Waitress_Tsubame Posted September 16, 2015 Posted September 16, 2015 Uhm... I said so before no o-o?You can change the firmware version when starting youtube by tapping here I tried to do what you told me... but instead of having a drop-down list, it just automatically goes straight to the red-blue-& black screen with some codes in white before going to the Homebrew page. So yeah pressing it even before automatically going to Homebrew does nothing Do I have to delete & re-download YouTube? I dunno if using a 9.9 Tubehax firmware while on 10.1 system firmware will back-up/restore my save files incorrectly/incompletely or something... Just paranoid I guess.
KaleoOmega Posted September 16, 2015 Posted September 16, 2015 Waitress_Tsubame, maybe you can try this method: https://twitter.com/smealum/status/643874942849818624 @smea: "for people having trouble changing firmware for tubehax : hold START until it crashes, then try again."

Thanks, that's all I need BTW here's something to be paranoid about too: http://gbatemp.net/threads/nintendo-closing-rom-hacking-and-speedrunning-channels.397021/ But I guess Tubehax isn't Rom Hacking, right?

Nope, Heck you cannot even install Roms at all with TubeHax because we lack a kernel level exploit.
goldensun87 Posted October 1, 2015 Posted October 1, 2015 People might wanna check out Smealum's Twitter, more entry points have been found.
Waitress_Tsubame Posted October 14, 2015 Posted October 14, 2015 BTW, just went to e-shop now, and saw IronFall back again, still free. But I haven't tested it... it might be patched against Ironhax. Hopefully someone will confirm if the recent Ironhax works on the new Ironfall.

KaleoOmega Posted October 15, 2015 Posted October 15, 2015 And now, TubeHax is somehow patched too. There's a new update for the Youtube app on the eShop, and even if you try to launch the Youtube app without updating, the system won't allow you to enter the Homebrew Channel. Some kind of DNS/IP check, perhaps? Considering there's a big maintenance on next Monday, for all online services on Nintendo systems, looks like a new system update is iminent too. For the time being, about TubeHax users, guess the best options are HomeMenuHax and BrowserHax.
KaleoOmega Posted October 15, 2015 Posted October 15, 2015 I guess the chips are going down If I remember correctly, Waitress_Tsubame, you're a TubeHax user, right? I suggest you to install BrowserHax, and then, ThemeHax ASAP (so you don't need to access internet, or changing DNS). There's a good tutorial on GBATemp -> http://gbatemp.net/threads/tutorial-the-homebrew-launcher-and-custom-themes-all-in-one-noobs-guide.395652/
Waitress_Tsubame Posted October 15, 2015 Posted October 15, 2015 I'm trying to do BrowserHax now, but it seems to not work I dunno if I used the latest boot.3dsx... do you know where can I find it? Or do I need some extra files to be inserted to my SD card? Because I think the instructions are confusing & incomplete for a starter like me: https://gbatemp.net/threads/yellows8s-browserhax-thread.398132/
Favna Posted October 15, 2015 Posted October 15, 2015 Try this guide instead. https://gbatemp.net/threads/tutorial-the-homebrew-launcher-and-custom-themes-all-in-one-noobs-guide.395652/ and may I also advice HBL-Grid? It.. Pretty much replaces any old boot.3dsx you had so you're sure to have the best and latest. Just trust me on that It should be on page 1 or 2 of gbatemp, OP is mashers (donkey kong icon)
Waitress_Tsubame Posted October 20, 2015 Posted October 20, 2015 And there's another update for the 3DS. Does this one block all homebrew?
hacks Posted October 20, 2015 Posted October 20, 2015 well it blocks theme hax and browser hax but if you have the old version of ironfall or oothax or ninjahax it will still work
KaleoOmega Posted October 20, 2015 Posted October 20, 2015 As hacks said, if you update your 3DS, then ThemeHax and BrowserHax will be blocked as TubeHax. Smealum said on Twitter that Ninjhax (through Cubic Ninja), OoTHax (Ocarina of Time 3D) and IronHax (through IronFall's old version) must work, but he suggested to wait for updated payloads for the last two. So I'm waiting for that - I have IronHax and OoTHax on my 3DSXL, just in case. But for my 2DS, it's game over if I update, since I don't have any other Hax method on it (my OoT copy is digital and stay on the 3DS XL, so I can't share it). So I'll keep it with wifi off.
hacks Posted October 20, 2015 Posted October 20, 2015 from what smea has said the actual exploit it self is very unlikey to be patched but some of the entry points can the ones that cannot be is oothax and ninjahax since they cannot be force updates and can be bought as a physical game. But its a downside to people because if they just found out about this and are on lasted frimware the only way they can install it is though ninjahax
KaleoOmega Posted October 20, 2015 Posted October 20, 2015 By the way, smea confirmed that OotHax/NinjHax/IronHax users can update to 10.2; the 10.1 payloads work without problems. But THemeHax/BrowserHax are really dead. He said the 10.2 payloads will come with Hax 2.5, so likely soon. https://twitter.com/smealum/status/656565816435933184
Waitress_Tsubame Posted October 20, 2015 Posted October 20, 2015 BTW, what's the disadvantage of having a retail of OoT? Is it that you can't edit your other retail carts if you're using a retail OotHax?
KaleoOmega Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 BTW, what's the disadvantage of having a retail of OoT?Is it that you can't edit your other retail carts if you're using a retail OotHax? I think even with a retail version of OoT, you can use it to access the Homebrew Channel, then exchange for other retail cart to use with Save Manager, as an example. It's the same with Cubic Ninja (only Japan had a digital version of this game). The only advantage of the digital version is the convenience of not having to keep switching game cards, in the end.

Ahh I see. Kinda thought previously that you're unable to edit retail carts if you only have retail OoT ^^
KaleoOmega Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 OK, this is really interesting: https://twitter.com/smealum/status/656947650999156736 "if your only reason for updating is eshop access : DONT. not yet anyway. help is on the way for 9.3-10.1 users !" Although I already updated my main unit into 10.2, this is promising. Maybe can extend to 10.2, when a future system update appears
Waitress_Tsubame Posted October 26, 2015 Posted October 26, 2015 Is the latest update also compatible with some Homebrews? Has anyone tested? Smea is working on it: https://twitter.com/smealum But he didn't mention if the Homebrew works with the latest update... Still a bit confused about this.
Kaphotics Posted October 26, 2015 Posted October 26, 2015 latest homebrew is still homebrew, svdt / manager still work.
Waitress_Tsubame Posted October 26, 2015 Posted October 26, 2015 (edited) Tried to re-install Themehax by choosing another theme to uninstall it, & trying to reinstall it via Browserhax, so I can access Homebrew e-Shop (does it only have eShop XML & eShop.smdh but no eShop.3dsx?) ... but when trying to reinstall Themehax, I always get this message: "Invalid HTTP content-size 0x0000a468. Failed to download the actual payload with HTTP: 0xfffffffd. Install failed: 0xfffffffd. Press the START button to exit." Why is this? EDIT: Still the same even if I get the latest Themehax installer & boot.3dsx files. EDIT 2 : Solved... I just got the offline themehax installer. Edited October 27, 2015 by Waitress_Tsubame
goldensun87 Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 Hey guys, so I noticed that the Themehax installer installs a file onto the root of the SD, called menuhax_ropbinpayload.bin. I do not have version 10.2 yet, so can someone with 10.2 confirm if, simply copying the bin file without running the Themehax installer, is enough to install themehax?
