Internet Browser

The 3DS Internet Browser was added in the June 2011 Update for JPN/EUR/USA.

From the Internet Browser help section: In compliance with the LGPL, the source code of the OSS is available via the Nintendo website. This source code can be downloaded here: [1] [2]

The 3DS Internet Browser is Netfront Browser NX v1.0 based on WebKit engine.

The browser supports up to 64 bookmarks.

The exheader name of this title is "spider".

The only difference between the ExeFS .code for each region of the Old3DS/New3DS browser, is byte values for the title uniqueID/region, otherwise the binaries are identical.

A "dummy" browser (which replaces the actual browser) is now being included beginning with games shipping the 9.9.0-X system update. In addition, versions of the real browser since 9.9.0-26X now attempt to check-in with a Nintendo server to determine if the existing browser version is out of date.

New 3DS Internet Browser

New3DS has a separate browser title, the exheader name is "SKATER".

Unlike the Old3DS browser, this New3DS browser has videos+HTML5 support. This browser also has a filter enabled by default(ExeFS codebin is same for all regions, this filter only applies for JPN region). Disabling it requires paying money with a credit-card, for purchasing web-browser DLC.

During startup the browser does various HTTPS comms. When visting an URL, the browser sends a plaintext HTTP POST to here: [3]. The raw POST data begins with "ARS/2.0\r\n\x00", the rest appears to be encrypted. The server reply content also has this ARS header + encrypted data. This appears to use a fixed xorpad, likely from a fixed encryption CTR/IV. The server content responses for allowed sites, and blocked sites, are fixed. When the server returns that the site is blocked, the browser goes to this page: [4](the Referrer header value is set to the same URL it's actually requesting).

The WebKit source was updated since the Old3DS browser.

Unlike the Old3DS browser, the New3DS browser uses the following services: mvd:STD and ir:rst(DLC-related services are used too but those aren't New3DS specific).

Video decoding is done with mvd:STD. Audio decoding/playback is done with a browser-specific DSP binary. The Old3DS browser used CSND for audio playback, the New3DS browser doesn't have access to that at all since it uses DSP instead.

The browser manual includes licenses for Android and PacketVideo. The browser uses libstagefright from Android.

WKC_CUSTOMER_RELEASE_VERSION was changed from "0.5.8" to "0.5.10".

The following code was added to ResourceHandleManager::doRedirect(): curl_easy_setopt(d->m_handle, CURLOPT_SHARE, 0);

v9.6

WebKit/OSS code was actually updated. ExeFS .code was updated. The following files in RomFS were updated:

• "/banner/CN/Skater.icn" and "/banner/KR/Skater.icn".
• "/browser/rootca.pem"
• "/build/buildinfo.dat"

See here for a diff of the OSS(WebKitLibraries/ is not included due to the massive cairo library diff). An exploitable security vuln(which was already known in the context of 3DS webkit) was fixed. Yellows8' private(at the time of writing) exploit for it is based on the PoC from here(see the pastebin for the actual pastebin author).

v10.2

The libstagefright build in the main SKATER codebin was updated to a version which fixed libstagefright vuln(s): the vuln used in browserhax_fright at the time of sysupdate release was fixed. The *only* code changed in the main codebin, was code related to libstagefright.

This message only triggers when attempting to load a web-page. This is only handled the first time the browser accesses a web-page, during this browser session.

The browser codebins starting with v9.9 now contain the following URL strings:

• New3DS: "https://cbvc.cdn.nintendo.net/SNAKE/1/<region>"

The <region> string is one of the following:

• "JPN"
• "USA"
• "EUR"
• "KOR"

Starting with the browser from 10.2.0-28, the "1" in the above URLs were changed to "2".

As of October 26, 2015, the "1" URLs return the browser-version for v9.9(decimal number as a string without any "."), while the "2" URLs returns 0.

if(internal_browserver > server_browserver)
{
    <safe>
}
else
{
    <update message>
}

Hence, internal_browserver == server_browserver will trigger the sysupdate message, which appears to be the normal way to indicate that the current browser is outdated(see above).

There is a cache for this in savedata. The request is only done when at least 24-hours have passed since the last time the request was done(see the below savedata section).

It is still possible to guard against this update by blocking the previous URLs using a proxy. It is not possible to remove the update message by entering the Recovery Mode.

v9.9 dummy web-browser

The gamecard v9.9 sysupdate included with some games contains a dummy Old3DS/New3DS web-browser. The *only* thing this title does is display the same message listed in the above forced-update section. The message files in RomFS *only* contain that message string above. There are no "http" strings in the main codebin, and RO isn't used either(no CRO data in RomFS at all). Both browsers are internally called "dummySpider".

Hence, if you update your system from pre-v9.9 using a gamecard with v9.9, the system web-browser will be rendered *completely* useless until you install a system-update from CDN(no network requests involved here).

Savedata

New3DS

On newer SKATER versions, it appears *all* NAND savedata is stored under the 0x000200BB savedata.

0x000200BB savedata

This only contains "t.bin" with filesize 0xadf80, the format is below.

The timestamp format used here is the number of milliseconds since January 1, 2000(local-time).

When using the "Initiaize savedata" option in the browser, that deletes this savedata file/image then exits the browser. This file is then re-created when the browser gets started again.

Offset	Size	Description
0x68	0x4?	This counter is incremented each time the savedata is written.
0x70	0x8	Timestamp for when the savedata was last written.
0x94	0x15?	This is all-zeros on non-JPN systems. On JPN systems where the browser filter is disabled, this is a string in the following format: "4110-%016llX".
0xD8	0x8	s64 timestamp, can be either a normal positive timestamp or a relative negative one. Used with the forced-update described above. When an update is detected this timestamp is negative, otherwise this is a normal positive timestamp(it's unknown how exactly this timestamp is checked). When positive, this seems to be the last time the forced-update HTTPS request was done where no update was needed.

Tips

Detect User Agent

To detect if the user agent is Nintendo 3DS Browser :

<script type="text/javascript">
    if (navigator.userAgent.indexOf('Nintendo 3DS') == -1) { //If the UserAgent is not "Nintendo 3DS"
        location.replace('http://www.3dbrew.org'); //Redirect to an other page
    }
</script>

• You can check navigator.platform=="Nintendo 3DS" as well.

Scrolling

Scrolling can be altered by modifying document.body.scrollTop and document.body.scrollLeft. However, there are drawbacks related to working with these properties:

• Both properties return 0 when accessed
• Setting one property resets the other property's scroll position

In order to set both at the same time (without either resetting to 0), use window.scrollTo.

Events

Key Events

The following buttons trigger the onkeydown, onkeypress and onkeyup events:

Code	Button
13	A
37	Left
38	Up
39	Right
40	Down

The events cannot have their default action cancelled. Other buttons do not trigger key events.

Touch/Mouse Events

onmousedown, onmouseup & onclick are all triggered by the browser. However, the onmousedown event doesn't trigger until you lift the stylus or you've held it on the screen for ~2 seconds—which is when text selection mode is activated—making it pretty much the same as onmouseup. The events cannot have their default action cancelled.

The onmousemove and common touch/gesture events are not supported.

Screen Resolution

The up screen resolution is 400×240. However, the viewable area in the browser is only 400×220.

The touch screen resolution is 320×240. However, the viewable area in the browser is only 320×212.

You can have a page span both screens. However, the browser will behave as if the bottom screen is the only active screen and the top screen is scrolled off. This is important when computing CSS coordinates. Items positioned from "bottom" will be positioned based on 220px and not the full 432px of both screens.

Using Both Screens

Generally the easiest way to accomplish the correct layout is to create HTML elements that "contain" the top and bottom screens. Here's an example:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=400">
    <style>
      body{margin:0px;}
      #topscreen{width:400px;height:220px;overflow:hidden;}
      #bottomscreen{width:320px;height:212px;overflow:hidden;margin:0 auto;}
    </style>
  </head>
  <body>
    <div id="topscreen">Top Screen</div>
    <div id="bottomscreen">Bottom Screen</div>
  </body>
</html>

This scheme allows the page to be easily manipulated through JavaScript. In order to have the window snap to the correct position, use the following JavaScript code:

window.setInterval(function () {
    window.scrollTo(40, 220);  
}, 50);

This automatically resets the position if the user accidentally scrolls the page.
