Hacking 3DS Flashcarts - News, Updates, and Support Thread

[mainframe004]

I am running into a strange issue. I backed up my NAND, converted it to EmuNAND, and booted into GW mode. I go into settings to check the version and see GW3D 4.5.0-10U. Good. I then try and back out and it freezes and when it comes back, it is no longer in gateway mode and the setting menu shows Ver. 4.5.0-10U. It's like it reboots when I try and close the settings from within gateway mode.

This is normal. Exiting from the System Settings app is equivalent to rebooting the console without turning it off, which would cause the 3DS to boot into the physical NAND.

Can anybody explain to me what you have to do after you created a backup System Nand from your 3ds? what do you do with that SD card? Do you deleted the file that in the 3ds SD card or keep it in there?

You should put the file that is created in the SD card as a result of the system NAND backup into a safe place such as your computer. You will need this file in case you accidentally update your system NAND instead of the emuNAND.

instaled emunand no problems, instaled youtube and it works great, but it is imposible to close app, it just showing closing apliication and never does, it trying to save something and cant on emunand partition. did a hard restart played a save from game and it also cant save 3ds sd card partition also. showing the same message.

I sure am glad this beta is getting so much testing from you guys. It means the kinks'll be worked out once I get it myself.

After you have transferred a copy of your backed up nand to a computer just pop the sd card back into the 3ds and keep following the instructions.

Hey guys, I'm just wondering if Nintendo can detect a system update from an emunand?
Any info will be appreciated.

HELLO , what can we do after install gateway ??

Play 3DS games from SD...lol...
Have you been living under a rock?
Sorry, i see you are new here.. you might have missed the hype.
If you goto the gateway website you can read all about what the card is for...

aargh, i'd love to be involved in the 'beta' but i'm not as the only UK Reseller is a useless tw*t i (aim to ship within 24hrs? more like 72) Amazingly ordered a R4i gold 3ds from nds-card the same day last week and it came before the UK gateway card even went live with tracking. I should have ordered the gateway from nds-card i know but i'm stuck waiting now. Card is in Liverpool 15 min train ride away. Cant pick up though. mis

Thanks for all the testing!

uk resller is called teensy.co.uk btw

did anyone try Bravely Default EUR-CONTRAST?
did it work with gateway 2.0b1?

It works with or without emunand and gateway 2.0b1.

Hope gateway team realizes that fat32 doesn't support >2GB files for their drag and drop feature. Some roms are too big to be able to stored in that filesystem, so they should use ntfs or something.

I thought, the fat32 limit was 4gb

Aye, FAT32 has a upper filesize limit of 4GB. But IIRC I've read in a review once that the 3DS platform was designed to handle cartridges up to 8GB, so that still wouldn't be enough and an alternative FS would be more prudent. Unless they would be able to handle split files akin to Wii backup loaders of course.

 

[justinkb]

You're right, it is 4GB minus 1 byte, my bad :-)

Anything about the removed rom dump feature?

Or any chance they could add region-free to Classic mode for retail imports?

 

[wiibomb]

I updated everything on the past sunday at the exact release of the gateway update.. and I even backed up my NAND alredy.. but every time I try to enter the emuNand it just does not work.. it always says Ver. 4.X.X in the setting app, is someone like me?

may be I'm doing something wrong.. just for the checks.. do I have to put the GW Mode button or the Classic mode button? either doesn't work, anyway..
