Hacking 3DS NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

[Fylosopher]

i have an O3DS with latest firmware (10.3), and i just bought a 9.0 N3DS XL. In the O3DS, there're save data of Mii Plaza, Pokemon Shuffle and Rumble World i wish to keep
i'm trying this guide https://gbatemp.net/threads/tutoria...-custom-themes-all-in-one-noobs-guide.395652/ but 1 problem is i dont have OOT, neither CN nor Ironfall. The rest options are only for up to 10.1 firmware, while mine is 10.3
Are there any other solutions?

There is explained how you can use Browserhax and PastaCFW to install a Cubic Ninja game, then you can boot into the Gateway Menu using that.

You have to install the GBA games both to sysnand and emunand to play them in emunand.

You can't play nds games with rxTools, you'll need a DS flashcart.

so i gotta inject fbi into systemnand then install in systemnand then install in en
munand,,,,,theyll then play in emunand ????? is that correct thank you so much am grateful m8te.....

If you are in 9.0 - 9.2 you could just use browserhax + PastaCFW + FBI.3dsx to install the games in sysnand (SD destination, not NAND), there is no need for FBI injection.

Also you don't need a patched AGB firm anymore, just use a recen rxTools build.

If you get the Sky3ds+ you can install Ninjhax and use that to install Ironhax again.
That way you can boot Ironhax to load the region free launcher and use out of regiom games in the Sky3ds+ without having to scroll through the roms to load Cubic Ninja every time.

That sounds like a better option. How do I go about doing that? I'm still waiting for the Sky3ds+ to be released, but it'd be great to know before ordering.

I'm not going to tell you where to get the rom, so... Feel free to google that up.

Or you could update to 9.2, which to me is the better choice because you can coldboot CFW:

Hello

So I am pretty new to the Homebrew and Flashcart scene. I own a N3DS and I am on Ver. 10.3.0-28U, bust.. I know (I've been reading up on a lot of comments regarding this firmware). But, I just recently bought this 3DS, it is the Zelda Gamestop Exclusive. I really want to know if there is any regret-less way (non bricking or harmful) to play GBA titles on this specific handheld? I bought a Link between worlds and would like to at least start the story from a relevant point in the timeline.

Any suggestions?

Hi Alex, sadly the only way to play homebrew games on your New 3DS is to get Cubic Ninja and install Ninjhax or get Ocarina of Time with a Powersaves pro to install OOTHAX in order to run homebrew.

There is a GBA emulator named mGBA that runs pretty good with the New 3DS in 10.3 (Not full speed so far but they'll get there).

And you can use Blargsnes 1.3 to play the SNES Zelda games.

If you want to play 3DS roms the only option for 10.3 is Sky3ds, they are releasing a new one called Sky3ds+ so you can check information about it.

You could even load a Cubic Ninja rom in the Sky3ds+ and load homebrew from there.

I'm on RXEmuNAND 10.3 U, SysNAND 9.2 U. What would happen if I do a system format within the EmuNand? Would it format the EmuNAND only or would it format the actual SysNAND? I want to link my NANDS but keep the DSiWare game I have on the SysNAND.

Is it safe to update emunand on an old 3ds XL with rxtools to newest firmware?

Okay, first time using a forum in a long time but you guys are always the best! I have got the very dated 3DS Link card and I want to just be able to load the fairly latest ROMs. I have been unable to run any newer ones at all. It just freezes at the red 3DS waves. I am on FW 4.5. I have looked into updating the emunand but have no idea how to boot into the menu that will allow me to even create the emunand partition. All the tutorials I have seen are for the Gateway card. My other option was to install a custom FW but again, all of the tutorials seem very overwhelming especially seeing as I have no idea how to put the 3DS into emunand mode using the 3DS Link card. I have found out that that card is an exact clone of the Orange 3DS card and the R4i Gold Deluxe card, but again, there is no Launcher.dat past v4.02b. So, basically, does anyone know why these games won't run? I have read and read and read pages and forums and just am struggling to get any answers anywhere. Help is very much appreciated! Thanks guys.

. . .your card is not a clone of r4i gold or orange they are all gateway clones and as such gateway guides and files will should work for them (but i would avoid the latest as they may be bricking consoles again) personally i would use cfw instead of a flashcard any day its really not as hard as you think [Tutorial] Installing rxTools Custom Firmware - (Old 3DS and 2DS)

but as far as updates you only need to be in emunand and go to system settings and go directly to the update option and use it (make an emunand backup first Emunand Tool

Thanks for this, I have tried putting the Gateway Launcher.dat on to the SD card, got to the settings and then loaded the profile and there was no crash unfortunately. By running this exploit, is that putting my 3DS into emunand? What makes me think that I'm not is that when I go to the settings, the FW of my 3DS has no different characters before or after it after I've ran the profile exploit. Hopefully this makes sense and I appreciate your patience.

dsiware must be installed to sysnand detonation nand (if using fbi) then you can play from sysnand
if you want to play them from emunand then repeat the install in emunand as well but it must be done in sysnand still

You can't play them in emunand, DSiware works in sysnand only, unlike GBA.

DSi games can be ran through sysNand, and reportedly emuNand as well. Install to sysNand to play them in sysNand; install to emuNand AND sysNand if you want to play them in emuNand. DSi cias must be installed to NAND destination (if using FBI).

GBA games can be ran through emunand, or sysnand. They still have to be installed to both emunand and sysnand if your nands are unlinked! GBA games should be installed to SD (if using FBI).
Personally I just install them to Sysnand and play them from there.

@Tony_93 also the reason i thought you could play dsiware from emunand
