Hacking Official [Release] CakesFW

[JJTapia19]

How many times did you try? It has around an 80% or so boot rate according to the author

Did you try it a few times? Its not very reliable.

I've just tried 10 times with diferent enry points and no luck With Ironhax it takes me back to the homebrew launcher again. With themehax it get stuck at red screen.

 

[dark_samus3]

I've tried to load about 20 times but no luck

Hmm... So FBI (the one Stevice10 is trying to make work on 9.0-9.2) doesn't work on N3ds with *hax 2.x and neither does brahmah 2 on *hax 2.x hmm

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

It won't, and it's most definitely a timing issue so you'd need an N3DS to test.

Yep its a timing issue just like Stevice10 thought

Here's a video of a coldboot to cakes emunand 9.9 for all you doubters. (thanks @Steveice10 for the no button payloads)

Notice the yellow theme. That's because the emunand is unlinked and doesn't interfere with the sysnand theme cache.

You renamed the new cakes.3dsx to boot.3dsx? Hahaha. That's why I asked @Steveice10 to build one.

Thanks @zoogie for your contribution.
I'd like to add it to the official release, but reading the comments, it doesn't seem to work so reliably.
I'll wait for the things to be ironed out.

Meanwhile, I was trying a different approach: Porting CakeHax to themehax directly, so we can remove the need for ninjhax2's otherapp payload. This effort isn't going very well, however.

Hoping someone can point me in the right direction here. I have my O3DS at sysNand 9.2 and have created a GW emuNand as well. I can boot into emuNand in both rxTools and CakeFW through Spider, the only thing I can't seem to get working is installing a title manager in emuNand. My enuNand has FBI 1.3.8 on H&S but everything it installs just comes up with black nameless icons. I was looking to install either BBM or latest FBI on the emuNand. Do I need to unlink sysNand to get this stuff working?

Thanks!

Easiest thing to do is once you get everything working on system nand, backup the sd card and format emunand, unlink the nands and put everything back on and repeat again to get everything working on system nand. Once done all you need to do is update emunand

@zoogie can you build the new ninjhax entry point based on updated brahma 2? Haha.

I cherry-picked the Brahma2 commits into a new branch on CakeBrah: ninjhax2.
Here's a build.

tested this. it's working good.

 

[dark_samus3]

@mid-kid I wonder if merging Brahma 2 will have an effect on ninjhax 1.1? I'm not sure that the code will be compatible

The only thing that changed in brahma2 is a different way to clear icache. It should be compatible with 1.1.

It's loaded but after 2 red flashing on bottom screen it's back to hbm, nothing happened

It's got the same bugs and limitations as Brahma2. Please try the "regular" Brahma2, and report it's bugs in the Brahma2 thread. If there's a bug CakeBrah has which Brahma2 doesn't have, then report it here, but I don't think that to be the case.

n3ds or o3ds? n3ds is known not to work, and on old 3ds it may take a few tries (it isn't as reliable as it is from ninjhax 1.1)

Sorry not to mention that. I'm on N3DS.

 

[Arcanuskun]

brahma 2 is not working yet on n3ds

 

[dark_samus3]

Sorry not to mention that. I'm on N3DS.

Well there's been a new commit for Brahma 2, booting for o3ds seems to be 100% reliable now but n3ds still doesn't seem to have any success... It'll be here soon, don't worry, its just been a sudden explosion of development... Yellows8 with two new entrypoints that are AWESOME and then Brahma 2 and Stevice10 working on FBI for *hax 2.x on 9.0-9.2... Give it about a week and there should be a lot more done, but the advancements made are very promising for the future

That means I can Boot it with Theme hax on my New 3DS 9.0?
