There'd be a quest where you needed to get some staff or something but the quest...

    Hardware How important is 4k random to loading speed for games.

    I never heard of portrait of ruin being so bad but then again I wasn't big into metroidvania games when I first got my DSTwo, I didn't imagine that it'd make _much_ difference when it came to load speeds as long as it's doing at least ~6MB/s read and 1MB/s in 4K randoms at least as that's what's...

    Hardware How important is 4k random to loading speed for games.

    As the title says how important is the 4k random speed to the loading times for 3ds games? I know that the 4k write will matter when it comes to saving the games but how important is this for the games themselves on my n3ds? P.S. I just replaced my old uSD card in my dstwo with the samsung EVO...

    Hacking how to confirm sd2vita adapter is working and isn't just DOA

    Yeah no, it's the memory card's contents that are the issue, using umdgen and converting my cso back to an iso causes an error about LBA mismatch. I'm going to say that vitashell has managed to fuck my memory card, I wish I would've known that this was an issue from the start instead of just...

    Hacking how to confirm sd2vita adapter is working and isn't just DOA

    I don't know what the hell's going on here. Does the vitashell corruption extend to ruining the cards and making them unstable after formatting? if so that could be it, and I can just copy over ur0: as I am on a vita 2k and just delete the tai folder.

    Hacking how to confirm sd2vita adapter is working and isn't just DOA

    I did badblocks(linux drive testing software) wrote to the whole drive 4 times with different patterns and read it back to make sure it worked. The final pattern was all 00s to zero out the disk. Formatted to exfat and did h2wtest's linux version(f3) and both testing methods said everything was...

    Hacking how to confirm sd2vita adapter is working and isn't just DOA

    here's all the logs. I get the activity light but that's it. Nothing more happens and it's annoying as hell. I formatted to exfat(not using the sd official formatter) with no volume label and reinsterted it and still nothing it's driving me up a wall. Both adapters are giving me these issues. I...

    Hacking xbox 360 ODDE vs RGH

    Well I guess I'm going to have to go with RGH then as I have no idea how hard it's going to be to dump my own games and I might as well take the plunge earlier rather than later. On my psp I dumped all of my own games b/c it was fast and easy. On DS?(way too fucking slow), 3ds?(clusterfuck...

    Hacking List of games that benefit the most from l2+clock on n3ds?

    Only game that has real issues that I ever heard of was final fantasy explorers and that's _only_ the beginning boss fight that you have to run away from but after that it's AOK with L2 enabled which is what I've always done on every game I've played since I got a n3ds+theoption to enable it...
