Homebrew [Release] 3DS Quick Shutdown

[daxtsu]

This small app lets you shutdown your 3DS without using the power button.

Obsoleted. Use Luma3DS's Rosalina's power menu or one of the forks mentioned in the later pages of this thread.

Thanks! This will save my finger for getting sore!

Wow. This MLG homebruh is soooo dank. Can you make club penguin memes appear while turning off?

 

[MsMidnight]

Seems like a good hombrew. Well done mate.

Great idea, I don't like the design and place of the power button on N3DS at all.

Thanks for this really handy app! I've made an alternative .smdh for it

I know this is a noob question, but how does one make a .smdh ?

Hey, thanks! if you'd like to make a 256x128 banner for it too, I can use that, along with the nice icon you made (for the CIA builds).

Cool.
I've had something similar for a while i made with brahma and archshift's i2c.
This is good though And probably safer (apparently the i2c stuff can be possibly dangerous, I've never had any issues though).

Yeah, I didn't want to mess with i2c. The only real mystery left unsolved is how to control power to the wifi chip. The Home Menu can obviously do it, so it must be somewhere.

So would this work with Gateway (+ NTR)? I use NTR Debugger a lot, but it's kind of annoying how, when the Debugger is enabled, the only way to turn the 3DS off is to push and hold the power button.

Here you go! Hope you like it.

It should work fine; I just ran NTR on top of Reinand, enabled the debugger, and ran my app, and it shut down as expected.

Here you go! Hope you like it.

That looks great, thanks! I'll use it instead.

You can use the search bar and search SMDH Creator. Its simple to use!

 

[Jwiz33]

This'll come in handy. Thanks!

I've updated the first post with the new banner/icon builds. Thanks again, @JJTapia19!

Edit: also pushed to Github. Forgot, lol.

So instead of pressing a the off button we press the A button...
Well, I guess that not having to held down the off button in a new3ds makes this kind of helpful

 

[I8UrMum]

Nice m8.

I've uploaded a newer build which delays shutting down (the same delay as the Home Menu), so please upgrade to this build. Yes, it slows down the shutdown by a few seconds, but it should be safer than just turning off instantly. The 3DS OS needs time to shut things down properly.

Edit: Also removed the known issue(s), it works fine on *hax 2.1. I thought we didn't have access to ns:s with it, but we do. ..Also fixed the stupidly named folder. I was originally going to fork Quick Reboot but I just ended up making my own.

Edit 2: Uploaded a new zip, removes the N3DS requirements from the CIA version.

Is it possible to have a version that does a shutdown even if buttons are pressed? I'd be so thankful for it!
