Thanks to samiam144 for asking me to try this again(didn't change anything the first time - but i changed SD cards/fully formatted it , redownloaded everything in between):
Here's what a user said a few pages back:
You also forgot to tell people to delete Palantine Launcher.dat and rename Launcher_GW.dat to Launcher.dat so anyone following your tutorial will get 2 grey screens and a forced reboot.

So, I ran GW_INSTALLER.NDS from the blue card folder from the gateway zip via my DSTWO . This means I have MSET right?
If so, following the instructions in the first post to boot into Palantine/PBT CFW results in An error has occured. Causing me to restart. I simply see two grey screens while holding L and pressing the DS profile button.

EDIT- I've run through this like 3 times from fresh and done the holding L part 50 times and haven't booted successfully. WTH -_-.

If you already have a gateway, you don't have to do all of this to install a cia installer, just use your gateway to directly install FBI/BBM on your sysnand.

I only have a DSTWO.Once I have bigbluebox titlemanager installed, can I delete everything except the nintendo 3DS folder? Since i need to boot into gateway(I replaced the launcher.dat already) to create emunand according to the tutorial im following to install rxtools.

Hi all:) need some advice,I have found a tutorial to downgrade system setting to a earlier version to enable the use of the dsprofile exploit on the New 3ds xl, has any one done this to get pastacfw to load on a new 3ds xl via this mset option. Would prefer to get away from CN i can. One more question please, can we yet launch hombrew channel via dsprofile exploit or is CN required? I also do not own a gateway, only CN
Thans :)

I'm with you bud. I've tried everything to get the installation wirelessly through Palantine. Even from the help of a fellow member here at GBA Temp we can't get it done. He's been helping me from Yahoo Messenger. Booting into Palantine is a pain in the arss!!! Not only that but using the.bat file isn't working for me either. This certainly is an aggravating process.

I wished I had just bought a Gateway instead of going this route. I spent over half the price of a Gateway to get all the stuff I needed anyhow. I had to buy a 4.5 retail cartridge. I had to buy a functioning DS mode flashcart in the R4i Gold 3DS to use Gateway mode.

It wasn't the best decision looking back. This is a pain in the butt but if you get it to work then you're finally set for Pasta CFW. But, that's if you can get it working at all. I've not been able to accomplish this yet. Thanks!

I'm just aggravated. I'm giving up on this method for a while. Been trying for 3 days. I don't think trying a different PC will help. On the one I've been using, I disabled all antivirus & firewalls thinking that would help but it hasn't. My main problem is getting the wireless installation with the run.bat file.

The command prompt window keeps showing "unable to connect" message every single try. It happens really quick too. This tells me that something could possibly be blocking the connection to 3DS but I have failed to figure out what's causing it to be blocked. :unsure:

I duuno, I have antivirus & a firewall enabled...The bat file sends one line of code - so it should be quick since the cia file isn't very big and it closing like that means its failed to run/there was a error I believe. You've definitly edited the BAT file , mine looked like this:
installcia (IinsertedmyownNintendo3dsIPHERE) 1 BigBlueMenu.cia

Yeah! I get the failed to connect message pretty quickly after launching the .bat file. Something is blocking it but I don't know what. I asked the member that's been trying to help me if it was my outdated browser on the 3DS but he said no. My .bat file looks like this: installcia (3DS IP address) 1 FBI.cia

I have all the required files in the folder where the .bat is launched. I have no clue as to the problem but I guess I/we will get it figured out eventually. Thanks!

A different computer may help in that case, if it still doesn't work it may be your router settings but yeah by general fixes probably won't help you lol.

I do have a different PC. I might copy all the files needed from my laptop to the desktop PC & give it a try. As far as the router goes, I wouldn't know what setting(s) would have an affect on this. Thanks!

Just tried this method on a different PC & still no luck. Still getting failed to connect message from command prompt when launching .bat file. I don't understand this crap. If it's my router causing problems then what could it be? I'm stuck on this step & can't get past it. Thanks! :wtf:

Try with a mobile hotspot.

You mean from a cellphone & just from a hotspot somewhere? Why that way? Why do I have to go to such extremes with this crap? I mean it's like pulling teeth! It shouldn't be this difficult.

Has there been any other replies in this thread as to where members are having connection problems like mine? It's like a mystery as to my problem. I know others had issues booting into Palantine but I haven't seen any about connection problems.

From a smartphone yes, I had this error too, I connected both my console and my laptop to it and it finally worked.

I'll give it a try I guess. However, what in the world makes this tutorial have to go to such extremes? Holy Cow Andy! :O BTW, I've never launched a .bat file from a smartphone. The same process as on PC? Just double-click the file while the 3DS is booted into Palantine?

Do I need a special app from the smartphone to launch .bat files? It's not working. Also, will it work from a tablet too? I have both devices but having trouble launching .bat files from these 2 devices. What do I need to do? I certainly DO NOT want to try the other method that master yoda posted before my previous post. Thanks!

What are you talking about ? I didn't say you had to launch anything from your smartphone. Delete all the connections from your 3ds,start tethering with your phone, connect both your laptop and your 3ds to the mobile hotspot, start the cfw, use wireless Network watcher to get your console ip, then modify the run.bat and execute it (from your pc of course)

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)

    run h2testw on it
