Hacking Luma3DS - Noob-proof 3DS Custom Firmware

[astronautlevel]

Yeah, I knew I had seen TuxSH's name somewhere else before, then it hit me when I was looking through the old rxTools Github commits. Explains a lot (no offense, Aurora). Well, if Duke's working on it, I definitely won't count it out yet. Does it have a page?

Here's the gbatemp thread: http://gbatemp.net/threads/pre-release-wip-yet-another-rxtools.426092/
Here's the github: https://github.com/dukesrg/rxTools

Most of the commits won't work because they're in the middle of refactoring, which is why I don't setup a page for it.

@astronautlevel quick question about your star updater, can it change the bin path if I'm using CTRBM9 and my Luma.bin is in Luma/Luma.bin

Funny, this didn't tag me

Yes, it can. Create a file named "update.cfg" in the /luma/ folder and put in it "/Luma/Luma.bin" without the quotes. It will do the path patching for you.

Are you sure about the first dash? since usually I have to edit the path to Luma/Luma.bin . The first / fucks it up. Thanks

Yeah, my own implementation of the path patcher that does require the first dash.

I didn't get offended at all, but I didn't understand XD what did you mean with "explains a lot"?

Im using fbi installer 2.2.1 last version.
New nintendo 3ds xl
A9hl
Luma3ds 5.4

Install multi .cia its freeze after a time.
Cant install more than 3 .cia without frozen.

I can do it without problem with title manager. But i think fbi faster...

You probably have a low capacity SD or your SD might be fake

I have a nearly completely unmodified New 3DS. The only thing I have ran on it was Iron and Browser Hax.

I have just tried to install Luma3DS by copying the 3ds, luma and Luma3DS.dat files into the root of my micro SD. I launched Browser Hax and scrolled down to Luma3DS, tried to launch it, my screen flashed red then went black. Beyond that, nothing else has happened and I am confused on what I have done wrong.

Currently I am running currently running OFW 10.5.0-30U

CFW via Homebrew Launcher only works with 9.0-9.2. You'll need to downgrade.

How would I go about downgrading?

Do you install the dsiware in the sysnand and the emunand?

 

[biku]

Do you install the dsiware in the sysnand and the emunand?

Yes, on both (I have unlinked nands). And they work fine whit Reinand, but not with Luma3DS

No its not.
Its original.
Its 64Gb Sandisk Ultra SDXC
Can write to it with 16mb and read at 45mb using my lg reader notebook.

Its 100% original. Alredy install upto 40gb gaming working perfectly with tittle manager.

Its no MicroSd fault. Alredy tried with my old 32gb sdhc class10.

Another possible explain?

My microsd card was brought not by internet. Its got from a shop with fiscal coupon.

Try to select the "Show gba boot screen" on the luma config menu. I heard that it causes problems if the option is off.

The FBI interface just likes to hang randomly when installing multiple cia files, it's still installing in the background. Use another program like Dev Menu 11.4.
