Hacking Luma3DS - Noob-proof 3DS Custom Firmware

[ricosuave0922]

Love the new release. I used uncart this morning to dump a rom and it totally was awkward trying to hold L+R+B+power. the new L+payload combo is so much nicer!

I reuploaded because I forgot you can also press the combo during a MCU reboot, and it wouldn't be blocked then Now I do the block earlier, lol.

• Blocked Safe Mode (L+R+Up+A) access on A9LH, as using it would brick the console (N3DS) or remove A9LH due to the reboot to SAFE_MODE FIRM.

So we can't access it anymore? How would we get rid of update nags then? Not everyone is using updated sysnand..

If your not using updated sysnand then how could you have an update nag on sysnand? You literally only boot in and out of emunand

EDIT: Forget it, update supressor cannot remove updates nags

If you set the Tubehax DNS you can't get update nags. And there's also a program d0k3 made which removes the nag (you can find it here on GBAtemp).
(I have no way of telling if SAFE MODE is used for good or not, and if you accidentally proceed to update with it, it's a brick.)

I haven't used the latest few versions, but what do you mean by that? I use "L to boot into 9.2 sysnand, and that does get update nags

Have you considered moving over to a 100% sysnand and ditching emunand ?

so @d0k3 has a way to disable or get rid of update nags?

Not something I'm willing to do. In fact, I'll probably never do that. Roms are still cleaner than CIA installation (no ticket is written to ticket.db) and browser exploit is still something I heavily use.

Besides, while A9LH is more or less safe, I'd rather have the security of the emunand to mess around with

Yeah, there's a tool he made for that.
And as I said, Tubehax DNS gets rid of them too.

I don't want to hinder the connection itself (though I have that set on my Wii U) rather, just a simple way to get rid of nags if I accidentally get them. The recovery menu was a simple way to do that.

What program by @d0k3 are you referring to?

when I hold L during the boot it loads menuhax launcher, and same happens when I hold R down.
How can I access my sysnand? Do I need to select one of those three options at the start?

I did the whole setup following this tutorial and as far as I know it is working. N3ds boots fast and all my cia games work.

edit: I also still have ctrboot manager (if thats important) from old setup with rxtools

It doesn't hinder the connection, it just blocks access to Nintendo's update servers... I have it set on my 9.2 emuNAND

Not to mention being a more tedious process compared to simply accessing recovery, but the posts specifically says to not use that on sysnand..

If I remember correctly, that was for those new 3ds getting the nag before the 9.6 keys were released

Not because sysNAND is special, but because if the tool derped, pre-A9LH you had a brick doing it on sysNAND.

I get that. I'm talking about hindering the connection between the update servers and the 3ds.

You said you don't want to get background updates, but at the same time you don't want to block them from downloading?
