Hacking 9.3.0-21 Nintendo 3DS Update Released

[Doran754]

Man I just want a little more information before I purchase a N3DS, just a quick statement, I dont even need a frigging release date. I just want them to say something along the lines of, all features currently available to 4.x users will be available on 9.x or all features except: just something crystal clear so I know where I stand otherwise I'm gonna end up with like three 3DS's lol and im no collector aint nobody got time for dat!!

Id rematch the video and make a changelog but i'm too lazy.

Just go watch the video. everything in it is more or less what is supported on 9.x. Work with what you've got.

Oh and the method how, people are saying cubic ninja is the entry point etc. I don't mind the tedious DS profile route, like I say just a little more, the video was helpful though.

No one (at least not from the non-casual pirates) have said this. What has been guessed is that Ninjahacks shared one of the MANY exploits with GW's method, so that's why Nintendo blocked GW by blocking one of the Ninjahack's stages. Probably Nintendo analysed that such stage could lead to a kernel exploit.

Yes, just press "No" to the prompt and you will be fine.
Yes, you need soldering to restore a NAND backup.

He said emuNAND. No soldering, just use the emuNAND tool to reinject a backed up emuNAND into a freshly formatted one.

We know that Ninjhax exploit is half-fixed with the 9.3 update.
So I highly doubt it.

Really hmm might need to try this

Ok so after doing some more testing I found this. I left my wifi on and left my 3ds on sleep mode. After a couple of minutes I saw my blue spotpass led flash and I immediately opened the screen to see a message about an available update for my system. I have never seen this before because I usually turn off my system at home and never let it in sleep mode. So after seeing this message I cancelled it and turned off my device and then on again. I never saw this message again no matter how many times I rebooted my 3ds so I guess because I have spotpass disabled the update is not downloaded but only popped a notification. So I guess it is safe to have wifi on with spotpass off since the update is not downloaded to bug you all the time about updating but only a notification comes if you let wifi on in sleep mode and then disappears till you let your 3ds in sleep mode again with wifi.

makes sense. I know some people have bandwidth caps, Imagine they disable spotpass, and it downloads anyways... when you have bandwidth caps, the last thing you need is it wasted.

What do you mean it downloads?
That it actually downloads and pops up a notification every time you power on the 3ds?
Or it just shows the notification after sleep mode and if it is turned off the notification disappears?

i have heard there is a way to delete the update from the sd card but i dont remember how to do that and i havent gotten an answer on that since i asked yesterday seem to be go by unnoticed on here

because you can't one guy was claiming he found some super secret way....but he was bulls**ting....even if you remove your SD card it will still prompt and still download updates in sleep mode as they are stored in the system nand

 

[digipokemaster]

well

it did remove the prompt to update which i didnt have to deal with anymore but cant remember how i did it

i mean people would be rightly pissed if the update was downloaded, regardless of spotpass. pretty sure it's illegal too.

so it makes sense why you aren't being pestered by it.

 

[gamesquest1]

well

truth is the update prompt can be kinda random, i seem to remember reading if you pick no it will only pop up again after a hard reset.....but even then its seems to be fairly random sometimes it wont pop up for a good while then other times it will pop up after every hard reset....but if you boot up a game it wont pop up until you hard reset again.....bleh i have no idea how it decides to pop up....its just *random*

 

[jimskeet2002]

Well I don't think mine downloaded cause I don't believe it managed to download the whole update in 2 minutes. Because the led flashed like 2 minutes after I set my 3ds on sleep mode...
Also the notification hasn't popped again and I have turned off and powered on the device like 10 times since that happened. I will see how it goes next days but my thought atm is that since spotpass is off it gets only a notification on the 3ds without the update being downloaded.

Sheesh. Gateway just had to announce the exploit BEFORE the n3DS was released in North America. So there will be no chance to find American n3DS with appropriate firmware.

Nintendo probably found it on their own, by revising their 9.x updates. Also sspwn could have led to it if it was used in the gateway exploit, thanks to the release by smea.

just be super cautious. Don't want it sneaking up on you and you insta-pressing 'A'

Hmmm I don't think it will pop again but even so I don't think that the update will automatically engage if you press A. I believe it will need some more confirmation actions.
Also I went in my settings menu and to the update system button and it still asks to connect to internet to download the update. This reinforces my thoughts that it is not downloaded but just spotpass notification

 

[Kylecito]

You need to physically touch the "I AGREE" button on the EULA to start the update.

i can see 8.1 > 9.2 N3DS/XL/LL becoming pretty rare.
