Hacking Custom path not working 3ds

[Ralph0191]

System version is 11.3 And My luma is in latest version i did the custom path i put a path.txt in luma folder sd card and copy paste the arm9loaderhax.bin and rename it to boot.bin and i open the txt file and put /luma/boot.bin i tried to look at other post like this but i dont know why its not working for me

The custom path is used for bootloaders, not for setting custom boot paths for A9LH.
So if you wanted to use something like BootCTR9, you would use the custom boot path for that program for the Luma3DS payloads to work properly.

How are you launching it? Because the reboot patches should be working if you are launching with the right path and bootloader setup.
But if you are using Luma3DS as your main CFW, you really should just leave it as boot your main CFW and chainloader.

How will you know if i am in the right path and bootloader setup? And how to know what ia your main cfw and chainloader?

I need more context here. What bootloader are you trying to use and honestly what are you trying to use it for? Luma3DS has a chainloader that can load your A9LH payloads, even other CFWs.

i think all i have is arm9 and luma this is the contents of my sd card. sorry i am just new to this things just bought this last month.

Right, so let's clean some stuff up and get you on the right place

All those underlined files you can delete. From there, you just need to place the "arm9loaderhax.bin" from Luma3DS into the root of your SD card. You don't need to set any custom paths if you aren't loading Luma3DS from a bootloader. And really if you are new, I just suggest using the Luma3DS chainloader itself. Just play the A9LH payloads you want into the

/luma/Payloads

From there, just boot the system holding "Start" and it will bring up your payload menu to launch your payloads.

then? the 3.jpg is just a copy from google i have an old3ds regular

You actually don't have to rename the payloads anymore, they just need to update their wiki. Just felt like throwing that out there for future reference.
From there, just turn on the settings you think you need the most. So I suggest
"Autoboot to sysNAND"
"Show NAND or user string in System Settings"
"Patch SVC"
You should also check out her Wiki, which explains all of these features

Did you delete the path file you created before? If not, delete that.

 

[Ralph0191]

after that?

 

[The Catboy]

Give it a test to see if it works.

 

[Ralph0191]

still black screen.

 

[The Catboy]

Hmm~ this is a pickle. So you do have the "arm9loaderhax.bin" from luma3DS in the root of the SD card?
Also I would suggest bringing all of this information over to the official Luma3DS thread.

I am smart, but I am also troubleshooting from memory here, so the official thread would be a great start for more help!
