Its just a thought i had, but could it result being able to boot a "game cart" such as a new gateway card, and get arm11/9 kernel? (keep in mind this is theoretical, and just a guess on the possibility)
That's not how it works. The Gateway card isn't the exploit.Its just a thought i had, but could it result being able to boot a "game cart" such as a new gateway card, and get arm11/9 kernel? (keep in mind this is theoretical, and just a guess on the possibility)
Ah blame my lack of knowledge on how the card works.That's not how it works. The Gateway card isn't the exploit.
The cart basically relies on existing ARM 9 and ARM11 exploits to function. It cannot be an entrypoint in itself.Ah blame my lack of knowledge on how the card works.
The Gateway card is a dongle, not an actual flashcart
but what if gateway made som alternate firmware (close to sky3ds) so it could be used with r5?
if you have Gateway you dont need region 5but what if gateway made som alternate firmware (close to sky3ds) so it could be used with r5?
if you have Gateway you dont need region 5
Well, basically what I am saying, it isn't like you put in the card, load it and it runs GWMenu. The menu is loaded via an entrypoint, then it reads the card to see if you have it inserted, and loads the roms from its microSD. But Gateway could easily make it so that the card isn't needed. It's not like the card has a corrupted header that loads an exploit or anything.You lost me there a bit. What exactly do you mean when saying that? What's the difference between those two for you?

By dongle he means that all it does is allow you to run the gateway mode. Like an authentication. The card is not needed in any way for the exploit, but they use it as DRM to insure you bought it.You lost me there a bit. What exactly do you mean when saying that?

Makes no sense.
Yes, you put it a lot better than I.By dongle he means that all it does is allow you to run the gateway mode. Like an authentication. The card is not needed in any way for the exploit, but they use it as DRM to insure you bought it.
