Of course, it is absolutely detectable, because there is no real way to redirect all accesses to the SD card. The only way is to patch the NATIVE_FIRM to use the SD card instead. If N releases a new firmware with a detection, maybe it fuck up your image (and possible your real NAND too) or won't boot, until the detection is patched.
I still think it's sad that the whole chip decapping thing was a scam. Safe to say there will be no hacks for the 3ds except for 4.0-5.
I honestly wouldn't have guessed until they said "Oh yeah, we need another $300, so just kidding. Also, we're not going to update the site anymore. Oh well."I assumed it was a scam the whole time, but then again... if I assume everything is a scam I was bound to be right eventually.

It's still too bad, though. Tens of hardworking individuals lost their money because of these people.Yes, but you're thinking logically, unlike me.

No, there is absolutely no way to modify the bootrom. It's not even read only. You only can patch the NATIVE_FIRM. That's how Gateways and smeas "NAND redirection" works.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_memory
They would have to modify where the bootloader/bootrom loads the firmware from, not the firmware itself. The firmware doesn't "use the SD card instead", it's simply located there. When the firmware is loaded and running, it simply references memory addresses which are the same regardless of where it's located physically.
Also, they can't patch the firmware even if they wanted to; it's encrypted. If we could break the firmware encryption we'd have cfw.

Of course, it is encrypted, but if you have code execution, you simply can decrypt it. And the signature doesn't matter, if you load it at runtime. If you flash it to your real NAND, then you have a brick, yes.

Tell me why it hasn't been decapped, then.it was no scam, the goal got updated to 2.5k because they want to make sure they have some extra to play with the system after the decap
Tell me why it hasn't been decapped, then.
Without a doubt, it's sad. Sometimes events like these are just what people need to realize that there are bad people in the world.He's trying to justify his donation... kinda sad tho.
Good thing I didn't donate. I never once thought it will go through anyway.I still think it's sad that the whole chip decapping thing was a scam. Safe to say there will be no hacks for the 3ds except for 4.0-5.
