    Decrypting save files with 3ds-save-tool

    Sorry let me clarify a bit. I have the complete Nintendo 3DS folder but I was under the impression I could only use that to obtain my moveable.sed, which I would need for the keys to decrypt my save file. Anyway I have the complete Nintendo 3DS folder. I am using linux to run 3ds-save-tool and...

    Decrypting save files with 3ds-save-tool

    So I have the SD card to my old homebrewed 2DS which I don't have anymore, but am trying to get the save file to one of my games I had on there. Obviously it needs to be decrypted from the Nintendo 3DS folder, which has turned out to be a nightmare. I downloaded 3ds-save-tool, and I was able to...

    Hardware Best Way to Play Consoles Through Laptop Screen and Speakers

    There are plenty of ways you can connect to your laptop screen. I didn't say it had to directly be connected to the laptop's VGA port, it could use some sort of converter that inputs audio and video through the USB. An example could be like in this video (one of the decade old ones I was talking...

    Hardware Best Way to Play Consoles Through Laptop Screen and Speakers

    So I'm trying to find the best way to display my Wii on my laptop screen and speakers, but I don't know what the best and most updated way to do that is. I guess I just need something that can convert the Wii's standard AV output (using composite video) to display on my laptop's screen, and play...

    Hardware Can I hack newly bought 2DS/3DS?

    This is not a joke post, you clearly misunderstood my question. I understand the advantage of flashcarts is that it is much easier to do. I meant is there any advantage to flashcarts software wise? Every post or video I come across now has people saying you are practically retarded if you do the...

    Hardware Original 3DS Will Not Charge

    I do have a multimeter, in fact a very high quality one; that is how I checked the continuity. :) I’m actually really into electrical stuff as a hobby, so it might sound stupid that I couldn’t solve that charger issue myself. I had initially thought the two copper plates on the outside of the...

    Hardware Original 3DS Will Not Charge

    Actually no, I dont.. there’s continuity between the one in red on the right, but not on the one in green on the left. EDIT: oh my god, I bridged the connections and it is actually charging. all these years and that was it! Thanks so much :)

    Hardware Original 3DS Will Not Charge

    Aside from recent issues I’ve had with my new 2ds xl, I’ve also been having an issue with my original 3ds, hopefully far more simpler. About 3 years ago, my 3ds just decided to stop charging, the orange light would just not appear. Plugging it in does nothing (yes the charger works), wiggling it...

    Hardware Can I hack newly bought 2DS/3DS?

    So do people not manually hardmod their systems by soldering anymore simply because it is too risky? Let's say I didn't want to spend any money buying a flashcart.. could I still just do the old way of opening the system and soldering, or is there some advantage to using flashcarts?

    Hardware Can anyone identify this ribbon cable? New 2DS XL

    Oh, alright. Well that sucks, but I’ve ordered another 2ds xl that had a broken screen which I plan to just swap motherboards with. Thanks anyway for all the help!

    Hardware Can anyone identify this ribbon cable? New 2DS XL

    When you say hard bricked, is it something that can be fixed? Like replacing a fuse that's shot? I'd also like to add that, as I mentioned before, I can boot without the camera attached at all, that's how I got it to turn on the first time -- by not connecting it at all. The blue light wouldn't...

    Hardware Can anyone identify this ribbon cable? New 2DS XL

    Yes, it is the front camera. I should have specified that. But of all ribbon cables, that is the one that caused me problems.

    Hardware Can anyone identify this ribbon cable? New 2DS XL

    #3 is the ribbon cable. When I removed it, the system turned on. But that was before I disassembled it again; now that’s not having an effect. But still, the blue light wouldn’t appear at all until that one was removed. Also yes, when I plug in the charger the orange light will stay lit. I also...
