Installing boot9strap (HBL-USM)
Technical Details (optional)
In order to exploit the SAFE_MODE firmware of our system, we need to inject an exploited WiFi profile.
As we already have Homebrew access, we can use slotTool to do this.
Once the WiFi profile has been injected, we will use SAFE_MODE, which is a recovery feature present on all 3DS consoles, to activate the exploited WiFi profile.
For a more technical explanation, see here for information about the unSAFE_MODE exploit.

第一節 — 準備工作
In this section, you will use Homebrew Launcher to launch slotTool, which will overwrite your Wi-Fi slots with hacked data. Then, you will copy the files needed to trigger the unSAFE_MODE exploit onto your device’s SD card. Your Wi-Fi connection settings will be temporarily overwritten while the exploit is active.

第二節 — unSAFE_MODE
In this section, you will enter Safe Mode (a feature available on all 3DS family devices) and navigate to a menu where unSAFE_MODE will be triggered, which will launch you into the boot9strap (custom firmware) installer.
- With your device still powered off, hold the following buttons: (Left Shoulder) + (Right Shoulder) + (D-Pad Up) + (A), and while holding these buttons together, power on your device
- Keep holding the buttons until the device boots into Safe Mode (a “system update” menu)
- Press “OK” to accept the update
- There is no update. This is part of the exploit
- Press “I accept” to accept the terms and conditions
- The update will eventually fail, with the error code

. This is intended behaviour - When asked “Would you like to configure Internet settings?”, select “Yes”
- On the following menu, navigate to
Connection 1
->Change Settings
->Next Page (right arrow)
->Proxy Settings
->Detailed Setup
(image) - If the exploit was successful, your device will have booted into SafeB9SInstaller
- If your device instead freezes on a white screen, hold the POWER button until it turns off, then retry this section
- If your device instead freezes on a red screen, you are missing
usm.bin
from the root of your SD card
第三節 — 安裝 boot9strap
In this section, you will install custom firmware onto your device.
- When prompted, input the key combo given on the top screen to install boot9strap
- Once it is complete, press (A) to reboot your device
- Your device should have booted into the Luma3DS configuration menu
- Luma3DS configuration menu are settings for the Luma3DS custom firmware. Many of these settings may be useful for customization or debugging
- For the purpose of this guide, leave these options on the default settings (do not check or uncheck anything)
- If your device shuts down when you try to power it on, ensure that you have copied
boot.firm
from the Luma3DS.zip
to the root of your SD card
- 按『Start』鍵以存檔並重新啟動系統
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.
