    Homebrew TAD Delivery Tool - Installs TADs on any DSi!

    TAD Delivery Tool (TDT) is a fork of NTM/TMFH that allows you to install TADs on any DSi. TADs are just renamed Wii WADs that are created by the TwlSDK. Most DSiWare prototypes and dev apps are in this format. You normally can't install TADs on retail consoles because they are dev signed and...

    Tutorial Region changing a DSi on NAND

    (iQue cover photo since DS iQue firmwares are kinda my "thing" now lol) This guide will walk you through region changing your DSi. You're essentially "cloning" the firmware and all files from another NAND. :!: This is a very dangerous operation :!: and I do not recommend for most people to try...

    Get DSi serial from CID (or vice versa)

    I'm writing a program that needs both the serial number and console ID for a DSi. Are these completely separate or is there a way to get one from the other? I can ask for both but it would be simpler if only one is required. Thanks.

    Tutorial Install unlaunch on development units (pandas)

    This goes without saying, but BACK UP YOUR NAND FIRST! Backups are especially important with rare hardware like this. For reasons beyond my head, unlaunch will fail to uninstall on dev units. It sounds like it's something to do with exploitable titles blanking out a register and unlaunch not...

    Replace DSi stage 2 bootloader

    I've been trying to get a few prototype stage 2 bootloaders from the gigaleaks (search for *.nand files) to boot. I tried taking the new bootloader and pasting it into the NAND dump starting at 0x200. I just get a white screen on boot. Judging by source code in TwlIPL I can 100% guarantee that...

    Photography on game consoles

    Share any photos you've taken on any game consoles! Fancy cameras are nice, but why spend hundreds of dollars on a camera when you could buy a game console? DSi, 3DS, gameboy, something else? Sure, the cameras aren't exactly good, but they've got a nice aesthetic/feel to them that nothing else...

    Tutorial Install developer firmware on retail 3DS

    Yes, I know, this guide already exists. However, the old guide is horribly out of date and doesn't show how to prepare your own dev firmwares... something relatively important when there are so few retail encrypted firmware archives online. Hopefully this helps anyone still looking to install...

    PC tool to encrypt CIA

    I'm looking for a program I could use to retail encrypt CIAs, preferably one for linux, though at this point I'll take anything :P. Searching online only brings up decryption, so any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

    Hardware Misc 3DS SystemUpdater (dev fw) from 2012 dumped

    A new 3DS SystemUpdater just was dumped by Rezrospect, and it contains a never before seen development firmware! This firmware is dated 2012/06/22 on the home menu, and looking at the DevMenu and Config version strings shows that it is 0.17.49 (r48276), or 4.2.1 as it would be displayed on...

    Modding Wii disk drive to read games burned to DVD-R

    I am curious if a disk drive could be modified to read games burned to disk. This is mainly so I can install the home menu disk on my RVT-R. I figure there's some chance I can swap out the drive for a modded retail one and get that to work. I do not have the option of buying the home menu...

    DS(i) Dev App Documentation

    DS(i) Dev App Documentation Hey everyone! I wrote a website to document some of the DS(i) ROMs that Nintendo used to test, debug, or create the DS(i) consoles. This goes from official SDK programs to leaked factory testing ROMs. I've always been fascinated by Nintendo's super secret programs...

    DS lite Wireless Bricked WiFi Board

    EDIT: I figured out what was wrong. My original backup was also the wrong one which would explain why restoring it did not fix wireless. While not fixable without a backup, this can be prevented when installing. See my post here: https://gbatemp.net/profile-posts/154500/ Recently I've been...

    DSi Browser Exploit Found

    Last night Nathan Farlow released "stylehax", a new exploit for the DSi which uses the web browser. With the DSi web browser being on most DSi consoles, this will greatly benefit users who don't have Flipnote Studio installed and can't load the Memory Pit exploit due to broken cameras. View...

    Can't open RomFS or ExeFS on dev app

    Figured it out! You have to decrypt with this tool (gm9 and other tools don't like this dev encryption) and then you're free to check RomFS and ExeFS all you want. You'll have to re-encrypt to retail if you want to install dev apps however. Original question:
