Hacking Help? Installing CFW?

[lone_wolf323]

Wait, QuantumCat told me CFW doesn't require much space at all. On the backup essential files section, it says you should have at least 1.2gb-1.3gb of storage on your SD card? I thought you didn't need much space at all?

the 1.2gb of space is for the nand backup. it will be a fairly large size. You can then move that to your pc and off of the card to return space again

You don't need that much space for CFW, that's for making a NAND backup which is just a good idea in general.

Alright. But can I just the wireless management feature to do the Backup thing? I mean, even if it is crappy, it still works right?

Alright, can I still use wireless management though (even if it's crappy and takes a couple minutes?)

You can do whatever you want. As I said, I'd recommend against it for large files, but my recommendations aren't law.

Alright. Don't really have a microSD card reader, so I can't insert it into the computer. How long do you think the process will take, when I use the MicroSD card management feature?

Approx 20 mins if you got a good Wi-fi signal.
