Hacking Plailect guide uptill 'rednand'

[pbanj]

When I read the first line I had a mini heart failure why you do this . Where can I find this file 'arm9loaderhax.bin' it's not on luma folder on my sd card..

https://github.com/AuroraWright/Luma3DS/releases/download/v5.4/Luma3DSv5.4.7z

If you still have the zip you downloaded from the guide its in that


I did it because I had to have a little fun.

So mean. lol

Anyways, it also sounded to me like he just didn't put the SD Card back in. Otherwise, if he did delete the arm9loaderhax.bin from the root of his SD Card, then yeah, all he needs to is as you said, put it back there.

Great thanks I'm on the settings menu and i'm sort of scared to update like step 7 is telling me to because well I don't really know how to confirm I'm on CFW SysNAND.. :/

If you are booted into a homemenu it is luma. It's the only way the system can boot now
Also there is an option in lumas config that will change the ver in front of the fw in settings to sys. You just have to turn it on.

Oops I'm already on the latest sys version anyways thanks a lot guys for helping out just a little more and I'll be out of your way <3

Another way to tell, is if you setup your Luma settings as instructed in the guide, which is "Show current NAND in System Settings." Then it'll say "sys" in front of your current sysNAND version, as opposed to "ver." But you should def be in CFW sysNAND.

But anyways, congrats on A9LH+Luma3DS! Enjoy!

No you go right now
If you have any other questions don't hesitate to ask


Also I missed a good chance to use this

And thats all folks! I'm done hacking the 3DS(so far) with fully functioning ARM9LH, thanks a lot to everyone who helped in not only this thread but other threads I made and private messages galore. Thanks a lot and I appreciate all the support I received I truly am the ultimate noob cheers!

Glad it's all sorted, Enjoy the 3ds.

I'm back again (so soon you brat, I know) so is there any sort of list of stuff I am not supposed to do like going to eshop or using youtube or pressing settings and twirling 3 times infront of the 3ds

You should be safe to do anything. Luma blocks anything from touching firm 0/1 so a9lh won't get removed. So even if something broke and you bricked you can still load d9 and restore a backup

Last question I promise(not really ), so what do I do if I want to play backed up legal roms and is online play/use allowed(i.e. going online with pokemon x or buying something from the eshop)

Going online is fine with bought and "backed up" games. You just use a CIA installer to install the games and then play them

What about buying things from eshop?

That's fine too. Anything you can do on stock can be done on cfw

Just out of curiosity can I play .3ds games I dump from a cart using uncart directly? Or must I convert them to .cia format to play them?

You must convert them

Hey, since I'm just done with this too, I just have one more question because I'm not sure about what I did at the end.
so, everything is done, ARM9lhax installed etc, but it says:

Update your CFW SysNAND to the latest version using system settings

So, I've no EmuNand, I just have my SysNand, is it safe to update here ?
I understood the principle with having RedNand and SysNand but now since I only have one Nand I just wanted to understand what I have exactly before upgrading ^^

 

[Hitsuagaya]

My personal advice is if you have just finished it you should have had to update the system settings to highest previously could you tell me your firmware youre on right now ?

Updating sysnand is safe with luma and a9lh. Luma blocks firm 0 and firm 1 from being updated. That is where a9lh lives.
