Hello guys have I'm trying to cfw an old 3ds on v9.8.0-6e using soundhax. I have went to the hombres launcher however there doesn't seem to be a payload for my version which doesn't make sense I'm not sure what to do. I have tried getting home brew through browserhax however the link says browser to is not supported. Browser version 1.7630. Is there any suggestions that might help.

Um.. Try the 9.9 soundhax anyways, can't hurt. Also there's tons of hacks for that version. If anything try the flashcard hack

Yep this is the flashcard method.. Plus you get to have a nds flashcard lol 2 wins right there[/QUOTE I was hoping for a free way like soundhax because nds flash cards are quite pricy. I'm waiting to see if smealum free exploit will work on my system

Um.. What do you mean? I didn't mention anything about being expensive or anything lol. I myself used soundhax and was on vers 9.9 when I got cfw. That was before ntrboothax was known,

I'm not to sure if my system is legitimate cuz I've searched all over the Internet to find that no one has the same firmware as me.

What you got is a Frankenstein firmware, the previous owner updated the system using some physical cart game, the last part in the firmware 6e doesn't get updated.

Is there anything I can do about it.

If Browserhax / Soundhax doesn't work for you, then you gonna need to spend some money to get access to CFW, Not 100% sure if you can update to 11.8.0-41E. As for other method, Dsiware cost $2 but you needs to be able to access eshop and update to 11.8.0-41E, then there is the NTRBootHax , If you have a R4 card around theck the list below, and last option is hard mod which will cost the most if you can't solder wires.

I think. I found link to downgrade so things should be ok . As long as I can downgrade my 3ds to firmware 9.2 . My friends got a 3ds with cfw via hard modding maybe he can help.

Downgrade these days isn't worth it, there is the chance of brick, then you would have to buy a NTRboot card

Only if update to 11.8.0-41E works for you, Im not sure if Frankenstein firmware can update via system update.
It can, else how are you going to "fix" that on an unmodified system? lol

How are you going to downgrade, without the ability to run homebrew (arm9 or otherwise)?

    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.

    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
