I guess you are right, I tried to reboot from 11.0 native firm and stays on red screen, but rebooting from 90 native firm it boots. Do you know in which file of the code are supposed to set the keys? starts.s? stub.ld?

Why are you trying to do this? Does rxTools have a function or feature that doesn't exist in other CFWs? Or is it just an interesting intellectual exercise?
1.- Something that I used to love on rxTools was the all-in-one frontend in a nice looking GUI, yeah, there are better alternatives out there, but same as cakes, rxTools is not for all kind of users nor the most popular CFW, and it didn't stop the developement of Cakes, I'm pretty sure that if rxTools gets A9LH + firms protection, it will rise from his grave.
2.- Yeah, It is actually pretty funny looking, modifing and testing with rxTools code.
Edit: I found the issue what was preventing from booting on a9lh, I will fix that tomorrow.

Hope so, but surely I will get a working a9lh rxTools on this week.Is a release coming tomorrow? I would love to test it out

Edit, Actually... I wrotte to fast, the main problem is that @duke_srg not only refactored the stripped down tools from Pasta code, he literally refactored enterily rxTools, so I will much difficult that I did think. Hope @duke_srg returns soon to team working on that nand mount issue...

So, since a lot of things brokes rxTools on A9LH (not only the nand mount issue) , I decided to move to libctr9 and probably will remove vanilla rxmode patches and move to 3ds_injector , but I will try to keep the refactored tools and the GUI both made by @duke_srg . Please, keep in mind that this will not an easy task that could take months but I will do my best, I'm not a experienced developer and I only have modified existing projects (arm9 projects to be honestly), but if someone experienced on libctr9 and 3ds_injector wants to contribute, you are welcome
I appreciate the determination, keep it going

Please keep in mind that 3ds_injector currently has a compiling issue. It's on the issue list, and yifanlu has no time to fix it.So, since a lot of things brokes rxTools on A9LH (not only the nand mount issue) , I decided to move to libctr9 and probably will remove vanilla rxmode patches and move to 3ds_injector , but I will try to keep the refactored tools and the GUI both made by @duke_srg .

Sorry if I didn't reply, but I have some stuff to report.
Since rxTools is pretty hardcoded and I have no knowledge to make a proper modification to fix the outdated code and the lack of a9lh support I decided to make something diferent.
I talked with @Wolfvak on discord and he recommended me to better make rxtools from stratch, so I finally decided to make it what users are actually demanding, a CFW that feels like rxTools but isn't rxTools at all.
I present to you Lima3DS!!!
This is a pseudo-clone of rxTools that feactures tools that are taked from D9 and E9, the CFW will be totally based on Luma3DS because is the most up-to-date CFW out there and will feature a DevMode based freeway because Luma lacks of a minipasta-like mode, I doesn't feature any new atm since its only intention is to be a rxtools-like CFW/Toolkit. Atm it features a simple UI based on rxTools 2.6 and D9, but it will feature a simple version which will feature a GUI like PastaCFW with not optional patches and an advanced one which will feature a GUI like PastaCFW + the JSON GUI made by dukesrg from YARX with optional patches like Corbenik does (except for firm protection, I don't see the point to make it an optional patch). It will be compatible on every entrypoint and on any FW between 4.x and 9.2
It's still in wip and I will try to push a prerelease as soon as I can (too busy on this week and in the next one).

I'd like to change the splash bottom into a girl picture
BTW, will Lima3DS support rxTools 2.X Spider Hack?
Since CakeHax has incompatibilities on -2 to -6 and some unmatched frankenfirmwares such as 7.1.0-10.

Lima, Puma, Luma... we've already got people mistakening Luma for Luna and "Llama3DS."Sorry if I didn't reply, but I have some stuff to report.

Just for the name though, the actual CFW itself is a great throwback, but with modern features. Sounds good.

You will be able to make your own custom background in bin format, also it will support spider, mset, ninjhax and, of course, a9lh (which is why I decided to fix rxTools and lately work with Lima3DS).
Supporting Spider is not that enough because Spider Hacks are different.
As I mentioned, CakeHax Spider cannot boot -2 to -6 firmwares and some rare frankenfirmwares, but rxTools 2.X Spider & Gateway Spider can.
If Lima3DS sticks on CakeHax then it is expected to never support those firmwares booted by Spider - since mid-kid has already said that fixing CakeHax Spider's frankenfirmware compatibility is not his high priority work, which means this fix is infinitely postponed.

Yeah, atm Lima uses Cakehax, so sorry :/ but I will take a look on it anyway
Actually I didn't touch entry points and CFW at all. Only menu system and actual tools was refactored. Literally only code in /rxtools subfolder was changed.So, since a lot of things brokes rxTools on A9LH (not only the nand mount issue) , I decided to move to libctr9 and probably will remove vanilla rxmode patches and move to 3ds_injector , but I will try to keep the refactored tools and the GUI both made by @duke_srg .

BTW, current rxTools fork is less hardcoded than any existing 3DS CFW. 3DS file formats, NAND format, SD boot sectors - all has been moved to structures from the hardcoded values.

yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done -
@

I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?

@
Sicklyboy:
@TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one -
@
Sicklyboy:
I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
@Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!

@
TwoSpikedHands:
I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
