question for hiyacfw/rocketlauncher... can you install .nds on the home screen? if so then what will the procedure be like to do so (will it be like wad manager for Wii or like a custom booter to load a very specific nds file with srloader or any other external ds loader)

Are you saying... The ability to install a .nds onto the internal memory and have it popup on the homescreen?

I'm in class right now. What are you saying?
I'm saying that the homebrew and the icon are packed in a .TIA (TWL Installable Archive) file that you can install into the CFW NAND on SD. Then, it loads the .nds homebrew directly from the CFW NAND when you start the installed .TIA from the menu.

Except that it's not actually a .nds file anymore, the .nds actually has a .app extension now, but you can still load the .app into NO$GBA as if you were opening a normal .nds file.

Ah. I see. Sooo... An app on the home screen when started runs a decrypted nand that is on the sdcard and that decrypted nand starts or is used to start a .nds?
No, the CFW loads the decrypted NAND and that is used to load all the apps from the NAND then run a CFWified DSi Menu. Kind of like 3DS Luma3DS. All the apps from the NAND are loaded into the CFW and...yeah.
I'm getting really tired now. :wacko:

  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
