Hacking Can you install another cfw and uninstall your current cfw?

Can you install another cfw but uninstalling your current cfw? Im currently using Luma 7.0 3ds firmware 11.4 new 3ds xl

What the Arm9Loader™ does is apply the patches contained in arm9loaderhax.bin, so, you could just replace the Luma3DS™ payload with another one.

Which cfw was you wanting to use btw?

Part of my sticky actually covers this
But basically, CFWs only apply patches to the NAND and are basically only a means of reading the NAND. But you can safely switch and or multi-boot CFWs on the same system. In fact, I am running 5 different CFWs right now on my 3DS and I have never suffered any ill effects from doing so.

 

[Glyptofane]

Yes, you can.

As a dev its ok to have 5 (extended testing)
But why the heck do you need 5 CFW's?^^

 

[OrGoN3]

tl;dr: Yes because these aren't actually CFW's, they're just a bunch of system patches.

She is a advanced tester. She needs to keep up with all CFWs she tests

 

[OMGancho]

can somebody make a tutorial or something I want to multi boot corebink

 

[dAVID_]

Yeah, you see, Corbenik™ is a CFW™ mainly intended for developers and has a Noob™ aggresive GUI.

Because I am one of the Temp's most well known testers and CFW enthusiast.

I am going to be honest with you and don't take this personally. If you don't know how to do this, Corbenik might not be the CFW for you. Corbenik is not intended for the faint of heart and is intended for powerusers/devs. Still, you can use Luma3DS's chainloader to boot into Corbenik.

what abot Luma and CakesFW?

You can just load any CFW like any A9LH payload. You can also load them through external boot managers
https://github.com/hartmannaf/BootCtr9/releases
http://gbatemp.net/threads/release-ctrbootmanager-ctrbootmanager9.431647/
You can just rename the launcher and use a loader to boot into them.

so How do I multi boot (where do I place files and stuff like that?)

Just setup the CFWs like you normally would, then rename the launchers. So say you are going to Luma3DS and Corbenik. You setup your launcher (using Luma3DS as an example) and keeping the Luma3DS launcher named "arm9loaderhax.bin" and renaming the Corbenik launcher from "arm9loaderhax.bin" to let's say "Corbenik.bin"
Then you just place that bin file into the "/luma/Payloads". Once there you launch into the payload menu and you can launch Corbenik that way.

Chainloading, if you hold "Start" while booting the system, you can get into the chainloading menu.
