Hello, i've got a N3DS with Luma3DS (on 11.3 if it matters) and my GBA SP doesn't works anymore but i'd like to play to Minish Cap again, i just have a problem, 3DS is not like the old DS, can't insert the gba cartridge in. Do you know any way to play to GBA games on N3DS with Luma3DS please?

Use the "Ultimate GBA VC Injector" tool that creates .cia's from GBA roms. Or use a GBA emulator for 3DS.

Awesome it works, thanks! Does it also works for DS games? (Because last time i checked DS games weren't playable on emuNAND)

No because DS games arent emulated (virtual console), but run completely on the hardware. (3ds includes DS hardware and uses the arm9 processor for security) There is TWLoader, which can load DS games, but it is quite buggy.

Can anyone tell me the best SD Checker/ Formatting tool to use?

I've been given a 64GB SDXC Card to install a CFW, but for some reason the PC doesn't want to recognise it. The windows formatter says 'Unknown Capacity'...

Help would be appreciated! Thanks

Don't worry it's definitely a legit card hahaha

The problem seems to be that my PC Card Reader doesn't want to read it. Plugged the Card into my phone and connected it to the PC through USB and boom... It works!

Hi, I'm new to 3DS cfw, so I have just 3 quick questions:

Is luma3ds the best cfw for noobs?
Can I play 3ds roms/cia on 3DS console using luma3DS?
Can I use 3ds freeshop using luma3DS?

Thanks

1- Yes
2- Only .cia roms.
3- Yes, but for that freeshop need to be installed, therefore, a9lh needs to be installed.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

here is everything i have on the root of my SD Card maybe it could be its on fat32 or soemthing?

What about trying a cart update? to get to >= 9.1 and =< 11.2

Format your SD Card using FormatGUI

I hacked my N3DS XL a year ago. I was on ReiNand at first, but switched to Luma last June. Cool story, I know.

I updated my emuNAND to 11.3, and now it doesn't boot. Black screen. I downloaded and put on my SD the the latest Luma (dated from November). Still doesn't work. What is up? What can I do? Thanks!

Well, they say it should work if you use Luma 6.6 - which I now do - but it doesn't work. My sysNAND is like 9.6...

Do you have A9LH? o.o

What? Freeshop has nothing to do with a9l, it will run in any cfw and with any entrypoint.

My sysNAND is like 9.6...

What are you using to boot luma? Menuhax?

 

[Groumpfouh]

Noooow I get it. Yeah, Menuhax. Old stuff, right? So I have to go through all these steps to install A9LH, the goal being to change the point of access? I have to follow the long, big, twisted guide? Then I'll have access to my emunand, saves and all?

Ive read that updating with a cart may break soundhax so i thought mset would be the best option i think the problem is that mset just works on 4.x and not on 6.x

I cant understand why the web browser wont work :/

 

[Groumpfouh]

Yeah, that guide. I get it now. Install A9HL. Will I keep my emunand, saves, games and all? I'm just installing a new point of entry, right?

No, you don't need to install a9l, its just one of entrypoints and menuhax will work fine.

Copy boot.3dsx and arm9loaderhax.bin, restart system and it should boot luma. Installing a9l is optional if you want faster bootrates.

Will I keep my emunand, saves, games and all?

Yes.
