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.

Question though, if I'm using a boot manager, then using AuRei A9LH would probably be something not to do since I wouldn't be able to see the boot menu correct?

Currently using ARM9Select and pretty happy with it (BL only on uncart/decrypt9/a9lhinstaller) but don't know how this A9LH would affect that.

Some boot manager has buildin screen init. Like bootcrt9 or the buildin loader of arn

Hmm okay. I guess I'll stick with the select one then. I get confused with the different options. I tried the noscreeninit from Aurora, but it seems to flash the backlight on, then off, then boots.

Yeah I just installed Aurora's fork, reverted my stage 2 back after I saw the screen flash

Nevermind, I compiled the wrong branch.

Sadly though I think I'll have to stick with A9S though, since I can't use D9/Uncart without BL since they don't do screen init.

PixelBurst · Mar 20, 2016

For those that got confused like us, there's a no screen init branch, cheers for that gunner007.

AuReiNAND activates the screen for whatever payload you need when you use the L+R chainloading feature. I have Auroras nonscreeninit fork installed and can launch decrypt9 by just holding L+R then boot.

Oh I know. Perhaps it's my hands, but I have all sort of difficulty trying to press L+R+another key while turning on. That and sometimes I use Rei from time to time. But tbh, both seem to work just fine. I was just using A9S so I can hold A to boot D9, B to boot AuRei, Y for uncart, and X for A9Installer and doing nothing boots auRei.

Can you post the compiled stage 2 please?

Oooooh ok, thats a fair enough reason. I have skinny and lanky hands so all the button presses arent even a problem for me.

Plus the only other payload I really need is Decrypt9 and thats only for safety. So its just set to L+R

Use at your own risk ofc, I've used it on my N3DS and O3DS without issue, but I decided to full install stage1 as well just to see how it worked, I haven't actually tried them alone.

So, I am on delebile's A9LH(I guess?) and I want to switch to this one. I want to do a clean install(of AuRei's A9LH) but if I ever want it, will I be able to boot Decrypt9(with AuRei's L+R) and actually have screen-init? Also, where do I find the firm0.bin (which is new3ds90.firm), firm1.bin (which is new3ds10.firm) and secret_sector.bin? (I have an OLD 3DS. Why do we need the NEW3DS FIRMs on an OLD 3DS?)

Yes, you don't need screeninit in stage2 because aureinand handles that.

delebile's git has instructions on how to get them, don't think I can post them here.

This is an installer, not a fork. However, you can use Aurora's fork of A9LH to remove screen-init.

So, I just compiled both branches of Aurora's A9LH fork (master and noscreeninit), compared the resulting payload files, and they are the same for both branches:

Code:

f42e592c0ddbfcadad865d9b4e8155a8c9a0ac537a4608aac4b6d9cc73bb1919  ./payload_stage1.bin
f708a3a7b6c5b7b2c3d6a7df685489f2ccca4093159a978bf4ca1ca4dbd5980e  ./payload_stage2.bin

Shouldn't they differ?

As someone who just compiled and used them both one after the other, they both definitely work as intended regardless.

Edit: Unless ofc you accidentally compiled the same one twice.

qlm2009 · Mar 20, 2016

I complied both branches too. The file size are different. Noscreeninit is smaller.

Nephiel · Mar 20, 2016

Nevermind, I didn't git right and cloned master branch in both cases. My derp. Sorry.
The noscreeninit hashes are indeed different:

Code:

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

I've got a 95% success rate.
