Omiiba3DS v1.3.0

Heads-up: Omiiba3DS is an unofficial fork of Luma3DS, rebranded for educational purposes. All firmware functionality is the work of LumaTeam (AuroraWright, TuxSH, PabloMK7 and contributors). Please open upstream-related bug reports against the upstream repository, not here.

What's in this release

This is the first public release of the Omiiba3DS fork. It is built from the same source as Luma3DS v13.4 with the following changes:

  • Project rebranded from Luma3DS / LumaTeam to Omiiba3DS / OmiibaTeam in user-visible strings, file names, and config paths
  • The on-card data folder moved from /luma to /omiiba — existing setups are migrated automatically on first boot (the /luma folder is renamed to /omiiba)
  • Custom textual cold-boot splash screen (existing splash.bin / splashbottom.bin files keep working)
  • Rosalina overlay menu retitled "Cow menu" with a green accent color
  • Hardcoded version v1.3.0 (no longer derived from upstream Luma git tags)
  • Added build helper scripts under scripts/
  • Documentation rewritten for GPLv3 §5(a) compliance — see NOTICE-OMIIBA.md for the full per-file change list

Installation

You need boot9strap installed first. Without it the firmware cannot run.

  1. Download Omiiba3DS-v1.3.0.zip below.
  2. Extract its contents to the root of your 3DS SD card. Replace existing files when prompted.
  3. If you already had Luma3DS, your /luma folder will be renamed to /omiiba automatically on the first boot — no manual copying needed.
  4. Reboot the 3DS.

If you only want to update the firmware itself, download boot.firm and drop it on the SD card root.

Configuration

  • Settings menu: hold Select at boot
  • Chainloader menu: hold Start at boot
  • Cow menu (overlay): L + Down + Select during normal use
  • Config file: /omiiba/config.ini
  • Payloads: /omiiba/payloads/*.firm
