Hacking 3DS NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

[Venat]

Haven't updated in a while, can I simply do that without some downside?

Currently 11.0.33 or something with a9hl and luma.

If you use A9LH and Luma, use StarUpdater, StarUpdater-UN or Luma Updater and update to the latest Luma, then update the system through Settings. It'll be fine.

is there any mods i can do to my 3ds running 11.1.0 ??? or should i sell it to purchase one i can mod so i can run (A9LH)

 

[Bonovox40]

Nope, this is the recommended way to use your Gateway with a9lh :-)

One other thing. If I DON'T want to install al9h at the moment, is there a way to use menuhax (which I installed from part 1 of the guide, and I stopped at part 3 at this point) to boot into GW emunand, while also being able to use the redcard? Or is that not possible without al9h installed first?

Yep, you can use the boot.3dsx provided from Gateway and set it up as you would Luma. Either install menuhax then replace boot.3dsx with the one from Gateway (easiest, but you can't get into the homebrew menu anymore), or set up a boot manager (I don't know how to do this but there's plenty of guides around).

You can still use homebrew if you have Cubic Ninja or Freakyhax. But you can't downgrade and use CFW (unless you have a second hacked console or are willing to send it away for a hardmod). If you can sell it and buy another with 10.7 or less for the same amount of money I would do that, or if not then send it to someone for a hardmod (shouldn't cost you more than $50 and they might install a9lh for you to save you the trouble).

If I change my n3ds region from eur to usa via this https://github.com/Plailect/Guide/wiki/Region-Changing will I get a new friend code and will all my old friends be gone?
I have an NNID linked to the 3ds but I don't have any purchases I care about

Thanks for answers

I have a9lh and Luma installed on my N3ds xl, sitting on Sys 11.1. For some reason, it takes a full 12 seconds to boot, anyone know why this could be?

Do you have menuhax installed? Do you have a lot of games?

 

[Darklinkreturns]

Do you have menuhax installed? Do you have a lot of games?

I did, but I wiped my 3ds and started over from scratch when I installed a9lh. and no, not a LOT. About 25 games, half of them VC.

Why would you want to change your region? Luma is region free!

People like me, set up an emuNAND and region-changed it. I followed the guide with a O3DS XL but sadly the eShop isn't working, for whatever reason.

Do you have an O3DS or a N3DS?

As stated, O3DS.

Would anyone help me with building JKSM? I haven't built any homebrew before so not sure what I am doing. The libraries it needs are all good I think, but I get an error in 3dsx.cpp about FS_Archive. Does anyone know what I need to do to fix it? Here is a screenshot of the error:

Edit: I found this in fs.h:

Result FSUSER_OpenArchive(FS_Archive* archive);

So it really does seem to be being called with too many arguments. But the code can't be wrong. Is there a header file or something that I haven't included that contains an overloaded version with more arguments?

If you really must know.
I bought a eur n3ds (small) when they first came out. I live in us.
The reason for all of this is mario kart 7, whose fucking download play is region locked.
I would like to dlp with my friends.

I mean if you can find a way to make download play region free, I'm all ears

Grab it from here? https://github.com/xerpi/sftdlib

Yep. I'll download it and make it again though, just in case.

I found an instance of the same method in https://github.com/smealum/sploit_installer/blob/master/source/filesystem.c but it includes hardly anything so I can't see where the method is defined :-/ (just 3ds.h and filesystem.h, neither of which declare the method).

I fixed the one about FSUSER_CloseArchive by, in 3dsx.cpp, changing FSUSER_CloseArchive(arch); to FSUSER_CloseArchive(&arch); but that seems totally wrong. Shouldn't the github code be in a working state?

Edit:
I deleted libsftd and libsf2d and attempted to make them again, now I have the same error with libsftd that I had previously fixed (I am sure it was just putting sf2d.h in libctru/include, but doesn't work now). :-(

I wish someone smart could just zip up all the libraries in the devkitpro folder, for the amateurs to just extract and get on with what they wanted to do. Rather than spend a whole day on trying to be able to compile and get nowhere :-(

It doesn't work if you install an USA CIA?

no. download play is region locked.
it freaks out if you try to make a room in the wrong region.

might as well turn my eur 3ds into a usa 3ds while i'm at it

I think you can use a US cia but you have to do something with the user agreement to set it to already accepted (otherwise it goes in an endless loop where you can't agree to it).
