Hacking Arm/Kernel 9 Loader Hax Guide (Featuring A9LH rxTools!)

[seijinshu]

Isn't it still a little bit early to be pushing for people to use RxTools with A9LH when it doesn't offer FIRM0/FIRM1 write blocks yet? I know the guide suggests emuNAND, but there will inevitably be a wave of people who come to complain about losing their A9LH when they use sysNAND and update, thinking it's safe like the other two CFWs (ARN and Cakes).

True, I also did mention AuReiNand. Plus like I said, it isn't my fault for the outcomes of this guide on other's systems.

this guide seems unnecessarily complicated but that's probably just because rxtools is, either way your font is way too big it'd be nice to be able to read more than one line at a time

 

[Filo97]

Nothing compared to what Roxas done.

That might be true, but Still it isnt dead! They are Still adding features!

Doesn't change the fact that your recommendation is dangerous and will inevitably lead to unnecessary bricks.

 

[Billy Acuña]

Eh. AuReiNand doesn't have the AGB_FIRM and region on-the-fly patches rxTools has.

You can patch AGB, TWL and Home Menu, with CIA patches.

They removed most of the features except CFW in the latest builds.

Will be fixed.

Some people don't want to patch them with CIA's. Some want them on the fly.

Isnt it only for arm9loDerhax?

No. Latest build on the master branch only has CFW as well.

Yet... I am making sure rxTools is still an option. I have added AuReiNand as an alternative.

I am sure this is temporary! It can't be...

Nope, according to AlbertoSonic it's permanent (they're even considering renaming it).

Hmm... Majority of the tools in rxTools are available via decrypt9.
EDIT:I might even here before long just set them up with AuReiNand...

 

[astronautlevel]

Hmm... Majority of the tools in rxTools are available via decrypt9.

And the decrypt9 ones actually work, unlike rxTools.

you should look at my edit. Might reconstruct this guide.

And decrypt9 also is a payload! And bootctr9 exist!

 

[seijinshu]

Yep. Like how I have it on my tutorial.

RxTools ones always worked for me (except nand backuping)

I don't see the point of making another guide when Plailect's is fantastic and should be the go to guide for anything at this point.

Most of the tools broke sometime in december when a new commit broke them and they never fixed it.

Eh. Lots of people don't know how to google though. I agree. The one issue is that it has changed too much since I used it (5 weeks ago -ish)
