CakesFW is homebrew software for the Nintendo 3DS that assists with patching the system's NATIVE_FIRM, thereby allowing it to perform unsanctioned operations.


CakesFW ======= This is homebrew software for the Nintendo 3DS™ that assists with patching the system's NATIVE\_FIRM, thereby allowing it to perform unsanctioned operations. Building -------- A total of three (3) components are required: Python 3.x with PyYAML, devkitARM, and armips. Ensure that the required cross compilers (arm-none-eabi-\*), armips, and python3 directories are included in your $PATH system variable. Once the environment is configured, run the `make` command. Thanks ------ * b1|1s for the POC based on a decompilation of rxTools, porting it to spider and a lot of help when creating this. He's the guy who reverse-engineered all the info I needed for this; * Normmatt for the emuNAND patch; * TiniVi for screen de-init; * Roxas75 for the font and firmlaunchax on MSET (rxTools); * 3dbrew for info; * Apache Thunder for being a fearless test-kanninchen; * Gateway for some offsets.
'''Note:''' The project was updated by [https://github.com/Ammako/CakesForeveryWan Ammako] with added support for 11.14 firm.
 
==Features==
* SPIDER 4.x-9.2, MSET 4.x and 6.x and Ninjhax 1/2 (up to firmware 9.2) support for old 3ds/xl/2ds.
* MSET 4.x and Ninjhax 1/2 (up to firmware 9.2) support for new 3ds/xl.
* Options to boot to sysNAND and emuNAND up to 10.7.
* Emunand supports redNAND and GW emuNANDs.
* Sig patches.
* Patches are contained in "cakes". The .cake format is a simple format that bundles FIRM patches, and tells the patcher what those patches need to work.
* Autoboot.
* Supports multiple NATIVE_FIRM versions (see [https://gbatemp.net/threads/release-cakesfw.391200/post-5562376 this] for an explanation).
 
==Changelog==
'''v202'''
* Works with the latest NATIVE_FIRM version: 11.4.0
* Works with Boot9Strap 1.3
* New .cake format, supporting fancy things such as 3ds_injector (current implementation only patches regionfree)
* Support for AGB and TWL patching
* A handful of additional patches can be downloaded from https://mid-kid.root.sx/cakes. The sources are in mid-kid/icing mid-kid/3ds_injector and mid-kid/lgy_cakes.
** 3ds_injector.cake: Regionfree
** agb_signatures.cake, twl_signatures.cake: Run unsigned code in AGB firm.
** agb_bootscreen.cake: Enable GBA boot screen in AGB.
** twl_signatures.cake: Run unsigned code in TWL firm.
** twl_cartridges.cake: Allow all blocked flashcards to boot.
** svcBackdoor.cake: Re-implement svcBackdoor, required for NTR CFW.
 
'''v138'''
* Support patching AGB_FIRM (no, you can not play GBA games yet, as there are no cakes for it yet and no reboot patches to boot into AGB_FIRM).
* Old and New 3DS support for 10.4 NATIVE_FIRM.
* (Hopefully) fixed CETK decryption (doesn't work on arm9loaderhax).
* Multi emuNAND support (you can even give your emuNANDs names).
* Fixed some bugs, such as the 7.x NCCH crypto patches, making sure the firmware is saved after enabling autoboot, and the N3DS 3D bug on boot was fixed.
* NATIVE_FIRM partitions updating protection patches were added, for people who want to keep their partitions intact on for example arm9loaderhax (don't enable this if you plan on updating/downgrading sysNAND without arm9loaderhax as it's sure to cause a brick).
* The CakesFW version is reported in the menu now, you can also check the NATIVE_FIRM version.
* arm9loaderhax support was added. Either extract the arm9loaderhax.bin from Cakes.dat at offset 0x12000 by using dd if=Cakes.dat of=arm9loaderhax.bin bs=512 skip=144 or whatever other method, or load it with a boot manager.
 
'''v108'''
* Added New 3DS 9.6+ emuNAND support (needs slot0x11key96.bin).
* Separated 7.x NCCH patches. You only need those if you're booting an emuNAND version >=7.0 with a sysNAND version <7.0.
* Debugging: Add force-saving of patched_firm.bin in options. The only reason this should be necessary to use is to debug patches without having to enable autoboot.
 
'''v102'''
* Bugfix release (only one character).
* This fixes the emunand.cake for n3ds, closing issue [https://github.com/mid-kid/CakesForeveryWan/issues/11 #11].
 
'''v101'''
* Bugfix release.
* Thanks to @173210, CakeBrah's bootrate has been fixed on hax 2.5.
 
'''v100'''
* The only change since latest release (99) is an updated emunand.cake, with cleaner code. It'll just work just as regular.
