Yes, but is my system 10.4 after dsiware downgrade or 11.0?

 

[gnmmarechal]

Yeah, I know, but menuhax won't work since I got 11.0 menuhax

Get steelhax if Menuhax won't work?

It will still say 11.0, but it'll have a 10.4 NATIVE_FIRM (same as 10.4-10.7), so just proceed as if it were an older firmware system.

Thanks. I'll try tonight. I hope it succeeds. Thanks for letting me know about this. I am very happy with the community

I did it, now restoring my nandmin.bin.

- Edit Activity Log: this will allow for editing individual entries on your software library.

Once you implement this, and I manage to clear out System Settings without disturbing any other entries, and you have a Donate button, I will send you $40, cross my heart hope to die

Hey - just wanted to say you've got a really great tool here! I can see myself using this in the future when you are able to release a version that can edit the play time c:

On that note - would it be possible to add a feature that would back up and then restore the contents of the Activity Tracker? I'm currently switching from O3DS to an N3DS and after many complications, I'm going to have to start 'fresh' with the Activity Tracker again ;o;

Oh my GOD the software unwrapper function is amazing. Thank you SO much.

So uh... slight bug I guess. I had ssb4 installed, I needed space so I uninstalled it, and when I ran "update home menu cache" it caused my carts icon to be a black square. The game still works though.

Spoiler: screenshots

My activity log is glitched since I system transfered and counts all my activity as system settings...Can that app fix that?

Delete the HOME Menu cache and let HOME Menu create a new one for now. I'll look into this.

Try using Cthulhu to update the shared icon cache then see if it's fixed.

Being able to edit your steps would be nice as well, currently there is no homebrew way to do it, just a leaked SDK app from the usual places.

This would actually be pretty useful, I can think of three uses for it.

1. Mario & Luigi Dream Team Bros has an equipment called Hiking Boots, that increases the POW the most steps you have on your home menu pedometer. Having 8312 steps gives it +130 POW for example. No idea what the cap would be.
2. O-Powers in Pokémon X/Y/OR/AS will recharge quicker if your Pedometer has more steps. 4000+ steps max out the recharge rate at 4x faster than normal.
3. The latest StreetPass Mii Plaza game Mii Trek/StreetPass Explorers uses your pedometer steps when passing on streetpass data.

I have some exams this week and a trip on the weekend, so the next release will take some time.
But here is a build of my latest commit, which adds demo play count reset, software unwrapping/repacking and eshop bgm replacing.
For eshop music replacing, use this tool to convert your .mp3 song to .aac, then put the generated bgm_boss.aac and bgm_xml.xml files into sdmc:/3ds/cachetool.

Please report any bugs here or on github, and I'll try to get them repaired once I come back. Thanks!

Thank you so much!

Strange, it always crashes with data abort while updating any icon cache on my O3DS. Works fine on N3DS.

we really need this, so i can put the "first use" of some games to the date they was released

 

[gkoelho]

[CoolFangs]

Any news on this tool? Really would love to have a way to edit my activity log.
