I'm about to install CFW (following 3DS.guide) on my O3DS 4.5.0-5
but I can't find the answer to my question before starting.
Do I need eShop access and NNID before following the guide?
I never connected it to eShop and never linked any NNID.
I just want to be sure it's not an issue, as it could be something all users never thought when writing guides because I'm sure they thought everybody already used eShop.
Second question, but I already got the answer once:
Will my Supercard DS Two still work once Luma is installed? Do I have to update my card first?
do I need to follow the "
fix DS functionality"? why would it need to be fixed anyway, how can you break it? and don't you only need to replace the blacklist to make any flashcart working again?
I might have question about converting Gateway and RedNAND savegame data first, but I'll try and ask in the conversion thread if needed.
edit:
I guess I'll ask here:
1)it concerns this : "Some games like Fantasy Life and Theatrhythm Final Fantasy store their primary save data in "Extdata". If you plan on using the same NAND in the end, you
don't have to worry about exporting/importing that."
except that I want to export my extdata and stop using gateway redNAND. the guide didn't cover how to do it, but ok, I'll try by myself
2) do I really need to install cia version of the game I want to convert its savegame to my redNAND? (I don't have cia of my games) I don't want to play them, just backup (not restore). is the cia game needed for JKsavegame manager to work at all?
