Okay! test time:


1) Open decrypt9 after doing a TinyFormat or a full format in System Settings on the 2/3DS (MAKE A NAND BACKUP BEFORE)
2) Dump movable.sed and LocalFriendCodeSeed_B
3) with HxD compare movable.sed and LocalFriendCodeSeed_B to see if they match, if they don't just copy 0x8 to 0x7 110 from movable.sed to LocalFriendCodeSeed_B
4) Dump SecureInfo_A,
5) PUT THESE THREE FILES IN A SAFE PLACE FOR BACKUP REASONS. MAKE SURE THEY ARE CLEARLY LABELED!!!!
6) Hex edit SecureInfo_A and edit the serial number of your console (It will be in the 'Text' section, not the 'Hex' one)
7) Copy the modified SecureInfo_A, the edited LocalFriendCodeSeed_B, and a blank nnidsave.bin (it's just a dummy file, download it) onto the SD card of the banned 2/3DS
8) Inject the modified files using decrypt9
9) Restart your system
10) Attempt to access the online servers for a game


Just edited your guide marksteele

I tried this already, I did it correctly and I injected the edited LFCS_B but I'm still getting the Error: 002-0102
Can anyone just upload a legit LFCS_B file so I can inject it? Or any other way to unban? I just have one 3DS :(

GUYS I GOT BANNED !

I installed pokemon Moon trough Freeshop ago 20 Hours. Ago 3min i booted my 3Ds and i started Pokemon Moon WITHOUT TURNING OFF WI-FI.After the intro (i dont loaded my save game, i swear to all the gods from poseidon to medusa) i saw my Savegame, i was close to load it. I pressed the HOME Button on my 3Ds to see if Wi-Fi is on AND IT WAS ON.

Now: How can i see that i got banned ? i am sure i got banned :(((((.How long does it takes that my Console receives the bann from nintendo ? does nintendo banns DIRECTLY (which means NOW because it was ago 3min where i started the game without turning off Wi-Fi) or soon ?

If soon: Any way to change my Consoles key or whatever to avoid the INCOMING bann ? I have only 1x Nintendo 3Ds XL :(.

ps. I live in Germany, so i am sure i got banned :((((

Oh dear god it worked, it worked!

Acraeus, I could pay you a beer right now.

I just unbanned myself from 002 using nothing but my own 3DS! This is incredible. And I suck at writing tutorials of any kind, so please don't count on me when it comes to that!
But basically

1. Inject an old NAND backup from when you were still installing a9lh (I did one before)
2. Use Decrypt9 to extract movable.sed from it

3. Use Decrypt 9 to extract movable.sed and LocalFriendCodeSeed_B from your current NAND that is banned
4. Use HxD (hex editor) to compare your old movable.sed with your LocalFriendCodeSeed_B, see how offsets 00000000/08 through 00000110/07 is the SAME!
5. Open up your NEW movable.sed with HxD and copy offsets 00000000/08 through 00000110/07
6. Open up LocalFriendCodeSeed_B with HxD and CTRL+A and then paste what you just copied
7. Save, inject to sysnand

This is how I did it, don't blame me if something goes wrong because I'm even worse at giving instructions than following them.

EDIT: Ignore strikethrough text, that is no needed and was just a part of me finding out HOW to do it, you don't need to do that.


Thank you so much for writing this up! I basically did exactly what you said to do. To clarify I am not on an arm9loader cfw, instead I am still using a seperate sysnand and emunand because I set up my n3dsxl with custom firmware before arm9loader was a thing and I haven't felt the need to risk losing my stuff. For reference my sysnand doesn't have a nnid that I am aware of and is on 9.2, while I am using LumaCFW 6.6 with latest system firmware 11.2. What I did was backup sysnand_min.nand and emunand_min.nand just incase anything went array than I backed up my stuff to my pc and finally dumped my EMUNANDs movable.sed and localfriendcodeseed_B, copied offsets 00000000/08 through 00000110/07 from movable.sed and wrote it over the entirety of LocalFriendCodeSeed_B and saved as a different name in case I needed the orignal. Than I simply did as you said and injected only localfriendcodeseed_B with decrypt9wip and have been able to go back online with my new freeshop version of pokemon moon without a hitch, same with sm4sh bros as well. I have not checked for sure if I was banned from the eshop ever like some people were but I have been able to access my friends list and home menu themes so I think I just got banned from online which is now fixed thanks to you and this thread! thank you so much, I thought all hope was lost if it wasn't going to be a temp ban.

Being online with the 3DS by itself doesn't seem to grant a ban. If you didn't connect to any online features of the game you're probably safe

It was explicitly mentioned reviewers playing the review copies should not by any chance touch the online features of the game.
The customer support that i spoke to mention that those that got the cart thru legitimate channel won't be able to access online features... either the review cart was tempered by Nintendo to begin with or the latest firmware is tweaked to allow console that can run unsigned code to go online... if it is the second one meaning Nintendo is purposely trapping CFW users... most probably because they can't detect CFW thru normal means?

I dont know the game connected me to any Function. I started the game, then i saw the Intro, i skipped the intro, then i landed in the Menu where i was able to load my Profile (Save). There i didn't pressed ANYTHING, i was only in the Homemenu of the game with turned on Wi-Fi.

So: Is there any Online Function in the "Homemenu" of the game ? please calm me down my hands, my whole body, is shaking..... i am under shock...

Edit:

What do you mean ? i installed it ago 20 hours and i just played like 20 minutes ago 20 hours. Then i goed sleep until now, and now i started the game and i forgot turning off Wi-Fi (And ago 20 Hours i turned Wi-Fi off after i closed Freeshop...and after the 20min playtime,i closed the game, turned on Wi-Fi and turned off my 3Ds and goed to bed and now i forgot turn off Wi-Fi again)

In the main menu the only option with online capabilities is the Mystery Gift.
In the game itself I believe it's only the Festival Plaza. If you stay away from both you're fine.

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too

    yes looks like an faulty sd
