I have a problem: So I finished installing a9lh and I have luma3ds working on the sysnand, basically im on section VI of this guide https://github.com/Plailect/Guide/wiki/Part-5-(arm9loaderhax) and the problem is that I need to make one final backup of my hacked sysnand BUT whenever I try to open OTPHelper it takes me directly to the CTR boot manager and therefore I am unable to make a backup, whats going wrong and can I fix this?

Edit: I remember deleting some stuff off my SD card to clean up some stuff so I'm guessing there's files required to be on the SD root but I dont know which ones I need/are missing

TLDR: OTPHelper doesnt open anymore and instead relaunches CRT Boot Manager

No so use NTR CFW

Uninstall menuhax.

[Ironknight]

Who said u needed it?

You need it for full pasta cfw, but I just needed mini pasta. I thought they were the same for a moment.

I have a o3ds on 9.2 sysnand that was running rxtool and I installed Luma and I had no need to create EMUNAND as Rxtools already had one and luma continues to use that same one... my question is can I delete all the rxtools stuff like Rxtools.dat and the folder,etc would it affect my emunand in anyway since it was created by Rxtools and not luma

You can go ahead and delete it no probs

I can't play monster hunter 3 ultimate.
Issue description: I have installed mh3u and when I open the game it gives me a black screem that says "An error has ocurried please turn of the power and try again"

PD: Have emunand in the latest version and using luma3ds 5.5 cfw, using coldboot.
Installed the game from a .cia using FBI 2.2.6.
Using an old 3ds usa region and the unique id of the game is 00040000000AE400

I posted before in this thread for the same issue but it was with pokemon ruby omega and I fixed but mh3u still giving me that error

Sorry for my english by the way.

I'm using a9lh Luma3ds v5.5 with autoboot fw 11 emunand (my sysnand is still 9.2). Today I want to go to my fw9.2 sysnand to test something. When I hold L when my console boot up, it just stays at black screen (with no hold button it boots fine). I rarely touch my sysnand and I know it is not bricked yet. Is that Luma3ds's problem?

Do you use bootanim9? Or any boot loader other than the one built into luma? Tell us your exact set up and what error you get exactly or just black screen?

I'm not sure what to suggest then. DSiware and Smash are working, and your AGB_FIRM isn't patched, in theory it ought to be working. What happens exactly when you try to run your GBA games? you've tried more than one game I take it?

I use Menuhax w/o any boot loader. I used to use CTRBootManager, but I stop using it after learning that boot loaders cause problems with Luma3DS. When I load a GBA game, it just gives me a black screen. I have them installed on sysNAND and emuNAND.

boot loaders only cause issues on arm9loaderhax. you can keep using CTRBootManager just fine.

have you by chance patched AGB_FIRM on sysnand as well?

Oh, maybe. I'll check when I get home.

Sorry about my almost-absence, basically personal stuff happened (not necessarily negative ones! ).
If anyone is interested, yesterday I pushed an update to my a9lh fork to merge screen init and non screen init stage2s into one, and to include a stripped down Luma for when there's no payload or no SD inserted (has just two patches, signatures and firm writes). https://github.com/AuroraWright/arm9loaderhax

Working great! How come Gateway wont work with your a9lh? Even if using arm9loaderhax_si.bin. What have they done wrong? (and why does it work with delebiles version?). I use Luma all the time but sometimes I need Gateway, and that locks me down to use delebiles a9lh..

Edit: Nice to see you again!

 

[VioletX]

Not sure if i should post it here but ah well.
Having a small issue.
Sometimes when i boot my 2DS, rather than booting Lesshax/Luma, it boots straight into sysnand.
Have to remove the sd card and insert it again AND then reboot it to get back into luma.

Any idea what could be the issue here?

I guess they are not the new pre-compiled one from the 19th?
