I was just wondering this because one of my amiibos is corrupted and is there a homebrew application, outside file, or other thing to fix it? Maybe you could use something like N2 to extract the save data, and then a homebrew something-or-other to overwrite the broken amiibo? Or a way to force delete the data? I just want my Mii Brawler back... )':

Sorry if I'm missing something very obvious here, I'm still new to amiibo hacking

So, I've been thinking about my broken amiibo, and I've come up with an idea that probably won't work but is worth a shot:

1. There has to be save data somewhere in N2. The device has to write to the amiibo from somewhere, right? I think that if someone can extract a non-corrupted save file from N2, this could work.

2. If the file was extracted, we would also need a homebrew application that could copy hacked amiibo data onto the system to overwrite the old stuff. We'd need to know where the amiibo backup goes, and somehow copy the new save fie onto that.

3. when I scan the amiibo, it will still say the data is corrupted, however, it gives you the option to 'restore the amiibo using the system data'. This didn't work the first time, which means that there's probably not a non-corrupted backup on the system. If a safe backup is there, it should copy the data back onto my amiibo, therefore restoring it.


I don't think this will work, and I'm still very novice in 3DS hacking, but if anyone could let me know if this could happen, or why not, that would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

If you have an Android phone you can write Amiibo data with TagMo, including editing Brawl data.
 
You mean the Mii Brawler? Also, I don't have an Android. ):
These might be of help:

You can't directly edit the data but you can copy it from another working amiibo if you have one. Keep in mind I don't think you can use the amiibo .bins that are floating around since they are full amiibo dumps whereas this only seems to contain the rewritable portion of the data. But someone could provide you a dump of a working one for you to write to yours.
