Homebrew How do I update to B9S 1.3?

[mario-lucis-caelum]

The guide in 3ds.guide is outdated and seems to still be for 1.2 =/

Using SafeBS9Installer. Just because a new release came out doesn't mean the installer needs one too, you don't /have/ to update but it's essentially optional.

The Guide is up to date. Regardless of the wording in the guide, the upgrade method still remains the same.

No, you just need to run SafeBS9Installer. It doesn't matter what CFW you are using, so long as you can boot into the B9S payloads.
You could even name the SafeBS9Installer.firm to "boot.firm" and upgrade that way.

So I just replace the old firm files with the updated ones and then install them via SafeB9Sintaller? Sorry noob here lol

Aye, you just set it up the same way as the guide says, expect for the Luma3DS parts. Here let me just copy and edit the parts
Create a folder named boot9strap on the root of your SD card
Copy SafeB9SInstaller.firm from the SafeB9SInstaller .zip to the /luma/payloads/ folder on your SD card
Copy boot9strap.firm and boot9strap.firm.sha from the boot9strap .zip to the /boot9strap/ folder on your SD card
Reinsert your SD card into your device

Reboot holding (Start) during boot to launch the Luma3DS chainloader menu
Launch SafeB9SInstaller by pressing (A)
Wait for all safety checks to complete
When prompted, input the key combo given to install boot9strap
Once it has completed, press (A) to reboot your device
Power off your device

No you need 6.6......

No, please stop confusing the user

I used the safe installer, but no mention of which version it was installing nor a url from which it might retrieve. Is there a way to check which version I'm on?

It depends on the boot9strap.firm/.sha on your SD in the boot9strap directory. Latest one is available here https://github.com/SciresM/boot9strap/releases

Ok, sorry. I installed when 1.2 came out, so I hadn't updated it before.

Can I hitchhike and ask a question?
I Still need to update to 1.2 (I am still on 1.1). Can I update it directly to 1.3?

Yes, just but the 1.3 .firm and .sha in your boot9strap folder then run SafeB9SInstaller

Is there a need to update if you aren't using ntrboot?

Just like with all updates, if it ain't broke don't fix it.

 

[soprano1]

Ha ha, i guess that's true. Thanks for the reply.
