Homebrew How to use HBL on 11.3 (A9LH+Luma)

[Shikkichu]

Guys please.. just download the v1.3 HBL cia and get the 11.3 payload.
If you continue to have issues, please install latest hourly build for Luma

Only follow the old method if you're having troubles with the new payload and launcher.

11.3 payload: Here
v1.3 HBL CIA: Here

*hax 2.9 alpha payloads for old and new 3DS firmware version 11.3 are now available, get them at https://t.co/oWkM5VjftQ

Spoiler: OLD METHOD

This keeps getting asked, so here's a little guide so those on CFW don't have to wait for updated payloads.
This can ALL be done via your 3DS, no computer required.

> install Luma Updater cia

Spoiler: How to install Luma Updater from FBI

Open FBI, go into TitlesDB, download "Luma3DS Updater"

> Open the newly installed cia and click "Install latest hourly build"
> Go into FBI
> Navigate to SD>hblauncherloader
> Click on "OLD-11-2-0-35-TWN.bin" (It may say something different for you)
> Rename to something like this "OLD-11-3-0-36-TWN.bin" (Of course leave it as your region/3ds model)
> DONE!

Freezing?
If it goes through all the normal checks but hangs, this isn't your fault, it just takes a few tries sometimes.

This works great. Doesn't work on Luma 6.6 but Latest Hourly works like a champ. Thanks for this.

Hopefully people won't have to constantly ask now xD

I was just gonna wait but figured I'd test this out and it works. So it's a nice little work around until the payloads get released.

didnt work for me sadly :/

This is usually how is done with people who already have CFW. But people who do not may be waiting a long time for it.

Did you rename it "NEW-11-3-0-36-USA.BIN"

 

[MarioMasta64]

Did you rename it "NEW-11-3-0-36-USA.BIN"

yes

i think i might know why. i believe im 1 version behind as im on v6.6-88db5940 when the latest it v6.6-700d5727 ill update my luma tomorrow when i have wifi

 

[kane159]

hey! i have the twn version of 3ds too, where can i dl OLD-11-2-0-35-TWN.bin to launch HBL?

 

[Shikkichu]

TWN was just an idea of how to put, I own a USA and J only :c but it works on both systems as well as my boyfriends and sisters 3DS now.

All else
Just make sure you're on the LATEST hourly build from within 20 hours ago, and then rename the payload, literally just remame the payload to match the 11.3 update as if it was a payload
Maybe it only works on my o3ds because my cfw by default is a dev console, idk, im busy with other stuff to pay attention
But I can confirm it works on n3ds with Luma just fine

Smea said within the week, also by the time 6.7 Luma comes out we womt need the 11.3 payload regardless, so why wait?

Not trying to be rude, I'm just genuinely curious, though if you feel like waiting then you dont need hbl that bad but I want to know why a cfw iser in general would want unless you program, and in that cae they'd get it done now to do so xmx

 

[keyra]

that's why i said thx

 

[Aletron9000]

I tried this (Luma3DS A9LH sys 11.3) and it worked! Thanks!

 

[CrazyBlergh]

Thank you for this but is there any point to update to 11.3?

 

[Gh0sti]

what is HBL?

 

[Aletron9000]

For CFW users,

Not much. Not sure if this update affects the eshop. But you would be on the newest.

what is HBL?
