I saw that. Would this be a legible method to modding your 3DS?

Sounds awesome!
If only I could get it to work. Tried several times failing with the endless swirl crash mentioned in the instructions.

Maybe I'm partially illiterate today and unable to follow simple instructions.
Or maybe it is because my test device is chaotic beyond all description. I uninstalled B9S without doing any of the tests and without controlled removal of illegitimate content to just pretend I was one of the "I accidentally uninstalled CFW"-people – hoping for a quick re-installation despite that.

Unfortunately I ended up without CFW, with crashing DSiWare Data Management and other problems. The console became pretty much useless at this point…

…but ntrboot saved the day.

Random user: I want my o3ds modded without touching it.

Zoogie: hold my beer.

This is awesome, I was always a fan of the original mset exploit back in the day but an even bigger fan of Zoogie and their quality releases

Has anyone tested it on the first Old 3ds USA? (The little)

I want to jailbreak mine, but it's on version 11.17

This method would be my salvation.

I'm not sure about specific console models and regions that this has been tested on, but I've seen quite a few successes with people using this method and not too many instances of people getting stuck and being unable to fix it (yet). So you should be fine.

Current tutorial is here, though it'll be added to the main guide... soon-ish, probably?

 

[euromarii]

Thank you very much. So it's not completely safe, right? I noticed it's in beta. Should I wait to get out of beta? I bought this old 3ds a few days ago and it's unused for now.

 

[lilyuwuu]

I would say it's generally safe in that there's no risk to your actual console. There's a potential risk of data loss if things somehow go catastrophically wrong when it messes with the Nintendo 3DS folder, so you might want to make a backup of that folder if you have important save data or something.

 

[euromarii]

I understand. If there are no risks to the console, I'll try. My 3ds is completely formatted, no data. Thank you for your help.

Yes.

MSET9 should work for you now since zoogie updated it

It will work since it is in the official guide now.

Hi what does that exploit brings more than others? Is it more easy? More Stable? Does it allows a 3DS to launch 3DS games via homebrew?

Installing CFW on latest version without anything external (specific game or ntrboot cart)

 

[mrmagicm]

Does that bring something new to people who had already a CFW?
Please give advantages and drawbacks!

No
