Hacking Luma3DS - Noob-proof 3DS Custom Firmware

[quantumboy]

So a little status update: my consoles should be back by the end of the week

Do you think you will release a stable(non nightly) build of luma (perhaps with the 11.0 fixes) when you get them back?

Once she tests everything personally we can expect a release from Aurora soon.

Glad to hear, she seems like quite the dev

Those were my thoughts, but then DLC got removed from games that I never had purchased DLC on before.

But maybe you did open in-game DLC shop for those games before?
You can get ticket even without purchasing any DLC, usually you get it as soon as you try to view list of available content.

Got my 3DS back today, installed A9LH, and I can confirm that the latest nightly works good.

I'm having a bad week. rsrsr

My friend told me right now, he was playing batman and O3DS crash.
Reboot console and tried to open New Super mario Bross ( That was working verywell before ). But suddenly the game close and console says that will reboot.

Now he cant install .cia anymore (see picture)
DESC - BUS ERROR / TWL partion invalid (331)

What could happen?

O3DS XL
EMUNAND
LUMA3DS 5.4
MENUHAX.

I'll tell him to delete "nintendo 3ds" folder and setup all over again, but it can repeat again.

It's no Microsd card, it's original.

Awesome! Let us know of any advancements with DS abilities that the 3ds has please!

Sadly, I'm not an advanced programmer.

You do have lots of knowledge of it though! Maybe you could make a GBATemp or 3DSHacks forum including all that you know or dump a bunch of stuff in the TWL-Hacking forum or one of mine (they're in my signature). Anything that could help forward the scene!

Tried to read most of this forum before posting but I can't find a solution. I followed the guide here, https://github.com/AuroraWright/Luma3DS/wiki/Installation-and-Upgrade, and I added the nightly from here, http://astronautlevel2.github.io/Luma3DS/, to a brand new fat32 128gb sd card on my new 3dsxl. I loaded up and nothing happened. Everything is on the root directly. Sorry for super noob question but I figured this was the best place for it.

Hello there again, I need help with something: did someone manage to play european Tomodachi Life on an US 3DS through Luma? I tried and neither the cia version or the 3ds rom loaded through sky3ds worked at all. Everytime the game tries to load it crashes and the console has to reboot itself after the crash

Have you tried the region emulation option in Luma and create the file for the game in /luma/locales/ folder?

Nope, I haven't. Tried it and it worked. Thanks

 

[Venat]

I guess I should download the second file, not the dev one? Or maybe the nightly one?

Also, should I auto-update or not? Any downsides?

So i followed the Plaicent or whatever guide like a month or so ago, maybe longer, to get a9hl and everything up and running. at the time is gave you option for like aureinand and cakes or something... now i see all this luma stuff. im on like 10.7 cfw sysnand using that guide... is replacing with luma just as easy as what exactly? just wanting to switch to this as seems to be better maintained/updated

im on N3DS btw

Aureinand is luma3ds. It's just renamed. Go follow the Luma3ds installation guide on github
