<details class="notice--info">
<summary><em>Technical Details (optional)</em></summary>
<p>In order to exploit the SAFE_MODE firmware of our system, we need to inject an exploited WiFi profile.</p>
<p>To accomplish this, we can use the Download Play functionality of the game Mario Kart 7, using a 3DS with custom firmware already installed along with a custom game plugin.</p>
<p>This custom plugin will send a hacked payload to an unhacked console, which then exploits the system in order to inject the exploited WiFi profile into your connections list.</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>For a more technical explanation, see the following links for information on the kartdlphax and unSAFE_MODE exploits: <a href="https://github.com/PabloMK7/kartdlphax">kartdlphax</a>, <a href="https://github.com/zoogie/unSAFE_MODE/">unSAFE_MODE</a>.</p>
</details>
<h3 id="compatibility-notes">Compatibility Notes</h3>
<p>In order to follow these instructions, you will need the following:</p>
<ul>
<li>A second 3DS with custom firmware (the <strong>source 3DS</strong>) that is the same region as the 3DS you are trying to modify (the <strong>target 3DS</strong>)
<ul>
<li>The consoles must be USA, JPN, or EUR region consoles</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>A physical or digital copy of Mario Kart 7 that is the same region as both consoles</li>
<li>An SD card for both devices</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="what-you-need">What You Need</h3>
<p>On the <strong>source 3DS</strong> (the 3DS with custom firmware):</p>
<ul>
<li>The latest release of <a href="https://github.com/PabloMK7/kartdlphax/releases/latest">kartdlphax</a> (<code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">plugin.3gx</code>)</li>

</ul>
<p>On the <strong>target 3DS</strong> (the 3DS that you are trying to modify):</p>
<ul>
<li>The latest release of <a href="https://github.com/d0k3/SafeB9SInstaller/releases/download/v0.0.7/SafeB9SInstaller-20170605-122940.zip">SafeB9SInstaller</a> (direct download)</li>
<li>The latest release of <a href="https://github.com/SciresM/boot9strap/releases/download/1.4/boot9strap-1.4.zip">boot9strap</a> (direct download)</li>

<h4 id="section-i---hardware-button-check-target-3ds">Section I - Hardware Button Check (target 3DS)</h4>
<p>In this section, you will see whether your shoulder buttons are working on your device. This will determine which method you will follow on the next page.</p>
<ol>
<li>Power on your device</li>
<li>Once you see the HOME Menu, press the (Left Shoulder) and (Right Shoulder) buttons at the same time
<ul>
<li>The camera applet should appear</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Power off your device</li>
</ol>
<p class="notice--warning">If the camera does not open, you cannot follow this method. If this is the case, join <a href="https://discord.gg/MWxPgEp">Nintendo Homebrew on Discord</a> and ask, in English, for help.</p>
<h4 id="section-ii---prep-work-source-3ds">Section II - Prep Work (source 3DS)</h4>
<p>In this section, you will set up your source 3DS (the 3DS with custom firmware) for delivery of the exploit data to the target 3DS.</p>
<ol>
<li>Insert the SD card of your <strong>source 3DS</strong> in your computer</li>
<li>Copy Luma 3GX Loader Editions <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">boot.firm</code> to the root of the <strong>source 3DS</strong>s SD card, replacing any existing file
<ul>
<li>The root of the SD card refers to the initial directory on your SD card where you can see the Nintendo 3DS folder, but are not inside of it</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Copy kartdlphaxs <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">plugin.3gx</code> to the following directory on the <strong>source 3DS</strong>s SD card, depending on the <strong>region of your copy of Mario Kart 7</strong>:
<ul>
<li>USA: <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">luma/plugins/0004000000030800</code></li>
<li>EUR: <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">luma/plugins/0004000000030700</code></li>
<li>JPN: <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">luma/plugins/0004000000030600</code></li>
<li>Create the <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">plugins</code> and <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">00040000...</code> folders if they do not already exist</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Eject the SD card and put it in the <strong>source 3DS</strong></li>
</ol>
<h4 id="section-iii---prep-work-target-3ds">Section III - Prep Work (target 3DS)</h4>
<p>In this section, you will copy the files needed to trigger the unSAFE_MODE exploit onto your target 3DS (the 3DS that you are trying to modify)s SD card.</p>
