EDIT: The emuNAND Tool has been updated and now works again!

Since right now the emuNAND Tool doesn't work, I've come up with a workaround:

Programs you will need:

• USB Image Tool
• EaseUS Partition Master

Both these programs are free.

PLEASE NOTE: Doing the following method will make a 1:1 copy of the source SD card and put it on the target SD card. It will transfer everything, not just emuNAND.

How to:

1. Plug the source SD card into your PC, this is the card that you want to transfer emuNAND from.
2. Run USB Image Tool
3. Click on the SD card and then "Backup"
4. Remove the source SD Card and replace it with the target SD Card.
5. Click on the new SD card, locate the backup image and then "Restore"
6. Run EaseUS Partition Master and click on "EaseUS Partition Master Free"
7. Right click on the SD card's partition with data on it, it should be in between two Unallocated partitions and choose "Resize/Move Partition"
8. Click on the MIDDLE PARTITION, the one that has the data on it and expand it TO THE RIGHT (VERY IMPORTANT)
9. Click OK
10. Click Apply on the top left, then OK
11. Done!

Important Information:
Currently with Gateway 3.1.0 there's a (visual?)bug with higher capacity microSD cards. When running emuNAND it doesn't show the "GW3D" in settings, before the version number telling you if you're in emuNAND or not, because of this its very risky to update emuNAND.
With my guide you can use a 4gb microSD card (where the visual bug doesn't happen) to format emuNAND, update to the latest firmware and transfer it onto a higher capacity microSD card.

Don't panic! - When the transfer is complete and you run the updated emuNAND on your new 3ds it still wont show the "GW3D" prefix before the version number. It'll just say 9.5.0-22E or something along those lines.

Any questions, feel free to ask

im doind this but after restore the backup the pc ask to format the SD and ease partition don't have the option Middle partition

You can also
1. Make a backup of all your SD files and folders and your Emunand
2. Drag all files and payloads for Emunand9 to your new SD
3. Open Emunand9, and eject the old SD from inside payload
4. Insert new SD (w/ payloads)
5. Format the SD with an Emunand
6. Turn off 3ds
7. Drag all the information off the old SD onto the new SD (don't forget the Emunand backup)
8. Restore Emunand backup
9. Boot

This is an older method that I've also tested before (back in menuhax days...) Only use if the method above doesn't want to work for you.
P.S. This method takes longer, but is guaranteed to work...

Use the process Barnwey outlined instead.

Why'd you post a separate thread? I said to use the other method, not this garbage one that so many people are having issues with.

My SD card is practically dead, windows or any program can format the SD now, i don't have access to the card, windows ask to format but it fails.

That's why you don't use this tutorial in this thread, but the other one. Format it with SDFormatter.

i already formated with this program and recovery the sd, i will use gateway to create emunand becuse Emunand9 looks complicated.

only a question, gateway can "brick" SD card?
i will use gateway to create emunand because Emunand9 looks complicated.

It won't brick your SD card, but that's the old way to make an EmuNAND. Emunand9 isn't as complicated as it looks, the format EmuNAND option should be under the "Format SD card" option. Even though I haven't needed an EmuNAND since I installed A9LH...

Make sure you make an SD backup though, this will format the SD card...

I have a question.
I have gateway
I have latest emunand version in my old3ds and i want to transfer to my new3ds completely. (Including NNID) (I want to use my old3ds' SD card)

New3ds sysnand is 9.2 But i can't boot in gw mode for now. (homebrew website down)

I used Luma CFW in my New3DS but i deleted it.

How can i transfer completely in easy way? My NNID in old3ds' emunand
Do i need to backup my SD?

If you're going to use the same SD card, all you need to do is load up a CFW via A9LH, and boot. EmuNAND is on the SD card, not the 3ds.

Yeah i did like that. Thanks

 

[BARNWEY]

No prob...

 

[Firion Hope]

Trying to do this (I want to clone my whole card not just transfer my emunand) however I can't copy from one SD card to the other despite them being the same size, the new one being completely empty, and the old one only being half full. On step 5 it gives an error message about not having enough space

How many partitions are there in the sd card? I know acronis true image does resize automatically. Tested with retropie to a smaller sd card.

Nice and easy to follow many thanks worked 1st time.
