I am glad to see Luma3DS is catching up to Corbenik by adding a chainloading menu. Not bashing, actually quite happy to see this feature being added to other CFWs.

Hasn't it been a part of Luma for quite a while? O.o

Really? O.o Unless I dreamt about it, I'm almost sure I've used it quite a while ago. Well, my memory is terrible.

Also, to those who like to use the latest commits, you can boot automatically to hourglass(start_hourglass9.bin) by pressing L+Start and "bypass" the chainload menu

Anyone able to help? I cant boot any payloads (hourglass9, decrypt9, godmod9) though luma config boots. If I let it boot normally I get this: An error has occurred Failed to mount CTRNAND. Im on a new 3ds and 2.1E idk what to do :(

Rename the hourglass9.bin to start_hourglass9.bin

After you complete guide, get the latest version of Luma

A question: I updated the A9LH so that Luma works without SD, in case I upgrade my 3DS without SD will damage my 3DS ?

If you use CTRNAND Luma, FIRM protection does exist, and updating won't remove A9LH or brick.

so i'm tired of having to boot to settings on luma, then change autoboot to sysnand on, then save then load sysnand, then go back to settings, turn off autoboot sysnand and go to emunand.

i read that holding L on boot will autoboot sysnand. mine shows garbage on the top screen, then an error has occurred screen.

using luma 6.6, a9lh version. not sure what is the problem. using the settings, autoboot sysnand works fine.


using errdisp -

FATAL ERROR
PID : 0x00040030_00008F02
REV : 59076
AID : 0xFFFFFFFF_FFFFFFFF
ADR: 0x001028E4
RSL: 0xC8804478
Level -7
summary 4
module 17
desc 120

any ideas?

Sorry to bump but i think i got lost in the aurora haxxors...any thoughts on this?

not sure why a normal feature would error on my sysnand. it works fine when booting by changing the settings.

I can use the Gateway with Luma A9LH, if it is possible how can I create the emunand without losing the A9LH's working data, in the formatting process gives emunand9.

You use Gateway? I'm not even gonna start lol...

Copy your SD Card contents over to a PC, create an emuNAND and then drag your SD Card contents back over.

I still have that crap, Gateway's only good thing is Gateshark.
A doubt at the time of performing the formatting procedure gives emunand9 the 3DS will not stall for having deleted the A9LH files.

For me the only thing missing is Luma and a plugin to add cheat codes.
But it is an impossible dream.
