They actually "patched" savegame exploits with firmware updates on DSi by cheecking the savegames before starting the game (classichack and cookhack). https://dsibrew.org/wiki/1.4.4A good rule of thumb is that cart exploits *usually aren't patchable, but they may require a little bit of work and research to work on latest.
The way it's handled on 3ds is that for some blacklisted titles (*) the system will check for a "minimum version" and block the eshop title from launching if the update version is < minimum required, thus enforcing the user to run a patched game. This doesn't apply to carts though, for the reasons I mentioned in my previous post.They actually "patched" savegame exploits with firmware updates on DSi by cheecking the savegames before starting the game (classichack and cookhack). https://dsibrew.org/wiki/1.4.4
Do you know if there are current saves for oot3d that can be used to exploit the system? It was kind of primary, too because it could be used with a power saves device.
Yeah. I just wanted to throw that bit of interesting side information in there. Actually they probably did the same on 3ds to block the exploits, so it's technically how they did it on 3DS.

As above, 11.15E will require a Powersaves with the 11.10E payload, but a Powersaves that can be used for 11.7U can still be used on 11.15U without further modification. (Holy crap, has it been four years already?!)There aren't prepared powersaves images (or save files) for latest firmware, but I assume they could be made by compiling the repo with more recent *hax otherapp payloads (the otherapp needs to be embedded in the oot save because the game has no sd access).
Yes there is check YouTube for a guide on how to hack your 3ds 2022.Only the NTR one or also R4i? Also is there a way to hack a 3DS after eShop closes w/o extra hardware?
Youtube guides are often outdated, incomplete, and inaccurate and are usually not recommended.Yes there is check YouTube for a guide on how to hack your 3ds 2022.
Question on your kit setup. How do yo get stuff copied over to the targets 3ds without a pc?I just keep an NTRBOOT R4i Flash cart in my 3DS hacking kit. That way I can hack people's 3DS systems on the go, without having to lug my laptop with me.
But the ntrboot section of 3ds guide also contains mistakes from the beginning that were never fixed. One example that jumped directly into my eye: stargate works but isn't mentioned. Also, ntrboot tutorials don't really get "outdated".Youtube guides are often outdated, incomplete, and inaccurate and are usually not recommended.
The only guide anyone should need is http://3ds.guide .
How would that even work..? Isn't the Stargate a 3DS flashcart? And isn't the whole point of Stargate that it works without installing CFW at all? (And isn't it vastly more expensive and uncommon compared to the other options available there?)But the ntrboot section of 3ds guide also contains mistakes from the beginning that were never fixed. One example that jumped directly into my eye: stargate works but isn't mentioned.
Perhaps, but there are still important steps like doing a NAND backup and copying Luma to CTRNAND that tutorials can leave out.Also, ntrboot tutorials don't really get "outdated".
But it works. The stargate is both, a DS and a 3DS flashcart. You might even argue that it's one of the smoothest experiences because it works without flashing anything.How would that even work..?

The ntrboot section is a bit neglected. Maybe because not everybody owns a compatible R4 clone (or other) and pure software methods are available. Despite some minor problem, The Guide is (my personal opinion) the gold standard for softmodding a device – and huge problems in the 3DS section on GBAtemp often sound like this:But the ntrboot section of 3ds guide also contains mistakes from the beginning that were never fixed.

We can agree on that. Videos should link to the original source and obviously make it clear when they don't work anymore. But videos can also help in clarity etc. Also, people should ask the person whom's tutorial they followed if they have problems.What does get outdated on YouTube videos, even if starting with ntrboot, are "convenient" all-in-one packages with lots of software in the video description for "just extract to SD to follow this tutorial" (and the videos are often simply bad copies of some version of 3ds.hacks.guide to make some quick advertising money).
What exactly is an NTRBOOT R4i Flash cart?I just keep an NTRBOOT R4i Flash cart in my 3DS hacking kit. That way I can hack people's 3DS systems on the go, without having to lug my laptop with me.
I understand the need for a method not requiring Nintendo servers for the future. But I don't get this: Why avoid using a PC?? Some kind of challenge to make things harder than needed?quick question
With eshop closing and alternative CFW install process becoming more important, is it possible to make a single SD card install without a pc using a flashcart?
I have an R4i gold plus with the ntr switch that works. Would I be able make an SD card, pop it in a 3ds, install CFW, then copy contents to the 3ds so that I could then copy it back over to the original SD card without needing a pc in between?
I’ve seen some old scripts from 3-4 years ago, but not sure how relevant they are today.

An ntrboot cart is a flashcart which has it's normal firmware replaced by the exploit (ntrboothax) that allows us executing arbitrary software independently from the main operating system.What exactly is an NTRBOOT R4i Flash cart?
I looked it up and only found an RF1 B9S NTRBoot Card. Is that the same thing? I also can't really find any info on it.
Yes, that’s what I was wondering.I understand the need for a method not requiring Nintendo servers for the future. But I don't get this: Why avoid using a PC?? Some kind of challenge to make things harder than needed?
Did I understand this correctly:
===============
- Prepare an "special" SD with all needed files for CFW installation on a PC once
Well... it should be possible to develop gm9 scripts automating this. Still doesn't make sense for me when a simple copy+paste from a prepared folder on a PC can achieve the same with 98% less work.
- Whenever a console should get CFW, insert this special SD, do ntrboot into GodMode9 or Luma3DS chainloader for startigng SafeB9SInstaller
- Copy luma to CTRNAND
- Copy those to NAND (bonus drive, possibly new series consoles only -- or CTRNAND)
- SD:/3ds
- SD:/cias (with the homebrew software from finalizing setup page)
- SD:/gm9
- SD:/luma
- SD:/boot.3dsx
- SD:/boot.firm
- Remove special SD, insert SD that was in console before, copy files from NAND to SD
- Finalizing setup
An ntrboot cart is a flashcart which has it's normal firmware replaced by the exploit (ntrboothax) that allows us executing arbitrary software independently from the main operating system.
Many R4(i) clones are compatible and can be flashed with the exploit (and restored to normal operation afterwards if needed).

So 11.7.0-7U Ninjhax QR code will work on 11.15.0-47U 3DS firmware?I'm not sure where you get that idea, but a lot of sites with information on these are badly outdated or at least poorly maintained – which is understandable, considering that they aren't used much anymore. Freakyhax uses whatever payload you have on the SD card. (Presumably it will even work with universal-otherapp.) And the 11.7U payload for Ninjhax will work right up to 11.15U. See for instance http://smealum.github.io/ninjhax2/ .
That is exactly what I wrote, yes. (I have not tried this personally, but I have seen no indications to the contrary.)So 11.7.0-7U Ninjhax QR code will work on 11.15.0-47U 3DS firmware?
