Hacking Gateway 3.1.0 N3DS Known Bugs

[the3dsguy]

Just posting some bugs and for others to do the same.
Does anyone have a solution to number 1?

1. Unwrapping cia installed files every time Gateway restarts.
- Fixed by formatting sysnand, remove microSD card before system format

2. 3D does not work in Gateway Mode
- Fixed by putting the 3ds to sleep and turning it back on again.

3. Booting up gateway and being stuck on white or black screen
- Fixed by trying again and again, eventually it will boot up fine.

4. There's a small bug that GW won't appear in all cases in front of your system menu version in emunand. Highly suggest changing themes between sys/emu to differentiate. Did update to Emunand 9.5 though (even without the GW)

5. To add another one to the pile for 8.1.0-0J: Going into system settings in EmuNAND does not show GW3D (like all the others), even with the original 4GB SD card that everyone says it shows with (at least for me).

6. On 8.1.0J, you cannot use the multi-rom menu on sysNAND GW mode, and on 8.1.0J emunand mode (in other words, you have to update the emuNAND to 9.5.0-23 to have the multi-rom menu working).

7. Regionfree does not work in classic mode

1- format either emunand or sysnand from system settings to unlink them, this is just because the 2 nands are sharing the same folder in the "nintendo 3DS" folder....formatting either emunand or sysnand will unlink them

2- yeah they arleary mentioned it in the release notes

3- try to wait a second before pressing A once in game......but dont wait to long....say about 1 second and it works fine, but if you wait around say about 5-10 seconds it seems to crash more, and if you hammer A as it loads it seems to crash

To fix the unwrapping of the cia files, you need to unlink your sysnand and emunand.

You don't have emunand on your gateway?

When you format emunand from the gateway menu, the sysnand and emunand are automatically linked.

for me, even though I go into emunand, when I press select the multi rom menu does not appear.
that's a bug

How comes some systems have bug and some haven't ?
I'm running all fine on both my N3DS XL latest versions.

Entering Classic mode without GW will have black screen on both screens. Need to have redcard all the time.

been that way ever since they added 7.x decryption....keeping features locked to GW users only

You forgot the most important annoyance:

4. Every thread that has been started since it's release is filled with Sky fanbois or overly entitled gw owners complaining about the release.
- Fixed by not replying to them

ok i fixed it -- well not fixed, it seems GW just does not support 8.1 very well, maybe in gw sysnand it was functional, i did not test, i immediately made emunand, but yeah i just had to update, i did it by letting the update download in sleep mode, in the home screen, then updated, and my emunand 9.5 is fine

Got the OoT exploit to work, backed up nand, setup emunand but when I boot into GW mode it will show the games when I press select but I can't tell if I am in emunand or not and am afraid to try and upgrade emunand to the latest system.

Any way to determine if I am in emunand?

I tried setting up a dummy wifi but when I shut down and restarted it showed up in real nand.

 

[cearp]

so, i am pretty sure you can add to the OP that this beta release does not support 8.1 very well (but no problem, just update)

very simple, just make some changes on the sysnand home menu, like make the icons the biggest size. then on emunand, the smallest size. this will show you that the nands really are different (if you are worried lol) - i updated in my emunand, i saw no GW text in the version, it went fine

I changed the theme in emunand and when I shutdown and restarted it appeared in sysnand so I am worried that they are the same and if I do an update it will update sysnand.

I will try the icon method.

well not really a 'method', but call it what you want
i think the themes data is stored on the sd card (in extdata) so that is why the changes are 'shared' between nands, because the change is not actually in nand.

As cearp said, theme changes will appear on both NANDs, unless you're using a CIA theme on one which I don't think will appear on the other.
