Everybody, calm yourselves. If the file name "aprilfools.bin" didn't give it away, this is an April fools joke. I opened all three of my dumps in HxD and guess what? None matched. Don't store garbage on your PC, none of this is legitimate. But, that is to be expected when April first is tomorrow, possibly today for them. So let's all take a step back, and realize, this isn't the saving grace of the 3ds scene!

Bootrom encryption changes every boot, Ninty implemented it as a security feature. If you decrypt it the'll all be the same.

It wouldn't even be that amazing if we did have the bootrom dump, other than nand decryption and encryption, which really isn't needed since A9LH with CFW does pretty much what everyone wants.
The permanant CFW sounds nice. But if its true that these dumps are just encrypted randomly each boot. It only will be a matter of time until it gets done. (If this is actually real)

Plausable, but I doubt it. I get a lot of 0Fs in the file.
True, but, the presumed BootRomLoaderHax could provide a permanent CFW. Let that sink in.
Bootrom encryption changes every boot, Ninty implemented it as a security feature. If you decrypt it the'll all be the same.
So I suppose it would truly be a futile effort to work on a bootrom dumper?

Soon arm9loaderhax will be peasants and menuhax will just be irrelevant
MenuHax? Is that still a thing? Seriously, after switching to A9LH, I think you all can agree, MenuHax is just inferior in every way shape and fashion!

A9LH is already pretty much permanent CFW. You will never even boot into sysNAND unless you really want to XD
Well yea, i guess so. But we more than likely would need a9lh installed already to just install this "bootromhax" thing if it ever comes to existance

Part of the point of bootrom is permanent CFW without a9lh. I'm looking into making this stable w/o arm9 (thanks @Supster131 for the source :))

    Will you give me mouth to mouth oxygen if my throat closes?
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Nah the air can do that

    I could also yank out the rest of my teeth but theirs professionals for that
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    If your throat closes, putting oxygen in your mouth will not solve anything - as you will be introducing oxygen prior to the area of obstruction
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Just kiss me Kyle.
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    You either need to be intubated to bypass obstruction or create a stoma inferior to the the area of obstruction to survive
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    "Just kiss me Kyle." And I thought all the godreborn gay stuff was a smear campaign

  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    It was waiting for you to order another one.
    Seems like, your PSU was waiting for a partner.
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Keep them both
    separated or you'll have more PSUs each year.
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Well one you insert one PSU into the other one you get power
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    It literally turns it on.
