Hello,

I can't open up the internet browser - when I try it says "The internet browser will be available once you update your system via the internet." Of course if I do that I'm screwed, right?

Also, there's no QR code button in camera mode - yes I'm using the basic camera mode, not the one with the parakeet.

I have the original 3DS model.

Your 3DS version needs to be between 4.1 and 9.2 for it to work. If not, you need a game cart to update it to one of these firmwares.

Thanks heaps bro! Was worried there for a second.

What the main issue here is, there's another folder within the Nintendo 3DS folder. Which I just merged. It wasn't registering because the ID folder with 32 characters needs to be copied over to the EmuNAND created one. Works fine for me now :)

I think it should be added to the FAQ.
Yep these are next to be added, I'll do it once I have a shower :)

I heard some ppl report that they couldn't play online. I haven't tested myself yet tho. So I can't say for sure.
I have tried a few headers and can't access online options of Pokémon ORAS. Animal Crossing is the same. Did you make work the online mode with any header? Im starting to think that the problem is the card2 type.

Yo, totally forgot about this thread.
I patched my clean Alpha Sapphire rom from a .3ds to a .3dz with my own personal Pokemon X header. Connected to the internet just fine. Bank and PSS both working perfectly.

So, if I want to boot in gateway mode, I need WiFi? But what if am not at home, maybe in a car? What should I do then?

Downgrade so you can install the DS exploit, or wait for the Mii exploit that they didn't release yet (probably because, for whatever reason, they don't feel it's ready for public consumption on the N3DS yet, and that exploit works on the N3DS). Since you can't do either yet, just leave it in standby mode while you're out (and disable wifi to save battery).

Seems that the save 6.x crypto isn't a problem anymore!

I can play and use my Pokemon ORAS save on my 2DS 9.2 AND on my 4.3 3DS XL without any problem.
No more corrupted save

Ah, the unspecified bonus feature. I was wondering if it had to do with save cross compatibility. Looks like I have my answer. Hope it works with card 1 saves too.

This seems to be the main reason why Gateway is making the Mii Maker exploit, but for now you do need WiFi. Some people managed to copy the payload html onto a local server so we might see a sort of Android-app-Gateway-bootstrap-thing soon.

Can anyone tell me if I'm able to enter new wifi settings into my 3ds without being asked to update?

I think when it goes to test your connection, it may download the update and then start prompting you to update. I think you can get around this by either turning the 3DS off or maybe blocking some Nintendo update servers (although I don't know if this allows the connection to be successful).

But if you haven't already entered your WiFi settings and are wanting to run this exploit then there's not much more you can do...

I am pretty sure you will need WiFi with the Mii Maker exploit as well, as the QR code will trigger something to be downloaded from somewhere.

I've not been asked to update. Setting both Spotpass settings to no appears to still be working for me on my Zelda: ALBW 3DS XL (on my 4.5s, I said "Later" to the ToS when I unlinked, and I never accepted the ToS at all on my N3DS).

Didn't that turn out not to actually work?

Unlike the single-color themes, parental controls is a separate setting even while linked. If enabled in SysNAND, you will be asked for a pin before updating (or before entering system settings if you set it up that way).

Then I'm potentially screwed. I'm on 9.2 and use the eshop a lot, so agreed to everything. I deleted my wifi settings when gateway announced not to update any further. Wonder if the dg update will solve this.... Or maybe I just take the plunge and if it goes bad, I can reluctantly get a sky :(
