Sooo... what you did is using the standard format when you actually wanted one of the EmuNAND format options? Despite the, like, 5 warnings and confirmations you get? Anyways, I'll help you. There is an easier way than what you are doing now. Background info first: What happened here in more technical terms is that while formatting, the MBR (first 512 bytes) was rewritten, and there is a FAT header and table written at offset 4MB. The data overwritten by FAT header & table is destroyed, luckily there is only the TWLN partition there, which you can easily swap out with a valid one (from SysNAND, f.e.) with Decrypt9WIP or GodMode9. So, no biggie.Well, it finally happened, I used EmuNAND9 to remove an emuNAND partition by formatting the SD card before I remembered to back the emuNAND up. Currently running TestDisk in an attempt to recovery the partition table and restore it. Analyzing another SD card that was still setup with emuNAND shows it as a Bootable Primary FAT16 partition starting at sector 32, so that's what I'm hoping to find. Stupid me, wish me luck. I'll report if I managed to do it or not.
Here's what you do:
- (optional) I recommend making an image of your SD card first and to backup that on PC. At least for the first 2GB of it.
- Now, use EmuNAND9 with the format SD... for EmuNAND (legacy option)
- Try to boot that EmuNAND, most likely it will work
- (optional) repair that TWLN partition using Decrypt9WIP / GodMode9
