Hacking The State of emuNAND (including Gateway), Homebrew, and Sky3DS on 10.4

[Aroth]

hmm, is there an alternative to get FBI on my 10.4 emunand?

I've heard that NASA works as a .3dsx. Otherwise you will need to find a way to inject it into the H&S app

You can try running the memchunkhax2 version of FBI (or NASA: http://gbatemp.net/threads/release-nasa-cia-manager-for-fw-9-3.409806/ )
Technically mch2 is patched on 10.4 but emuNAND is not using 10.4 FIRM so it's worth a shot.
Alternatively, use FBI injection.

I'll just re-do my emunand. NASA didn't work, and I dont think I can inject since its a N3DS past 9.5

 

[Hammyface]

on my n3ds I can just update my emuNAND to 10.4 through Nintendo's update?

The only reason I'm scares is when I go into system settings in emuNAND, it does not show that I am using a CFW (rxtools used to show that you were using it when checking which update you were on).

try NASA while on EmuNAND. I have heard that it works for installing non-legit CIAs to EmuNAND while on CFW. However, I do not know how it will react to Memchunkhax not working on 10.4 as I have yet to test it myself.
EDIT: try using decrypt9 as it has the ability to inject FBI over health and safety app on EmuNAND while on sysNAND.

Are you using the latest reinand update?

Are you using the latest reinand update?

It's from his github so I am assuming yes. Why, should I be seeing something indicating CFW when I go to settings? Gateway used to say something like GW9.0.2 or something and RXtools had an indication as well.

Original post updated to reflect Gateway support that was announced a few minutes ago. All relevant CFW now supports 10.4

The latest version of Reinand (3.1, the version on the releases page of the github) is bugged and does not show the string. Otherwise it is perfectly fine and I still recommend you use it.

I already fixed it, with a workaround (inject my movable.sed that I wanted to sysnand after backing it up, install a cia installer, then copy to emunand, then restore original sysnand). Might not have been the most efficient way, but it worked (for some reason, it wouldn't even let me use NASA or FBI on 9.2 emunand from homebrew)

Thank you! So should I update to 10.4 from Nintendo in the system settings while in emuNAND if I'm using reiNAND?

Just double/triple check you're in emuNAND before you enter system settings to do the update (it helps if you use custom themes or have folders that spell "EMU"; just make emuNAND look different, assuming they're unlinked). Once you're in system settings, do not exit it, and then update.

Thank you so much. Just so I am 100% certain, 10.4 works on emuNAND on the *new* n3ds, not just the old, correct?

Or should I just stay on 9.5?

10.4 works on both, as long as you're using CakesFW or Reinand for New 3DS. RxTools still does not support 9.6 and higher on New 3DS. On Old 3DS, it doesn't matter which CFW you use, feel free to update.

Yeah I am on reiNAND. I just didn't know if there was some reason to NOT update to 10.4. Like I am hearing that even in emuNAND, if on 10.4 all my games ask to update?

Games will always ask to update, but you don't have to. The only one that is *mandatory* to update on 10.4 is Ironfall, but if you have emuNAND, you don't need old Ironfall.

Thank you so much. I think there is a rumor going around that all games have to be on the newest update or they won't launch if you are on 10.4.

Nah, it's just Ironfall. That's not to say they couldn't require it in the future, but for now, at least, it's just the one game.

Right but what I heard is that the 10.4 update introduced a filter and as of now the only title to be added to the filter is ironfall. What I don't think anyone knows for sure, can nintendo now modify this new filter that has been added at anytime without necessarily having to issue a new update that includes a revised filter.

And to add to the commit above, wouldn't it be safe if they do play this wild card to be on 10.3 as to not be affected?

I remember seeing some people saying it's hardcoded into the update. Meaning they actually have to throw an update at us for the filter to update.
