Hacking FAQ about 3ds system update 11.3

[Sketchy1]

So what is actually broken with Gateway? Just the game select menu again?

Everything. The entire cfw itself.
Whether its a9lh or emunand

 

[zaqqaz00]

just patches for antipiracy, nothing worthwhile.
other then they stopped hardmods and our dsidowngrades. R.I.P @vb_encryption_vb for nintendo stripping him of a good source of income

Not really has most consoles are less than 11.3. Let's say ballpark figure 99.9% so Nintendo has affected his income by maybe .1 %
Actually it is more urgent than ever to have some type of <11.3 nand backup and a hard mod back up makes your system bulletproof.

I think he's referring to the fact that a lot of noobs don't know any better and update when they get a new console to get online etc... That and the fact that a lot of places are sold out of DS consoles through Xmas, so maybe 2nd/3rd quarter of 2017 the majority of brand new consoles will be on 11.3.

Some want hardmod just for the fact of safety. Than there is all brick fixes I've done since the release of safehax, than there is the users that just don't want to deal with installing it and send it to me and pay me to do it.

Also, homebrew is now fixed as of commit 700d5727 though you do have to rename the 11.2 otherapp payload to NEW-11-3-0-36-USA.bin/OLD-11-3-0-36-USA.bin yourself rather than rely on the automatic downloader/updater.

wait explain this further, just rename the file and homebrew will launch?

Just change the numbers to the firmware, update to latest hourly build of luma, and hbl works on 11.3

hey so no way to get homebrew without luma?

 

[naddel81]

What does it mean for me that menuhax was patched? When I update my emunand to 11.3 nothing will change for me, because ai keep using menuhax on 9.2 sysnand to autoboot into emunand, right?

 

[raslaves]

is there a way to access JKSaveManager without homebrew?

Exactly.

 

[IDris]

What CFW do you use?

 

[IDris]

What CFW do you use?

Luma, but im not on a9lh

 

[nl255]

hey so no way to get homebrew without luma?

Not at the moment. Smea is working on it though.

is there a way to access JKSaveManager without homebrew?

There is a cia version of JKSM but that requires Luma (or other CFW) to run so if you don't have CFW you can't use JKSM at the moment.

 

[Arubaro]

@IDris I assume you have sysnand 9.2 + emunand 11.3 and using menuhax +coldboot?

If you boot to emunand via menuhax then don't worry your fine, because menuhax was patched in 11.3, but your sysnand is still 9.x so your unnafected unless you accidently update your sysnand.

 

[IDris]

@Arubaro yes, correct assumption. I can use my emunand backup in case, but would like to keep save games friends etc..

 

[Sketchy1]

Actually no matter if its luma or not, you can't use anything that ends with .3dsx.

You can use CIA versions of them though.

An emunand backup backs up friends and nand related things, backup your SD card too and everything is safe.
