We still haven't gotten more system stability though

I agree, it can never be quite enough

What could we do with the bootroms besides an even faster boot then a9lh? I'm curious...

Full system control forever . If the bootroms are cracked, a hardware revision would be required to actually "patch" all 3ds'(s?).

Not a whole lot, in all honesty. Also, it may not nessacerily be faster, as it would still have to (more likely than not) hit against the SD card at boot time and patch stuff.

well including rom hacking games like pokemon xand y and oras we can't do map editing yet

Discluding games. If we added games, this list would be a mile long

Wifi and Internet access (and HBL) through ARM9.

Well yes,in this case you're actually right.

That would be super cool lol

Cracking the bootrom would allow for a permanent arm9 and arm9 exploit, and it is not fixable via a software update.

Theoretically possible if someone writes drivers for the wifi..

 

[hacksn5s4]

idk if this is possble or not but no ones bothered to do it sending inputs to the 3ds from a computer so you can use a gamecube controller with out opening the 3ds or keep making it hit a certain button for you to grind or what ever

Full customization of the firmware/home menu.

This is already possible. No-one has been bothered to do it yet

 

[hacksn5s4]

Someone did this on Twitter and posted saying it was an accomplished expirement. Not sure if I remember who though

is it using a machine thing to press the buttons though i mean like sendign inputs over wifi to the 3ds

The wifi and Internet has been accomplished from @d0k3's payload tester. I think the creator of BootCtr9 is working on .3dsx support from Arm9 access but I haven't heard if that's progressing

He's never written a WiFi driver for A9LH.
His A9NC project is just an ARM11 payload that receives the a9lh payload over WiFi, writes to SD and hopes you were smart enough to set up a bootloader that boots the written payload. Still pretty damn useful if you use a n3DS and you have to eject and reinsert the SD all the time.

And .3dsx support from ARM9 isn't possible, you'd have to rewrite ctrulib without an underlying OS, it'd be far easier (and Stabler(tm)) to make the FIRM autoboot the HBL CIA

6. (Someone has already done this through SaltySD and posted this on Twitter but I can't seem to remember the dev's name) GameCube controller input support without hardmod

Oh and the GC controller was just a hid module mod; shinyquagsire modded it to read from a different location rather than the HID register.

EDIT: He even made a writeup of the whole thing http://douevenknow.us/post/139673444953/redirecting-3ds-input-over-wifi
