Alpha 1

Android 2.0 (AOSP Eclair) running on the New Nintendo 3DS XL, booted by Luma3DS.

This is an alpha. Expect slow spots and the occasional crash.

Install

1. Download android3ds_a1.zip below.
2. Extract it to the root of the SD card. Its linux/ and luma/payloads/ folders merge with what is already there. Keep your existing luma/ folder.
3. Hold D-pad DOWN while you press POWER.

To return to the normal 3DS system, power off (hold START for 3 seconds) and turn the console on without holding anything.

The zip is ready to use and already includes the firmware the console needs.

What works

• GPU acceleration
