To install boot9strap on your device, we derive your device's unique encryption key. To accomplish this, we use a tool called Seedminer to calculate the data encryption key (movable.sed) for your device.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For information on how Seedminer works, see [this presentation](https://zoogie.github.io/web/34⅕c3).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This method uses a powerful graphics card to perform the calculations needed. A volunteer-run website is used for the purpose of assisting you with this method.

### Section I - Updating the System
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In this section, you will update your system to the latest version, which is necessary for Seedminer.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Update your device by going to System Settings, then "Other Settings", then going all the way to the right and using "System Update"
|
||
|
|
+ The updater may display a message saying "Your system is up to date" instead of updating. This is normal if you are already up to date; continue to the next section
|
||
|
|
+ If this gives you an error, set both your DNS settings and Proxy settings to "Auto"
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Section II - Prep Work
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In this section, you will get the necessary details from your 3DS that are required to figure out your device's encryption key.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Before following this section:
|
||
|
|
+ Ensure that you have turned on your console with the SD card inserted at least once to generate the necessary data
|
||
|
|
+ Ensure that your console is connected to the Internet (you should see a blue "Internet" indicator on the top-left corner of the HOME screen)
|
||
|
|

|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Power off your device
|
||
|
|
1. Insert your SD card into your computer
|
||
|
|
1. Navigate to the `Nintendo 3DS` folder on your SD card
|
||
|
|
1. Copy the name of the 32-letter folder you see directly inside Nintendo 3DS
|
||
|
|
+ This 32-letter name is system-specific and will be different for each console
|
||
|
|
+ If you see multiple 32-letter folders, follow [these instructions](troubleshooting#seedminer)
|
||
|
|
+ You can ignore the `private` folder if you have it
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
![]({{ "/images/screenshots/seedminer/id0-example.png" | absolute_url }})
|
||
|
|
{: .notice--info}
|
||
|
|
1. Paste your 32-letter folder name into [a document](/images/screenshots/seedminer/text-document.png) you can reference later
|
||
|
|
+ This folder is known as your "ID0". Take note of this as this guide will refer to it as such later
|
||
|
|
1. Power on your device
|
||
|
|
+ Your SD card does not need to be inserted at this point
|
||
|
|
1. Go to your Friend List (the [orange Face Icon]({{ "/images/friend-list-icon.png" | absolute_url }}) in the top row of your HOME Menu)
|
||
|
|
+ If you receive an error and are kicked out of the menu, you either must create a new Mii or your device cannot connect to Nintendo's servers (due to a ban or connection issues)
|
||
|
|
1. Find your Mii profile, then find the "Friend Code" field on the top screen
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Section III - Seedminer
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In this section, you will use the Bruteforce Movable website to retrieve your device's encryption key in the form of `movable.sed`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Open [Bruteforce Movable](https://seedminer.hacks.guide/) on your computer
|
||
|
|
+ If the site isn't working, join [Nintendo Homebrew on Discord](https://discord.gg/MWxPgEp) and ask (in English) for someone there to assist you
|
||
|
|
1. Enter your device's Friend Code (with no spaces or dashes) into the "Your friend code" field
|
||
|
|
1. Paste your device's 32 character long folder name into the "Your ID0" field
|
||
|
|
+ Do not attempt to enter the ID0 manually, as it is easy to make a mistake. Ensure the ID0 is entered correctly by copying and pasting it from where you saved it in the previous section
|
||
|
|
1. Select "Go"
|
||
|
|
+ If the site immediately goes to step 4, the website has already correctly processed your bruteforce request. You can download your `movable.sed` file and continue to the next section. You do not need to (re-)add the bot
|
||
|
|
1. Use the ["Register Friend" button](/images/screenshots/seedminer/register-friend.png) on your device to add the bot's friend code as given by the website
|
||
|
|
+ If prompted, the name that you give to the friend does not matter
|
||
|
|
1. Wait for the site to update
|
||
|
|
+ If it does not, wait a few minutes before refreshing the page once
|
||
|
|
1. Once the site processes your information, the site will continue to `Step 2: Bruteforce` automatically
|
||
|
|
1. Wait for the remainder of the process to complete
|
||
|
|
+ This is usually fast (1-5 minutes)
|
||
|
|
+ During this process, the bot you added may not show up on your 3DS. As long as the website updates, this is not an issue
|
||
|
|
+ If you are still waiting after half an hour, join [Nintendo Homebrew on Discord](https://discord.gg/MWxPgEp) and ask (in English) for someone there to assist you
|
||
|
|
1. When the process is completed, download your `movable.sed` file from the site
|
||
|
|
+ Keep this file as you will need it in the upcoming page
|
||
|
|
1. Power off your device
