3DS:Game plugins/NTR

Botman: /* Installing BootNTRSelector */

{{shortcut|3DS:PLG}}
NTR is a generally outdated plugin loader. However, it is still necessary to load older plugins in the <code>.plg</code> format. The only way to load NTR on modern CFW setups is using BootNTRSelector.

== Installing BootNTRSelector ==

<tabber>

|-|Universal-Updater=

=== What you need ===
* [[3DS:Universal-Updater|Universal-Updater]]

=== Installation ===
# Search for <code>BootNTRSelector</code> in Universal Updater
# Get <code>BootNTRSelector.cia</code>
#* If you are on an old 3DS and want to use plugins with extended memory mode games (such as seventh generation Pokémon games and Super Smash Bros.), also get <code>BootNTRSelector_Mode3.cia</code> as you will need to use it for such games
# Search for <code>Luma3DS</code> in Universal Updater, and download the <code>boot.firm</code> file
# Reboot your system
# In the Luma configuration screen, select any options you need, then press START
#* Hint: If you don't know what the options are, you don't need any

|-|Manually=

=== What you need ===
* [https://github.com/Nanquitas/BootNTR/releases The latest release of BootNTRSelector] (BootNTRSelector.cia)
** If you are on an old 3DS and want to use plugins with extended memory mode games (such as seventh generation Pokémon games and Super Smash Bros.), also get <code>BootNTRSelector_Mode3.cia</code> as you will need to use it for such games
* [https://github.com/LumaTeam/Luma3DS/releases/latest The latest release of Luma3DS]
** Luma3DS v13.0 or higher is required to use BootNTR Selector (or 3GX loader for older versions)

=== Installation ===
* Copy the BootNTRSelector .cia file(s) to your SD card
* Copy <code>boot.firm</code> from the Luma3DS<code>.zip</code> to the root of the SD card, replacing the <code>boot.firm</code> already there
* Insert the SD card into your system and power it on
* On the Luma Configuration screen, enable any options that you need, then press Start
** Hint: If you don't know what the options are, you don't need them
* Install the BootNTRSelector <code>.cia</code> file using FBI

</tabber>

== Using NTR plugins ==

=== Plugin location ===
If you're using the default configuration, NTR will look for plugins in the <code>plugin</code> folder on the root of your SD card. Each plugin must be inside a folder named with a game's Title ID. Inside the folder, place your .plg file.
* You can get the game's title ID from [http://3dsdb.com/ here] (cartridges), [https://hax0kartik.github.io/3dsdb/ here] (digital games), or from the <code>FBI -> Titles</code> menu. For example, Taiko no Tatsujin: Dokodon! Mystery Adventure's title ID is <code>0004000000190E00</code>, so if you wanted to use a plugin for that game, you'd create a folder named <code>0004000000190E00</code>
* The creator of the plugin may have already created a folder with the correct name for you, in which case you can just copy the title ID folder from the plugin's zip/rar/7z archive to the <code>plugin</code> folder
* If you want the plugin to run for ''all'' games (for example, for an FPS overlay), create a folder called <code>game</code> inside the <code>plugin</code> folder and place your plugin inside

An example directory for a plugin affecting one game would be <code>plugin</code> -> <code>0004000000190E00</code> -> <code>plugin.plg</code>.

An example directory for a plugin affecting all games would be <code>plugin</code> -> <code>game</code> -> <code>plugin.plg</code>.

=== Launching NTR ===
# Open the BootNTRSelector app on your home menu
# Select 3.6 on the version selection screen
#* Even if the plugin you are using says that it requires another version, try using 3.6 instead. Only use another version if 3.6 will not work
# Launch a game that you have a plugin for. You should see a green flash upon loading the game - that means that the plugin is active
# Look at the information on the plugin's webpage/README for usage instructions - usage will differ for each plugin

=== Usage notes ===
* You cannot play more than one game with NTR without rebooting the system. When you are done playing a game, power off the system
* You must launch NTR every time you wish to use a plugin
* Certain applets, such as the New 3DS's internet browser, may crash if you try to open them while NTR is active

Botman: whoops

{{shortcut|3DS:KBU}}
If a custom keyboard is installed and custom firmware is removed from the console, System Settings will be inaccessible and you will not be able to launch the keyboard. This is obviously detrimental to the overall functioning of your 3DS and should be fixed as soon as possible.

=Unbricking a 3DS with a custom keyboard installed =
{{info|text=If Internet access isn't currently set up, you can set up an Internet connection from Safe Mode as the keyboard will still work there (hold {{Key press|L|R|Up|A}} on boot, then follow its prompts).}}

==Methods that require additional hardware==
The following methods require extra hardware but is the recommended way of recovering from this as they should work 100% of the time regardless of system version:
*[[3dsguide:ntrboot|ntrboot]] (Requires a compatible flashcard)
*[[3dsguide:installing-boot9strap-(kartdlphax)|kartdlphax]] (Requires a second console and a copy of Mario Kart 7, both the same region as your console)
*[[3DS:Alternate Exploits/3dsropxploitinjector (basehaxx)|basehaxx]] (Requires a second console and a copy of Pokémon Omega Ruby or Pokémon Alpha Sapphire, on cartridge.)

==Methods that don't require seedminer==
The following methods do not require seedminer and can be followed like normal:
*[[3dsguide:installing-boot9strap-(super-skaterhax).html|super-skaterhax]] (Your console date needs to be correct. if its not, there is no reason to follow super-skaterhax.)

3DS:Custom badges

2024-06-17T11:29:56Z

Botman: /* Instructions */

{{hatnote|1=This article only details how to install custom badges with [[3DS:Anemone3DS|Anemone3DS]]. For installation instructions using GTYB, see [[3DS:GYTB|this page]] instead.}}
Custom badges are PNG images that can be attached to folders or placed on the HOME Menu grid, to give it a bit more personality. Badges may also be made into shortcuts for system applications, some of which don't normally have a home icon such as Nintendo Network ID Settings. Custom badges are built on the same framework as the official badges that could be earned through Nintendo Badge Arcade.

==Creating Custom badges==
===Badge requirements===
: '''Badges'''
* Custom badges must be <code>.png</code>(s) whose dimensions are divisible by 64 pixels
* [https://themeplaza.art/badges Theme Plaza] has a large collection of such badge images
* The custom badge's name is set to whatever the filename of the badge is
* Images larger than 64x64 will be split into separate badges (eg. 128x128 will be split into four badges)
** Badges split in this way will share the same name or app shortcut
** The largest a single image can be is 384 x 768 pixels (6 x 12 badges, for a maximum for 72 badges in a file). If a PNG is larger than this, Anemone3DS will not attempt to install it and instead skip it.
* The most badges you can install at a time is 1,000. If you attempt to install more than 1,000 badges, some badges won't be installed.
: '''Set icons'''
* Set icons must be <code>.png</code>(s) with a dimension of 48x48 pixels

===Sets===
Sets allow badges to be organized into separate groups. To create a set, first make a new folder within <code>sd:/badges/</code>, with the folder name being the name of your set. Badges placed in a set subfolder will be installed as part of that set. Sets may also be given a set icon by placing a 48x48 pixel PNG into the set's folder with the name <code>_seticon.png</code>; if no <code>_seticon.png</code> exists, the set will be given a default icon of the Homebrew Launcher logo. Badges not placed in a set folder will instead be installed as part of a default set called "Other Badges" with a set icon of the Anemone3DS logo.

===Shortcuts===
Custom badges can be made into shortcuts to launch system applications; a list of compatible titles can be found [[3dbrew:Title_list#00040010_-_System_Applications|here]]. To create a badge shortcut, rename the badge so the TIDLow of the system app is between the first and second period of the file name, like so: <code>BadgeName.<TIDLow>.png</code>. For example, a file named <code>settings.00021000.png</code> would create a badge named settings that launches USA System Settings (mset). Badges made into shortcuts will display the banner of the application they launch, rather than being a pin; applications without a banner will display a default banner instead.

==Instructions==
{{Info|Badge installation requires Anemone3DS v3.0.0 or higher.}}
{{info|Anemone3DS is installed as part of [[3dsguide:finalizing-setup|Finalizing Setup]] on 3DS Hacks Guide.}}
===What you need===
* The latest release of [[3DS:Anemone3DS|Anemone3DS]] installed on your console
* Badge <code>.png</code> files
* (Optional) <code>_seticon.png</code>

=== Section I - Dumping Badges ===
{{Critical| Installing badges overwrites existing badge data. Make sure to follow this section to dump your existing badges. If you have no existing badges you can skip this section.}}
# Power on your console
# Launch '''Anemone3DS''' from the HOME Menu, or from the Homebrew Launcher
# Press {{B|X}}, or tap the extra menu touchscreen icon, to open the extra menu
# Press {{B|R}} to open the dumping menu
# Press {{B|D-Pad Left}} to dump all installed badges
# Badges will be dumped to the <code>sd:/3ds/Anemone3DS/BadgeBackups/</code> folder on your SD card

===Section II - Prep work===
# Power off your console
# Insert your SD card into your computer
# Copy badge <code>.png</code> files to the <code>Badges</code> folder on the root of your SD card
#* (Optional) Create a subfolder in <code>sd:/Badges/</code> and rename it to the name of a set
#* (Optional) Copy badge <code>.png</code> files to the set subfolder that you want in the set
#* (Optional) If you have a <code>_seticon.png</code>, copy it to the set subfolder
#* (Optional) Repeat for additional sets
# Insert your SD card into your console

A sample directory structure is shown below:
{{Tree list}}
* {{Tree icon|d}} Badges
** {{Tree icon|d}} Set1
*** {{Tree icon|f}} _seticon.png
*** {{Tree icon|f}} badge1.png
** {{Tree icon|d}} Set2
*** {{Tree icon|f}} badge1.png
**{{Tree icon|f}} badge1.png
{{Tree list/end}}

===Section III - Installing Badges===
# Power on your console
# Launch '''Anemone3DS''' from the HOME Menu, or from the Homebrew Launcher
# Press {{B|X}}, or tap on the extra menu touchscreen icon, to open the extra menu
# Press {{B|D-Pad Right}} or tap on the Badge Install touchscreen icon
# Wait for badges to install, then press {{B|START}} to exit '''Anemone3DS'''

===Section IV - Decorate with Badges===
# Tap on HOME Menu Settings in the top left of the HOME Menu
# Tap on "'''Decorate with Badges'''"
# Drag your custom badges from the top of the touchscreen onto your HOME Menu
#* To switch between sets, press {{B|L}} and {{B|R}} or swipe on the top left set icon
#* To attach badges to folders, tap on the top right wrench icon and select "'''Attach Badge to Folder'''"
# Tap on the <code>X</code> or press the {{B|HOME}},{{B|B}}, or {{B|X}} buttons to exit the badge menu

== Troubleshooting ==

=== Ext Data Locked ===
This error means the 3DS Home Menu is currently attempting to read from the Badge Ext Data, and Anemone3DS can't open it. If you run into this error, press the home button to return to the home menu, wait for a few seconds, and then returning to Anemone3DS (without having fully closed it), and try installing badges again.

3DS:FTP

2024-06-14T23:02:58Z

Botman: we hope and pray that this shit isnt fucked (fuck tabbers)

'''FTP''' (File Transfer Protocol) is a way to transfer files wirelessly through a local network.

== What You Need ==
'''On your computer''':
<ul>
<li>A working FTP client
{{FTP clients}}</li>
</ul>

'''On your 3DS''':

#* Host name/IP address: The IP address displayed on the top screen of the 3DS (e.g. 192.168.0.67)
#** This is a local IP address, so you don't need to censor it if you need assistance
#* Port number: The number after the colon in the IP address displayed on the top screen of the 3DS (usually 5000)
#** If you don't see this option, instead type <code>(ip):(port)</code> into the host name/IP address box, e.g. <code>192.168.0.67:5000</code>
#* Username/password: If you see a checkbox for "Anonymous login", then enable it; otherwise, just leave it blank
# Click "Login" or "Connect"
#* If prompted to enter a username or password, press ENTER to leave it blank

== FAQ ==

=== Why not microSD Management? ===

While New 3DS models can do a similar method through microSD Management, said method has a number of downsides:
* microSD Management does not exist on Old 3DS models.
* microSD Management uses a protocol (SMBv1) that is only supported by Windows.
** Additionally, SMBv1 is heavily outdated, [https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/storage-at-microsoft/stop-using-smb1/ba-p/425858 now a major security risk], and disabled by default on modern installations of Windows.
* microSD Management can cause random file corruption in use.

Wii U:Moving from Tiramisu to Aroma

2024-04-15T20:34:07Z

Botman: /* Required Reading */

==Required Reading==
Tiramisu has been replaced by Aroma, therefore making it outdated. This will show you how to move from Tiramisu to Aroma.

Aroma is also an environment like Tiramisu, but offers much more features, so they are launched the same way.

In order to use services like Pretendo, you will need Aroma for this, as they have ended support for Tiramisu.

==Instructions==
===Section I: Prep Work===
# First, follow [[wiiuguide:aroma/sd-preparation|SD Preparation]].
# Once that is done, since you already have the PayloadLoader installed, you can go directly to [[wiiuguide:aroma/finalizing-setup|Finalizing Setup]].
# Download whatever apps or plugins you think you may need that will benefit you.
# Once you have everything downloaded and setup properly, You may move your SD back to your console and boot it up.
===Section II: Environment Replacement===
# Launch the EnvironmentLoader.
#*If you autobooted Tiramisu, hold X on boot to get there.
#*If you didn't autoboot Tiramisu, hold X while Launching health and Safety.
#*
# Clear Tiramisu as the default environment by pressing X.
# Select Aroma and Press Y to set it as the new default, then press A.
# The Boot Selector will show. Press Y on the Wii U Menu as previously done and press A.
# Once you finally boot into the Wii U Menu, you will see apps on your home screen, and have successfully switched to Aroma. Congrats!
#*Although Tiramisu is outdated, you don't need to delete it. If you still decide to use Tiramisu in the future, for legacy homebrew purposes, just launch the EnvironmentLoader again to select it.

3DS:TWLFix/Manual

2024-03-22T11:39:51Z

Botman: Sence it is a warning, i feel like we can change this back to just RR instead of RRDNI

==Required Reading==
If [[3DS:TWLFix|TWLFix]] and [[3DS:TWLFix/Alternate|CompleteDSiWareUninstaller]] both do not work, you may have better luck forcibly deleting the DS mode system titles and then reinstalling copies of them that are known to not be corrupt.

{{warning|Do not try this guide unless '''both''' TWLFix and CompleteDSIWareUninstaller fail '''even after a system update'''.
<br>There is some evidence that this guide might block your console from redownloading TWL Version Data from official sources, in which case you would have to use the CIA linked here if its DS mode broke a second time.}}

==Instructions==
=== Section I - Prep Work ===

In this section, you will download known clean versions of the DS titles and prepare them for installation.

# Using a torrent client such as qBitTorrent, Deluge, or Transmission, download the four following <code>.cia</code> files from their magnet links
#* TWL Version Data: <code>magnet:?xt=urn:btih:4A106681407FEDE5DE95CC8BDA635432481F6B5D</code>
#* DS Internet: <code>magnet:?xt=urn:btih:2B9DF8496922F2546DFB0B01220068CE53C19D3D</code>
#* DS Download Play: <code>magnet:?xt=urn:btih:B581D3C5D98F5E621FDDFC1CE5704BB45BF05A8C</code>
#* Nintendo DS Cart Whitelist: <code>magnet:?xt=urn:btih:7B90D506AD032A581A00035616EAA17A68C48EFF</code>
# Depending on whether your 3DS is a new model or an old, download '''one''' of these two <code>.cia</code>s from its magnet link
#* New 3DS TWL_FIRM: <code>magnet:?xt=urn:btih:EAB8558C97B18B1F329A2BFCC3C899B84C082A27</code>
#* Old 3DS TWL_FIRM: <code>magnet:?xt=urn:btih:17511EADB6E6F3FF22D04F90644E37BD2D96CA43</code>
#* If you are not sure of your console's model, check whether it has two shoulder buttons or four - a new model has four buttons ({{B|L|ZL|ZR|R}}), and an old model has two {{B|L|R}}
# Move any files currently inside the folder <code>sd:/cias</code> onto your PC, then copy the five downloaded <code>.cia</code>s into that folder
# Insert your SD into your 3DS

=== Section II - Manual TWLFix ===

In this section, you will delete the DS titles and then install the known clean versions.

# Power on, open FBI, and go into '''Titles'''
# Once all titles have loaded in, go to the bottom where titles colored in purple text appear
# <code>Delete title and ticket</code> for the following titles:
#* <code>0004800F484E4C41</code>
#* <code>0004800F484E4841</code>
#* <code>DS Download Play</code>
#* <code>Nintendo DSi™</code>
#* New 3DS only: <code>0004013820000102</code>
#* Old 3DS only: <code>0004013800000102</code>
# Back out of '''Titles''', go into '''SDCARD''', and go into the <code>cias</code> folder
# Choose <code><nowiki><current directory></nowiki></code> and then <code>Install all titles</code>
#* If any of the titles give an error during installation, skip them and attempt to install them individually. If they still give an error, ask for help and state the error code
# Back out of '''SDCARD''', go into '''Titles''', and scroll to the bottom. Ensure all of the titles you deleted in Step 3 are now present. If they are not, restart again from Step 3
# Exit FBI, then power off your console and power on again
# Attempt to open either a DS game, DSiWare, or Download Play -> Nintendo DS
#* If DS mode still does not work, follow the [[3DS:DSU|DS mode unbrick]] page

Botman: unneeded step

{{shortcut|3DS:DSU}}
The DS mode firmware used for backwards compatibility in a 3DS console can be made unusuable by several different things. This page lists the full usual set of troubleshooting steps to fix this issue.

The troubleshooting below should always be started at the first section. The troubleshooting will direct you to other sections as necessary.

{{info|This page assumes you have already tried [[3DS:TWLFix|TWLFix]] and both its [[3DS:TWLFix/Alternate|alternate]] and [[3DS:TWLFix/Manual|manual]] variants without success. If you have not tried any of those pages already, do them now before starting the below instructions.}}

__TOC__

== CFW Check ==
First, we will make sure your console has working CFW. This will help as it allows access to several useful homebrew tools, including [[3DS:GodMode9|GodMode9]].

# Power on your console while holding the {{B|SELECT}} button
#* If your console boots to the [[3DS:Luma3DS/Configuration|Luma3DS configuration menu]], press {{B|START}} to save, then continue
#* If your console doesn't boot to the Luma3DS configuration menu, do the same without the SD card inserted
#** If your console does boot to the Luma3DS configuration menu, your SD card wasn't inserted correctly, re-insert it and try again
#** If your console doesn't boot to the Luma3DS configuration menu, you likely do not have Luma installed, and should [[3dsguide:index|install CFW before continuing]] as all but one of the fixes on this page require it
#*** To make sure of this, hold {{Key press|SELECT|START|X|POWER}} for seven seconds while the console is powered off, then power off again, hold {{B|HOME}}, and then press {{B|POWER}} - if the notification LED [[3DS:boot9strap#LED_Status_Codes|lit up a color]] or the [[3DS:fastboot3DS|fastboot3DS]] menu appears, then you have working CFW but something is interfering with Luma. Join the Nintendo Homebrew Discord for more advanced help
#*** If you do not have CFW and do not want to install it, you can still follow [[3DS:TWLFix|TWLFix]] if you can obtain homebrew access through [[3dsguide:index|a method on the guide]]

== Troubleshooting ==

=== Section I - Prep Work ===

# Follow [[3dsguide:restoring-updating-cfw.html|Restoring / Updating CFW]], then the "Updating GodMode9" and "Creating a NAND backup" sections on [[3DS:GodMode9/Usage]]
#* Keep the NAND backup in your <code>gm9/out</code> folder if you have room, as it will be used if you need to do Section IV

=== Section II - Bizarre Edge Cases ===

# Power off your console and insert the SD card into your computer
# Open the file <code>sd:/luma/config.ini</code> in a text editor
# Scroll down until you find the variable <code>disable_arm11_exception_handlers</code>
#* This variable should be set to 0; if it is not, set it to 0 now
# Exit the text editor, remove the SD card, and reinsert the SD card into your console
# Power on your console
# Open [[3DS:FBI|'''FBI''']], then go into '''Remote Install''' -> '''Scan QR code'''
# Check whether the camera works, then press {{B|X}} and similarly check the other camera
#* If either camera causes an error or does not produce any output, your camera is likely bricked - this is known to cause DS mode issues. Disconnect the camera's cable ribbon and/or replace the camera entirely to fix this
# Power off the console, then power on again while holding {{B|SELECT}} to access the [[3DS:Luma3DS/Configuration|Luma3DS configuration menu]]
# If any of the following settings are enabled, disable them:
#* <code>Enable loading external FIRMs and modules</code>
#* <code>Enable game patching</code>
#* <code>Enable custom upscaling filters for DSi</code>
#* <code>Allow Left+Right / Up+Down combos for DSi</code>
# Either press {{B|START}} or select <code>Save and exit</code>, then attempt to open something that uses DS mode
#* If this works, look for and delete faulty patches in <code>sd:/luma/sysmodules</code>, <code>sd:/luma/titles</code>, and <code>sd:/luma/twl_upscaling_filter.bin</code> before turning any of the above settings back on
#* If DS mode still crashes and the camera works, continue to Section III

=== Section III - NVRAM Analysis ===

==== Section III, Part I - Corruption Check ====

# Open '''System Settings''' -> '''Other Settings''' -> '''Profile''' -> '''Nintendo DS Profile'''
#* If this crashes, continue to Part II of this section
#* If this does not crash, skip to Section IV

==== Section III, Part II - Restoration ====

# Power off your console and insert the SD card into your computer
# Download both {{GitHub|zoogie/Stuff/raw/master/3DS_NVRAMtool/3DS_NVRAMtool.3dsx|NVRAMtool.3dsx}} and [https://i.n7.pm/nvram nvram.bin]
# Place both of these files in <code>sd:/3ds</code>
# Reinsert the SD card into your console
# Power on your console
# Open the '''Homebrew Launcher''', then open ''3DS_NRAMtool''
# Once the app loads, press {{B|B}}, wait one second, and then press {{B|X}}
# Press {{B|START}}, then exit out of the '''Homebrew Launcher'''
# Reboot your console and then attempt to open the '''Nintendo DS Profile''' again
#* If the DS Profile still crashes, continue to Part III of this section
#* If the DS Profile does not crash, attempt to open something that uses DS mode (the DS Profile only uses NVRAM, not DS mode)
#** If DS mode still crashes, skip to Section IV

==== Section III, Part III - ctrcheck ====

# Follow the instructions on [[3DS:Ctrcheck|the ctrcheck page]]
# If you did not get <code>Critical: NVRAM is inaccessible</code>, then reboot after trying all other applicable fixes
# Attempt to open something that uses DS mode
#* If this still crashes, continue to Section IV

=== Section IV - TinyFormat ===

# Power off your console and insert the SD card into your computer
# If your NAND backup from Section I is not already on your SD card, copy it to <code>gm9/out</code> now
# Download {{GitHub|javimadgit/TinyFormat/releases/latest|TinyFormat}} (the <code>.zip</code> that is '''not''' the source code) and extract it
# Copy <code>TinyFormat.3dsx</code> from <code>3ds/TinyFormat</code> inside the zip, and paste it into <code>sd:/3ds</code>
# Reinsert the SD card into your console
# Power on your console
# Go into the '''Homebrew Launcher''', then open <code>TinyFormat.3dsx</code>
# Press {{B|Y}} to start the format
# your console will eventually load to initial setup - this is intended
# Go through initial setup until you reach the HOME Menu
#* If you cannot complete initial setup for some reason, you may be able to bypass it using {{GitHub|zoogie/2DSaver|2DSaver}}
# Attempt to open something that uses DS mode
#* If this still crashes, [[3DS:GodMode9/Usage#Restoring a NAND backup|restore your NAND backup]] and then continue to Section V

=== Section V - 3ds_hw_test ===
# Power off your console and insert the SD card into your computer
# Download [[Media:3ds_hw_test.zip|3ds_hw_test.zip]] and extract <code>3ds_hw_test.firm</code> from it
# Place this file in <code>sd:/luma/payloads</code> on the SD card
# Reinsert the SD card into your console
# Hold {{B|START}}, and while holding {{B|START}} power on the console
# Select <code>3ds_hw_test</code>
# Press any button to start the test
# The test will take up to 45 minutes - when it's done, press any button to turn it off
# The file <code>HWTEST.LOG</code> will have been created on the SD root - open this file in a text editor
#* '''GodMode9''' will work for this
# Scroll down to the end and look at the number of errors
#* If this number is more than 0, your console's RAM is dying and you need to replace the motherboard

If the above number of errors is zero, you have now exhausted all of the conventional fixes. Go to [https://discord.gg/C29hYvh the Nintendo Homebrew Discord], ask for help, and mention that you've tried this page already.

{{shortcut|3DS:M9F|3ds:MSET9F}}
==Required Reading==
If you are experiencing the "System Settings loading infinitely after reinserting the SD card" error or Mii Maker doesn't appear in the Extra Data menu when trying to install MSET9 using the [[3dsguide:installing-boot9strap-(mset9-cli)#section-ii---mset9|MSET9 CLI]] or [[3dsguide:installing-boot9strap-(mset9-play-store)#section-ii---mset9|MSET9 Play Store]] guides, this page will help you resolve that issue by either swapping to a spare SD card or backing up and then formatting your original SD card.

All of your original games and saves will be kept intact if you follow the steps properly.

Before starting this guide, please ensure the following two things:
# You have chosen the correct model type (New vs. Old) and system version in the MSET9 setup.
#* New models have four shoulder buttons ({{B|L|ZL|ZR|R}}) and the C-Stick directly above the Y button - Old models have two shoulder buttons ({{B|L|R}}) and no C-Stick.
# You injected MSET9 in Section II Step 10, not any earlier.
#* If System Settings is stuck because you injected too early (such as in Section II Step 5), just follow the instructions for removing MSET9 and then restart from the beginning of Section II. You do not have to swap out or reformat your SD card in this case.

== Instructions ==

Follow these steps first to remove MSET9:

<tabber>

|-|PC (CLI)=

<span>

# Power off your console
#* If the console is infinitely loading on the extra data screen, forcibly power it off by holding down the power button for 15 seconds
# Insert your SD card into your PC
# Run the MSET9 script:
#*'''Windows:''' Double-click <code>mset9.bat</code>
#*'''macOS:''' Double-click <code>mset9.command</code> and enter your password if prompted
#*'''Linux:''' Open a Terminal window, <code>cd</code> to the root of your SD card, then type <code>python3 mset9.py</code> and press {{B|ENTER}}
# Choose your model and version, enter <code>3</code> to remove MSET9, and then press {{B|ENTER}} to close the script
# Proceed to the '''Spare SD Card''' tab below if you have a second SD card on hand, or to '''Original SD Card''' if you only have your current SD

</span>

|-|Play Store=

<span>

# Power off your console
#* If the console is infinitely loading on the extra data screen, forcibly power it off by holding down the power button for 15 seconds
# Insert your SD card into your phone/tablet/computer
# Run the '''MSET9 Installer''' application
# If <code>Remove MSET9</code> is not highlighted:
#* Tap on <code>Select "Nintendo 3DS" Folder</code>, then navigate to <code>sd:/Nintendo 3DS</code> folder on your SD card
#* Once inside the <code>Nintendo 3DS</code> folder, tap on '''Use this folder''', then '''Allow''' if asked
# Tap <code>Remove MSET9</code>
# Proceed to the '''Play Store SD''' tab below

</span>

</tabber>

==If you got a real mess and want to clean like the pros, then you’ve got to see this!
Hi, Billy Mays here with Zorbeez, the most absorbent material I’ve ever used. It has the
strength and the muscle to pick up and hold over 20 ounces of liquid.
Look at this! Zorbeez attracts liquid like a magnet! It doesn’t matter if it’s coffee, soda,
even red wine!
Watch how this powerful vacuum action pulls and cleans the stain from out of the carpet
– just that quick.
The secret is in the X27 fiber technology, making Zorbeez over 27 times more absorbent
than cotton! Forget towels that just drip. And, unlike sponges that smell, Zorbeez is odorfree and leaves a path of clean.
Now, you could clean and dry and never leave anything behind! You’ll be amazed as just
how much they absorb – and they’re machine washable.
Dry your entire car, even your dog! Use any cleaner for streak-free windows.
An average family uses up to two rolls of paper towels every week. That’s cash in the
trash. Save money and even help save the environment.
You get two jumbo Zorbeez plus three extra large for only $14.99. But call right now and
I’ll send you another five Zorbeez absolutely free! That’s 10 Zorbeez for only $14.99!
And as a special bonus, we’ll also include our Micromen Microfiber Duster free. It’s
great for blinds, plants, glass, and more – and attracts just like a magnet!
That’s a $60-value all for only $14.99. And here’s the best part: We’ll send you a set of
Zorbeez free whenever you need them for life. Just pay shipping and processing. But you
got to call now.==

3DS:Checkpoint/Troubleshooting

2024-01-27T17:35:09Z

Botman: Move to 3ds, Exploit style page

==Required Reading==
There is a bug in Checkpoint where save backups do not appear in Checkpoint. This issue can be resolved by these checks:
==Troubleshooting==
=== Make sure that the saves are in the correct place. ===
All Checkpoint backups should be located in \3ds\Checkpoint\saves\{some hex code then the name of the app}/{The name of the backup. This does not matter as long as it uses legal characters}. Make a backup of save of the app you are trying to restore even if the path name is correct. (You won't use this, it just creates the correct folder diagram for the backups), then move the file(s) that contains the save into the created folder and replace the new backup that I stated we won't be using.

=== Make sure that the save isn't corrupted. ===
If you look at the save in notepad, it will look corrupted even if it's not. If the above step didn't work then there is a good chance your backup is corrupted.

==== If any more help is needed, join the [https://discord.gg/nintendohomebrew Nintendo Homebrew Discord Server] for advanced help. ====
