So I'm trying to upgrade from 32 to 64GB microSD but nothing I do seems to make it work!
I've followed every instruction: format to Fat32, set to 32kb, set to 64kb, on Partition Wizard, on Guiformat, pasted old sd contents directly onto it, but nothing!

At first, the 3DS would simply start on SysNAND and not recognize the SD card at all, then when I formated the SD card using guiformat, Im now greeted with an arm11 crash (yes my Luma is up to date) Im not sure what I'm doing wrong!

Additional Notes:
  • I use Luma EmuNAND (I dont play DSi games so I never made the switch to SysNAND)
  • SD card is SanDisk Ultra
  • DS card works just fine on PC and Switch

Its because when you copy from one sd card to the other the Emunand partition is not copied over. There was a program for PCs that could copy the emunand partition over as well but I can't remember what it's called because nobody has had any need for it for many years as emunand is not recommended anymore.

So do would it be a matter of like... switch to SysNAND on my old SD card so I can THEN copy the files to the new card?

Yes much easier and better to just move the emunand to the 3ds following the 3ds hacks guide posted above

    I want a 120hz 4k tv but crazy how more expensive the 120hz over the 60hz are. Or even more crazy is the price of 8k's.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Mostly why you never see TV manufacturers going post 60hz
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I only watch tv when i goto bed, it puts me to sleep, and I have a nas drive filled w my fav shows so i can watch them in order, commercial free. I usually watch Married w Children, or South Park
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Stremio ruined my need for nas
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I stream from Nas to firestick, one on every tv, and use Kodi. I'm happy w it, plays everything. (I pirate/torrent shows/movies on pc, and put on nas)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Kodi repost are still pretty popular
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What the hell is Kodi reposts? what do you mean, or "Wut?" -xdqwerty
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Google them basically web crawlers to movie sites
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    oh you mean the 3rd party apps on Kodi, yea i know what you mean, yea there are still a few cool ones, in fact watched the new planet of the apes movie other night w wifey thru one, was good pic surprisingly, not a cam

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    That's where stremio comes to play never got a letter about it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just use a VPN, even give him my login and password so can use it also, and he refuses, he's funny.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I had to find and get him an old style flip phone even without text, cause thats what he wanted. No text, no internet, only phone calls. Old, old school.

    @BigOnYa, Lol I bought a new USB card reader thing on AliExpress last month for I think like 87 cents. Free shipping from China... It arrived it works and honestly I don't understand how it was so cheap.
