No. Mine works just fine, after reading this thread I tested it on a game and worked just fine. I'd suggest reinstalling it.
I deleted and reinstalled it, restarted 3DS but no joy. I was wondering if something is messed up server side, then I saw this thread. Was hoping to grab 2.1.2 to see if it makes any difference, but looks like previous version would be hard to find.

Maybe back up your freeshop directory on your SD, delete it, then re-add the titlekeys and re-download the cache?
 
Thanks, I found 2.1.2 in my older 3DS backup but didn't solve the issue. Deleted freeshop folder and let the app recreate but nope. Incidentally, I tried downloading stuff from legit eShop, stuff that I had previously bought, and it keeps throwing error "007-2920" so I guess that's what causing the crash in freeshop.

Edit: Switched to my phone's hotspot and now everything works lol. This is weird, both connections are identical except for IP change (no DNS blocking or anything)

Could be something your router is blocking, possibly. Maybe a modified hosts file on your computer. I'm not really sure because neither of those things cause a problem for me. I just installed freeShop 2.1.3 and it still works fine for me (though the cache it downloaded was r33 and I saw it mentioned that r34 was meant to be the latest).

You're right, just remembered I had blocked access to Nintendo servers in the router itself. This is from WiiU side of things btw. Unblocked it and now it works like before.

Sucks that it got pulled though, hope we get something else as a replacement.

Don't worry, it's pretty much guaranteed we'll get a replacement of some kind, and there are always things like CIAngel in the meantime, though I'm sure the title keys and cache will continue being updated, so if you already have freeShop installed, I don't think there's anything to worry about for now.
 
Well I already have freeshop last update was 2.0 i belive a couple weeks back, and you can get it from the -snip- site if you don't have it... even if all of it gets taken down on websites someone can always use decrypt9 to export the CIA of freeshop.cia to their sd card and keep re-uping it to the internet..
Hopefully the nintendy doesn't pursue the takedowns further i can understand their a little ticked off of having their bootrom dumped and exploited from the recent announcement of the 33c3.
You can't mention that site here. It's against the rules. Saying just 'iso site' is enough. Please edit your post as you're breaking gbatemp's rules.

I kinda lol'd when it read "the -snip- site". Honestly though, I get we're not supposed to talk about "that iso site", but who at this point does not know the actual name of it, what's the point in obscuring it at that point?

If there is ever a link to copyright/pirated material on GBAtemp, it could get shut down.
 
True, by that is a link, not merely the name, is that already too much?

I'm not sure - maybe the mods want to stop people before they get to the line, or maybe Nintendo search Google to see who is mentioning the name of the site?

I think it's just playing it safe, as you said even "that site that shall not be named" would generally be enough for everyone to know what you mean.
You guys are really making it sound like it's the root of all evil, I love it

I hope my swift moves with the GitHub support that deleted my freeShop fork(thanks for that) will be enough to escape the Nintendo Ninjas(my fork was in the DMCA)

I think if you clone the repo, change name in something like "ThisIsNotFr€€Shop" nintendo won't find it :3
