1) No. You need emunand 8.X to access Eshop. Gateway supports it, but only when the Gateway card is inserted.
2) No hardware mods. Just need to buy the cart.
http://gbatemp.net/threads/do-i-need-to-create-emunand-if-i-change-a-sd-card.371844/#post-5108989Hey guys. I'm trying to change the SD card I originally setup gateway with, but I'm having issues.
Steps I took where running / copying the Gateway 2.3 firmware to the new SD card. I ran the blue gateway card and I'm able to go into the profile to boot gateway and can boot games in gateway mode, I also tried to copy all of the SD card emunand files form the old SD card to the new one. It didn't work.
I'm unable to launch eshop or use friends list. It also says I'm still on original 4.5.0 even though i can launch software. Do I need to format emunand? I'm assuming though that'll erase my nintendo id and everyting I set up on the old emunand
Thanks for the reply! Sucks I can't get some Sm4sh demo action but I'm now certainly gonna buy a Gateway ASAP.
i have a 4.4 3ds xl.
and im about to buy a gateway, but should i wait to see if the hombrew scene will allow to play backups?, or buy the gateway?
what does trimming a 3ds rom do?
Currently on 2.2 Omega, any known issues of the 2.3 before I upgrade?
Actually, works fine with Pokèmon Y.It makes the ROM file smaller. Does not work with some ROMs and all Card2 ROMs.
Save files that are from 128kb chipset carts (IE Oot 3D, Kirby Triple Deluxe) can't be dumped and used on gateway, correct?
if you update using the cart it will update using the cart's FW update, you just have to make sure you go with the update prompt from the cart when you go to launch the game.Hello folks! I have a kinda noob question:
Let a X.X 3DS, a preloaded Z.Z update from Internet and a cartridge with Y.Y update built-in. X.X, Y.Y and Z.Z are three firmware revisions such that X.X < Y.Y < Z.Z
When I plug the cartridge and want to boot the game, which update is applied? Y.Y or ZZ?
Has someone tried this before, and did a record of this "experiment"?
