Hello. Sorry if this was answered hundred of times. I tried to search, but as you see I'm new here :)

So problem - I flashed my N3DS and had luma, FBI installer, and everything worked fine, I installed .cia games. Life was easy. Then I bought another one N2DS XL with new 11.5.3 firmware and decided to "copy" cfw to this new system :) I did not succeed and somehow restored sysnand on my N3DS to 11.2 fw. But still I managed to install FBI and still can install .cia .
Problem - I don't see all those games I installed before ( when life was easy ) in home menu. BUT if I go to data management, I can see all those games but just with gray crosses, and I can "delete" them. So is there any way to make those games available again? I tried to reinstall one game by downloading .cia, it worked but saves were gone.
IS THERE A WAY TO EXPORT SAVES FROM SD ( I know where they are ) and make those games with gray cross work without reinstalling all of them?
Thanks in ADVANCE!

Restoring the NAND backup removed any saved games/tickets from titles you installed after you made that backup. There is no way to get the saves back period. You can use JKSM to make backups of saves that can be used across multiple consoles with CFW installed; for future reference.

If he installs the ticket he can get the saves back. As long as he doesn't reinstall the whole game.

Apologies, for the misinformation your saves should still be intact.

Actually I used tikdevil and yes, I got almost all my games back ( but for example Monster Hunter Stories still are not accessible , even I used all regions at tikdevil... any advice? :) ) WITH SAVES , I was really nicely surprised ( 100hrs saves for Xenoblades :) )
Thank you all for your help ( or even attempt to help :) ) It is really nice forum, keep the good work guys!
