Hacking Gateway 3DS working on the New Nintendo 3DS.

[Sonicx64]

If I were forced to make a guess, I'd say 00:00 GMT, January 1st.

I'm not forced to make a guess, though.

I'm not sure if Gateway makes prompt updates like that based on time looking at the past times on their website.

But they had an update last year on January 1st at 10:46am GMT

Its still 5am 31/12 here in france so, if they're from europe or something near i don't think they will post anything at this time x).

For me the half of day passed and tomorrow is holiday but i still can't play any game

The last thing I would want to deal with on New Years Day is server issues from the deluge and trying to get support from my hosting firm. No prediction, but if I were Gateway, at this point, I would wait until Jan 2.

It happening mate! I expect it within 24 hours from now. Major disappointment must be avoided from gateway Pls

Ditto that, Gateway. Make this cranky old law school student happy.

Or just say screw it, if the server goes down, we'll repair it the next day. take the rest of the day off

Exactly. Nursing a hangover, swallow some more Advil, take a bong hit and stick my head back under the pillow. I was there once.

At least the downloads are off site, who wants to bet the three downloads will die?

I'm betting there will be more than just 3 mirrors for their most anticipated update ever. There are many more users this time around.

QR codes do more than just that. They tell the system to download a package. That package is on a server. Thst server will be flooded once people start using it.

EDIT: I'm just saying why a simple Print screen isn't necessarily going to work.

No, actually they don't... Or rather some QR codes do but not all (or even most). Most of the ones you are probably used to contain URL's to the things they are supposed to help you get to and I suspect this is why many people think this. QR codes can contain absolutely anything w/in space limits: URL's, pics, programs, a letter to your granny, music, Crashmo levels, Ninjhax's ROP chain, Mii's; they just need software to interpret the data they contain.

If you doubt this turn off your 3DS' WiFi (hell, disable the WiFi on your router if it makes you feel better), and start scanning codes in Mii Maker at this site. You will get the Mii's you scan immediately, they will not download it later when you can connect to a server.

The initial payload of an exploit is usually and necessarily very small and just directs the system to start running "Launcher.dat" (GW 3DS), "boot.elf" (Wii HBC), etc. The activation, if it is QR code based, can and most likely will be contained completely in that QR code. In fact, carrying it around on a piece of paper will most likely become the new "blue cartridge" if this proves to be the activation method.

This isn't CFW or the Homebrew Channel on your Wii or any such. It will not be permanently on your system. Every time you leave GW mode you will need to reactivate the exploit... And ask the people on 4.5 w/ GW's who accidentally updated their sysNAND while they thought they were on emyNAND just how easy it is to leave GW mode.

Sorry if someone already addressed this, but I'm on page 573 out of 593 and trying to catch up.

And sorry, 2Hack, you seem an alright guy, but I couldn't let this misinformation stand. :-/

Y2k15 is going to cause the Gateway site to be shut down forever, and the update will never been seen again. The lost update.

I just got my persona Q 3ds xl edition and its 8.1 so im all set

I've been lurking this thread for a bit, as well as asking one question. So no one will probably recognize me.

Anyways. I just finished buying THIS Micro SD. And I'm planning on getting a gateway on THIS site.

A couple of questions I want to ask, however. And I apologize if I sound like a noob, but I want to double check to see if I understand correctly.

1. Has anyone heard/bought from the site I'm planning on getting a gateway from?
2. From what I understand, emuNAND shares the same data as sysNAND, minus games installed from .cia, right?
3. I have some legit games on my sysNAND. None of them will be affected by gateway/emuNAND, correct?
4. What's the point of using eShop on emuNAND if everyone's using .cia for just about everything?
-4a. Is it even possible to update games, weather it be from .cia or legit through eShop while on emuNAND?

That's about it for now.

kthx.

1 Eachmall.me is where I got mine. It's legit.
2 Initially. You can redownload all eshop games. Entering Data Management on sysnand i believe deletes all installed .cias. Formatting emunand will "unlink" it. You will then have a different 3ds system on emunand. You can no longer redownloal/use your old NNID
3 Downloaded or Carts can be played in Emunand Classic mode except DS(i) games.
4 Eshop allows downloading games that might not be online as cia/3ds files. Nothing on the eshop can be free.
4a Yes

1) I have not heard of it. I strongly suggest buying solely from authorized resellers to avoid any fakes. I mean, if you save a buck buying from a random seller, then find out it's fake, you still lose a ton of cash. Call it 'peace of mind tax'
2) emunand is just that. An Emulated sysNAND that runs off of your SD card.

4. Eshop is convenient, cia is a hassle.
4.5) yes

I guess I'm not getting an answer from gateway ... Plz!!! Gateway don't fail me!!!!

Settle down kiddo. All will be well.

I'll go send an email to gateway if it appeases you, k?

Man.....you're behaving like an impatient grand daughter.

I ordered mine from eachmail, the seller sent it about 3 days after order, despite "ships in 24 hours"

should be fine, have some myself.

seems easier to download updates on eshop than hunting for them, pulling out the sd, installing etc.

a lot of posts here say it is, so probably.

4. Eshop is convenient, cia is a hassle.

cia is much easier than going through the slow process of loading the eshop and downloading as if it was 56kbps all over again. cia? I just open winscp, ftbrony, drag over the file and install.

But eshop is much more straight forward imo. That's what I was getting at.
