Hacking CTRTOOL.EXE issue in 11.1.0-34U or is it just this console??

[mvmiranda]

Hello all!

I'm trying to downgrade a 11.1.0-34U console and right when CTRTOOL.EXE tries to extract the "original firm.bin" I get an "unknown file" error.

Let me back up a little bit. I'm using REBOOT.MS Autofirm version with 11.1 N3DS.cia.

If I issue the command "ctrtool --contents=contents1 for any other "old" cia file (10.4 or 11.0) and later issue ctrtool --exefsdir=<dir> contents1 is extracts the firm.bin right to the <dir> folder, but for some reason when I try this for 11.1 I get the "unknown file" issue.

Will it be an issue with ctrtool or the 11.1.cia file?

Thanks!

is the cia decrypted?

is the cia decrypted?

Yeah! That was the issue...
Switched to a good one and it's OK now...

Although I still get a blue screen afrer a good autofirm pass.

Miranda, do you have used the nandcheck in the files before the first try?

Hey!
Nope I didn't... but I always dump the NAND 2 times, compare their MD5 and only proceed if they match.
Besides, reflashing the backup NAND brings the console back to life...
