Quick question.

I'm on a on firmware 4.5 and everything was working well. I decided to give the new GW 3.0 a shot, and everything is working just fine actually.
But what I wanted to know was if it's possible for me to downgrade back to GW 2.7, just because it's easier for me to boot into gateway mode using the DS profile exploit. And if is it is possible, can anyone please explain how it can SAFELY be done?

The reason for that is that Smash Bros. eats up all available RAM on your 3DS, even the internal running OS is overwritten. -- As such it has to crash back to plain system, nothing can be done about that, even on an original untouched 3DS using the original Smash Bros. cartridge, you will notice it does a quick reboot of your 3DS when exiting the game.
it's possible to prevent this by launching another app which forces it to close without restarting the 3ds.

I assumed 3.0 could still be loaded with the DS profile exploit, so that 4.x users don't unnecessarily lose that convenience, but can it not?

Emunand doesn't seem to be working for me without a Gateway card.

Do I need one or can I boot emunando without it? All I get is a black screen.

Bump... I'm wondering this too. I'm confused as to why there is almost no information about this anywhere here yet, you'd think it would be a hot topic.

On higher firmwares also? I only tried the browser launch. This is so awesome. Now I will get one for my kid! They probably just multiplied their customer base by 100 fold.

NO

DS profile exploit works only in 4.X even with the new update 3.0

I quite like the browser exploit since you can just bookmark it or not change the page. Boot browser and wait for it to do it's thing. Bam in GW mode.

Awesome stuff.

Prolly because people who discuss in this topic actually have gateway.

That was a derpy-derp move on my part, I posted here without even trying that....
Anyway, I can confirm that the DS Profile exploit method for booting into gateway mode still works.
Thank you kind sir for you help!

Why did they burn an exploit instead of using the Mii Maker for every 3DS?

Because the webkit 'Browser Exploit' one is already patched by big 'N' in their 9.3 release.

The Mii Maker one is (another story) best to use it for other things, and for more protected New 3DS models.

Wondering what if 1 day gateway decides not to support the card anymore and shut down its server? And what if that site got DoS? Will that means gateway will be totally useless except for ppl with 4.x version?

    Is it piracy if it was released for free? Not in my opinion, but I also think it's not piracy if buying it isn't owning it, and it's not piracy if you can't buy it from the original creators anymore.
