Required Reading

This method only works on versions 11.16.0 and below. This is because Bannerbomb3 was fixed in 11.17.0.

Technical Details

To launch custom code, we exploit a flaw in the DSiWare Data Management window of the Settings application.

To accomplish this, we use your system's encryption key (movable.sed) to build a DSiWare backup that exploits the system.

For a more technical explanation, see here.

Compatibility Notes

These instructions work on USA, Europe, Japan, and Korea region consoles as indicated by the letters U, E, J, or K after the system version.

What You Need

Your movable.sed file from completing Seedminer
The latest version of Bannerbomb3 (the Release_v3.0 .zip file)

Instructions

Section I - Prep Work

Power off your device
Insert your SD card into your computer
Open Bannerbomb3 Injectoron your computer
Upload your movable.sed using the “Choose File” option
Click “Build and Download”
- This will download an exploit DSiWare called F00D43D5.bin inside of a zip archive (BannerBomb3.zip)
Copy bb3.bin from Release_v3.0.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
Navigate to Nintendo 3DS -> <ID0> -> <ID1> on your SD card
- <ID0> is the 32-letter folder name that you copied in Seedminer
- <ID1> is a 32-letter folder inside of the <ID0>
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 remove them from your SD card
Copy the F00D43D5.bin file from BannerBomb3.zip to the Nintendo DSiWare folder

Next steps

At this point, there are a number of processes you may follow. Continue to the next section of the guide based on what you have access to.

Method	Requirements
---	Working shoulder buttons	Working DS mode
Installing menuhax67 (recommended)	Not needed	Not needed(?)
