Homebrew [Release] freeShop - open source eShop alternative

[Quantumcat]

100% sure we were on emunand. Even made sure to check in sysnand to see if it was there and it isn't, freeshop is on emunand only. went to fbi and looked at the titles and it's there, but when i try to open it, i get this error
Error: 0xC8A0CC04

FreeShop should take care of deleting bad tickets, but just in case, try deleting the ticket with FBI and reinstall it. You can get a QR code for the ticket on the titlekey database site.

Here's a qr code for a nightly build for all the impatient people. Main bug I see is the app crashes on close so settings will never get saved.

Not sure where to put this, or if anyone knows this, but If you have bought a second-hand/used 3DS/2DS console and have A9LH installed on it,
get Decrypt9WIP setup and dump your Titlekeys (using TitleKey Options > TitleKey Dump (SysNAND)) then decrypt them (TitleKey Decrypt (File)
and then upload the decTitleKeys.bin file to that Titlekeys site (even if you have never bought anything on the eShop on that console.)
.
It appears that even if the console is formatted, the Titlekey data remains in the TicketDB of the 3DS (although the tickets are probably marked as deleted?)
Seems those Titlekeys are readable by Decrypt9WIP. I've installed A9LH on a few used 3DS consoles (systems had no games installed and appeared to be freshly system formatted)
and managed to pull a few titlekeys for full games (and some demos too) which I assume the previous owners had purchased/downloaded off the eshop.
(Sadly, all the Titlekeys I got were already in the database, but its worth a try, your 3DS might have a few keys that the database doesn't have yet.)

(edit: Its probably best to do this just after you install A9LH (before you install any CIA file)
if the ticket data is marked as deleted, the 3DS might overwrite titlekeys when you install a game)

Just tried this. App crashes and forces a restart after it checks for updates. Any information I can provide to help?

Try removing the freeshop folder on the root of your SD and rerun it.

And another bug，cursor would disappear when you mess up with the settings,then you can't select titles.
But this is still amazing.

Around a month ago I was only getting 500kbps but now I'm borderline 2000kbps! I'm getting 1500 to 1700 right now. I'm using the same Internet of course, but was there an update that improved the speeds or is this just a fluke? Haha.

Nah. I was getting close the 2000Kbps too but today I'm getting just barely getting close to 400Kbps. Depends on the servers load.

I got 2MB/s too，but that is impossible，because my Internet is 10Mbit/s

Hmm, that's weird, that screenshot was taken around 5pm and the times I was talking about was about midnight. But I guess it makes sense when freeShop was new.

 

[Darkuni]

Big thanks for this! The nightly is definitely a bit unstable but man, what a work of art!

Can i backup games i installed using freeshop? let's say i downloaded a game and i want to delete it is there a way to backup it as a cia? or maybe add an option to download games as cia not just installing them?

Nope

 

[Quantumcat]

an option to download games as cia

Use CIAngel, it has this option.

 

[OctoNezd]

Use CIAngel, it has this option.

But CIAngel, don`t have many features of freeShop and it looks weird

 

[Pecrow]

I wish there was a "Downoad CIA then Install" option That way I would keep both, lol. But its not that important, i really dont care. Im just looking forward to the next-final update of freeshop with the settings, and hopefully being able to download updates, that would be insane

 

[SomeGamer]

CIAngel has much more options and has the latest games earlier than freeShop.

I still don't get why freeShop has the cache bottleneck.

 

[SomeGamer]

I still don't get why freeShop has the cache bottleneck.

Because it's faster this way, no need to request pics from eShop servers every time.

 

[Drakia]

I still don't get why freeShop has the cache bottleneck.

Same reason CIAngel doesn't have images/English names for Japanese titles; requesting that data on the fly is slow. Neither project wants to implement a bottleneck on usage, so there are sacrifices made in other places.
