Hacking Homebrew Misc Remake Unofficial Luma3ds

[The Catboy]

Maybe Star3DS, because Luna3DS might confuse somebody for the OG Luma3DS.

But then it might get mixed up with the Stargate 3DS.
Maybe Dasey3DS?

But then it might get mixed up with the Stargate 3DS.

Yeah, you're probably right.

Thanks ofr both your tips now that I tehk indeed luna3ds might seem too familiar with og luma and star is there stargate3ds so no good as well.
Also dasey3ds seem a great suggestion sound good
But also another one suggested polari3ds it doesn't seem bad at all also it is a super Mario galaxy 1 reference.
Lemme know what you think?
Maybe I should hold a poll?

A poll would be a good idea!

Hey, thanks for the great build!
This build is especially better for me than the official one and I prefer to use it all the time.

By the way, is it a big hassle to add nightly to universal-updater?
As I mentioned earlier, I love this build and would like to use the latest build as much as possible.
If nightly builds are added to universal-updater and updated, I would be very happy because it would make it easier to use the latest. thx.

Hi, thanks for the kind words.
Yeah I noticed just yesterday that there is a problem with unidb so I will have to write an issue and ask for a fix since soon it will also get its name changed I thought of doing it right after this poll will end
But for now if you want it the prerelease build
Here you go

Sorry but you have to download it yourself on sd directly

 

[2024]

Thanks for the reply!
I installed it!
Hope it will be a cool name
I voted too!

 

[Alexiox]

Thanks a lot have fun with it.

Hi, about the name I know that isn't the most original but what about luma3ds++ or something like luma3ds PRO (pro for prototype)? I'm saying this because even if it's on steroids it's basically still luma cfw. A completely new name from my point of view it's more suitable for a new cfw from scratch or very heavily modded from the ground up. But it's your child obviously whatever you name it we are here for the functions. Keep up.

Hi, yeah I thought that as well but on universal updater they said that it can be confusing so here I am searching a new name.
Thanks also for the keep up cause I'm quite busy this period so it brings satisfaction knowing that people like it. Also it is not mine only I accept external help and tips as well, I'm trying to make it based on suggestions, so everyone can feel as part of the project.

Do you think it is possible to change the MAC address ?
Yes, I know that the actual hardware address is read-only and cannot be changed.
However, I thought it would be possible to change it after it has been read into memory, like changing the OTP.bin.

Analyzing the communication, when accessing the server online, it sends the Mac address that was (presumably) read from the hardware at startup, along with SecureInfo, local friend code, OTP (console ID), etc.
One of these things that remains unchangeable using this fork is the MAC address.

So being able to change this would be very cool, but the official Luma team would not be interested at all.

I have moved my OTP and other unique information from my old 3DS and this feature would allow me to do that more perfectly.

Thanks.

Hi, I sorry for the late response.
Then for answering your question that you are asking can be made with creating a patch for the module cfg nor or use the reimplementation open source.
Yeah the easiest way would be make a modification to the cfg reimp and yeah loading the nor image directly on memory not only the mac address that should also fix ds mode for who has broken nvram...
Also Mac address is probably read each time
One solution for two problems. Though this was a light talk I will think about it,
thanks for the suggestion.

Does Polaris have the option to disable the Wifi and Notification LEDs? That's the main feature I miss from the Quickswitcher's Luma3DS, as I moved to mainline Luma3DS for the ArcticBase game streaming support.

Also, when moving to Polaris, how do I remove the mainline Luma3DS from where it copies itself to NAND, anyone know? I don't want to have multiple conflicting versions present.

EDIT: I have Issue #2087 open on the official Luma3DS Github with a feature request to add proper LED controls to mainline. This is one of the main missing features from Quickswitcher's that is still not present in mainline Luma3DS.

I took the plunge and tried this out on my main N3DS. I like the additional features. Disabling power to slot one, quick toggles, automatically enable and disable Wi-Fi, LED toggles... Haven't explored everything yet, but have this booting as my default CFW already. Looking forward to exploring the per-game CPU speed settings.

Extra nice being able to turn off one of the screens. Handy for VC and some emulators.

The additional features in pirate launcher seem really handy, too.

Hi, everyone, it has been almost a year, but here we are again. I will post here the package for now.
It includes a release of streams Rosalina in it, only for new models, and as well the pirate launcher. as always.

Sorry for the long time without answering, but hey, better late than never.
Yes, it does all of you asked above.
Also, if you don't want that it copies itself to the nand there is a build for that.
