Hacking Pasta CFW - A CFW that allows unsigned CIA to be installed on Old and New 3DS! (required ninjhax)

[EmceeKerser]

That gif shows what it might look like launching from the Pasta GUI, not the Home Menu.

Thats what I thought too.
Doesnt matter though, hyped for emunand. Although at this stage ive pretty much installed everything to my sysnand, so i dont see why emunand is that vital.

Latest fw version

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Any way to install it emulate nds games or maybe a rom loader

Actually yeah, good point. Do you know if there will be Nand linking, so anything i do to sysnand, it will apply to emunand?

The previous gif but emunand is possible but hard to code so pasta may not have it

We could copy the code from Palantine CFW and use a 4.X emunand. But maybe it's not so usefull since we can use sysnand instead.

people want an updatable Emunand and this is a little bit hard to do. It would be simpler if we had the sources of RXTools emunand.

Anyway, implementing a 4.X emunand is a good exercise and a good starting point for further developements.

Agreed, but let's first focus on finishing what we started **cough** spider **cough**

Yesterday I was really thinking of giving up.

This morning I found a bug in my code (I was loading into a register the first value of an array instead it's address, stupid thing that happens coding in asm).

Hope to have tonight a success running some code with spider ROP gadget on 4.x FW.

GZ, you know what made the difference, that bit of sleep you got in between, sometimes it's necessary to look at things from a fresh perspective.

Will it come in the form of a .cia patch? Or directly into Pasta?

It is but an application on the home menu that launch it isn't

it wasn't shown to be launched from the home menu in the image that was posted

Has anyone else looked more at implementing region free? Seeing as how nop90 is hard at work on the spider entry-point and is much deeper than I am, I am trying to find something to fiddle with. Once I get my copy of Cubic, I can start again.

u32 pad_state = HidWaitForInput();
    if (pad_state & BUTTON_B) DrawDebug(1,"Skipping...");
    else {
        u32 bytesWritten = 0;
        u32 currentWritten = 0;
        u32 result = 0;
        u32 currentSize = 0;
        void *dumpAddr = (void*)0x08000000;
        u32 fullSize = 0x00100000;
        u8 patch6[] = { 0x00, 0x7f, 0xff, 0xff }; //; Region Free: 0x7f ff ff ff
        u32 *dest1 = 0x08058804; ///[R4,#0x18]; //; Region Lockout: 0x2018
        memcpy(dest1, patch6, 4);
        const u32 chunkSize = 0x10000;

EDIT: Can't take credit for the additions. They were added by @leerz.

For some reason, some people think PastaCFW on 9.2 via MSET or Spider will be coming soon, however I don't think that's the case and anyone who does should re-evaluate the situation. It also doesn't help that the people who know PastaCFW on 9.2 *isn't* coming soon aren't really saying so.

Also, I think when installing games to SD it's better to use EmuNAND and EmuNAND isn't available with PastaCFW.

 

[motezazer]

We don't need anymore NAND dump of a not booted N3DS.
However, we now need people with hard-mod on their N3DS, never booted or not.
Will you join?

OF COURSE, EXPLOITABLE FIRMWARE IS REQUIRED.

PastaCFW started on 9.2, so... yeah.

 

[powersaver]

PastaCFW can't be started via MSET or Spider on 9.2 and perhaps PastaCFW started on 9.2, however, your response is completely non-sensical and adds nothing to the conversation. Please go home s***!

This!!! Yes!!!

Haha, the insults. You must feel big thinking you know something everyone else doesn't, when in fact, you're just a troll. Please, keep up the profane and negative language, I'm sure everyone appreciates it.

By the way, the MSET port. It's a bit further along than you think. I've personally been working on it, and I've got it somewhat running via terrible and dirty code. 9.2's ROP gadgets are a bit odd, so I'm trying to simplify it before dropping anything publicly.

Any eta of release? (Don't rush and take your time)

If someone want to help, here's the info needed :

Figuring out footer is required, it's 864-byte area attached the end of every Ambassador ROM storing various configurations like ROM and save sizes, memory configuration, savechip type (sram,flash,eeprom) and much more.

Great to hear, hopefully you're not a cocktease lol This forum has enough of those.
