    Gaming Mii Plaza data getting corrupted. Emunand or SD card issue?

    So on 9.8 EmuNAND with GW, I lost my Monster Manor data last night and had to start from scratch. Nothing else was impacted. However, this morning my Puzzle Swap encountered an error when loading data and reset with no new puzzles other than the default. Is this an SD card problem or could...

    ROM Hack How NOT to hack a 3DS. A comedy of errors and mistakes.

    That's pretty much what happened to me. I was in gateway mode and it flashed to sysnand. I remember reading something about some code or changes being injected into the nand that causes it not to boot and it's not compatible with sysnand.

    Nope. There was no emunand partition setup on it and that's the card that was formatted. That's where the sysnand.bin backup was after it was dumped with gateway.

    ROM Hack How NOT to hack a 3DS. A comedy of errors and mistakes.

This is why I was messing with the second one I picked up to try and get it on a newer firmware to play...

    ROM Hack How NOT to hack a 3DS. A comedy of errors and mistakes.

    I used both Recuva and Get Back Data FAT. Nothing on the SD card has been written to, but it won't recover any files from the root. It recovered directories with EXDATA and DCIM folders. But the Root just shows as empty. I've done Deep Scan and nothing. The HDD I'm using can't recover since...

    If a mod sees this, can you move this post to Flashcards & Customfirmwares as I got the wrong forum and this might be off topic here. Thanks.

    ROM Hack How NOT to hack a 3DS. A comedy of errors and mistakes.

    I wouldn't say I had a good reaction when I learned both backups were hosed. A lot of swearing, sulking, and having to accept defeat. It was a sure victory that I managed to completely bungle. I was literally jumping for joy when that damn thing mounted in diskimager and then jaw dropping to...

    ROM Hack How NOT to hack a 3DS. A comedy of errors and mistakes.

    To start off, thanks to GBATEMP community. You guys are a huge fountain of knowledge and discussion. I never had anything to contribute until now. This story starts with an easily avoidable mistake but easy to make. I had 2 O3DS and a Gateway card. I wanted to get my second O3DS running on a...
