How to update a n3ds emunand from 9.0 to 9.5 ?
Hi all, just got a new 3DS for a present and not opened it yet. have just been reading the forum and it looks that the latest firmware I'm likely to have is 9.9 and for that my only option for 3DS games Is a sky3ds (rather than a gateway) , am I correct please?
Yes, your only way to run roms is Sky3DS
thank you. I have 9.7 so I hope this will work.
Will I come to learn what things like emunands and sysnands are from just playing roms? Or is that for more advanced applications like emulators etc?
Download 9.5.0-23(your consoles region) > Place folder onto N3DS' internal mSD > Launch Emunand > Launch your Title Manager of choice (I use BigBlueMenu / Devmenu if there are any issues) > Install all cia.
Be absolutely sure you're in Emunand when you update - If you go into Settings to check, then back out, it'll kick you to Sysnand!
Best to have Unlinked Nands & have different themes for Sys & Emu to easily tell the difference between the two.
From where ? Just to be sure , I put the cias in the root of the msd card , correct ?

It doesn't really matter where you place the files, but leaving them in a folder and placing it in the root directory is the easiest to navigate to / install all from.
Just a final question , would this make redo emunand all together ?
All this will do is update your firmware to 9.5.0-23.
You'll still have your friend code - nnid - installed games - ect
Got it , thank you very much .
To play it safe, you can download the EmunandTool - Insert your N3DS' mSD into the computer > Extract Nand. This will give you a backup of your Emunand. If anything goes wrong, you can just use inject Nand to restore that backup.
This is the software to download the firmware ,right ? I tried to , but it doesn't seem to do anything (I have 32bit pc)
EmunandTool just makes a backup of your SDs Nand.
For Firmware, you need to download it from 'that 3ds site with isos'
Nintendo took down the firmware files from their servers, that made 3DNUS useless AFAIK since it was just a download serverI meant 3DNUS , is it not ?

Right, 3DNUS can only be used to download the latest firmwares now.
