True, True. Sighax isn't miles ahead of A9LH like A9LH was to 9.2 sysnand, but i'm wondering if it can get any better than this. B-)
As far as I know, no. This is the last puzzle piece if I remember correct. If bootrom is owned, it's nothing left to really break open.
 
I guess It's finally checkmate for nintendo. B-)
Not at all, it's checkmate for the 3DS security. We still don't know about the 2DS XL yet. But would they really make a whole new revision and to patch that away? Highly doubt it.
 
a new arm9 exploit maybe?
Since with the keys bootrom can provide, it should be possible to sign the payloads ourselves. So in theory, we could just downgrade how much we want as long there is a way to install the patches. They keys could make any custom edits legit.
 
If there was, DSiWarehax would be a moot point and 11.4 wouldn't need sighax to be hackable.

I'm assuming you mean "how do you use DSiWarehax to install this on 11.4".

You buy and download a DSiWare game from the eShop on a 3DS with CFW. You then use GodMode9 to inject an exploitable game and its exploited save into NAND. Then, (after making a NAND backup on your CFW console to restore later) you do a System Transfer to the 11.4 console to move the exploited DSiWare to the unhacked console.

DSiWare has access to NAND, so at that point you can write sighax to your NAND using the same general exploit that a hardmod would use.

Doing a system transfer moves over your NNID from the source console, so it's not without its negatives.

Do you actually have to purchase a DSiWare game or is it enough to download it via fShop (since you already got CFW installed on that lower firmware console)?
Thanks for the little tutorial by the way!
 
I just restored an old 11.2 sysnand backup (and lost most of my stuff) thinking I could install sighax on a lower version without a hardmod or Dsiwarehax then realized that I probably can't luhmao

Yes, if I remember correctly you need a legit DSiWare game as a "container" for DSiWareHax.

It would have to be a purchase. It has to survive system transfer. There are size limits. Wait for the Guide update.

Do you have a9lh? If you do, you can install it on any firm.
