3DS:Alternate Exploits/Installing boot9strap (SSLoth-Browser): Difference between revisions

Revision as of 17:31, 10 October 2022

Required Reading

SSLoth allows users on version 11.13.0 and below to bypass the browser version check, allowing use of new-browserhax or old-browserhax, which can then be used in conjunction with universal-otherapp.

If you have updated your device to your current version using a cartridge, your Internet Browser will be inaccessible. If this is the case, you will need to update your device to the latest version through System Settings and then follow the method for the latest version.

What You Need

The latest release of universal-otherapp
The latest release of SafeB9SInstaller (direct download)
The latest release of boot9strap (direct download)
The latest release of Luma3DS (the Luma3DS .zip file)

Instructions

Section I - Prep Work

Power off your device
Insert your SD card into your computer
Copy otherapp.bin to the root of your SD card and rename it to arm11code.bin
- If you do not see the .bin extension, do not add it to the end of the filename
Copy boot.firm and boot.3dsx from the Luma3DS .zip to the root of your SD card
Create a folder named boot9strap on the root of your SD card
Copy boot9strap.firm and boot9strap.firm.sha from the boot9strap .zip to the /boot9strap/ folder on your SD card
Copy SafeB9SInstaller.bin from the SafeB9SInstaller .zip to the root of your SD card
Reinsert your SD card into your device
Power on your device

Section II - SSLoth

Launch the System Settings application
Navigate to Internet Settings -> Connection Settings
Click on your network connection slot and navigate to Change Settings -> Next Page (right arrow) -> Proxy Settings
Set "Proxy Settings" to "Yes", then click Detailed Setup
Set the Proxy Server to 192.9.234.11, and the Port to 8080
Click OK, then click Save
When prompted, click "Test" to perform the connection test
- The test should succeed
Power off your device

Section III - Launching SafeB9SInstaller

Power on your device
On the HOME Menu, press the Left and Right shoulder buttons together to open the camera
- If you are unable to open the camera, open the Internet Browser and manually type the URL instead (https://zoogie.github.io/web/nbhax/)
Tap the QR code button and scan this QR code
- If the browser prompts an update, it is possible that your ISP is rerouting DNS changes. Try another internet connection, or update your console to the latest version and follow Seedminer.
If the exploit was successful, you will have booted into SafeB9SInstaller

Section IV - Installing boot9strap

When prompted, input the key combo given on the top screen to install boot9strap
Once it is complete, press (A) to reboot your device
Your device should have rebooted into the Luma3DS configuration menu
- If your device shuts down when you try to power it on, ensure that you have copied boot.firm from the Luma3DS .zip to the root of your SD card
Press (Start) to save and reboot
- If you get an error, just continue to the next section

At this point, your console will boot to Luma3DS by default.

Luma3DS does not look any different from the normal HOME Menu. If your console has booted into the HOME Menu, it is running custom firmware.
On the next page, you will install useful homebrew applications to complete your setup.

Section VI - Restoring default DNS

Launch the System Settings application
Navigate to Internet Settings -> Connection Settings
Click on your network connection slot and navigate to Change Settings -> Next Page (right arrow) -> Proxy Settings
Set "Proxy Settings" to "No"
Click OK, then click Save
When prompted, click "Test" to perform the connection test
- The test should succeed
Power off your device

-==Technical Details==
+==Required Reading==
-In order to exploit the Browser application, we need to bypass the browser version check, which is designed to disallow the use of the browser without updating to the latest system version.
-A public proxy server is available, which, with the help of the SSLoth exploit, can bypass this check.
+SSLoth allows users on version 11.13.0 and below to bypass the browser version check, allowing use of new-browserhax or old-browserhax, which can then be used in conjunction with universal-otherapp.
-Once the bypass is active, an exploit webpage will be accessible which will do the rest of the job.
-For technical details on the exploits that you will be using on this page, see here (SSLoth) and here (universal-otherapp).

-==Compatibility Notes==
-SSLoth allows users on version 11.13.0 and below to bypass the browser version check, allowing the use of new-browserhax or old-browserhax (compatible with versions 11.4.0 through 11.13.0 in all regions), which can then be used in conjunction with universal-otherapp.
