Guys, can I do this without a hardmod?

Edit: FAIL lol

The instructions have been updated and fixed. Mods, if the way I have directed users to the firmware files is still not allowed tell me and I'll remove the link.

If reinand is considered a precedent then you're okay.

I look forward to trying this later just for the fun of it (I'll update from 9.2 just for the test). Hopefully the components of the process that don't have a Linux version that I know of work under Wine though since I don't have Windows.

That was exactly my thinking

I'm in the us and do hardmods as well.

So glad I am A. Not a noob and B. Downgraded successfully on first try before 10.4 came out and C. Currently 9.2 sysNAND and 10.5 RXtools emuNAND. May the noobs be dealt with so you guys can work on this frankly exciting project! Good luck!

I was a 4.5 user before the downgrade

Thanks, all i need is a noob guide step by step with pictures to how to harmode n3ds xl.

NICE!!! LOL

 

[fmhugo]

maybe a solution for unbrick 3ds too ?

Lets start with your soldering experience. ...

Did you RGH your own 360?

Nope

 

[vb_encryption_vb]

Basic experience probably wont do it. The pads imo are shitty and pretty thin. Ive seen numerous people burn them out / lift them. Or completely rip the traces out.

Seems the autofirm back just throws an error code saying it can't find the specified files. All are there and named accordingly.


Sorted out, have to download various versions of msvcr120d.dll till I got one that worked and just left it in the same folder I had autofirm in.

why can't people just test this with am emunand first?

CFWs don't use the NATIVE_FIRM stored in the emuNAND itself.

Got a hardmod.I'm trying this
-- I'm just wondering how this can patch an encrypted nand.bin

I suppose it will read the relevant NAND data, use it to encrypt the raw firmware file and inject it
