9. Go to title/0040010/00022300/content for a EU emunand, title/0040010/00021300/content for a US one, and title/0040010/00020300/content for a JP one.
i can´t found this on my 3ds folder my 3ds folder is like this
E:\Nintendo 3DS\26f33ff3dae44710fae9eb596444d864\f28600e4471411b1534131360002544d\title\00040000\00193000\content
You're supposed to do that in WinImage once you do the other steps to get the emuNAND.fat16.bin.

ok now im on step 15. Restore your emunand with emunand tool. but the emunand tool he gave me has 2 choices Extract emuNAND and Inject Nand to emuNAND what´s the correct choice? i think its Inject NAND to emuNAND but it ask me for NAND.bin not for emuNAND.bin or i should use NAND.bin from my nand backup?

Inject is the correct option. You want to use the emuNAND.bin that's in the FBI Injection folder.

After you inject it, you're done with the emuNAND.bin. Put your SD back in your 3DS and test to see if when you click on the Health & Safety icon FBI launches (once you're in emuNAND).

Thanks so much but how can i uninstall Devmenu from Sysnand because i can´t install it on emunand because it says that it already exist and i don´t think i can uninstall it from itself

You don't put the file in the SD card, you just use the inject option on the tool and pick the emunand that you want to inject.
so the inject option inject it directly to the sd card?
can i erase it now?

and Bob thanks for all your help now i have devmenu on my emunand and now im going to unlink the emunand

You got DevMenu uninstalled from sysNAND? And yep, you can erase the emuNAND.bin (unless you want to keep it as a backup). Glad I could help!

...uhm, wow, so, like, my N3DS has 2 souls now? What?

Anyway, I've managed to salvage the unbootable Emunand saves thanks to @Ichii Giki's tut on how to do a manual transfer (and whoever's tools are used on the process and mentioned there) and also thanks to whatever Ninty's engineer that overlooked the system's individual xorpad being essentially immutable.
Lost a NNID on the process (too lazy to call up on one without purchases nor positive balance) but not everything is meant to be a field of flowers anyway.

Now I'm off to clean up some 8GB of mid-process NANDs off my SSD. BRB

@Derfderk No the N3DS would inherit the soul of the old 3DS, and completely replace it :P

Sorry if I wasn't any help, I really hope you can get that save data back for your sis. If you need help restoring those saves for whatever game it is, maybe I can help.

I am having trouble acquiring my secureinfo_a file from my O3DS. I want to change region of my JP N3DS using this guide. http://gbatemp.net/threads/how-to-create-a-north-american-non-xl-new-3ds.387818/

rxtools and cearps tool are not working for me for whatever reason.

I have a nand.bin dump, but I am confused on how to extract the secureinfo_a file. I tried to extract the fat16 partition using this tool, but again could not get it to run properly. https://gbatemp.net/threads/release...t-the-fat16-partition-from-nand-dumps.380101/

Can anyone give a basic guide to extracting a secureinfo_a file from a nand.bin dump?

Yup, emunand tool and Sky3ds automatically detect and read from SD card types... I had a really big headache when I first used them, I have used USB adapaters with my memory cards all my life and I didn't understand why I was unable to use the programs, the programs never read my SD cards or let me open any directory to use them... Until I figured out that it was because they were read as USB conections by the computer rather than SD cards lol...

I have a New 3DS XL (USA) with a 9.0 firmware. What's the easiest way to play Japanese games? The actual games themselves? (I have a Japanese 3DS game I want to play.)

Do you want to actually play a cartridge or a rom? Your best choice would be Gateway, but then you also need to buy Cubic Ninja or Zelda OoT. You can ship your 3DS to someone and they can set it up for you with their copy of Cubic Ninja.

Other than that, you can use SKy3DS + Cubic Ninja for region free. (More expensive)

OR you can use Pasta CFW which requires Cubic Ninja. (Prob your best free option, minus the need to buy Cubic Ninja)

hugely noob question but what exactly do I need to hack my 3ds please help me I have no idea what Im doing and I can't understand any of this I don't even know what a flash card is
is it even possible I'm running ver. 9.8.0-25E
Currently there's no known way to play game backups on 9.8.0-25. You may consider selling your 3DS and buy another one with lower firmware version.

    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
