Hacking Quick question about 3ds and gateway

[trigao]

I use 4gb SD in my 3DS, since i want to install some cia games, 4gb appears to be small

how i change to a bigger card?

copy and paste the 4gb content to 8gb one? i'm worring about my saves and stuffs

I wanna say it's that simple.. I did that when I switch to an 8GB card. O.o

You just copy over the files from the old SD card to the newer one. BUT first let the 3DS format the card.

And update his FW in the process? Dude, you wack?

@ Phantom_User - Wait you have to update your 3DS in order to format an SD card?

IIRC no

That's incorrect, formatting the SD Card does NOT update the FW of the DS.

 

[SomecallmeBerto]

IIRC no

That is what I thought. I'm thinking Phantom_User misunderstood me.

 

[Skull Kiddo]

I'd guess because you said "let the 3DS format the card"?

I also got a quick question, i'm about to buy my gateway + micro sd

Does this micro sd card works with gateway?
Samsung 32GB micro SD EVO UHS-I Class 10 48MB/s

Probably as long as its formatted to FAT32, correct me if im wrong.

 

[trigao]

thank you for all the answers

btw i was wondering, how format my SD card will update my FW

 

[Skull Kiddo]

It will not update your FW, don't worry. Just a misunderstanding

 

[trigao]

Probably as long as its formatted to FAT32, correct me if im wrong.

i'm using a 64gb sandisk class 10, but when formated in FAT32, gateway gives me fileread error or something.... so i format in exFAT, works like a charm since then...

idk if my card is falty or anything else

 

[Skull Kiddo]

I don't know then... never owned a Gateway (much less a 4.5 3DS).

Misunderstanding Berto, my apologies
