==Required Reading==
This page lists possible causes and fixes of Luma3DS exception screens. They are not applicable to every situation, but cover most common known issues.
==Reading a Luma3DS exception screen==
A Luma3DS exception has four (or five, in a few cases) different parts to it that help in finding its cause, as follows:
[[File:Luma3DS_exception.png|center]]
* '''Processor:''' What part of the system is causing the exception. The two processors are:
**'''Arm9:''' The 'security processor' of the system. These exceptions usually result from errors in NAND data or hardware faults in either the 3DS or its SD card.
**'''Arm11:''' The 'userland' of the system. These exceptions have numerous causes but are often related to broken software or user data.
* '''Exception type:''' How the system is causing the exception. These categories are often too broad to be helpful, but three of them are more precise:
**'''data abort''': Oftentimes related to a broken mod or broken HOME Menu data. Occasionally related to custom firmware data being broken.
**'''prefetch abort (svcBreak)''': Oftentimes an issue with data on the NAND, even when Arm11. Can also happen when launching an out-of-region game.
**'''undefined instruction''': Usually either a broken piece of software (if not on boot) or outdated <code>boot.firm</code> (if on boot).
*'''Fault status:''' Why the system is causing the exception. Normally not helpful except for developers.
*'''Current process:''' Where the error is coming from in the system. Often the most helpful part of the exception. Some examples of processes are as follows:
**'''fs''': The filesystem, i.e. either the SD card or the NAND.
**'''menu''': Data that is opened either as a part of the HOME Menu or at the same time as it.
**'''loader''': The service that opens apps, meaning the app you last tried to open has an issue.
**'''nwm''': Networking services, almost always WiFi.
**'''ns''': The <u>N</u>intendo User Interface <u>S</u>hell, which handles all apps/processes in 3DS mode.
*'''R0''': Usually just internal data that's not worth reading. There are two notable exceptions, however:
**'''Arm11 loader exception''': If R0's contents start with a C or D, R0 is an error code. This code usually gives the exact cause of the issue.
**'''Arm11 pm exception''': If R0's contents are <code>E0E01BF5</code>, <code>boot.firm</code> is guaranteed to be too outdated to work.

It's the main primary exploit used on the [https://3ds.hacks.guide/ main guide], unSAFE_MODE and BB3('''B'''anner'''b'''omb'''3''')+Fredtool both use it.

Required Reading

Bannerbomb3 is an exploit for the DSiWare Management Menu, compatible with system versions 11.16 and lower for all regions excluding the iQue 3DS since it doesn't have that menu. The main developer is zoogie.

It's the main primary exploit used on the main guide, unSAFE_MODE and BB3(Bannerbomb3)+Fredtool both use it. It can be used to prepare the secondary exploits unSAFE_MODE or menuhax67, both made by the legend zoogie. This page covers preparing menuhax67 to access the Homebrew Launcher since accessing the Homebrew Launcher from Bannerbomb3 directly is not possible. On the next page you will find out how to access the Homebrew Launcher with menuhax67. Note that with a crashing DSiWare Management Menu, this method won't work.

The instructions described here only work with EUR/USA/JPN/KOR, if you want to use Taiwan for some odd reason, no you don't want that, use the normal guide instead to install custom firmware.

What you need

  • The latest version of Luma3DS (the Luma3DS .zip file)
  • The latest version of Bannerbomb3 (the Release .zip file)
  • Your movable.sed file from completing Seedminer
  • The latest version of menuhax67 (the menuhax67 .zip file)

Instructions

Section I - Prep Work

  1. Insert the SD card of your target 3DS in your computer
  2. Copy boot.firm and boot.3dsx from the Luma3DS .zip to the root of your SD card
    • The root of the SD card refers to the initial directory on your SD card where you can see the Nintendo 3DS folder, but are not inside of it
  3. Copy the Launcher.dat for your region/version from the Release .zip to the root of your SD card
  4. Copy the bb3.bin from the Release .zip to the root of your SD card

Section II - Bannerbomb3 Prep

Section II, Part I - F00D43D5.bin generation

  1. Open the BannerBomb3 multitool Injector website on your computer
  2. Upload your movable.sed using the “Choose File” option
  3. Click “Build and Download”

Section II, Part II - F00D43D5.bin placement

  1. Navigate to Nintendo 3DS -> <ID0> -> <ID1> on your SD card
    • The <ID0> will be the same one that you used in Seedminer
    • The <ID1> is a 32 character long folder inside of the <ID0>
  2. Create a folder named Nintendo DSiWare inside of the <ID1>
    • If you already had the folder and there are any existing DSiWare backup files (<8-character-id>.bin) inside, copy them to your PC and then remove them from your SD card
  3. Copy the F00D43D5.bin file from DSIWARE_EXPLOIT.zip to the Nintendo DSiWare

Section III - Bannerbomb3

  1. Reinsert your SD card into your device
  2. Power on your device
  3. Launch System Settings on your device
  4. Navigate to Data Management -> DSiWare -> SD Card
  5. Select Install *HAX

Continue to menuhax67
