Homebrew [Release] 3DS Quick Shutdown

[daxtsu]

That's nice, but I'm going to stick to how the Home Menu does it for safety. To me, it doesn't matter how long it takes when it shuts down, since that implies I'm done using it for the day.

Is it any more dangerous for it to shut off faster than slower?

Is it any more dangerous for it to shut off faster than slower?

original version:
- Use NSS:ShutdownAsync (http://3dbrew.org/wiki/NSS:ShutdownAsync)
- Wrapped call PTM:ShutdownAsync with timeout value of 14 seconds.

more quickly version:
- Use PTM:ShutdownAsync (http://3dbrew.org/wiki/PTM:ShutdownAsync)
- Direct call PTM:ShutdownAsync with timeout value of 0 seconds.

Easy. As you keep using the power button to turn your system on and off, the button eventually starts to "indent" itself more in the socket. I use this tool to prevent myself from having to press the power button to shut off my system.

Plus it makes a nice companion to QuickReboot. Using this as a means of powering down the 3DS is honestly no different than using the Start Menu to shut down your PC.

True i guess. But it should be a pretty easy fix.

What exactly reboots when you hold a button using the not always version?

asking b/c NTR stayed loaded when I 'rebooted'

It's not really a problem anymore if you use Luma or CFWs that have its reboot patch, but on O3DS, Smash, MH4U and several RetroArch cores used to reboot in a certain way when you quit them by pressing home and then hitting X, which would kick you out of CFW (and on A9LH this would leave you in a state with no FIRM protection, which is obviously dangerous). Nobody ever really figured out why, but if you quit those games/applications by launching another one instead of pressing X to close it on its own, it would keep you in CFW. With A9LH and the reboot patch from Luma though, it's not an issue anymore. If I ever update this, I'll end up making the "always" version the only one since it's the only one that's really useful now.

Ah, so its that reboot patch stopping the reboot

thx!

Nice! First Quick Reboot, then Quick Shutdown. What will be next? Quick Sleep?

Sorry for repetitive post.

So does pressing physical power button call the same function as your app? If so, how long the timeout is?

Pressing the power button on its own brings up that "Software closed" menu, so not quite. But as far as I understand, hitting the actual button on the touchscreen does call the one this uses. The Home Menu uses 14 seconds like this one (I believe 3Dbrew has this written somewhere also).

Thank you, your app is really convenient and useful. BTW, the Home Menu you mentioned, where exactly does it perform a shutdown function?

Well it's not really crazy or anything. Unless it let's us run .nds roms i don't think it will be in a crazy state.
