Hacking Yellows8 just semi-announced a 9.2+ Kernel Exploit

I still don't know much about the headers... What do they do?

If you want to play online, you need to assign each ROM a header. SKY3DS has public headers (dumped from a cart passed around a long time ago) that will get you banned when you go online. A private header assigned to each ROM makes it so that you have a unique online ID for that ROM (even if you use the same private header for every ROM). Hence allowing you to play games online.

Where it gets confusing is making sure you chose the right cartridge type (there's three manufacturers of 3DS cartridges) for the ROM. If you don't choose the right one, you'll get an error trying to get online.

Then I would need one that can work with Animal Crossing: New Leaf, Cubic Ninja (for homebrew), mario cart 7, and super smash bros for 3ds from japan.
A console ban can't ever get removed?

I don't remember the manufacturers for all those, but let's say you have a dumped Mario Kart header. You can play all those ROMS you mentioned with that one header. When writing the header to those games however, you'd need to know what manufacturer they were made by and select that in NoSkyNoBan or a similar tool.

Nintendo bans last generally from 2 weeks to a month if you don't.

To be fair its not exactly baseless speculation like other threads, if the man (women?) makes a change on his wiki like this it reflects what he knows. We will probably never see anything on this until it's patched or discovered by someone else who makes public documentation.

Why does everybody get pissed when a new thread appears and somebody's just trying to spread news?
Are you afraid that there will be so many threads and pages to go? That's what a search option is for. Better, just look through the pages and don't be so frickin lazy.

tl;dr

Can we make and play backups without paying out the ass and getting scammed by random Chinese vendors yet?

I thought they were japanese... All flashcard retailers own japanese systems, not chinese.

Ah, alright.

rxtools

Is that on 9.2+ yet? I'm on 9.5. Is my console still lolworthless?
How do you use that without a 3DS flash cart, anyway?

 

[tony_2018]

Yeah...exactly....

If you're on 9.5, only thing you really have is tubehax/ironhax, which don't load ROMs. Just light homebrew.
Maybe some region bypassing and that's all.
Also, the days of being tied with a rope to the chinese flashcard developers are over, since CFWs are here, CFWs like rxtools, pasta (which has been merged with rxtools), palantine cfw etc etc. They all use CIAs, which show up on the home menu, not .3DS files.

You're still tied to old FWs so any current console is as worthless as a freaking brick.

I don't have the YT app or Ironfall. I have the browser, which is utterly worthless.
Ah well. Maybe my lol3DS will be useful some day.

inb4 the noobs start making thousands of "When will yls8 release his kernel exploit?!!!1!?" threads

EDIT: also inb4 NeoSlyde attempts to teaser another one of his fake exploits

There isn't any actual news.

Fake until proven real. This is how any logical person should assume these things are.
So this is fake until it is proven that he isn't BSing.

He doesn't BS. He is one of the main guys in the scene. The one who found the OOT exploit.
