Homebrew Clarification Thread - What is going on?

[4ur0r]

OK, so at the beginning of the exploit, this "test value" is simply 0.
After some hacks and mechanics, some of the kernel pages are swapped out with pointers to a function.
This function sets "test value" to 0xDEADCAFE and is called by the kernel itself
The program then restores everything and prints the "test value".
If the kernel called the function, "test value" is now 0xDEADCAFE instead of 0x00000000!

This is important because the function was called via the kernel.
Please correct me if I am wrong.

Thanks for the techincal explanation!

9.9.0-25U N3DS menuhax 2.1
100% fail rate

I tell you...these haxes are very picky... they hated me at first but now we've come to an agreement. So they kinda work.... but not always

sounds like you did something else that you weren't supposed to. this program isn't supposed to make writes to the NAND or brick anything.

uh..can you explain the soon joke to me? i've really never understood it. please?

 

[DeathChaos]

So, I have tested the latest build at least at least 35 times now, and in 5 of them Menuhax failed to load, but it's working with a 100% rate for me, DEADCAFE every single time.

Spoiler

Why is this more stable than Menuhax

Edit: Forgot to mention, O3DS 9.9.0.26U

[GoodCookie88]

Its just the app not mch2

 

[CreAtor135]

No no I'm asking because my friend said he got an error message like that. No idea what he did or if it's related to this.

-I haven't even used this yet-

 

[Filo97]

when gateway says soon it is gonna take a lot of timw, so it becamed a joke.
