Hello, I am having some troubles with themes on Reinand 10.5, sysnand 9.2

I just logged in my Nintendo Network ID for the pokè bank, and I am trying to install some themes with a cia, but this doesn't work, why does it happen? Is there a way to fix it?

can I use gateway saves on multiple system?
for instance, can I play using gateway in one 3ds, and pop the gateway to another 3ds and continue the game?

Hello everyone, I have successfully downgraded to 9.2 on my Old 3DS with Menuhax as my way to get into Homebrew Launcher. I've tried to use CakesFW and ReiNand Mod https://gbatemp.net/threads/reinand-mod-o3ds-n3ds-sysnand.411110/ and they never boot with CtrBootManager or from Homebrew Launcher. My goal is to keep sysnand on 9.2 and be able to play online, have regionfree and continue using the e-shop using the emunand. Ever since that new update I haven't been able to play MHX or Smash. I followed the instructions the best I could, but they always boot to a black screen. I've even tried different firmwares and still black screens.

Hey guys. I'm not 100% sure what to do next. I've downgraded my n3ds and installed reiNAND. Can someone point me toward the next step, if any? The guide I followed is almost 2 months old, so I'm wondering if there have been any updates or whatever.

can you go into emunand at all? have you tried holding the L button while chosing cfw in ctr?

I don't think I'm booting to EmuNand because I turned my SysNand to red as a way to let me know I'm in Sys. The homebrew launcher and FBI cia's don't show up, so I'm assuming I'm not in emu. My Emunand does show up in Cake when I hold down L to get into Cakes menu though.

edit: I definitely have a working emu Nand and Cakes will definitely boot into it, but the .cia I installed for fbi and homebrew launcher vanished for some reason. My SysNand is a regular gray color and doesn't have my friends list or NNID (intended since unlinked). Can I get those .cia back?

How can I log into my NNID on EmuNAND?
When I go into the NNID settings the console reboots into SysNAND.
I am on O3DS with Cakes CFW and EmuNAND on FW 10.5.0-30.
Can anyone help?
I want to get the Pokemon VC titles on Saturday, but therefore I need to log into my NNID. :(
Also I have to renew my Pokemon Bank subscription....
Any help would be appreciated!

I think I have. I have two folders in my Nintendo 3DS folder. Is there a way of knowing which homebrew I'm currently on? sysNAND or emuNAND? And which NAND menuhaxx is writing to?

Thanks

No. But it looks like for some reason you have MenuHax on Emunand as well. Try changing the theme of Emunand.

I can't really find my answer through these 800 pages here, but I have an SD Card back up of all my games and save files before I had to delete them all through the emunand format. My EmuNand has the same "Nintendo 3DS" folder with the same folders as my original SD card back up. Is it as easy as dragging the files in or am I kind of screwed? I had 40 legitimate games on there and I guess I wouldn't mind re-downloading them on emuNand from the e-shop if I can save the save files.

Ok, I followed the guide here: https://gbatemp.net/threads/tutorial-installing-rxtools-custom-firmware-3ds-and-2ds.390867/

In section 6, I downloaded Tinyformat and placed only the .cia in my SD card in the CIAs folder. I didn't put the Tinyformat folder with it's contents on my card because the instructions did not say to.

I installed the CIA, then launched it.

It reset my 3ds back to factory settings where I had to input the time, date, wifi setup, etc.

My health and safety icon is gone so there goes my CIA installer and it looks like I'm back to step 4a.

What did I do wrong?

Great, thanks that worked.

Also, the 3D effect seems not to be working properly in emuNAND. Any ideas?

You're on N3DS right? Just close the 3DS and open it back up.

Try booting into pasta CFW and see if it's still there.

Ok, here's what I've done so far:

Set up rxTools for accessing via the browser or the Homebrew Launcher
made a NAND backup
Installed BigBlueMenu to SysNAND and used it to install Devmenu_2x
created EmuNAND
Unlinked the NANDs
Updated EmuNAND to latest version
I can't backup the EmuNAND using EmuTools 1.0.1, 1.0.2, or 1.0.3. I'm using win 7 x64 and a SanDisk Extreme 32GB SDHC (SDSDXNE-032G-GNCIN), and I get that file 87 error that others get, but I'm updated on EmuNAND to latest version so I guess I'm OK for now.

Should I install Menuhax at this point? What else are some other homebrew apps that are good? I have some other questions which I'm sure is just a matter of doing some reading to find the answers.

-What are the most recent emulators called for NES, SNES, MAME, Genesis, etc and can they run smoothly using cia or do I need to install something different?
-How do I make backups of my 3DS XL games?
-How do I play the backups?

Any help in the right direction is much appreciated. This is on a 3ds XL
