Do games load faster from a 3DS cartridge or a Class 10 95MB/s SD Card on a hacked New 3DS?
Should be same speed
Kind of a nooby question here but I am using Lumas3DS with no Gateway atm
Other than gateway is there anyway to get more space, Ihave a 3dsgb MicroSD almost running out of space

Can I use a 64gb MicroSD with Luma3DS
is there a way to make more space without Gateway/without deleteing Games?
The only way that comes to mind is getting a bigger SD card. You can copy files from card to card and they'll work
For using 64GB+, you need to format it to FAT32 before copying the files over to it. Use GUIFormat for that

I see, what is the biggest size supported?
64GB?, 128GB? I thought only 32GB FAT32 was the biggest, interesting, ill try this soon

Truly, sky is the limit. Different brands of SD's might work a bit better than others though, but it shouldn't be horrid. I use a 64GB Class 10 Lexar MicroSD, and it works fine ^.^

Hi, recently I installed arm9loaderhax, Luma3DS, and injected the FBI with some cias (freeShop and hblauncher). Now the cias, and games I downloaded from the freeShop do not appear on the home screen, but they are still in the data management, in the software titles.

What can I do to make the cias, and games appear on the home screen again?

Thank you.

1. Make sure your NNID is signed in (button at top of touch screen in System Settings)
2. If that doesn't work then try installing tickets in bulk using tikShop (available from the TitleDB feature of FBI). Any that don't reappear you'll have to reinstall the cia of (if pirated) or delete from System Settings and redownload from the eShop (if bought).

Hi, the NNID is signed in, but when I try to install the tikShop, it says it failed to install (code: 0xf9608022).

Also, I discovered that I can run some of the games that I downloaded from the freeShop with the injected FBI in the "Health and Safety", but when I press the home button while playing, it says "SD Card has been removed"
What can I do to fix the sd?

Thank you.

Hey I'm pretty new to all of this and was wondering if I could get some help. I attempted to get freeshop on 3 separate 3ds's and they all turned out perfect. But when I tried to do the process for my new 3ds while watching this guide, it seemed the section where you load homebrew launcher and then proceed to click the safehax tab has given me problems ? I even had a 3ds cartridge in my ds. Still nothing, I must have done for like 2 days now spending like an hour and a half both times. Does anyone happen to have a solution to all this or a video guide I may follow? Btw, my new 3ds is on fw 11.2.0-35U. Thank you to any reply.

Not sure what the issue is but as for all unexplained SD card problems you should test it using H2testw with a full read write check to see if it is damaged or fake.

I am doing the test right now, it will last around 50 minutes, but it says "Warning: Only 12316 of 31967 MByte tested."
What's wrong with the other MBytes?

Thank you.

It finished and tested only 12316 of the 31967 MByte, now it is verifying. Is the other part corrupted or something?

Thank you.
Maybe you had an emuNAND and the primary partition is set to it. You could try getting emuNAND9 (can find it on github, and you can run the bin file as a Luma payload like Hourglass9) and format the card for no emuNAND. That might clear up your problems. If it doesn't, try testing it again and hopefully it will be able to test the whole card.

But can't h2testw only test the unused blocks (because it does so by writing onto the SD card)? So if 20GB of that SD card is in use, it cannot test it? So .. did you actually use the program on an empty SD card?

1). How do I revert a CFW N3DS to normal for selling? Format the SD card and I'm good to go?

Do you really think your CFW is installed onto the SD card only? It kinda is, but A9LH is a requirement and it's definitely not installed onto the SD card. You can remove A9LH if you want with Decrypt9 by restoring a NAND backup and not using the (keep a9lh) step, OR you can install Kecleon to hide the fact A9LH is installed if you're lazy .. OR if you're smart you'll sell it online (as has been said before) and use the A9LH as a selling point to get more money - which you would. Don't be stupid and sell it to Gamestop.

If I format the card for no emuNAND, will my files and downloaded games be lost?

You are right, only the available space can be tested, so it is testing whats left on the sd; sorry for the misunderstanding.

This was the result:

Warning: Only 12316 of 31967 MByte tested.
The media is likely to be defective.
20.1 MByte OK (41280 sectors)
12.0 GByte DATA LOST (25181888 sectors)

0 KByte slightly changed (< 8 bit/sector, 0 sectors)
12.0 GByte corrupted (25181888 sectors)
0 KByte aliased memory (0 sectors)
First error at offset: 0x0000000000000000
Expected: 0x0000000000000000
Found: 0xffffffffffffffff
H2testw version 1.3
Writing speed: 3.86 MByte/s

Thank you.

Hello can someone give me some pointers or just guide me on the right direction here.

In a few weeks I'll be upgrading from my current o3ds XL with Luma3DS and A9HL to a n3ds XL which I plan set up with Luma3DS + A9HL using 3ds.guide. I plan to give my o3dsxl to my SO so we can both play games such as a pokemon and Mario kart. I would love to transfer all my data from the old 3ds to the new one. So I was planning on doing a system transfer after I completed the 3ds.guide. my questions are:

1) Will that be possible?
2) Will this affect in any way the old 3ds CFW setup I have?
3) Will I be able to create a new NNID for my SO on the old 3ds?
4) Is there anything that I should keep in mind while doing all this stuff? (Other than the "Do not close the lid on N3DS while on 2.1")

1. Yes. I and many others have done this. Though content you don't actually own, won't transfer. IIRC, just reinstalling the corresponding CIA files will bring them back, though you should probably make backups of your saves anyways, I mean with CFW that's so super easy, so why risk it?
2. Nope. Both systems will still have CFW. The Source will be reset though and you'll have to go through the initial setup of it.
3. Yup, sure can.
4. Make sure to follow every step. Don't skip NAND backups. And if you're ever unsure of anything, just ask here and someone will answer.

Great, thank you for the help. A few questions now, sorry.
1) What are good or fast ways to make copies of my save files. I only know of save manager that comes with the homebrew starter kit and well I only ever used it for pokemon. I imagine using that for every game might be a problem.
2) What do you mean by source and initial setup? I think I missed something there.
