Spoiler: Original Post

Now, before you start telling me this is worthless because it doesn't do a whole lot of functions, I just want to make sure everybody knows that this is my first piece of homebrew I have created. shocker. Well, I guess I have made others but this is my only public release so far.

It is very, very simple. Based off of the devkitPro application template, this really is nothing special.

Anyways, here is what it does:

You press a button and it tells you the button you pressed and if it works or not.

Yes I know. It isn't very. That is why I was debating making a thread.

I know it isn't much, but good job on it anyways. Ya gotta crawl before you can learn to walk. Or something.

I did learn something new from the code, so it's not totally useless

How did you get that verification badge BTW?

Where did you find API documentation? I was thinking about developing an MPD client app for 3DS so I can stream music to my 3DS.

Yay, you made the thread ^-^

This could be useful for testing broken trigger buttons

Yeah. I figured that I made the thread for a reason so why not update it to not like stupidly uncomplete.

Sneak peak on GUI update

Actually this tool is really good to try out after doing a repair. Hey blujay, thinking about building a complete "hardware testing" tool? Because I think the community lacks one.

The 3DSident code might be of help if you wish to do such a project.

 

[YugamiSekai]

I'm still working on it, but there's always this if you need help https://gbatemp.net/threads/the-un-official-3ds-homebrew-development-guide.430034/

Like add:

• 3D Testing
• Touch Screen testing
• Sound testing
• Mic testing
• Card slot testing
• etc.

I'd be willing to do that

Exactly! That would be great for hardware repairers (and DIYers) and hell, just "hmm not sure if this and that is working" and users can ask them to use that tool. If even possible, it would be great to do a test on the sdcards so they aren't corrupt

I could look into that. I want to get the GUI setup first.

Of course, I was more throwing the idea out there. Since you already seem to doing something like this already, I just got curious.

Glad to see an idea like yours crop up from what I thought would be completely ignored

Thanks for taking a look at the app and I will make sure to start incorporating that

The camera check is on the list?

 

[Deleted User]

Ah yes. I'll add that as well. Thanks for reminding me

http://gamebrew.org/wiki/Diagnose very handy utility, needs ds flashcard though.
