'''ntrboot''' allows <code>.firm</code> payloads to run entirely independent from the console's firmware, so it can be used to fix all software issues short of a locked NAND. However, it can also cause the same issues if used incorrectly - be careful to get things right the first time, as the instructions may be harder to follow after a failed attempt. | '''ntrboot''' allows <code>.firm</code> payloads to run entirely independent from the console's firmware, so it can be used to fix all software issues short of a locked NAND.

{{info|text=If you are a power user, you may wish to always load [[3DS:GodMode9|GodMode9]] as the default <code>boot.firm</code> on your flashcart.
