To install boot9strap on your console, we derive your console’s unique encryption key. To accomplish this, we use a tool called Seedminer to calculate the data encryption key (movable.sed) for your console.

Once we have movable.sed, we can edit the SD card data of the game Mario Kart 7 to install menuhax67, which will allow us to get Homebrew Launcher access.

Once we have Homebrew Launcher access, we can run nimdsphax to install boot9strap.

See here for information about Kartminer7, here for information about menuhax67, and here for information about nimdsphax.

你需要准备点啥？

  • A physical or digital copy of Mario Kart 7 updated to the latest version (v1.2)

  • A Windows computer
  • Your movable.sed file from completing Seedminer
  • The latest release of Kartminer7
  • 最新版本的 boot9strap（直链）
  • 最新版本的 SafeB9SInstaller（直链）
  • The latest release of nimdsphax (direct download)
  • The latest release of menuhax67
  • 最新版本的 Luma3DS（下载 Luma3DS .zip 文件）

Section I - Preparing Mario Kart 7 data

In this section, you will have the 3DS generate some data in Mario Kart 7 that will be used to install the exploit in a later section.

  1. Reinsert your SD card into your console
  2. Open Mario Kart 7
  3. Tap the “Mario Kart Channel” button on the bottom
  4. If you are prompted to, hit “Next” and “OK” to all of the prompts that you see

  6. Press the (Home) button to suspend Mario Kart 7
  7. Disable wireless connections by flicking the wireless switch on the side of the console or by navigating to HOME Menu Settings (top left) -> Wireless Communication -> OFF
  8. 将主机关机

Section II - SD Card Prep Work

  1. 将你的 SD 卡插入到电脑
  2. 解压 Luma3DS .zip 里的 boot.firm 和 boot.3dsx 到你 SD 卡的根目录
    • 根目录指的是你点进 SD 卡看到的目录，你可以在这个目录下看到 Nintendo 3DS 文件夹，但请不要点进去
  3. 在 SD 卡根目录创建一个名为 boot9strap 的文件夹
  4. 从boot9strap .zip 文件中复制 boot9strap.firm 和 boot9strap.firm.sha 到你SD卡的 /boot9strap/ 文件夹中
  5. Copy SafeB9SInstaller.bin to the root of your SD card
  6. 检查 SD 卡的根目录是否存在一个名为 3ds 的文件夹，如果没有则手动新建一个
    • This folder stores homebrew applications and data; it is different from the Nintendo 3DS folder that the console automatically generates
  7. Copy the nimdsphax folder from the nimdsphax .zip to the /3ds/ folder on your SD card
  8. Copy menuhax67_installer.3dsx from the menuhax .zip to the /3ds/ folder on your SD card
  9. Copy Launcher.dat from the folder for your model and region inside the menuhax .zip to the root of your SD card
  10. Keep your SD card inserted in your computer, as it is still required in the next section

Section III - Installing Kartminer7

  1. Extract the Release_BETA_mk7 .zip to somewhere on your computer (i.e. your desktop)
  2. Copy your movable.sed file to the resources folder of the Release_BETA_mk7 folder
    • Ensure that the file is named exactly movable.sed
  3. Open the backup folder inside of the Release_BETA_mk7 folder
  4. Double-click on the BACKUP .bat file corresponding to your console’s region (e.g. backup_USA.bat if you have a USA copy of Mario Kart 7)
    • If you are unsure of your console region, you can check System Settings. U = USA; E = EUR, J = JPN
    • If you get a message from Windows Defender, click “More info”, “Run anyway”, then press any key to continue
    • If the backup was successful, you should see a new folder appear
    • If you wish to restore this data at a later date (after finishing this guide), insert your SD card and double-click on the RESTORE .bat file corresponding to your console’s region
  5. Go back to the Release_BETA_mk7 folder, then double-click on the .bat file corresponding to your console’s region (e.g. USA.bat if you have a USA copy of Mario Kart 7)
  6. Reinsert your SD card into your console

Section IV - Kartminer7

  1. Power on your console
  2. Open Mario Kart 7
  3. Tap the “Mario Kart Channel” button on the bottom
  4. Tap the “StreetPass List” button on the bottom of the screen, in the middle
  5. Press (A) over and over again
    • You should eventually see the “Start Race?” prompt, then the colours on the bottom screen should change from red, to blue, to white
    • If you see the red/blue/white screens but the 3DS crashes, just reboot and try again
    • If you don’t see ANY colours, change your system language (if possible), then try the exploit again
  6. If the exploit was successful, the 3DS will have booted into the 3DS ROP xPloit Injector

Section V - Installing menuhax67

  1. Press (Y) + (D-Pad Down) to install menuhax67
    • The console will automatically power off
  2. Power on your console
  3. Tap on the small HOME Menu settings icon in the top left of the bottom screen ()
    • If the console freezes for a while and then crashes, make sure you have Launcher.dat on the root of your SD card
  4. If the exploit was successful, your console will have booted into the Homebrew Launcher
  5. Launch nimdsphax from the list of homebrew
  6. 如果一切成功的话，你将自动进入 SafeB9SInstaller
    • If your console freezes on a red screen, hold the POWER button until it turns off, then try running menuhax again by powering on your console and tapping on the HOME Menu settings icon

Section VI - Installing boot9strap

In this section, you will install custom firmware onto your console.

  1. When prompted, input the key combo given on the top screen to install boot9strap
  2. Once it is complete, press (A) to reboot your console
  3. 你的主机应该会在开机后进入 Luma3DS 配置菜单
    • Luma3DS 配置菜单用于设置 Luma3DS 自制固件的可选功能 其中有许多功能可用于个性化或调试
    • 对于本手册的目的而言，请不要修改默认设置（不要选中或者取消选中任何东西）

  4. 按下 “Start” 键保存设置并重启

At this point, your console will boot to Luma3DS by default.

  • Luma3DS does not look any different from the normal HOME Menu. If your console has booted into the HOME Menu, it is running custom firmware.
  • On the next page, you will install useful homebrew applications to complete your setup.
