Homebrew [Release] FBI - Open source CIA installer

[ihaveahax]

Can the built in updater update the injected FBI? Or does it have to be installed as a cia for it to update?

assuming there's a newer version, using the updater will install the newer version to SD card. you would have to make a new file to inject to update an injected FBI.

a better solution would be to install FBI to SD, and fix H&S/inject something else into it.

It cannot. The updater would just install the standalone version, if an update was available.

Is it possible to allow FBI to update the injected version? Or is that not technically possible?

As far as I know, it isn't.

not without creating a separate CIA with different title IDs (to match H&S for all regions) I think. which is not really worth it.

Ah I see. Thank you both for the answer

Do I need to delete my FBI injected h&s app if I install the latest FBI cia?

No you can either overwrite the inject FBI (no recommended) or you can just install it to your home menu (recommended). You don't have to delete anything.

Did I do something wrong? I renamed the latest FBI.CIA version (2.6) to hs.app, used Universal Inject Generator and renamed FBI_inject_with_banner.app to hs.app, put it on the root of my SD card, used Decrypt9 to inject health and safety, but my FBI version 2.6 comes up with the following error:

--------FBI has encountered a fatal error!--------


Failed to open text color config: no such file or directory


-------Press any button to exit.-----------

You're using an outdated version of Universal Inject Generator.

When installing a CIA I made, I got this error:

Result code: 0xC8A08035
Level: Status (25)
Summary: Invalid state (5)
Module: AM (32)
Desc: <unknown> (53)

The CIA isn't even corrupt.

EDIT: Never mind, I had to make more space in the system memory.

Tried 2.2.2 and 2.2.6. Importing from file seems to work fine(tested with one title)
Saw the "fix" with deleting whole Nintendo 3DS folder, but damn... Any workaround?

Now that's a good bug report

What language is your console currently set to? And can you try setting it to English if it's not currently and seeing if it works?

It's currently set to Russian, changed that to English and it worked! Seed downloaded successfully. I'm impressed Oo
Just for curiosity, what exactly triggered this bug? Something charset-related and url generating i suppose?

Nah, just a mismatch of a comparison. I was bored and took a look at the code I've opened a GitHub issue for it if you want to keep tabs on it: https://github.com/Steveice10/FBI/issues/131

For the time being though, using English as your language should make that feature work, if it's not too much of a hassle

CFG_Region and CFG_Language mismatch, i see. Thanks for the fast issue posting! I was just too lasy to register at Github for that >_>

Well, CIAngel borrowed that code, so I figured I should look into it so we can fix it in our project too Hah.

 

[gamecaptor]

Since the update feature won't work for FBI if it's been injected, anyone have any other suggestions to replace it with (I'll just install to the home menu instead).

Re-confirmed that FBI 2.2.6 's Delete Ticket function is actually a Disable Ticket function.
"Deleted" ticket still can be browsed by GroovyCIA.

BTW, two Chinese members 結栤の涙 and 啊特殊准备 introduced a new deleting method - Manually modify ticket.db with Hex editor, fill in the to-be-deleted ticket with all 00.
After deleting ticket with this method, the deleted tickets not only disappeared on SysNAND/EmuNAND, but also never displayed by GroovyCIA.

The hex modified ticket.db is tested safe on my both SysNAND and EmuNAND.

I have a problem with network install, just kick the install, I'll try to send DoA from my pc and android device, but FBI just show if I want to install the cia a several times. What can I do?

Not exactly. The ticket database (along with all of the other title database files) is created with empty slots, and these slots are filled over time as tickets are installed. As far as the 3DS is concerned, when a ticket is deleted, it is no longer there. However, the data is still left over in the now-unused slot, so some ticket-viewing programs may report the ticket as present. The one you mentioned, for example, just looks for ticket headers within the file (https://github.com/Ptrk25/CDN-FX/bl...56cae0/src/groovycia2/TicketHandler.java#L109), rather than parsing the full database structure and paying attention to flags like that which specifies whether a slot is used and its data is valid (https://www.3dbrew.org/wiki/Title_Database#Title_Entry_Format).
