Homebrew Update 10.5!!!

[Darkrai]

About the ban thing, it will be permanent if Nintendo want it. My brother tried to use stolen credit card on my recently brought N3DS and I'm permanently banned due to "security reasons", Nintendo says. I can't enter the eshop, I get the error 005-5964. I'm able to update the system but not the games.

But after the downgrade to 9.2, I can do anything on my console that a non-banned 3DS user can do (updating games via CIA). They don't block you from playing online, they block you to be able to update so you can't play. Before the downgrade, I was able to play Kid Icarus online without any troubles, even banned, because it haven't any updates for online play.

Currently my N3DS is banned, with 9.2 sysnand and 10.4 emuNand with Reinand CFW, and I can play all games online just fine.

So this ban thing it's not that all to worry about, at least my type of ban. I don't know if there others ways, I'm posting this for knowledge purpose, more we know about theses bans, more we can avoid it.

Changes:
Nver is now 30 instead of 29

So do we have to update NVER again to v30? Got the link or info?
Will v30 work in 9.2 like v29 does?

If 29 worked on 9.2, I bet 30 would too.

 

[GalladeGuy]

I wanted someone else to confirm it will work. I dont like flashing system files as there is always that chance to brick it.
And how do we get v30? I lost my info on how to get them.

I really have no clue what you are talking about. :/

Now, for the smart people, does v30 work with 9.2?
I'm not sure if they are firmware specific or not? Some games need a higher firmware so I cant see why system files also wont need a higher firmware.

Just in case this hasn't been posted yet, if you own a N3DS and plan on updating to 10.5, and you use Menuhax 2.1, please uninstall it before you update because that version is incompatible with 10.5 firmware. I had to learn it the hard way after deciding to update my N3DS, where it caused a brick like situation.

Spoiler: But if you forget to uninstall Menuhax 2.1 before updating (Like I did):

Don't panic! You can still fix this!:

1. Turn off the console and remove the SD card
2. Turn it on and you should see the normal menu
3. Insert the SD card
4. Change your theme

If you're fond of Menuhax, go ahead and get 2.2, because it's the only one compatible with this version right now.

Does the 3DS have to be on the latest version for Streetpass to work?
And should I get myself rxTools 3.0? I'm on an O3DS with 2.6 rxTools.

You could backup your existing rxTools in your SDcard and try the newest Nightly. If it doesn't work, delete the nightly and restore your backed up rxTools folder(the 2.6 one). That's what I had done.

Be careful though, because the newest builds don't require the firmware.bin, but the "firm" folder which is downloaded from a script(cdn_firm.py) inside the nightly .zip

[Salamencizer]

That is just copy paste.

Stability level over 9000

 

[Salamencizer]

Stability level over 9000

Nintendo wants to make the 3DS attain stability more than infinity

 

[4ur0r]

Stability = less bugs, less entry points, less exploit, fixs.

i believe the 10.5 update blocks FBI Installer from installing any CIA's... im unable to install any unlike on 10.3

[Demonslayerx8]

Are you on O3DS?

Yeah I'm on o3ds rxtools emuNAND 10.5 and sysNAND 9.2

I think that's normal, because when you run a system applet on O3DS (e.g., friends list, browser, notes), the home menu actually closes, meaning that the home menu "forgot" you opened the out of region presents when it comes back.
