Hacking 2.0b to newest version

[youra6]

Hi Guys,

I've been out of the game for about a year now and I'm currently on version 2.0b.

I couldn't find any threads on how to upgrade to 2.6 and I'm not sure if there are any special precautions I need to take.

If anyone can point to me a thread or provide me any help to get 2.6, that would be appreciated.

Almost certain you just download the new launcher.

Almost certain you just download the new launcher.

Whoa, that easy?

Then Go to emunand --> System update?

You'll have to do an FPGA update the first time you enter emuNAND but other than that just replace the launcher.dat and you're good to go.

Put the new launcher.dat on your SD, that's it.

Will that update automatically pop up?

Yuuup.

 

[youra6]

Yuuup.

You guys are awesome. Thanks!

Ok to update the emunad firmware?

 

[bartekowca666]

Yup, it's fine to update EmuNAND

 

[youra6]

Yup, it's fine to update EmuNAND

Thanks, can anyone else confirm?

It's fine. Just make sure to update via system settings. Double check the version you're on has "GW" in it while you're at it.

 

[youra6]

Cool. Again thanks for the help!

Will that update automatically pop up?

If it doesn't pop up then hold the r trigger before hitting ds profile and it will force updated again

The FPGA update is included in all versions?
You can put 2.6 directly or do you need to first update to 2.0/2.1 first?

I guess 2.0b -> 2.6 is fine, but just need confirmation
I'm still on 1.2, I never use it. I was reluctant to update because of the brick code inside the update, but nobody triggered it for month, I guess it's safe. I still don't like to have that code present.

Ah, a side note: when they first introduced the FPGA update, a lot of users had an error due to bad soldering job.
They said they were working on fixing that error. do anyone know it that error is still an issue or if they managed to fixed it software-wise?
