    Does anyone here have a DSi with ntrboot? I need help testing a region changing guide I'm working on. I think it's safe but I'd like to test before telling people to mess with NAND.

    does the initial region matter? I have two DSis I could use, a North American one and a Japanese one

    Initial region doesn't matter. Just sent you a DM on discord!

    @Nikokaro I think "necromancy" is more fitting. 5 of the assembled consoles were dead when I got them, plus I fixed a bunch of the loose motherboards I have.

    Though you're on to something with slaughtering and innocence. I have bricked and revived each on of these innocent consoles more times that I can count.

    Come on. I'm being generous. I'll do you a favor to free up some space there. Send me the resurrected ones and keep the corpse parts, which you can always use in the future. 😖 😂 🤣

    Hi. My DSi is currently using HWInfo from another console of another region... and it's working pretty well!

    Played around with it more. Better said, I changed my serial number and region on NAND without issues. lol

    Apparently my north american DSi is a japanese panda (VJF***********)
    I wonder how much of a clone I can turn this into.
    I hate retail prototype DSis. Who ever thought that was a good idea. Booooooo! I just want to sign things.

    Pretty much just trying to install a usable menu on an autoboot proto DSi. ofc HWInfo has to be blank and everything has to be retail to make getting a new HWInfo impossible. AAAAAAAA

    I got a good bike lock finally! Can't wait to get around town on my bike. I don't like cars so I moved to the bus, but the price is absolute shit for what you get. Costs more than toronto for buses that take 30-45 minutes and barely take you anywhere. Plus drivers that will skip you for no reason or not stop when you pull the cord.

    Biking is gonna be great.

    Sadly (thankfully?) outside of toronto. We've got the shittiest bike lanes ever and the WORST drivers. Out bike lanes are strips of paint to mark the outside of the road that's full of potholes and roadside garbage.

    Buuuuuut, the smaller roads I use to get to downtown are pretty great. Few cars and decent-ish kinda maybe bike lanes? Upgraded from paint to occasional bits of concrete that cars don't like driving over much lol

    Thank you [city name] for your great bike infrastructure. Also that little island is a bus stop... on the other side of a 4 lane highway pretending to be a stroad... with no nearby crossings. Gotta love this place so much.

    There's an old saying in Brazil that we tell to someone who gets to 18th birthday:

    "Congratulations, now you can go to jail":rofl2:

    Kinda sad there was no interest here. Though it might have been for the best. See how awful "news" sites got all the information wrong and didn't do even the slightest bit of research. Even if there's good information here, other sites will pick it up and twist it like always.

    The DSi's product.log log tell us exactly what went on the in factory from the start of a DSi's life. The screenshot here is a log viewer from TWL EVA.

    We can see the names of the specific tests run (TP_CAL, AGING, FINAL), what they were used for (the L in version means LINE), and when they were run.

    Looking at the whole log can break down the process:

    BOARD: Unknown.
    TP_CAL: Touch calibration
    AGING: General set of tests (CPU, inputs, config, etc) - unconfirmed
    FINAL: General set of tests
    MIC: Mic testing
    CAMERA: Camera testing
    WRFU: Wireless testing
    IMPORT: Installs the firmware and additional apps
    NCHECK: Confirms all other tests set up the DSi properly

    IMPORT is cool. You can see it installed the 1.4.2U firmware, but then also installed the bundled DSiWare (photo clock, brain age, DSi + internet, etc).

    The snack that smiles back, Ballsack!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
