Hi there,
I posted the thread here because think it may be related to how Nintendo get the information about your consoles.
I had a 2DS, which is B9S, and installed a custom theme and some cia homebrews.
I restored it with my clean 11.2 NAND backup (no custom theme), download Youtube etc from the eshop and than updated to 11.4 again, and never used custom theme again.
In the Data Management Nintendo 3DS software section, I only can see youtube etc which I downloaded from the eshop.
Today, I used Format System Memory in the settings, after that surprisingly, my theme become the custom theme I used before, and in the Data Management Nintendo 3DS software section, I can see all the homebrews I installed before just with a cross on the titles.
I guess the console must store information about the machine on the server, and when we do a system memory format, it download the information from the server and tell the console to recover to certain status. So Format System Memory is not a real format but more like a system restore, and not restore to the initial status but some "restore point" of your console.
Please let me know if I'm wrong.
Cheers,
