Hacking What to do with a 8.2 o3ds?

[Myth]

*Thanks to anyone who answered the memset questions, however that was another 3ds console.


I have a 8.2 3ds that runs pasta through a Cubicninja cartridge, I have no knowledge on the newer hacks that have came past pasta cfw, I'm willing to update to 9.xx but I have no idea how to; .cia? Would someone mind explaining how to setup the most, efficient system that can run, unsigned .cia's & whats the most efficient way to install a emunand now?



Thanks, Myth

Install rxTools. Install sysupdater.cia to your sysnand. Download the 9.0-9.2 update files for your region & console type. Place in 'updates' folder on your SD card. Boot to DevMode or PastaMode (NOT rxMode). Open sysupdater and read carefully the info on the top screen and make sure you've done the right thing. Choose update. Then you'll be on 9.0-9.2 (depending what files you downloaded).

You'll need to use https://gbatemp.net/threads/tutorial-installing-rxtools-custom-firmware-3ds-and-2ds.390867/. It probably has update instructions in it as well.

Would the update folder be on the root of the sd?

burn it at the stake!

Spoiler: Ontopic though

Upgrade to 9.2 using sysUpdater, install menuhax as an entrypoint if you want to and set up rxTools/whatever cfw you want

Put it in a museum. 8.2 is one-of-a-kind.
In fact, it's existence is might be somewhat of a myth.

Great point, it's a 8.1 now that I check.

yes. Make sure you use files for the Old 3ds! OR YOU WILL BRICK.

Is pasta mode, running pasta cfw?

I know mini-pasta is OK. Pasta might not be.

How do I setup/ use dev or pasta mode?

It should be an option in the rxTools menu. Some of the versions don't have it, I think it's 2.6 that does have it. Mini-pasta might be easier if you don't want to use an emunand (but you really should - otherwise there's a bunch of games you can't play, you won't be able to use the eShop or games like Badge Arcade, and you could brick your console if you install a corrupted cia - whereas if you installed a corrupted cia to emunand you could just restore a backup).
