Homebrew SafeA9LHInstaller

[toto621]

Just tested it (full install over delebile's fork) without issues...Reading other posts I was not in a mood to risk only stage2 update and end-up with a potential brick.

Thx Aurora

If you full installed with it, you are safe to update stage2 since it is from the fork you used to full install, but well, should better to wait anyway xD

I switched from Delebile's Fork to Aurora's one so I made full install but yes, since I'm now sticking to Aurora's Fork, I will only do stage2 update if needed.

Its discussed in arm9 thread. The purpose of the feature is to restore firm2 if it bricks. Atm to set it up it requires a hard mod to inject the payload.

Do you mean FIRM1 or FIRM0? I dont recall a FIRM2...

Also, could you possibly link me to the post that explains how to use the HOME button implementation?

THIS might make me switch to A9LH. Still not sure yet.

I really want too except that I can't stand that my ds wont boot without an sdcard. How is lesshax treating you?

hello where to get the latest a9LH files ?thanks

 

[Nintendo4DSXL]

Thanks @Aurora Wright succesfully uninstalled Screen init

 

[GinkREAL]

What forks do you guys use for a9lh?

or

[GinkREAL]

Is it safe to do a full install over a already existing installation? And still unsure if I should get Fix94's fork, or Aurora's with or without screeninit

I might have a dumb question but I'll ask anyway.
How could I be certain the current commit of Aurora's fork of a9lh is in a stable state AND that I compiled it right?

Here is what I compiled from the 034620e (noscreeninit branch) commit:
Payload Stage1 SHA256 - B2C70F5388451CA21B50807E512B85D20FF034BD28CCF67F7838ED701D0C538D
Payload Stage2 SHA256 - 6644C6BAE6922D611E801BA7D4AFEAA8187C4EFFFB7D5F2BE1B654E958D478B9

I just complied the noscreeninit branch. And the SHA256 of two output files are the same as yours.
But currently I used the master branch.

Only updating stage2 is high risk.
The full install should be OK.

Lol, yes, firm1.

Going to bed now but sure I can do in about 7hrs.

Night, night

Earlier, I updated only my Stage 2 so that I could remove screen init. Thankfully, it ended well on both of my 3DSs. Now, hearing that its risky, happy that mine didn't bricked.

I full installed it again anyways using Aurora's fork, success on both.

 

[timmie897]

Just did a full install with the no screen-init version. Everything is working fine and I got rid of the screen-init flash on boot.
Now I can finally play some games

Thanks Aurora for the cfw+bootloader+a9lh installer

 

[OrGoN3]

Sure. release it the day after i put a9lh on my o3ds. is there any reason to switch to this one or is just the installer that differs? ty Aurora!

It's only the installer that differs, this one is much safer.
This one also allows you to install different forks of A9LH easier, such as Aurora's fork of A9LH.

So after seeing many bricks, what is the safest method? Also, what is the best A9LH fork?

Using this installer is the safest method.

As for the best fork, IMO it's Aurora's fork. It uses the latest version of A9LH but without screen init.

 

[qlm2009]

And always do a full install. Because you don't know when stage2 is not compatible with the original stage 1.
