Hacking DSTT stuck on "Loading" when launched through TWLoader

[Simsor]

EDIT: Solved!
Download and install DSTT_Launcher from here and install it on your 3DS: https://gbatemp.net/threads/r4-stage2-twl-flashcart-launcher-and-perhaps-other-cards-soon™.416434/

Get YSMenu from here and extract it on your flashcart's SD card: https://gbatemp.net/threads/retrogamefan-updates-releases.267243/

Then run DSTT_Launcher and enjoy!


Hello!

I've purchased a DSTT card from nds-cards.com and I'm trying to get it to work on my New 3DS XL.

Alas, every time I try to launch it using TWLoader it gets stuck on a white screen with a happy-looking MicroSD card and the text "Loading...".

I've wiped TWLoader and reinstalled it (both CIAs, the app itself and the TWL-mode app), but no luck there. It's also on the latest version.

The card itself works fine on a friend's DS Lite, so it shouldn't be a problem with neither the card nor the MicroSD card.

I've also taken apart the card to check if it was a fake: the parts weren't glued together (that's a good point) and everything on the PCB looked pretty much the same as the reference picture (except the SD reader was a different type).

Did I miss a step? Anyone with the same problem managed to fix it?

Thanks!

That's the reason why I stop suggesting DSTT......
Have you try using YSmenu Kernel yet?

 

[Simsor]

I've tried both with and without YSMenu and the result is the same.
It's a shame if that's a known bug, because I didn't see anyone warning against this card before ordering it. Quite the contrary, people seemed to praise it as the best bang-for-your-buck flashcard.

After try some google, OK, TWLoader != NTR Launcher.
DSTT work with the latter for sure since I'm using it, if you don't mind using YSmenu Kernel instead of DSi like menu.

PS. People here always suggest R4i Gold 3DS RTS & R4i-SDHC rather than DSTT. Since DSTT get abandon even before the end of NDS era.

Alright, so I downloaded the latest YSMenu kernel from this site: http://www.r4wood.com/pages/TTi-DSTT-Kernel.html
Extracted it on the MicroSD card, yada yada

I tried running it with NTR Launcher (both versions) and I still run into the same problem

I forgot to ask, what is your current 3DS state? (Exploit + CFW)
And can your N3DS read normal legit DS cart?

 

[Simsor]

I'm on Luma + A9LH. I've never tried reading normal DS carts (it reads 3DS carts just fine though).
I'll try to get my hands on one to test it.

Got mine working with DSTT_Launcher from here: https://gbatemp.net/threads/r4-stage2-twl-flashcart-launcher-and-perhaps-other-cards-soon™.416434/
and YSMenu from here: https://gbatemp.net/threads/retrogamefan-updates-releases.267243/

Thank you so much @Lost_gamer ! It worked I don't think I can setup forwarders though, but still it's good to know those $10 didn't go to waste ^^

EDIT: Anyone know how I can mark the thread as solved?
