'''Luma3DS''' is a [[custom firmware]]. It is the only one in active development for the 3DS.

==Installation==

This is the main custom firmware when using [[3dsguide:index|3DS Hacks Guide]]. To update, follow the steps on [[3dsguide:restoring-updating-cfw|Restoring / Updating CFW]].

== Features ==
* Automatic patches that remove Nintendo restrictions, such as:
** Region locking, allowing you to run out-of-region cartridges and titles
** Signature checks, allowing homebrew to run from HOME Menu
** The flashcart block list, allowing you to run blocked DS flashcarts
* A "Rosalina menu" accessible from anywhere within 3DS mode with many of its own functions, such as:
** Cheat support
** Plugin loading
** Taking screenshots
** Input redirection
** Blue light filter
* LayeredFS support, allowing you to replace individual game files with modded versions on-the-fly
* FIRM write protection, preventing boot9strap from being overwritten with system updates
** This does not mean that system updates will always be immediately "safe"; from time to time, something changes in the system firmware that requires a Luma3DS update
* A chainloader that can boot <code>.firm</code> payloads located in the <code>/luma/payloads/</code> folder. It is accessible either by holding START on boot or by selecting the "Boot chainloader" option from the Luma3DS configuration menu
** If only one payload is inside the <code>/luma/payloads/</code> folder, running the chainloader will automatically boot that payload
** Before Luma3DS 7.1, <code>.bin</code> payloads were supported instead of <code>.firm</code> payloads
== Usage ==

The Luma3DS repository on GitHub has {{GitHub|LumaTeam/Luma3DS/wiki|its own wiki}}, but some additional information can be found on the following pages:
* {{ml|3DS:Luma3DS/Configuration|Configuration}}
* {{ml|3DS:Luma3DS/PIN lock|PIN lock}}
* {{ml|3DS:Luma3DS/Rosalina|Rosalina}}
* {{ml|3DS:Splash screens|Splash screens}}
