|
||
<p class="notice--info"><img src="https://3ds.hacks.guide/images/screenshots/multiple-id0.png" alt="" /></p>
|
||
|
||
<p>This occurs when you use your SD card in multiple 3DS devices and is intended to prevent inadvertently merging data that would not be valid on other devices. To figure out which long folder name is correct for your 3DS, follow these instructions:</p>
|
||
|
||
<ol>
|
||
<li>Rename the <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">Nintendo 3DS</code> folder to <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">BACKUP_Nintendo 3DS</code></li>
|
||
<li>Reinsert your SD card into your device and power on your device</li>
|
||
<li>Wait for the device to generate the SD card data
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>Your applications will have disappeared. This is normal and will be resolved shortly</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>Power off your device and reinsert your SD card into your computer</li>
|
||
<li>Navigate to the <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">Nintendo 3DS</code> folder on your SD card</li>
|
||
<li>Copy the 32 character long name of the folder you see
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>This is your true ID0 that you will use in <a href="seedminer#section-ii---seedminer">Section II of Seedminer</a></li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>Delete the <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">Nintendo 3DS</code> folder</li>
|
||
<li>Rename the <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">BACKUP_Nintendo 3DS</code> folder to <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">Nintendo 3DS</code></li>
|
||
</ol>

<p>The website has already mined your <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">movable.sed</code> using your friend code and ID0 combination. You can use the <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">movable.sed</code> that it provides you.</p>

<summary><u>Important! You have been locked out of the automated part1 dumper system...</u></summary>
|
||
|
||
<p>Your friend code was blocked from using the friend code bot because your 3DS did not successfully friend the bot. Ensure your 3DS is properly connected to the Internet, then join <a href="https://discord.gg/MWxPgEp">Nintendo Homebrew on Discord</a> and ask to be unlocked.</p>

<summary><u>We were unable to successfully complete your bruteforce request. :`(</u></summary>
|
||
|
||
<p>The website has determined that your <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">movable.sed</code> cannot be brute-forced. Ensure that you gave the correct ID0 to the website. If your ID0 is correct, then you will be unable to use Seedminer and you will have to use an alternate method.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>If you have a New 3DS / New 3DS XL / New 2DS XL (as indicated by the four shoulder buttons on the back and the C-Stick on the right), you can follow <a href="homebrew-launcher-(super-skaterhax)">Homebrew Launcher (super-skaterhax)</a>. Otherwise, you will need to follow a method that requires additional games or hardware.</p>

|

|
||
<p>This can occur if you’ve used multiple SD cards on a 3DS and then merged the contents of the SD cards together. This is done to prevent conflicting, valid data from being merged together.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>To fix this, you will need to determine which folder contains your data. Usually, this will be the larger (or largest) of the folders. Backup and delete the smaller one(s), then create a <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">Nintendo DSiWare</code> folder in the one that remains and move <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">F00D43D5.bin</code> to that location.</p>

If it is, then re-create it with the <a href="http://3dstools.nhnarwhal.com/#/bb3gen">Bannerbomb3 Injector</a>.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Also, ensure that <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">bb3.bin</code> is on the root of the SD card. If it is missing, then download the latest release of <a href="https://github.com/lifehackerhansol/Bannerbomb3/releases/download/v3.0-lhs1/bb3.bin">Bannerbomb3</a> (direct download), and copy the <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">bb3.bin</code> file to the root of your SD card.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>If neither of these solutions fixes this problem, then custom firmware may have been uninstalled on this device in a way that makes this method impossible to perform. If this is the case, join <a href="https://discord.gg/MWxPgEp">Nintendo Homebrew on Discord</a> and ask, in English, for help.</p>

<li>Launch System Settings on your device</li>

<summary><u>"To use the Internet Browser, please update your system using the System Update option in the System Settings."</u></summary>
|
||
|
||
<p>First, make sure you entered the correct proxy for the connection you’re using. If not, go back to <a href="installing-boot9strap-(ssloth-browser).html#section-ii---ssloth">Section II</a>. If the proxy is correct, then your device has been cart-updated, which means an alternate exploit will need to be used.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><u>Method 1</u><br />
|
||
If the two numbers before the region in the system version string is equal to or less than 36 (e.g. Ver. 11.14.0-<strong>36</strong>U), you can follow <a href="installing-boot9strap-(soundhax)">Soundhax</a>. When prompted to select a firmware to generate the sound file, use:</p>
|
||
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>1.x - 2.1 if the number is between 0 and 2</li>
|
||
<li>2.1 - 2.2 if the number is between 3 and 4</li>
|
||
<li>3.x - 4.x if the number is between 5 and 10</li>
|
||
<li>5.x - 11.3 if the number is between 11 and 36</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
|
||
<p><u>Method 2 (Old 3DS only)</u><br />
|
||
If you have an Old 3DS / Old 3DS XL / 2DS, you can try a Safe Mode update, which will trigger an alternate exploit:</p>
|
||
|
||
<ol>
|
||
<li>Ensure that the proxy that you used for SSLoth is still actively applied to your internet connection</li>
|
||
<li>With your device powered off, hold the following buttons: (Left Shoulder) + (Right Shoulder) + (D-Pad Up) + (A), and while holding these buttons together, power on your device
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>Keep holding the buttons until the device boots into Safe Mode (a “system update” menu)</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>Press “OK” to accept the update</li>
|
||
<li>If everything worked correctly, the update will fail and the 3DS will boot into SafeB9SInstaller. If it did, then continue from <a href="installing-boot9strap-(ssloth-browser)#section-iv---installing-boot9strap">Section IV</a>.</li>
|

<p>There is an issue with your <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">boot.firm</code> file. If you’re running <a href="https://github.com/SciresM/boot9strap/releases/tag/1.4">boot9strap 1.4</a>, your 3DS notification LED may flash a certain color. This color is used to diagnose issues involving your <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">boot.firm</code> file on SD card or internal memory. On older versions of boot9strap, the blue light will power off almost immediately when trying to turn on the device.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>If the notification LED flashes:</p>
|
||
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li><strong>White</strong>: Your 3DS was not able to find <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">boot.firm</code> on your SD card or on internal memory.</li>
|
||
<li><strong>Magenta</strong>: Your 3DS was not able to find <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">boot.firm</code> on your SD card. It was able to find <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">boot.firm</code> on internal memory, but the file is corrupted.</li>
|
||
<li><strong>Red</strong>: Your 3DS was able to find <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">boot.firm</code> on both your SD card and on internal memory, but both files are corrupted.</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
|
||
<p>You can get a new <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">boot.firm</code> file by downloading the <a href="https://github.com/LumaTeam/Luma3DS/releases/latest">latest release of Luma3DS</a>, extracting it, and placing <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">boot.firm</code> on the root of your SD card. If your <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">boot.firm</code> file is consistently being detected as corrupted, you may want to check your SD card for errors (<a href="h2testw-(windows)">Windows</a>, <a href="f3-(linux)">Linux</a>, or <a href="f3xswift-(mac)">macOS</a>). Also, note that the 3DS tends to have issues with files extracted using WinRAR.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>If you hear a “popping sound”, potentially accompanied with the backlight turning on for a split second, there is a hardware issue with your device (such as a disconnected backlight cable). You may be able to get your device to boot by holding it at certain angles.</p>

||
|
||
<ol>
|
||
<li>Power off your device, remove the SD card, re-insert it, then power on your device.</li>
|
||
<li>Power off your device, eject the game cartridge if inserted, power on your device, then wait up to ten minutes. If your device boots within ten minutes, the issue has been fixed and is unlikely to reoccur</li>
|
||
<li>Rename the <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">Nintendo 3DS</code> folder on your SD card to <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">Nintendo 3DS_BACKUP</code>, then attempt to boot. If your device successfully boots, there is some issue within your <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">Nintendo 3DS</code> folder. Try clearing HOME Menu extdata:
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>Navigate to <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">/Nintendo 3DS/<ID0>/<ID1>/extdata/00000000/</code>
|
||
+ Delete the corresponding folder for your 3DS region:
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li><strong>EUR Region</strong>: <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">00000098</code></li>
|
||
<li><strong>JPN Region</strong>: <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">00000082</code></li>
|
||
<li><strong>USA Region</strong>: <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">0000008f</code></li>
|
||
<li><strong>CHN Region</strong>: <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">000000A1</code></li>
|
||
<li><strong>KOR Region</strong>: <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">000000A9</code></li>
|
||
<li><strong>TWN Region</strong>: <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">000000B1</code></li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>Try booting into recovery mode and updating your system:
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>Power off your device</li>
|
||
<li>Hold (Left Shoulder) + (Right Shoulder) + (D-Pad Up) + (A)</li>
|
||
<li>Power on your device</li>
|
||
<li>If you were successful, the device will boot to an “update your system” screen</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>Follow the <a href="ctrtransfer">CTRTransfer</a> guide</li>

<p>Your Luma3DS version is outdated. Download the latest release of <a href="https://github.com/LumaTeam/Luma3DS/releases/latest">Luma3DS</a> and place <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">boot.firm</code> on the root of your SD card, replacing any existing file.

<summary><u>"Unable to mount CTRNAND or load the CTRNAND FIRM. Please use an external one."</u></summary>
|
||
<p>There are a number of reasons as to why this could be happening. In any case, this error can usually be fixed by following the <a href="ctrtransfer">CTRTransfer</a> guide.</p>

<p>ARM11 exception handlers are disabled, or custom firmware is not installed. Try enabling ARM11 exception handlers:</p>
|
||
<ul>
|

<li>Power off your device</li>
|
||
<li>Hold (Select)</li>
|

<summary><u>HOME Menu is missing installed applications</u></summary>
|
||
|
||
<p>This could be caused by various reasons, but most likely because your SD card is not being read by the system.
|
||
You can check if your SD is being read by holding SELECT on boot and checking the yellow text on the bottom screen; if it says “Booted from CTRNAND via B9S”, then your device is booting from the internal memory and not from the SD card.
|
||
If this is the case, attempt the steps below, which are listed from easiest to hardest:</p>
|
||
<ol>
|
||
<li>Power off your device, remove the SD card, re-insert it, then power on your device</li>
|
||
<li>Power off your device, remove the SD card, insert it on your PC, download the latest release of <a href="https://github.com/LumaTeam/Luma3DS/releases/latest">Luma3DS</a>, extract <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">boot.firm</code> from the <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">Luma3DS.zip</code> and place it on the root of your SD card (replacing any existing file)</li>
|
||
<li>Power off your device, remove the SD card, insert it on your PC and reformat your SD card according to your computer’s operating system: <a href="formatting-sd-(windows)">Windows</a>, <a href="formatting-sd-(mac)">macOS</a>, <a href="formatting-sd-(linux)">Linux</a> <em>(this will wipe your SD card data)</em></li>
|
||
<li>Test your SD card for errors by following the guide according to your computer’s operating system: <a href="h2testw-(windows)">Windows</a>, <a href="f3-(linux)">Linux</a>, <a href="f3xswift-(mac)">macOS</a>. If your SD card is marked as faulty, then you will have to replace your SD card</li>
