2.6 was pushed yesterday with Mode3 as well for the Selector. ;)

And nope, @cell9 did all the work, I'm only porting his work to my fork that's all. :)

A downloader is possible (I mean everything is possible, isn't it ?), but I can't do it, I'm working on others projects that are already time consuming. :/


I'll add that, thanks for the link.

I have heard mcu stuffs have the risk of bricking the 3ds, use that service carefully.
 
It's dangerous in case you're trying to edit something (like led color etc), and I won't implement that.
I'm not sending any write command, only reading a value.

The worst that can happen is the percentage value to be not working / incorrect. ;)
Tried it on my New3DS with success.

The code:
Code:
Result MCU_GetBatteryLevel(u8* out)
{
u32* ipc = getThreadCommandBuffer();
ipc[0] = IPC_MakeHeader(0x5,0,0); // 0x50000
Result ret = svc_sendSyncRequest(mcuHandle);
if(ret < 0)
return ret;
*out = ipc[2];
return ipc[1];
}

And for those that want to disable it from the sources, remove that line.
 
Yeah, if i remember correctly, mcu was not much safe in the past... Yellow8 bricked his 3ds by trying to edit RGB LED colors...
 
What is «Reduce Blue Light» ?
A setting that's supposed to be better for your eyes. Blue Light is created from LEDs, that's why LED lights are almost purely white, and older bulbs have a warmer orange glow. Too much exposure to blue light can cause problems, so lowering the amount of blue in the game can help. 1-8 if I remember, with 1 being the lowest reduction, and 8 being "there is no blue".

I assume the blue light on the power indicator? But every time i use it just change the screen color to some Bronze video filter, almost like shining a lightbulb on gameboy. In VC games it has weird glitched colors flashing rapidly so i dunno. :P

It's like I explained to nooby before, it adjusts the blue levels in games. VC makes sense too. If you don't believe me, take a screen capture and in a photo editor, add blue hue to it, after enough is added it'll look "original" again. Blue light is bad, that's why "professional" gamers (like in League tournaments) wear special glasses with a filter over it (you described it as "bronze")
 
That's eerie.
How so? It's something that's only recently being circumvented, that's why programs like Flux are huge. Serious gamers are damaging their eyes from LED screens. That's why if you have glasses, your perscription often changes, your eyes are abused by Blue Light, it also messes with your sleep cycles, so that's why gamers like me stay up later and get up later (2pm bed, 12pm wake up is my average) and I'm not afraid to admit I'm all messed up from it.
 
The older 3ds would be a lot worse for your eyes than the new one then. That has a blue tint where my new one is slightly yellowish. If I play my new one it looks ok, then if I look at my old one white looks purple compared to the new one then if I look back at my new one after a minute it looks yellow then lol. Your eyes play tricks on you.

Your eyes adapt, but they can only go so far, look up "the effects of blue light" on google for more info. It's pretty serious stuff. And I don't know, maybe your screen's messing up because I can't really tell much difference between my 2DS and my N3DS screens (I think my N3DS is TN panel though so that could explain it)

I know what you mean. I always pay attention to colour tint and compare displays and mess with white balance settings and think it looks ok, then look back and it looks awful and I have to adjust it again. My S7 has a blue light filter option too. I'd imagine the blue light must strain your eyes.

Basically if you look at a colour tinted white for so long your eyes adjust and you think it looks white until you see another display.

Pretty much. I know programs like Flux are better, but I don't tinker with that. My eyes are trashed as I've been gaming since I was 6 on a Gameboy Color, had glasses at 14, and still game just as much. Flux or Blue Light Reduction would help, but I'm too bothered by the tan look so I don't do it and then hate myself later. The woes of a gamer :yay3ds:
