Technical Details (optional)

To install boot9strap on your device, we derive your device’s unique encryption key. To accomplish this, we use the Homebrew Launcher to launch nimhax and dump the data encryption key (movable.sed) from your device.

For a more technical explanation, see here for information about the nimhax exploit.

What You Need

  • The latest release of nimhax (the nimhax .zip file)

Instructions

Section I - Prep Work

  1. Power off your device
  2. Insert your SD card into your computer
  3. Copy the nimhax folder from the nimhax .zip to the /3ds/ folder on your SD card
  4. Reinsert your SD card into your device
  5. Power on your device

Section II - nimhax

  1. Open the Homebrew Launcher through your method of choice (likely the Internet Browser)
  2. Launch nimhax from the list of homebrew
  3. If the exploit was successful, a movable.sed file will appear on the root of your SD card

Next step: Choose an exploit

Once you have your device’s encryption key (movable.sed), you can use it in conjunction with BannerBomb3, which uses your movable.sed file to take advantage of exploits in the System Settings application.

Frogtool

Once you have your device’s encryption key (movable.sed), you can use it in conjunction with Frogtool, which uses your movable.sed file to inject and take advantage of JPN Flipnote Studio.
While this method is faster, it requires downloading a file with a torrent client. Do not follow this method if you’re unable to use a torrent client.
