Since thread is just same questions being asked over and over with people obviously reading just the last few posts, here,s some info regarding the most common questions asked
BUT FIRST, THE GATEWAY MANUAL AND INSTRUCTIONS DIRECTLY FROM THE TEAM THEMSELVES ARE THERE FOR A REASON, CONSIDERING THIS IS ALSO A BETA WITH POSSIBLE BUGS, FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS GIVEN CAFEFULLY AND FULLY..
=> DO NOT EVER TRY AND UPDATE YOUR EMUNAND IN CLASSIC MODE WITH A RETAIL CART (No Carts have 6.3 update partition yet anyway, so would be prompted to update again)
=> ONLINE PLAY WORKS IN CLASSIC MODE FOR RETAIL CARTS AND ESHOP TITLES
=> Pokemon X/Y and Animal Crossing Roms do not work. MH4, Zelda and the rest do
=> To Enter GW GUI hold L while clicking DS Profile, otherwise will just boot to GW mode (into EmuNAND if available)
=> All roms will play (except Pokemon X/Y and ACNL) on either SystemNAND and EmuNAND via new Launcher (SDK 5.x Icon location patching done)
=> Using EShop on EmuNAND allows purchasing and playing of titles with online play
=> Alot of people experiences more freezes than before, or freezes for first time, stuck at grey lines / screen stays black, some have more issues booting into GW mode using GUI, other cant boot into GW mode without using GUI, Some cant boot into GW using EmuNAND, fragmentation is sometimes the issue, after formatting EmuNAND (which formats SD, havent had 1 freeze) and i only used GUI for backup and prep of NAND
=> Classic mode allows playback of retail carts, Meaning if original cart needs higher than 4.5X, you must have EmuNAND active and updated or will be prompted to update
=> Confirmation that Pokemon retail Cart DOESNT plays via EmuNAND classic mode, save issues, WORKS IF CART IS BRAND NEW
=> If you have an unplayed retail game, you should be able to play it and save in emuNAND classic mode fine. If you have already saved on the game on another system, you are risking losing your save game as it reinitializes or you get data corruption message for Pokemon and ACNL
=> Backing out of system Settings will always return you to SysNAND, even in EmuNAND, also once you have updated your EmuNAND, you will be returned to SysNAND, not the updated emuNAND, So anytime you are in system settings with emunand, once exited, you will need to re enter to run profile hack again to stay in that mode, and it cannot be rerun while in emunand, System settings need to be exited then reentered..
=> EmuNAND is not needed to load roms built on SDK 5.x+
=> If you forgot to Backup your Nand.bin and wanted to but went straight ahead and formatted EmuNAND, you can just run nand backup again to get another visible copy on SD to backup to PC, regardless of whether you updated EmuNAND or not, its the original SysNAND its backing up, which will always be 4.1-4.5 or you wouldnt be able to enter GUI to begin with
=> Monster Hunter 4 works, Online will only work with retail cart in classic mode
=> Backup'd NAND using GateWay can be written back with Hardware Flasher (SD/MMC)
=> You can't boot another system's NAND backup using EmuNAND.
