Hacking [RELEASE] Luma Updater

[gnmmarechal]

Good. (Took them long enough to notice... They been sleepin' for months.)

Why the fuck do you feel entitled to an update in the first place? How dare a program have a bug, am I right?

don't use luma updater. I don't think it works anymore. use universal updater.

btw, afaik, it won't update the ctrnand firmware one. I had to delete the boot.firm on the root of the ctrnand, then copy and paste the boot.firm on the root of my sd card. I tested it. it worked no problem, and unlike the sd card one, I didn't have to redo my settings.

Thank you for this!

Decided after a LONG time to load up my 3DS, and check some things, and saw it did not have the latest FW on it. Went and did that after seeing that it was safe to do so. Then going through my apps, I came across Luma Updater and it showed an update (v2.6). Thought ok, and went with it. It errored out, and when I tried to turn my 3DS back on, I got an ARM11 exception error. Guess the updater went and emptied the boot.firm file prior to the error. Had to turn my system on without the sd card (boot.firm on CTRNAND), insert after, go into FBI, and copy that file from NAND to my sd card that I had set up. Now works, and will be deleting that luma update will try updating via universal updater.

I deleted my luma updater just a bit ago. I just made a backup of the nand and the sd card contents again without it.
