What is R4i-B9S for Nintendo NEW 3DS/2DS XL/3DS?
An R4i-B9S is a new card that comes from r4i-sdhc.com group. As we know, it is a company that already has a R4i SDHC 3DS RTS card to play free DS games. This time the new R4i B9S 3DS card is different, as it is an R4 card to play free 3DS games with CIA format.What is B9S for?
Why is this R4 3DS card called R4i B9S? What is B9S used for a 3DS console? Here is a question from a player:
I have seen GBATemp recently, and I found a topic to install Boot9Strap. What is it exactly? What is this for? I have currently installed A9LH, and everything seems to work fine. What is the advantage of using it? Also, why does Luma3DS go to Boot9Strap? Boot9Strap replaces A9LH? How it works? I checked 3ds.guide, but this is not explained there.
So what is B9S for? It's also the b9s which is an exploit of bootrom and works much earlier in the start process than a9lh. B9s allows an access into the new system files that a9lh can't do.In addition, B9S added a better brick protection and update protection, as it can not be banned or patched without hardware revision. It may be more useful for developers, B9S uses ".firm" files instead of ".bin" files for payloads., allowing access to new system files that A9LH can not do. In addition, B9S added a better brick protection and update protection, as it can not be banned or patched without hardware revision. It may be more useful for developers, B9S uses ".firm" files instead of ".bin" files for payloads.
These are the benefits of using it, and Luma3DS will switch to Boot9Strap because A9LH is obsolete now, so yes, B9S is replacing A9LH. If you are using Luma3DS and you still want to receive updates, you need to upgrade to B9S.
