Homebrew [Release] SocketPunch - FBI network CIA installer for Android & PC

[Solo761]

I found a bug in SocketPunch v1.2.1 beta, silly bug, but annoying .

If you upload CIA from some folder, then after download is done I delete the folder, click on "Open CIA files" nothing happens, no file browse dialog, but in command prompt (if i start it with java.exe and not javaw.exe) I get

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Folder parameter must be a valid folder

So I guess the problem is that it doesn't have "fallback" what to do in case last used path is no longer available and if tries to use it by any means.

Maybe some if else is in order? Something like

if (new File(path).exists())
   jFileChooser.setCurrentDirectory(path);
else
   jFileChooser.setCurrentDirectory(new File(System.getProperty("user.home")));

I think it's best to go to user's home folder, as it should work crossplatform. Getting current folder of the JAR file is too much work for something that's just a failsafe.

Also, this happens even if you close SocketPunch GUI and start it again later it will remember last folder used, it won't default to some "safe" folder.

Alright. Thanks for commenting It. It was an issue since the very first version. I've just been lazy enough to not fixing It since then.

Thanks for commenting!

No problem. I guess I was predestined to stumble upon it. My job is software tester...

It's a bug which causes the Transfer to faik after the first install. I'll fix It for the next update. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Finally an app for my Android that is actually useful and not full of add. Will definitely use it thank you!

 

[Dragoon709]

This is awesome!! Now I don't have to take the back off my N3DS to remove the sd card to copy cia's over to install.

i mean its good but why would you want to put cias via your phone? its kinda useless

Well. There are Android and PC versions.

I happen to install sometimes small CIAs on my friends' consoles. I don't see anything wrong if it's possible to only carry my phone and not my heavy laptop (from 2001) for that purpose.

I have managed to setup an emunand using ALMOST exclusively with my Kindle Fire after I managed to get Homebrew on the ds. My Android FTP Client and Socketpunch Android were my best friends.

Good to know!

I'm still working on an update for the Android version, by the way, but it'll be out later, due to work.

Thanks for commenting!

To be perfectly honest, the android version's been more consistent than the computer version XD

I WOULD JUST LEAVE IT BE LMAO

Android support? Heck yeah, I can do something for once!

I have the latest FBI and the Socketpunch v1.2.1-beta for Windows PC. I had the v1.0.2 before, and I used it quite well for the FBI 1.4.17 (which I still have as my H&S replacement) but for some reason, I'm unable to chain multiple files to my latest FBI v2.2.6. When the 2nd cia starts the FTP install, I get an error. But whenever I do the chain transfer on the legacy mode, I get no error at all. Was wondering if it was because I installed the FBIchenfix cia. Thanks in advance mates! (I'm sorry if this was already posted, nib here).

This is a problem with my code for working with the new FBI 2 protocol.

I fixed this some time ago, but hadn't been able to post a new release. I'll do it soon, since I'm getting some free days next week, and I'll probably have more time for my projects.

Thanks for asking.

Oh yeah I figured I'd mention that I was able to completely setup an n3ds with an emunand using exclusively an android phone, this program helped immensely
Hooray for MicroSD's and hooray for Socketpunch! "May the sok be with you"

 

[Damon_girl]

Will this ever be released for iPhone? Like on Cydia for JB devices?

Not by me. But, I remember there was an iOS app already out there. There's a thread here in GBATemp, but I couldn't find it.
