Well I basically clicked on the reinand option from the homebrew channel, and i checked and it booted showing rei9.0.0 thing in system settings which i assumed meant i was in emunand but i guess thats wrong and im a moron who didnt actually have an emunand to begin with.... i noticed that checking system settings booted me back to sysnand so i just went back in through the HBC and booted reinand and went straight to title manager to install the updates. jesus im dumb. all this just cause i hhaaaddd to play smash bros...
and yeah ive tried every different combo turning it on off w/o msd all that... no dice.

Alright, your Nand is toast then. :|

Yeah, that sucks. I know all my questions have probably been annoying to everyone here, but I try to always fully understand what I am doing before I dive in.

Right now I am out of state, otherwise I would tell you to send it over my way and I would see if one of these guys here in Houston can fix it for you.
Nasa employees got laid off and would love a challenge :P

Tried everything. its bricked. wish they sold new 3ds motherboards, id have no trouble fixing it like that. Its tough, i could import another one for $180 and have it thursday but no way itd have firmware for pasta. i bought my original one in march and it shipped with 9.0.0 so i can only imagine theyre at like 9.6 or something at this point.or i can get a used old 3ds guaranteed to have a good firmware for ~$100. dont think the extra $80 is worth the risk.
All brand new old 3ds's have exploitable firmware.

Used to work at NASA, keeps busy trying to unbrick 3DSes

Talk about over qualified!

How I can compile the lastest version? I put the files on same folder but I don't know what I have to do :(

When I run "make" I get this error

Makefile:2: *** "Please set DEVKITARM in your environment. export DEVKITARM=<path to>devkitARM". Stop.

Maybe someone have a compiled version with last commits?

Okay heres a quick guide I've just made on how to compile ReiNand in Windows 8/10.

Download the following files:
GitHub
devkitPro
Python
gcc-arm-none-eab
MinGW-get-setup
firmware.bin & armips.exe (Linked on the Git).

Install GitHub.
Install devkitPro.
Install Python.
Install gcc-arm-none-eab (At the end of setup make sure you tick the 'Environmental Variables' option).
Install MinGW-get-setup, open the MinGw Installer and select 'mingw-developer-toolkit'. Then select Installation and Apply Changes.
Copy armips.exe to it's own folder (e.g. 'C:\CommandPrograms').

Navigate to Control Panel/System/Advanced System Settings/Environmental Variables.

You will see two boxes. One labelled 'User Variables' and the other 'System Variables'. DO NOT TOUCH ANYTHING IN SYSTEM VARIABLES!

Under 'User Variables', edit the variable called 'PATH' (create it if it's not there) and ADD armips, Python and the MinGW bin directories to the list, separating each directory with a ';'.

(Default is 'C:\MinGW\bin;C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\bin;C:\CommandPrograms;C:\Python34;').

(NOTE: If GNU Tools isn't mentioned at all in your PATH, then you must have missed the tick box earlier when installing the program. If this is the case; just add the bin folder of the location it's installed in to the list. E.g. 'C:\Program Files (x86)\GNU Tools ARM Embedded\4.9 2015q2\bin;').

Click OK to save the changes.

In Git Shell, type in 'git clone --recursive https://github.com/Reisyukaku/ReiNand.git'. This will add ReiNand source to your GitHub directory.

Copy the firmware.bin file into the ReiNand\data directory.

(For some reason if I try to build ReiNand in Git Shell, it crashes on my system. Not sure if this is Windows 10 related, but for the rest of the tutorial I used the normal command prompt).

Type in 'cd (wherever ReiNand is)'.

Type in 'make'.

As long as this was successful, it should compile the source code to the ReiNand\Out directory.

Enjoy, and thanks to Reisyukaku for providing the source code!

I received my r4i gold today and was using the ds profile exploit (without a ds flashcard) to launch reinand on my 9.0 n3ds. I just launched my R4 and it removed the exploit. Is it possible to combine the profile exploit (using the ds flashcard) while still using the r4 for ds games?

nope. just install the mset exploit with your r4 after using it

Edit: Well, technically the answer to your question is Yes lol. But you have to reinstall the exploit with the .nds file everytime

I've been meaning to try this out, but I have a couple questions, if nobody minds.

First off, since I'd like to set up a couple GBA games, I was wondering about keeping the two NANDs linked out of convenience. If I do so, how do I tell whether I'm on sysNAND or emuNAND? Also, would I still be able to update emuNAND without updating sysNAND? Is there a benefit to doing so, or would firmlaunch allowing me to run anything requiring up to 9.5 give me all the same benefits?

I also recall reading about being able to swap to RxTools emuNAND once I got this one set up. Is there an advantage to doing so and using RxTools instead of ReiNAND?

When I launch Reinand from MSET, I always get a black srceen with nothing happens.

I can just power off the 3ds and try again.

Any ideas to solve that?

version: new 3ds 9.1.0.20j

Right now rxTools' new3DS support is still very much a work in progress.

So, while moving to rxTools is a good long term plan, if you're looking for a new3DS emuNAND solution that "just works" reiNAND will do nicely.

Actually there is a way to do that. Make sure your emuNAND and sysNAND has different names for their DS profile. Then install the profile exploit on sysNAND(of course where else). Then ALWAYS start your DS games in emuNAND :)

I tried this but could you elaborate "a different name for the ds profile". When i enter the DS profile there isn't much to change lol, and when i enter settings in emunand and open DS profile it crashes my system.

I'm installing the exploit with my R4 (booting the R4 in sysnand). Or do i have to install it with fbi in sysnand (while in emunand).

It's simply your DS profile name. Just change sysNAND profile name to something else. If your DS profile name was "User" then you can change it to "User*" for example.
And only install the MSET exploit on sysNAND. No point having it on emuNAND at all.
