Is it true or fake that the 3ds is hacked??

It's most likely (~85-90% chance) true that it's hacked, but so far, the hack is worthless for us end-users. Maybe in a few months, something usuable will arise - most likely some easy text-based homebrew and primitive ROM loaders from/for pirates, nothing like the homebrew channel for at least a year, or how long it takes to explore the system's commands and properties. No devlib means sloooooooow progress.

Yes it's hacked, kernel mode control has been achieved BUT only the hackers (not the leechers which make up most of this forum) have access to it.
I wonder if there truly is a hypervisor to deal with in order to do that... If you have heard anything about that, PM please, starting to get paranoid XD

Oh Gosh, just looked at this. Looks like quite a few Members are starting to register on there XD http://www.3dbrew.org/wiki/Special:Log/newusers

Is that mean you they can play 3ds roms on their 3ds.
They technically could have they knew/ programmed it to do so. However, Im pretty sure this is not on the top of there list by a long shot, since they are still learning on how exactly the 3DS works itself.

No. Word is, they're trying to enable home brew without enabling piracy. Do not get your hopes up.

If something does come out eventually, you can find out if piracy is possible then. Meanwhile, buy the games you want and download whatever you want on already hacked consoles.

A message by Yellows8 (he wrote it in the 3dsdev IRC):
[01:44] <@yellows8> managed to partially decrypt a savegame using the new CTR-period, however it seems the period is >0x1000-bytes.

Some minutes later, the following was posted:
[01:59] <balrog_> so wouldn't it be worth figuring out how the savefile is encrypted?
[02:00] <@yellows8> that's exactly what I'm doing, just haven't managed to figure out what the exact CTR-period is.

If there manage to find out how savefile's are encrypted, does that mean exploit with out needing the game, as it a save game exploit.

Could be wrong, but it would mean they could exploit newer games (not game-less exploits, as you say). Nintendo beefed up its savegame security on firmwares >= 2.2.0-4

edit: They already know how < 2.2.0-4 firm. saves are encrypted.

Where do you want to copy your edited save file on? To the SD card? The SD save file key is console unique.

No yellows8 has PARTIALLY decrypted it and the CTR-Period is invalid if i am right so it could take a while for them to decrypt the new savedata method

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah

    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze

    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double

    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
