Hacking 3DS NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

[Apl_Juice]

Urg. Alright, I messed something up, but I have no idea what and how to fix it on a 9.2 n3ds. So I'm trying to set up reiNand again. I do menuhax to get to reiNand, then I do browserhax so I can install HBLauncher_loader and FBI to my emunand, but neither of them want to install. Here's the error message:

Install failed!
FBI.cia
Source: source_am_start_cia_install
module: module_nn_os
level: level_permanent
Summary: summary_wrong_argument
description: description_invalid_command

I did not want to open a new thread for this so I will ask here:

I was able like a month ago to instal GBA injects on my sys/emu NANDS, and I can play them with no issues, BUT, now for no apparent reason, I install any GBA inect and they DONT appear on my sys nand, and neither can play them on emunand.

The old injects I have are OK and all, but any new installed game just dont show up on both Nands.

USA O3ds, unlinked nands, sys 9.2U emu RX10.5.0.30U.

Just to make sure I'm understanding this correctly, you made an SD card backup, but do not have a sysNAND or emuNAND backup? Did you already dump your OTP? Or did the SD card die before you dumped it? Are you still on firmware 2.1?

Sorry I'm not too sure on how to answer this, but to simplify, I copied all the contents of the SD card right when I was stuck on the OTP verification part (and during that time after trying to get pass the verification process, the SD card just died).

I dont think that my emuNAND is on 2.1 because If i'm not mistaken, the OTP verification part comes after the downgrading, and since I was stuck at the verification part, I just keep on restoring, downgrading and then try to verify it.

Ok, I'm trying to figure out where exactly you're at in the guide. From what I can tell you were at Part 4, Section II, Step 15 (select "One Click Setup" on OTP Helper). At this point, OTP Helper was failing to validate your NAND. During the process of trying to get your NAND verified by OTP Helper, your SD card died.

You have a backup of the SD card you made by copying all of the files to your PC. You should also have a emuNAND_formatted.bin file somewhere on your PC if you're following the guide. Here's what you're going to want to do. Copy your SD card backup to the new SD card. If EmuNAND9 wasn't among the files you backed up, set up EmuNAND9 on your new SD card. Boot into the Homebrew Launcher, and boot EmuNAND9 from there. Select "Complete EmuNAND Setup" and follow the directions. Once it's finished, go to the main menu of EmuNAND9 and press select to eject your SD card. Copy your SD card backup to your SD card again. This time, you should also copy emuNAND_formatted.bin to your SD card as well. Go to "EmuNAND Manager Options" and choose "Clone file to EmuNAND." Select your emuNAND_formatted.bin. Once it finishes, you've wrote your emuNAND_formatted.bin back to your emuNAND partition.

After that, you should be able to continue from where you left off!

Anyone have a link to a guide or knows the process on how to play injected GBA roms that are cias ? I have al9h with aureinand with sysnand only.

Oh wow, thank you so much for the detailed instructions!

Yes, your description regarding my situation is spot on!
If I don't misunderstand your instruction, I think I will have to set up the EmuNAND9 first since my sd card is new and not yet converted to the EmuNAND thing (?).

So, just to clarify, I should copy all backups that I have (the ones that was stuck on part 4, section II, step 15) into the new sd card, set up the EmuNAND9 (to complete the emuNAND setup), eject it and recopy the whole backup data?
Sorry for repeating this, I'm just a bit confuse since It seems that I have to recopy the backup twice (is all data got wiped when the EmuNAND9 is setup?)

Thank you again for your help!

following the nice guide on github i got my o3ds hacked with aureinand cfw and al9h ! took my 3 hours pff but it worked ! ... questions ... do i need the cia files i installed still on my sd? and can i just update my cfw sysnand always to the latest version?

 

[NoGamer]

Yes and Yes. But, before updating SysNAND better wait until they are sure everythings will work again, just to be sure.

Yes, because it's a new SD card, emuNAND needs to be formatted on it.

Yes, copy all of the files from your original SD card to the new one (you don't need to copy over any emuNAND backups over yet though). Setup EmuNAND9 and format your emuNAND.

When emuNAND is formatted, it formats the whole SD card so it can add another partition to it; this is why you need to copy your backed up files to the SD card again. This time, when copying your backed up files, make sure to also copy the emuNAND_formatted.bin file to the root of the SD card as well. From there, use EmuNAND9 to inject emuNAND_formatted.bin to your emuNAND.

Hi,
i just downgraded my New 3DS XL to 9.2 from 10,5 and now i don't rlly know what to do. My goal was to be able to play 3DS game roms like with a sky3ds flashcard, without spending 90€. Soo... what do i have to do know? Install a CFW? Which one? Where do i put the roms and what do I open them with? I rlly have no idea.

Hi guys, first, sorry about my bad English, second, I have A LOT of question. The nearest time I play a handheld console is PSP but now I want to buy a New Nintendo 3DS XL/LL White. But then I realize that I know nothing about Nintendo, I'm hoping that you guys can help me.

1. I dont know if there is a difference between LL and XL. Well, which one is better or more stable ?. I have a friend go to JP, the N3DS there is a bit cheaper but I have to wait for a half month for it.

2. Which one should I use with it, CFS or GW or SKY+ ( not depending on the money I have ) ?. Which one have more risk of being bricked when I use ?

3. Is there any game that I can only play with LL but not XL ?

1. XL and LL are the same sizes. Iirc, LL is used mainly in Japan while XL is used more around the world. And because of that, they're both basically the same in terms of stability.

2. Unfortunately, I'm not familiar with the term "CFS". Are you trying to say "CFW" (custom firmware) or perhaps "cia"? Personally, I recommend just staying away from GW and Sky+. They're a waste of money for the free alternatives we have now. And because mostly everything you'll be doing is on emunand, bricking isn't a problem.

3. Like I said LL is equivalent to XL, so no.

oh my, thank you so much for the fast reply. And yes, that's CFW, my mistake . I guess I'll go for the XL, cant wait for too long even just because yesterday I want to play Pokemon but I have to buy a N3DS.

Lol no problem. Have fun with Pokemon!

Hi guys.
I updated my EmuNAND from 9.1 to 10.7 by System in ReiNAND. After update, my FBI become Exclamation marks and i cant use it. What should i do to make it back to normal?
Thanks for any Help!

 

[NoGamer]

Guy's

Is there a CIA game viewer that include illustration (cover art etc) ? Now if i need to delete a CIA game i have to search for the serial code on http://www.3dsdb.com/. So is there a Homebrew app that can show your games with illustration and maybe also the serial code etc.

Edit: Can ORGANIZ3D show installed CIA games with illustrations ?

Wow. I've never heard that before. That's some weird behavior. You should delete FBI and try reinstalling the cia and see if that fixes it.

Do you need to delete cias? Just use the "data management" within system settings. It'll show you all your cias.

Haha, ok that's go a bit faster. Thx !
