Hacking [Release] NTR CFW 2.0 for New 3DS

[cell9]

Import Notice:
NTR CFW could be boot from the official N3DS system only. It can run genuine gamecards only. The unauthorized copy of software or clone hardware in any form will NEVER be supported in NTR Mode.
In short, no cia, no piracy.
I personally will never support any kind of piracy. Using genuine gamecards is strongly recommended.
I have never made NTR CFW 1.7, please be aware of fraud downloads.

This thread is out-dated, NTR CFW 2.1 is here:

(I made a new thread because I don't know how to change the title, sorry for that.)

Spoiler

(Hint: If you have installed other exploits already, hold L+R+X+Y at game's main menu to erase the savedata)

How to boot into NTR Mode:
1 Turn on you console, wait a few seconds before starting Cubic Ninja.

You will make many people happy with this.

Any chance for an eventual Ocarina of Time 3D port?

 

[gamesquest1]

The unauthorized copy of software or clone hardware in any form will NEVER be supported in NTR Mode.

so does that mean sky3ds is blocked

 

[zoogie]

Is an internet connection required here?

[Flayim]

HOLY SHIT SOMETHING NEW! ABOUT TIME! Please support eur/aus Thanks man you're awesome!

 

[Jao Chu]

Yay!! Region free on the N3DS without swapping cartridges!! Well be purchasing a second SD card to use this when you support AUS consoles.

 

[MrJason005]

Neat

 

[freejak13]

Will eshop work in this cfw? Wouldn't you need to be on the latest firmware?

[Wowfunhappy]

Holy crap! This came out of nowhere!

Is there any sort of rom menu in here, for dumping xorpads for example?

 

[stanleyopar2000]

sooooooooooo......this is only pretty much useful for legitimate region free capability

Yeeaahh.... fun fun.

how about homebrew emulators?

And sky3ds

 

[stanleyopar2000]

And sky3ds

didn't OP state that unauthorized devices and piracy would not be allowed? so that's a no.

it's awesome more people are exploiting the CN exploit and are learning how it ticks to reverse engineer it. Maybe things that do more than just Region Free will be in the future

 

[zoogie]

This is amazing. The region free works flawlessly on my jpn n3ds.

didn't OP state that unauthorized devices and piracy would not be allowed? so that's a no.

There's no known way any software can block a hardware cart spoof yet. If so, Nintendo would have already done it.

 

[sanni]

Where is source code?

 

[freejak13]

didn't OP state that unauthorized devices and piracy would not be allowed? so that's a no.

If OP can detect sky3ds then he/she's discovered something nintendo is currently unaware of.

 

[Necrojinsei]

Fantastic!
Just one question, can you use this on 9.0 then? Your post makes it seem like it cannot, though it would be nice to have.

Great work none the less, very happy to see this released, and to make is so easy for region free.

 

[SpongeFreak52]

Fantastic! Thrilled to see this released, gonna wait for PAL support, it'll be so nice to play US carts on my standard N3DS Great work!

 

[fafaffy]

Wow, this is actually quite amazing! Hoping you could soon support US N3DS's (as there's many games such as Miku that are JPN only), but regardless, nice job OP.
