Already happening, thanks ;) Read it somewhere else (5-6 actually :huh:... don't know if that's neccessary).
It's not necessary, because if there's a problem if there's a problem it will fail.
But better make sure with 2 dumps than be sorry.

So that error may be an sd card busy error. I've already added a small wait when retrying in writing for the next version. Hopefully it will fix the error.

I still want to add a verification check.
Maybe I can do it today.

-------

BTW, the support of 2 font sizes is proving a lot of work, but I think I'll manage to release it today.

loaded kip from sd
loaded kip from sd
identified package1
keyblob version 0
loaded pkg1 and keyblob
generated keys

then freezes
So it's stuck on pkg1 decryption and unpacking.. hmm.
I'm going to sleep now, so I'll make you a debug version tomorrow.
For now try some more times (and try to format/check your sd card also if you don't mind).
And try with v1.6 also. To make sure that I don't have a mem leak somewhere.

Stock is normal to get stuck for some versions for now (it needs proper keyslots).

Thank you very much for providing a version that work with version 3.0.1. What a great work you did !!
It failed at first to launch the CFW but my sd card was formatted with exfat so I reformatted it into fat32 and it not works

Your link does not include the sdfiles.zip. So I use the ones that come with the package for the 5.x version
but I don't know which one is better 4.x or 5.x or they are all the same.

I get the same issue on 1.0.0 trying to load cfw. Using v1.6 on a fat32 formatted card and the sdfiles linked in the first post.

Tried every release up to 1.5, same thing.

The original rugfcr I was using still works so don't think it's the sd card

Edit: from 1.5 to latest

Yeah the keygen changed a lot since rugfcr. rugfcr is actually the hekate - ipl 2nd commit.
I'll send both of you a debug version first, that will show exactly in which step it stopped internally.
Then I'll send you a test version.

If it's exFAT or FAT32 does not matter (except if you don't have the exFAT micro update).
The sdfiles.zip are the same, there's a link in OP. You have to extract its contents on the root folder of your sd card. Not in a folder sdfiles.

Btw, when you saw that error, you also saw another one in yellow letters?

Did you extracted the sdfile.zip into your sd card?


And more are coming. As long as I have time, I'll even push the smallest optimizations.

What is the purpose of package 1? if ive backed up raw and do i still need this file? sorry about the quote, couldn't find direct mention of it

Check OP, it has a direct mention of it.
ive read the entire thing twice, also searched for words with package1, only mentioned once and thats in the tool word only.
sorry mate, not being lazy.
What is is for and is it included in the raw dump?

    @Psionic Roshambo, By default, the polygons are filtered with differing to simulate depth, which doesn't make them clearer.
