GreenCitrus v0.2.2

Citrus de-yellow'ing Tool for TN Screens

GreenCitrus, a homebrew tool for the Nintendo 3DS designed to mitigate the yellow tint often found on TN screens. This tool works by filling the TN screen with a white color at maximum brightness for an extended period.

Features

  • Screen Detection: Automatically detects whether the device is a New Nintendo 3DS and identifies the type of screens (TN or IPS) installed.
  • Static Information Display: Provides information about the screen type, battery percentage, and adapter state.
  • Dynamic Information Display: Continuously updates battery and adapter state information.
  • Screen Selection: Allows users to choose which screen (top or bottom) to de-yellow.
  • User-Friendly Interface: Simple controls using the D-pad for screen selection and easy-to-read on-screen information.

How It Works

GreenCitrus reduces the yellow tint on TN screens by displaying white at maximum brightness for a prolonged period. It is recommended to run the tool for 6 hours to 24 hours for optimal results.

Installation

  1. Download the GreenCitrus_v0.2.2.3dsx file from the releases page.
  2. Copy the .3dsx file to the /3ds/ directory on your 3DS SD card.
  3. Launch the Homebrew Launcher on your 3DS and select GreenCitrus.

Usage

  1. Start GreenCitrus from the Homebrew Launcher.
  2. Follow the on-screen instructions to select the screen you want to de-yellow.
  3. Allow the tool to run for the recommended duration (6 hours to 24 hours) to achieve the best results.

Notes

  • Ensure your 3DS is plugged into a power source during the de-yellowing process to prevent battery drain.
  • This tool was inspired by Jake64's video on reducing yellow tint on TN screens. Watch the video here.
