I love you op o just got a fire emblem fates special edition 3ds on 11.4 means I can sacrifice my hacked 3ds to the cause and then ditch it.

What improves?

you'll need B9S for future CFW updates

Not sure if this is a troll thread or not but have a bump since I intend to hack my 3ds in sooner or later

What's the point if you already have a hacked 3ds?

>CFW updates
And whats the benefits of that?

This is what I want to know.

Me too

any reason to bother if you already have a9lh?

When is Nintendo going to make a new portable system?

Can you get someone competent from /hbg/ to elaborate OP?

New CFW replacement for a9lh that runs off the systems internal memory, not the SD card. Gains control over the system even earlier in it's boot cycle, so marginally faster boot. Also means it can be the basis for more interesting CFW fuckery in the future.

The average user doesn't benefit much from this right now. If you need to update Luma3DS(and other applications later on), then you'll have to install B9S, but outside of that, most of what you'll be doing is the same.

>tfw only ugraded from RxTools to Luma recently
>never did any of the A9LH tutorials

Can I jump straight into B9S?
The concept of further downgrading to grab files always scares the hell out of me.

I just use my hacked 3DS to demo new games and for Custom themes, why bother upgrade from A9LH?

It's even less than 5 seconds difference. And there will be made no good use of the "extra features"

Nothing, it's DRM for updates.

I'm still using emuNAND and luma.

I dont see the reason to upgrade or do anything else desu. I'm fine holding down L when I turn on my 3DS for hax.

>faster boot time

who the fuck turns off their 3ds anyways? any normal person will just close their 3ds and have it stay in sleep mode.
the only time your 3ds is ever off is if you forget to charge it.

Did you update to 11.4 fine?
I am still in 11.2

lol

yeah I did for playing FE Echoes.

just update luma first, then go into system settings and update the system. I've had no issues.

This desu, I have al9h 2DS and a Menuhax + Luma O3DS XL. The XL is my primary use one and I see no reason to bother fucking with it. It just werks.

So don't install it until there's something you need from it?

It's just the new standard from a9lh with better features for CFW developers, so you need to swap to it to use newer versions of CFW like luma. This was bound to happen eventually.

Mine gets turned off a lot because children don't understand battery power yet somehow they can memorize a chart of what is and isn't effective in Pokemon.

i can already install shit directly to the 3ds with a9lh so what?

Can you play free games on it?

>tfw still using cakes and emunand

I am far too lazy to update to this shit

>trying to research what the benefits are
>few seconds of faster load time
>"potential" for cooler things (which a9lh promised but nothing substantial like DS emulator ever came)

There's no reason to upgrade if you already have a9lh and aren't into the hyper autism of personalizing every little screen. If you're just hacking it for the free games, this doesn't affect you.

no

I already have A9LH with luma3ds installed.Should I wait a few months for this to be tested or is it safe? There's no point in updating to the latest luma version if you don't go online,right?

as long as whatever games youre playing still work, theres really no reason to update anything.

I don't play any games, I wish I never bought my 3DS. Tempted to try Animal Crossing as I heard there was an update ages ago but I'd probably spend more time updating my 3DS than playing it

that's what it's for

My homebrew launcher still crashes so whats the point, i just want to use my custom themes.

Yes you can, all it takes is to run an app in the homebrew launcher to permanently hack your 3DS. No more fucking downgrading bullshit.

It's so simply the Luna dev dropped support for anything not b9hax.

Can you emulate DS games using your SD card only now or what?

It'll save you time doing it now vs down the line when there's more shit to change to get new features/stability fixes, or when nintendo updates the firmware. Since a9lh isn't supported for new luma versions anymore you'll get roadblocked eventually by something.

Sup Forums, you're chronic procrastinators.

Wow, so it's fucking nothing. What worries me is that they dropped support for A9LH, which Nintendo could patch in future updates.

to anyone who says "rx tools works fine" you keep saying that until your shit randomly stops working from an update

your payloads are most likely out of date and if your shit bricks, you have nothing to fall back on; a9lh gives you pre-boot options in case of situations like this, which is its biggest benefit

But isn't that illagel?

No, that won't happen anytime soon since the only person who was working on it dropped off the face of earth.

Not an argument.

nah

Fuck, I just want to play Love Plus without finding my old DS and flashcart

aw man

just use a flash cart

ez pz

B9S is more future proof / unbrickable

doesn't need to be tested, 100% won't brick
3ds.guide/updating-to-boot9strap

>tfw no sd card reader

Don't trust baguettes ever again.

it will never be good, get flashcart

>Post yfw you'll never hack your 3ds

Just go buy one already, user. It's not even that expensive

Okay, how about this.

sciresm.github.io/33-and-a-half-c3/

Prease undastandu, non programmaru-kun. Many benefits to CFW scene!

who fucking cares when unpatchable B9S exists

Literally nothing wrong with a9lh+luma. And especially not if you have FBI and homebrew menu installed. Sitting on 11.4 playing all my pirated shit online.

>can play online fine without updating to 11.4
>can access freeshop fine without updating to 11.4
>no more major game releases, almost certainly no more major firmware updates, at most an 11.5 that just closes whatever exploit eventually emerges for 11.4
>B9S offers no interesting features over a9lh

Not really seeing a reason to bother.

lol

How will that work if when you use a9lh you technically already bricked the main system?

see

luma isn't getting a9lh support anymore

I moved from Rxtools to Luma, do I have to follow the "Updating to b9s" guide, or do I have to do the Homebrew part? Both of them seem very simple, just not sure which one is for me, since the first one refers to having a9lh, while the second implies you don't have Luma at all.

This.

I got a 2ds running cakes and a limited edition "new" 3ds running a9lh + luma,and I play the 2ds more, and use the "new" 3ds for new releases.

The fuck is wrong with me?

Use the Updating to b9s guide.

How hard would it be for me to install this b9s shit and copy my emunand over?

That bridge will be crossed when there's an actual update out and my games stop working. Everyones going into full panic mode over something that doesn't even have any real rammifications yet.

If my 3DS got nuked by Pokemon Sun/Moon banwave, can I do something about it yet?

I pretty much update when there is a huge quality of life update (from playing more games, to plating updates/dlc/patches/to booting to Emunand without internet connection).

Yeah those bans should have been lifted.
Then again it's not like it matters, you can still get stuff off of 3ds.titlekeys.com

If you're talking online, however, I swear I read a tutorial on github about replacing or "fixing" the ban status that's linked to your NNID

>B9S
>needs a hardmod
>soldering

DONT DO IT IT'S RANSOMWARE FOR 3DS

There's a way to partially unban your 3ds which gives you access to online play and the eshop, but unlinks your NNID and you can't link it again.
Or that was the situation last time I looked up.

You can use decrypt9 or hourglass9 or whatever to change your localfriendcodeseed_b and SecureinfoA. These are copied from systems that perform a system transfer, while a new one is made on the system being transferred from, so you can generate new copies of these keys which are apparently what nintendo base bans on.

You sure? /vg/ gave me mixed answers, what if I follow the Homebrew steps instead?

Only if yoy have a system on 11.4

Then I assume you'll load into the homebrew menu. Which is probably irrelevent to what you want to do, since if you're on luma you can just use a CIA for that.

If you got any kind of CFW already you can softmod upgrade to B9S.

If you got a ds thats 11.3 or below you can go through the soundhax method and upgrade to CFW.

Only 11.4 people are forced to sod. Crossing my fingers that Nintendo will fuck up with the 2DSXL and release that shit 11.3.

>UPDATE IMMEDIATELY
No thanks, letting you guys betatest first. Maybe in a week

>Sup Forums, you're chronic procrastinators.
first rule of homebrew is don't update until you know all advantages/disadvantages

Has anyone noticed this yet?

Apparently the ability to run BS9 type shit has been a vulnerability forever, and they just didn't find it until they started using sighax to mess with the responsible registers.

Nintendo hardware engineers BTFO

still the same situation, NNID shit like poke bank / badge arcade won't work again ever I think, literally doesn't matter tho..well maybe for transferring Pokemon to Switch games

new 2da xl is coming out july 28th, though if you already have a 3ds theres not really a point since its just a 3ds with no 3d

What are the chances of the 2DSXL being hackable on release? I really want one and my 3DS broke.

We could have had sighax in 2012 if only someone knew about the key combination thing

Meh I think I'll just stick with emunand. I mean what's the point? I can already play everything.

you gotta install gba games to sysnand/emunand and takes up double space ayy lmao

Id assume pretty slim. They probably come with 11.4 installed at least, since they're not even out yet.

I've had EZflash 4 for years. Not much point in emulating GBA games when you can just play them from the source.

What's the point of this if I already have a9lh and never go online?
This hard pushing of bootstrap is very suspicious.

There is the potential of an update wrecking emunands, especially outdated ones. Luma for example will now only update through bs9, so any build before this point may end up insufficient. On the other hand, the 3ds will have support for a couple years most, so it could last till that point

i already have a9lh and blah blah blah. my shits hacked. so what does this shit do?

This. It's not even a huge difference like menuhax to A9LH was.

future proofing.
Although its very sus how everyone is rushing to this new shit without even taking 24 hours to bug test.
If you just want to play games it's not mandatory, you'll still be fine a month from now if you don't upgrade.

GBA games on 3DS are running native, it has the same hardware as GBA

3DS is literally a three in one 3DS/DS/GBA

I think I'll stick with emunand until the day comes when it can't be used.

I don't know if I should I update my reinand to this. Reinand is still working fine so I think it's not worth it.

It's true custom firmware You're not just merely patching the firmware on the fly.

I'm going to wait and see a little while how this pans out. Chances are the hackers will keep on top of shit and any new updates Nintendo release will never bother people who've installed true CFW, but at most might make it a nuisance to go online briefly.

Are there enough homebrew devs left that would care to make or install a totally custom firmware?
