Hacking 3DS Hack: "We hacked it"

[sightlight]

plus in this case kernel controls cpu and gpu directly, I think.

Oh, why thank you! (:

Right, of cooooourse, how silly of me.
Time to disable spotpass software downloads and sending of system info on my spare 3DS.
On my main 3DS XL though, is disable spotpass software downloads going to stop me from getting other spotpass notifications in general? I don't want to lose that.

If the 3ds connects to the net and sees an update it, regardless of spotpass settings, will:

1. Lock out other update attempts until the "seen" one is installed.
2. Download the update.
(word is that the wiiu does this as well)

The only certain way to prevent this is to leave the wifi switch off.

What is Kernel anyway?

The software that runs the hardware. An OS basically.

crack the OS open. overwrite.

Well that's a bitch. That's what my spare 3DS is for at least.
Depending how things roll out, I for the most part intend to keep my main system the way it is, for legitimate usage.

I'm sorry but I don't have time to read though 52 pages and was wondering if their was any progress on the 3ds hacking beyond the message "we hacked it"

[07:51:56] <@neimod> full control of the 3ds in kernel mode (arm9 & arm11) from an unmodified 3ds :]
[07:53:03] <EdTheNerd> HHNNNNGGGGG
[07:53:05] <@neimod> the sky is the limit!
[07:53:17] <EdTheNerd> Gib romz plox
[07:53:50] <@neimod> in theory it's possible
[07:53:52] <EdTheNerd> Now then, make it do somethig cool, while displaying GBA TEMP BLOWS somewhere on the screen
[07:54:04] <EdTheNerd> Then enjoy the show
[07:54:36] <EdTheNerd> "neimod: in theory it's possible"
[07:55:02] <EdTheNerd> T-10 seconds before gbatemp quotes that and pisses itself like an excited dog
[07:55:59] <jse> nice work neimod
[07:56:02] <jse> congrats
[07:57:34] <@neimod> unfortunately, we are elitist bastards who never share anything, so kiss that warez loader goodbye
[07:58:01] <EdTheNerd> So not to try to pry to much info here, but is this something you need a specific game/app for?
[07:58:31] <EdTheNerd> Should i by buying all of the eshop now?
[07:58:35] <@neimod> it's based on a specific card-based game
[07:58:39] <EdTheNerd> Nice
[07:58:58] <EdTheNerd> How patchable would you say this is?
[07:59:06] <@neimod> very easily
[07:59:12] <EdTheNerd>
[07:59:41] <EdTheNerd> Still, amazeing work as always
[07:59:46] <EdTheNerd> Congrats!
[08:00:10] <@yellows8> SD version can be used too but ofc one has to run code first for that.
[08:00:19] <EdTheNerd> Now take careof that pesky region lock!
[08:00:33] <EdTheNerd> Could such a thing be posible with this now?
[08:01:55] <@neimod> yes, with full kernel control anything is possible

Your best bet is to just check the 3dbrew recent changes page.
http://www.3dbrew.org/wiki/Special:RecentChanges

Here's the most interesting of recent developments, running an unsigned code that generates 3DS notifications.

I want the hack. I have starwars 3

Are you sure that isn't on a dev 3DS?

 

[RupeeClock]

You know I have no idea. Seems unlikely since that is a 3DS XL system however.

Oh, I couldn't tell because there's no light in the picture. Yeah, AFAIK there aren't dev XL units

That page has a few pictures on it, older iterations of notification testing so that's worth keeping in mind.
First one makes it perfectly clear it's a 3DS XL.

 

[sightlight]

what will we code when this hack is released?

I thought the same but nukeboy (of all people) corrected me.

That chat log seems a little too good to be true. Any proof that it's even real?

Ah, so it's not as big of a deal as it maybe stands to be then?
It would be good if xCution clarified if that was performed on a dev unit or not.

That sort of dialog is hard to fake. Neimod sounds like neimod in that exchange. It is possible to be a fake though, we'll await more pics to put our minds at ease.

But really, I don't think it is fake given the deluge of kernel-related updates on 3dbrew in the last couple days.

 

[CropUpAnywhere]

You wouldn't fake someone as cunty as EdTheNerd.
