Hacking [RELEASE] GATEWAY 4.0 BETA (Private Beta Program)

[Deleted member 373223]

things have kind of changed since they have released an arm9loaderhax.bin compatible with standard setups. though I haven't gotten it to work with Luma3DS chain loading(only when it's "arm9loaderhax.bin"). haven't tested BootCTR9.

(also this single buffering stuff looks weird)

but if you use the a9lh installer by them, it does not supporrt a9lh.bin

I'm aware of this, but there's two ways out of it:

• use NAND restore (assuming it's fixed)
• if you have a Gateway card, boot sysnand and downgrade to 9.2 (this overwrites FIRM removing arm9loaderhax, and won't brick New3DS since it's before 9.6)

Is there a way to automatically booting into updated sysnand alongside GW without pressing any buttons?

I guess using Bootctr9?

Automated downgrading/OTP dumping.
Called it.

I don't get the point can anyone explain this simply that what is this for?

 

[trigao]

I dont get it yet
But can we use this just to get otp.bin and use With the plailect's guide?

How can i use the arm9loaderhax.bin provided by gw team?
Where the say

UPDATE: Due to popular demand we implemented a ‘arm9loaderhax.bin' file that can be used with existing (non-GW) A9LH installs.
Link in their site

Hm so now we got private instead of beta .
Now we wait for the official.

i had a quick look but could see anyone saying if the files is different to the private release the emailed to testers.
usually people check the hash and see if there is a difference but I didn't see anyone do it this time.
anyway, i think it's different, i read there is no 3d glitch anymore, good

It is. I was in the alpha testers wave. The 3DS turns off now quickly and don't take like forever to turn off and they fixed a lot things like, screen flickering etc.

The dangerous part is the downgrade. We can downgrade with their tool and install A9LH with a normal installer,and that part isnt risky.

Is this fixed with other boot methods as well (CN, OOT, etc.) or do you need to boot via their A9LH method to get these fixes?

nobody care about YOUR opinion

Reminder that their drawing code is shit:

Not without downgrading.

 

[milh0use]

Not without downgrading.

So i still need to make a hardmod on this N3DS to make sure i can save if have some brick?

Correct.

Worst come to worst you'll softbrick while downgrading, but that can be avoided if you're willing to format before the downgrade.

got everything working. Here's what i did:

got liomajor's a9lh payload implementation, replaced with delebile one found in the Plailect gide (part 5) and using the "official" safea9lhinstaller (not the liomajor one).
putting down_gw.bin in luma/payload folder, and i dediced to give a try to the new launcher, so i replaced 3.7 with 4.0b.
result:
very impressed. got it booting by pressing "down", they fixed 3d bug and the long time to wait to power off 3ds.
on the other side, i noticed a "buffered" screen when loading gw screen, but i can live with that.

Does anyone know how the Time Machine works? It says you need to boot into emuNAND and then run it, so that means it must back up your emuNAND, downgrade your emuNAND, back up your emuNAND again, back up your sysNAND and then restore your downgraded (and hopefully unbricked if you're on N3DS) emuNAND to your sysNAND?

What does A9LH actually do for your 3ds? I know nothing about it so for example when I have gone through the steps with Gateway on the N3DSXL and I have downgraded to 2x and got to these points at the end>

• Go to A9LH Installer menu option again, follow instructions on screen until congratulations message appears.
• Reboot your console and enjoy GATEWAY A9LH on your N3DS (what do I do after this point)

Can I then update my systemnand to 11x and GW will work or something on systemnand not emunand anymore? sorry for being newbish but I really have not got a clue what it does for you.

Also in GW's instructions it mentions nothing about your region Time Machine packs do you need those on your SD Card as well as the other two? where do they go? or are they not necessary anymore with 4.0b.

Can anyone answer please? do you need the Time Machine Data Pack on your sd card with 4.0b or not anymore? it mentions nothing in the instructions but did in the private build
