Thats means that is need to install something from the eshop. The first time appears "uptade 3ds" i choose cancel, the next time only the image above apear.
When i go to the management data, apears a dev_menu slot that ocuppy 4 slots, but when restart the console is not more there.

Some user try to give me a shinny passageway, how to install eshop with other form or something i miss.
Process: Microsd Hombrew 4>Profile SD (Palantine CFW)>Cpu run.bat (image above).

I've the same problem.
Comman-index: 1 but we need Comman-index:4
I don't know what is the problem.

I try a lot of tutorials (hex workshop + nand.bin... emunandtool + bat... the dbs folder & files.... nothing works).
So much people have the same problem in EOL (Elotrolado.net is a Spanish forum).

I'm at step 12 now but DS profile just launches normally haha.. Btw, what will I do with rednand after? I also forgot to backup emunand, though my 3DS is still fine and is still on 4.x >.<

You need command index:0.
You must insert the SD card into your PC's card reader and go into the folders Nintendo 3DS > ID1 > ID2 and create a dbs folder. Inside the dbs folder you should create a file called title.db or update.db.

Code:

└───Nintendo 3DS
    └───01234567890acbdef0123456789abcde        <-- ID1
        └───9876543210fedcba9876543210fedcba    <-- ID2
            ├───extdata
            └───dbs  <-- create this one and add one of the files inside it(or both)
                  title.db
                  update.db

Put that SD back in the 3DS and go to System Settings > Data Management > Nintendo 3DS > Software, to reset the data.
Now you'll be able to install stuff.

ROM to CIA Guide

This guide requires makerom and ctrtool.

Step1: decrypt the .3ds rom.
I will not explain it in this tutorial, as it is explained a couple of times around the forum. (http://gbatemp.net/threads/release-3ds_ctr_decryptor-void.370684/)

If you end up with a decrypted romfs.bin, exheader.bin, code.bin (decompressed), icon.bin and banner.bin you did everything correct.

Step2: creating an .rsf file
The .rsf file is a little bit different then the one for .3ds roms. Anyway here is the proper one, make sure you fill in the XXXX the right way. Just copy the text in the codebox underneath in a text editor and save it as cia.rsf in the folder with the other stuff.

• you can open the exheader or original rom in a hex editor to look up the right values for the companycode, producttyp and productcode
•For the correct UniqueID you can check ctrtool and the official rom. Just remove the last 2 0 and write the 4 digits before that in the .rsf file:

Code:

BasicInfo: Title : "Custom Title" CompanyCode : "00" ProductCode : "CTR-P-DERP" ContentType : Application # Application / SystemUpdate / Manual / Child / Trial Logo : Nintendo # Nintendo / Licensed / Distributed / iQue / iQueForSystem TitleInfo: UniqueId : 0x7850 Category : Application Option: UseOnSD : true # true if App is to be #installed to SD EnableCompress : true # Compresses exefs code FreeProductCode : true # Removes limitations on ProductCode EnableCrypt : true # Enables encryption for NCCH and CIA MediaFootPadding : true # If true CCI files are created with padding AccessControlInfo: ExtSaveDataId: 0xb7850 # same as UniqueId SystemSaveDataId1: 0x00000000 # plaintext exheader SystemSaveDataId2: 0x00000000 # plaintext exheader OtherUserSaveDataId1: 0x00000 # plaintext exheader OtherUserSaveDataId2: 0x00000 # plaintext exheader OtherUserSaveDataId3: 0x00000 # plaintext exheader UseOtherVariationSaveData : false SystemControlInfo: SaveDataSize: 1M # plaintext exheader RemasterVersion: 0 # plaintext exheader StackSize: 0x00040000 # plaintext exheader JumpId: 0x000400000b000000L # plaintext exheader (<full UniqueID>L)

step 3: creating the .cia
Open the command window in the folder with the exefs.bin, exheader.bin, romfs.bin, icon.bin, code.bin, banner.bin, cia.rsf and makerom. Now run the following command:

this will output an .cia file which you can install with the DevMenu and then run.

If you encounter an error saying "[ROMFS ERROR] Invalid RomFS Binary.", then remove the "-romfs romfs.bin" from the command.

Using CTRinfo -i Does not tell me the UniqueID. Is it the program ID?

If the DS Profile launches normally then you ran some DS application. Any DS game will remove the exploit. You'll have to run GW_Installer.nds again.

Did you get to format your emunand?

Yes I did

So now you have to copy the CFW's files to the root of the SD card.
Remember to delete Launcher.dat and rename Launcher_GW.dat to Launcher.dat.

" 9. Use EmunandTool, select 'Inject NAND to emuNAND' and navigate to where your REDNAND.bin is."

Do I have to write that you should SELECT rednand.bin?

Sorry, I have already selected rednand.bin with the emunand toll and it is said success.. Do I put it in 3ds folder or sumwhere? Cuz it doesn't say about it anymore..

So it's done. It injects the file into a hidden partition. Just put the CFW files in the SD, put it back into the 3DS and continue.
