Hacking Having trouble with CFW

[ZekPower01]

I'm having issues with my 11.6 CFW o3ds. Many things are starting to break down and idk why. FBI won't update on it's own and give some errors, some game updates just crash the game, Luma3ds gives me some errors when i try to update saying "could not get status code." PLUS, My sd card shows up on my pc but it won't read it. It works fine on my 3ds. The only way for me to transfer data now is through FTP. WHICH IS EXTREEEEMELY SLOW. Please help, there are other numerous issues im probably forgetting, but if somebody can give me a hand and help me it will be highly appreciated, thank you!

But it was working fine last December... And I encountered my first issues during the Middle/End of January...(?)

GitHub is removing support for TLSv1/1.1,

Homebrews affected include:

• Luma3DS Updater
• Certain MultiUpdater configs
• All others that depend on GitHub to download things

this happened this month!
thus any homebrew that relied on github to download as ones you mentioned will not update or download from GITHUB

well, again, the problem i stated exists,

your one, may be you have a faulty SD card as your computer cannot read it

 

[ZekPower01]

What would be a fix for making cfw work again, I'm sorry but I'm kind of having trouble understanding the source of the problem... Like.. I know TLS means Transport Layer Security... but how does that affect stuff that's already been downloaded and stuff that will be downloaded... does this mean everybody who works in developing stuff for CFW might as well get out of github and abandon it completely?

have you actually tried a different SD card in your system, it sounds like your SD card is faulty/fake

I will right now.... But I'n starting to think that the SD card might have been somehow corrupted... Idk how, it's always been working fine... if it really was corrupted, then my 3ds shouldn't even boot up with cfw...

you can try copy everything off via FTP, i know it will take ages,
use GodMode9 to reformat it,
place it in your computer, then run h2testw on it

Doesn't h2testw only read USB drives?

no, you use it to test SD cards also

 

[ZekPower01]

Okay, I'll try it once the FTP finishes to copy the files... A few days from now if my connection permits. It's 28gb worth of cfw being transferred over ftp with a 1MB/s connection... ._.

ouch

So you're saying to copy everything on my SD to my computer through FTP and then format the SD card, so that it will hopefully work.

correct, since you'll have everything off it, then you can format it with GodMode9 to recreate the partition table etc

Ahhh, I see. Thank you

Usually when this kind of things happen, the SD card is usually at fault, how long have you had it and where did you get it?

I would just put the sd card on a card reader and copy it to my pc. then reformat using http://www.ridgecrop.demon.co.uk/guiformat.exe this tool
the copy everything back and it should work. seriously 20+ gigs over ftp is never gonna finish specially since it will probably time out everytime before it finishes.

It's a 32gb Sandisk, I got it less than 6 months ago, at either Walmart or Best Buy, can't remember...
