Hacking important info with fake ds injection files

[ssrpgvita]

games i seen that were bricking were pokemon black white,and and castlevania one.
imho i think it got something do with it maybe corrupting twl firm,But all this does is make it unoperable i thought.
im curious myself,Is it possible to brick sysnand with corrupted twl firm?.If so that might be cause bricks.

it installs to nand? even if fbi directs it to sd?

No, TWL is not crucial for the system. Are those real DS apps or normal .cias? Would you mind trying to install one of those to the SD card?

FBI gives error when trying to install to sd

so it is "propper" dsiware, which has to be installed to nand? does it overwrite anything?

Like I said I haven't got enough storage on my Sysnand to get it installed

Really pointless to me to do that because I can't even install it

I downloaded the file which was posted on the Chaos site, gonna try decrypting and extracting the CIA, will post back the results.

Edit: Just a bunch of errors, it doesn't seem to be a real CIA file at all. First Decrypt9 told me the CIA is not encrypted, then Asia81's PackHack just kept on spewing out errors when I tried extracting the CIA. I guess that one was harmless, and was only made for trolling purposes.

I think its already decrypted because it took me a second to decrypt

Try opening it as a .nds file, or maybe even a .png or .txt.

thats already been tested by someone on the Chaos site

I already deleted the file, but someone on that Chaos site tried opening it as a .nds file and it didn't work. Dunno about .png or .txt.

Decrypted it. The B/W .cia seems to contain only the .nds rom, which has the regularheader, and then stuff that's not supposed to be there

very odd. I guess there's a lot of questions we need to ask the guy who posted it.

Fun fact[2]: the file seems intact https://scr.hu/4mzYD4, I tried putting it in a tool of mine and all the music form Pokemon B2/W2 is there, you can see it's edited due to the secure area being bad. I think I saw some creepy ascii art with HxD, but it might just be me being tired

After some more checking, I can confirm. This is the infamous taihen.nds
nevermind, I need to sleep

OH LOOOOL

What I wanted to say is:
the extracted nds rom is identical the the BW DSi enhanced rom.

My brain is dying, caffeine effect has worn out, lolrip

Chill down people, this thing has been under checking for the last 30 minutes, Most likely a hoax. I'm going to sleep.
