@jdeath i need your specs please o3ds or n3ds fw version and emunand version also rx version

I was able to get NDS mode working in rxTools emunand with these versions. I think it's likely that there are other combinations that will work.

- rxTools daily build from October 2 2015
- sysnand 0x0004013800000102 version 0x1211
- sysnand 0x0004800f484e4841 version 0x1400
- emunand 0x0004013800000102 version 0x2271
- emunand 0x0004800f484e4841 version 0x2c00

This *did* work in emunand for NDS retail carts and for a fairly new R4i 3DS.

This did NOT work in emunand for the Gateway blue card; it only loaded in sysnand (loading it in emunand crashed the whole system / black screen "hold POWER" error).

o3ds, 9.0.0-20U sysnand, 10.1 emunand. Oct 2 RXtools nightly. I don't know how to get those hex codes.

Really, just trying to help, not to give false hope. If i could do it, thought it was easy!

I've done it on 2 separate systems, so can't be dumb luck.

Thank you for taking the time to do it. Maybe that will give more incentive for more people to try. :)
 
What region is your 3ds? Is there a list of TWL titles? and what was the other cia you said to install, the one that wasnt the TWL_FIRM
US version. The other file is the whitelist. You installed with DevMenu in emunand? You have the dbs folder there, if not reset the data management?
0004800F484E4841.cia MD5: 66e5f4b763b424ae279703a2994bcfed
0004013800000102.cia MD5: 066a5ce2db86494a078b4820a0d94a9b

ps. Legit carts work fine too.

I have Big Blue Menu, is that dev menu? Or is dev menu something else?
The Dbs folder isnt an issue, becausei can install any other cia, these ones just throw me an error. Maybe its because I have a EU console?
 
Big Blue (title launcher) is different than Dev Menu. I can't remember if I tried Big Blue. I used DevMenu because someone earlier in the thread suggested it.

jdeath is (almost) correct BBM and devmenu2x are both versions of devmenu but devmenu2x is . . . well without going into a overly long explanation/story devmenu2x has the ability to overwrite older versions of cia files & BBM cant if you want to install the (whitelist fix) then you need either devmenu2x or fbi v.1.4.14 (not a older or a newer one but 1.4.14)
How do you enable Dev mode on sysnand??
And does this work on rxTools emunand?
to enable rxtools devmode you load up rxtools menu and go to advenced and select devmode (newer versions of rxtools call it pasta mode)
Note devmode looks just like sysnand . . . in fact it is just with more & different patches applied to it

I just want to add, I think it depends on your version of the ds flash cart. I read somewhere there may be multiple versions of the gateway blue card. I had luck with a Gateway blue card in both emunand and sysnand, but an r4i-shdc.com v5 card only works in sysnand.

Couldnt find advanced settings on rxtools 2.6 menu. What now?
 
Thank you! Thank you!
I got an autistic kid who hung on to her R4i 3DS and wouldn't let go. So she was stuck at fw 4.x. This method works! Now I can update her 3DS.
