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](https://github.com/zoogie/unSAFE_MODE/) for information about the unSAFE_MODE exploit.

### Was du brauchst

* Die neueste Version vom [SafeB9SInstaller](https://github.com/d0k3/SafeB9SInstaller/releases/download/v0.0.7/SafeB9SInstaller-20170605-122940.zip) (Direkter Download)
* The latest release of [unSAFE_MODE](https://github.com/zoogie/unSAFE_MODE/releases/download/v1.3/RELEASE_v1.3.zip) (direct download)

#### Abschnitt I - Vorbereitungen

In diesem Schritt wirst du die Dateien, die zum Auslösen des unSAFE_MODE Exploits benutzt werden, auf die SD-Karte deiner Konsole kopieren. Then, you will use Homebrew Launcher to launch slotTool, which will overwrite your Wi-Fi slots with hacked data. Your Wi-Fi connection settings will be temporarily overwritten while the exploit is active.

1. Stecke deine SD-Karte in deinen Computer
1. Erstelle einen Ordner namens `boot9strap` im Stammverzeichnis deiner SD-Karte
1. Copy `boot9strap.firm` and `boot9strap.firm.sha` from the RELEASE `.zip` to the `/boot9strap/` folder on your SD card
1. Erstelle einen Ordner namens `3ds` im Stammverzeichnis deiner SD-Karte falls er noch nicht existiert
    + Dieser Ordner enthält Homebrew Anwendungen und Daten; er unterscheidet sich von dem 'Nintendo 3DS' Ordner, den das Gerät automatisch generiert
1. Copy the `slotTool` folder from the RELEASE `.zip` to the `/3ds/` folder on your SD card
1. Copy `usm.bin` from the RELEASE `.zip` to the root folder on your SD card
1. Copy `SafeB9SInstaller.bin` from the SafeB9SInstaller `.zip` to the root of your SD card
1. Stecke deine SD-Karte nun wieder in deinen 3DS
1. Schalte deine Konsole an
1. Open the Homebrew Launcher through your method of choice (likely the Internet Browser)
1. Starte slotTool aus der Liste der Homebrew-Anwendungen
  + If you get stuck on a red screen, forcefully power off the console by holding the power button for fifteen seconds, then retry this section
1. Select the "INSTALL exploit to wifi slots 1,2,3 & shutdown" option
  + You will see some on-screen text and then your system will shut down
