Lumabug is a poor term for an issue that occurs due to the fact that we change the real time clock during the modding process. | Lumabug is a poor term for an issue that occurs due to the fact that we change the real time clock during the modding process. | ||
The 3DS has two clocks - the real time clock(RTC), starting at 01-01-2000 and ticking up, normally never set, and the HOME menu clock, set as a constant offset from the real time clock. During the hacking process, we set the real time clock to the real time, and set the offset to 0. However, some parts of the system use the real time clock. One of these is the date of your last earned gamecoin. When you earn a gamecoin for the first time after hacking your system, the system thinks that it is the first time you've earned one in 22 years. For some reason, when it has to go through such a large date range, it takes several minutes to do it. This causes the system to need several minutes to boot. | The 3DS has two clocks - the real time clock(RTC), starting at 01-01-2000 and ticking up, normally never set, and the HOME menu clock, set as a constant offset from the real time clock.
