Safehax hangs when there's no Game Cartridge inserted.

[cermakondrej]

After successful waithax -> return to HBL and starting safehax, i get blackscreen , confirmed with other 4 people, who have same issues

[lucashpandolfo]

@TiniVi Do you mean PXI_RECV11 has an unexpected value or just PXI is always empty? Does that make any difference anyway? :P

[kaicherry]

You misunderstand @cermakondrej - the older builds were not written for anything but 11.2/n3dsu. It won't help you. Do what they are telling you :)

I recorded the output message using the slow-cam on my phone. It states:

fasthax success!! pm 000000000 Allocating memory reading ARM9 payload reading ARM 11 payload...

And then the screen turns black.

Worked for me on USA n3ds 10.7 svchax. Managed to boot safea9lhinstaller v2.6.7 and install a9lh successfully (had otp.bin not otpless).

[TiniVi]

@lucashpandolfo unexpected value, and the exploit fails. @yzal I can tell that you aren't running my build, but I feel that this still applies. The text is only useful for the duration that it's on the screen. If it gets cleared, that means everything worked properly and the app exited.

[PiclesHavaiano]

I'm all the day long searching for a solution on the web or trying to learn about coding, but i cant succeed at any ( I don't know anything about this ) and it's my first time trying to hack my o3ds 11.1.0-34U following this guide: https://3ds.guide/decrypt9-(homebrew-launcher) hope this gets fixed.

[ghost]

n3dsXL 11.0.0-33U Waithax latest fork (https://github.com/TiniVi/waithax) Safehax latest release (https://github.com/TiniVi/safehax/releases) Homebrew launcher 1.1.1

Tested with Soundhax latest Manenuhax 3.1

And when launch safehax

By the way that of pressing the b to see the text of "debug", almost nor can be appreciated because it happens very fast, stays in "Reading ARM11 payload ..." and it sees a black screen.

The weird thing about this is that I do not have any payload arm11 (arm11.bin). I think the error of this, you already found it "MINOR: Large payloads seem to crash when being copied to 0x23F00000" but do not solve it.

Have you tested Decrypt9WIP? Because I think it's a big payload.

[MuratGHG]

I was running waithax(succesfully) After starting to run safehax,it's just giving me the error message:,PM INIT FAILED". (Old3ds XL 11.0.0-33E,Soundhax Homebrew 1.1.1 )

What should I do now?

[ghost]

@MuratGHG The problem is waithax

https://github.com/TiniVi/waithax

[TiniVi]

@MagicInventor The arm11 payload is stored in the romfs, and if the payload is too large it crashes on "Patching ARM11...". As I've already explained, the text is only useful while the app is running, if it gets cleared that means everything succeeded. The blackscreen is one of 2 issues involving wait loops.

@MuratGHG Make sure the version of waithax you're running is my fork, as safehax depends on svcBackdoor being available. Furthermore, the "PM INIT FAILED!" text seems to imply that your version of waithax did not grant srv access.

[MuratGHG]

@TiniVi So,i used another Version of waithax,now it's giving me a completely black Screen(I was unsing the waithax from 3ds.guide),so if I run waithax again,is it okay?

[ghost]

@TiniVi How long do I have to wait for the payload to run?

[MuratGHG]

@TiniVi And which message would gonna Show up if safehax is finished?

[TiniVi]

@MagicInventor if you mean the one on the sd card, it takes roughly 10 seconds give or take.

@MuratGHG if safehax finishes, it will black screen for a few seconds before running the payload on sd. Or, you'll receive the same issue as the people above and just end up with a blackscreen. I don't really think anyone running waithax should be trying it more than once, though.

[MuratGHG]

@MuratGHG So what should I do now......

[cermakondrej]

wait until its fixed

[PiclesHavaiano]

@TiniVi I tried like 5 times today, is that a problem?

[spicynoodlez]

Tried it 8times with 11.0K n3ds on soundhax and menuhax and failed...

[DaliaAsTrue]

@TiniVi I have Old3DS on 11.2 already a9lh installed, but I want to try this. My process for launch Safehax :

• Launch Soundhax with *2.7 hax
• Launch Fasthax many tries for k11 exploit success
• Launch Safehax and... I have Red color on my bottom screen and a freeze

Hard reboot a console, retry, again, again, again lol It's same issue with other entry point, Steelhax, HBLoader, etc.

[TiniVi]

@PiclesHavaiano Not an issue, I just feel like it's fairly disappointing for the user to wait that long and get a bad result.

Anyone using svchax (and apparently fasthax?), if you could, please try this build, it'd be appreciated.

[DaliaAsTrue]

I tried your build, but same issue, Red color on bottom screen after Fasthax success

[spicynoodlez]

@DaliaAsTrue Did you have a game cartridge inserted?

[ggpq]

n3ds xl 10.3.0-24k menuhax -> svchax -> safehax

result : stop on yellow screen, failed

[spicynoodlez]

@TiniVi There are people who got it worked after inserting a game cartridge in gbatemp

[spicynoodlez]

https://gbatemp.net/threads/safehax-11-1-2-downgrade-without-dsiware.455456/page-47

[ggpq]

Thank you, It works with inserting cartridge.

[drippy3]

Tried with game cart inserted and latest build and it worked, thanks so much.

[spicynoodlez]

What a solution!

[TiniVi]

@spicynoodlez OH. This is something I was able to replicate! It seems when there is no gamecard, arm9 doesn't comply. I'm sure there's a workaround, but for now that's the solution I guess.

[kaicherry]

I can also confirm this for you as well. Definitely need a debug build to see what the system state thinks is different.

[TiniVi]

@spicynoodlez Also, who's the idiot who made the version of this that states "Patching SAFE_MODE ARM9", which is literally impossible without arm9 code execution first.

[MuratGHG]

Were you trying fasthax or waithax?....going to try waithax again....or fasthax...i dón't know...

[DaliaAsTrue]

@spicynoodlez Eh no, I try with cartridge and... same. :( Fasthax success Back to HBL Launch Safehax, red screen immediately (Old 3DS 11.2 Soundhax)

[yzal]

Rofl, i doný own a cartridge, so still not working for me ;)

[TiniVi]

@DaliaAsTrue This issue only seems to occur with fasthax

[alex1s1]

wtf it works thanks!

[DaliaAsTrue]

@TiniVi Yes I think too, just wait(hax? joke) for Fasthax Beta version

[MuratGHG]

Should I run waithax again?

[PiclesHavaiano]

in 26 mins i'll try with slowhax again and with a gamecard inserted

[MuratGHG]

I'm running waithax again right now(With gamecard inserted,gonna update you guys in 1 hour,good luck to everyone else.

[alex1s1]

I'm so stupid it even worked for my with a different 3DS and the only difference was the gamecard.

[lucashpandolfo]

@TiniVi the last build you posted had the same result: yellow screen

[TiniVi]

@lucashpandolfo insert a cartridge

[lucashpandolfo]

Oops, i had a DS catrtidge, with a 3DS one it works

[marra1505]

You guys thing it will work wit a NDS game cartridge?

[spicynoodlez]

@TiniVi I don't know about anything else since I'm not a programmer...

[PiclesHavaiano]

does it matter if i put the gamecard before or after the waithax has finished ? or i just need to put the card before starting the safehax?

[marra1505]

@lucashpandolfo haha tanks

[alex1s1]

@PiclesHavaiano I put it in just before I started safehax and it worked

[Zeffuro]

Confirmed working, used Zoogie's build from forum with fasthax on 11.0.0-33E N3DSXL, worked for me with game in.
