Homebrew Unknown service mp:u

[Mrrraou]

I found that System Transfer uses that service, but there is nothing about it on 3dbrew. Does anyone knows what is this useful for ?

I found something on 3dbrew: http://3dbrew.org/wiki/MP
Makes sense, since DSi->3DS system transfer is possible. It's probably used for that.

mp itself has access to nwm::EXT (more control over the nwm networking stuff?), cfg:nor and ptm:s. But cfg:nor is used to write the DS-mode NVRAM (i.e., the one where you'd write the mset exploit ROP to).

I'm too lazy to actually take a look at the code; none of the strings in the exefs are useful to determine what it does.

I think it's used when transferring from a DSi.

 

[Mrrraou]

Oh, okay, thanks a lot. I thought that cfg:nor did that instead

It seems like mp:u is used for the actual communication between the DSi and 3DS in order to transfer data (after validating it with Nintendo's servers, of course), though cfg:nor may be used to write parts of that data to the 3DS, as according to 3dbrew it's used to access the WiFi NVRAM/SPI flash. Maybe to write DS/DSi-mode wifi configuration or something else.

Not sure about that, I didn't see it at all in the MSET permissions. (I added these to 3dbrew btw)

Hes asking if there is any documentation. Unless you intend on bringing something worthwhile to the thread then gtfo scrub.

It was a joke. (right?)

System Transfer is a separate title, I believe.

Yeah, of course, but System Settings can access DS NVRAM too for WiFi Settings

It was, geez, some people just don't have a sense of humor around here.
