I have a V1 unpatched switch with sysnand and emunand using atmosphere 0.19.1. Both sysnand and emunand was on FW 11.0.1. I decided to update my sysnand OFW to 12.0.0 to be able to purchase a game from eshop. Now when I try to load back to emunand first it went error screen with some codes and after that it just goes to black screen. My sysnand with OFW 12.0.0 still works no problems. How can I be able to fix my emunand to make it work again?

because your on AMS 19, you also need to update the FW on your emunand. Do note that once you do, a lot of homebrews will stop working until the devs recompile it which will take a long while

First of all, the latest Atmosphere is 0.19.0. So you may be getting a wrong one.

Updating SysNAND shouldn't affect how you boot your old EMUNAND with old Atmosphere, let alone the latest one.

Another 3 things I suspect you need to check is upgrade Hetake to the latest version (1), and make sure your EMUMMC folder is intact (2). When upgrade Atmosphere, it's advised to move the old one onto PC, then get the new one on their whole (don't only merge and overwrite).

I had the same issue. I think it's because of the organization of Atmosphere's folders changes between 18 and 19.1. What I had to do to boot emuMMC was make a fresh install of Atmosphere, I deleted my old atmosphere folder and then copied the new one onto my SD. Everything worked flawlessly from there. Maybe give that a shot?

Edited for clarity

I've got the same issue and this didn't resolve it?

ETA Ah! But taking the game card out and trying again worked perfectly, emummc updated to 12.0 now and everything working perfectly!

How is the SD card formatted?

    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
