Apart from Sky+GW, is there any flash carts which have the 3ds cartridge "cover" (not sure how to word it?) I'm only familiar with R4s, not really other flash carts of my knowledge. Thanks!

I wouldn't really know. Maybe other 3DS mode compatible carts? That is kind of a 3DS cart thing, though I suppose a flash cart manufacturer wouldn't neccesarily HAVE to do that.

I'm talking about the shell casing that the chip is housed in.
As far as the DStwo goes, it actually sticks out a bit on the label side...the label is covering the CPU housed in there. That's the part that actually makes it a bit snug so...that's not a wise idea probably to take some sandpaper or a knife or something to it. :)

Okay well then it is what it is. Now if some one really cares about how snug it is than that some one could make the cart slot on the 3ds bigger by opening the 3ds and resizing the slot. And again I don't think its worth the effort but meh what ever.

Hi everyone! I haven't posted in there since forever!
I used to have Gateway with 4.5 Firmware and EmuNAND.
I am currently installing CFW on my Pal 3DSXL and I am getting an error with step 17 of the Plailect Guide : I activate "Show current NAND in System Settings", push start, and 3DS reboots to Sysnand.
After this, every attempt to launch Luma3DS gives a black screen, except if I push Select upon launch to get the menu where the "Show current NAND in System Settings" option is.
I was using latest Luma3DS, and tried with older ones, and still the same issue.
I searched a little bit, and I tried with another tool called ReiNAND, and the RedNAND is starting, I could even update it to the latest 10.7 firmware.
So can I continue on with the guide and ReiNAND? Or did I miss an important step somewhere?

Anybody having issues with shortcut for payload L+SELECT on v5.4?

I've had it working on previous build but after updating to v5.4 and renaming it from sel_name.bin to select_name.bin it's not working anylonger.

I have 2 Acekard 2i, one recovered from the dead and that one has a great fit. The issue I sometimes have is that the console stops reading the card already inserted and I have to remove it and insert it again or use an official game cartridge and then put acekard 2i again. It also happenes with my other acekard that has a tighter fit.

Guys is there a DS flashcart that has a "like perfect fit" in the 3ds because my r4ids from 4ids.cn sometimes does not want to come out lol it would be awesome if I could have a 3ds like case for it but I dunno[emoji14]I don't wanna apply pressure to the flashcart slot.

I'm confused about Luma's removal of AuRei 4's "you no longer have to care about reboot patches" feature.

I'm on O3DS, no A9LH and I have CtrBoot, is there a way to preserve that arrangement AND have DS-friendly mode permanently enabled?

Is your TWLFIRM patched on your NAND? Luma does it automatically and people have had problems when they used an already patched version.
It's not patched anymore.

I got it to work :D

Hi, Region and Language Emulation doesn't seem to work.
I'm on 10.7 U emunand, And Have pokemon Y game. tried Emulating JPN JP, Didn't work. Any solution?
Region emulation works through the NS application system application which sets the language for games. However, XYORAS don't use the NS for their language and is set by the savefile.

That being said, region emulation still works so you can get out of region event pokemon.
