I have a GBA VC game that I have lost the CIA to on a backup of my sysnand. I want to move this app over to my current sysnand, but I don't exactly know how to. I can access the files using godmode9, but from there I am lost. Any guidance would be appreciated.
That app file is the CXI (look that up if you want to), which is in essence all you want. Makerom should be able to make a CIA from it, but for the actual commands you are on your own.
Thank you for leading me in the right direction!
I managed to extract it (blank romFS, and a large ExeFS code.bin file...) but when I repacked it using 3dsbuilder, I got a cia of ~128mb from a 16mb CXI file...
Using makerom, I need an RSF file... (Currently looking that up)

The smallest size a 3ds .cia file comes in is 128mb, hence 3dsbuilder
probably added files to increase the size to 128mb. My guess is that it won't work, but your welcome to install it and try.The smallest size a 3ds .cia file comes in is 128mb, hence 3dsbuilder
Oh, that would make sense hahaha
Devmenu flagged it as an invalid CIA and wouldn't install it.
yes, on cdn the tmd is decrypted anyway.
you can re encrypt the contents, after removing your unique console encryption, using aescbc if you know the right key to make it neat, then use makecdncia like normal and you could build a legit cia

oh ok, but you wouldn't need to use from cdn because i was answering the question like how you asked, from the sd contents
i would personally just recreate or find the cia online, faster than converting to cia.
but yes, it's possible

He's saying that you can generate a 3DS/CIA file like you would a title downloaded from the CDN, not that you have to download it from the CDN.
You will have to make a ticket, and decrypt the stuff on your SD card to remove your unique encryption. Then maybe encrypt but I think not necessary. It is possible but really, not worth it for something like this
If you have a CXI, you just need to know the content index (if the file isn't renamed and still a number, you're set!)
So if you only have 00000004:
makerom -f cia -o TheGame.cia -content 00000004:0:0x04 -minor 1
