Homebrew ARM9Loader -- Technical Details and Discussion

[dark_samus3]

Umm.
I just installed this and now when I press the power button it instantly turns off...

EDIT: Didn't have the ARM9 payload BIN file on my SD, but now aswell it wont boot without the SD in, just hangs on blackscreen, nor will it boot my rxTools. Anyone have a copy of Decrypt9 that'll work?

Cakes (with a small mod) and AuReiNand (and ReiNand if you're on n3ds) all work, we don't have screen init yet, but if you wanna navigate Decrypt9 blindly the bootstrap bin file works

Why always quoting my super illegal fork ? C:

because you're the best and that even the links in the OTP guide are super duper illegal as they contain 2.1.0-4

OK, I do now think it's bricked. It did shutdown on FIRM1 install, and it wont boot AuReiNAND. Time to wait 2 weeks for my birthday to get a hardmod >.<

Does it shutdown when there is no payload on SD ? (don't remove the SD, tho.)

 

[Deleted User]

Yes.

 

[dark_samus3]

Yes.

it's installed fine then

 

[Deleted User]

Ah, forgot FIRMs *insert facepalm*
EDIT: Still no boot! Do I need to place the A9HL firmware BIN file at root? (not the loader BIN)

Can I use arm9loaderhax for anything besides aureinand

Not really, and that's why you shouldn't have done it yet.

But is there a way to access Decrypt9 with a GUI, so that I can restore an old sysNAND?

boot AuReiNand with the 9.0 firm (it's included in the AuReiNand firm pack) and start it via whatever preferred method

Put in root, or SD:/rei-o3ds/firmware90.bin, or SD:/rei-o3ds/firmware.bin?

Rename "rei-o3ds" to "rei".

Done, still black screen.

Done, still black screen.

You're rei folder should have 3 things.

A folder named "emunand" and two firmware files. (firmware.bin and firmware90.bin).
