I can't seem to get miniPasta working either, when I run the app it just shows a red screen for a couple of seconds then returns me to the HB launcher.
Are you sure you're running minipasta through sysNAND? I ran minipasta (just now) through emuNAND and I got the red screen.

Well I couldn't wait until tomorrow to try, and gave it a go... unfortunately my H&S app is now gone on sysNAND... and I'm sure I did everything 100% right. What do I do now? :C

EDIT: Nevermind, I just restored the app through rxTools, I gave it a second try and now I can see the app without banner, but when I try to launch it, it says that I need to re-download the app from eshop. I don't know what anymore :(

Ok so I managed to follow THIS tutorial succesfully, but now I DON'T know HOW to inject the NAND_Rebuild.bin with FBI injected. Any ideas?
but I think renaming it to NAND.bin and

The way I fixed this was through running Minipasta but for some reason it's not working for you. :/

I finally got Mother 3 working after injecting FBI into H&S on sysNAND and installing the CIA first there and then on emuNAND, following the tutorial that samiam144 showed me. Thank you so very much to everybody!

I finally got this working thanks to the tutorial! thanks man.

Guise, I kind of need your help again now. I installed some DSiWare CIAS through sysNAND on RX mode, but apparently none of them worked and they didn't even appeared on the sysmenu... so I just kinda opened Data Management on sysNAND to erase them (no rx mode though) and voila it just froze and I had to power off the console the hard way. SO now I don't know what to do since I can't even load rxtools anymore on my 3ds. Do I have to re-do all the process of resintalling rxtools on my sd card?

EDIT: My SD card is still intact btw, I read that if you open data management on sysnand it deletes all of your data, but that didn't happen to me aparently.

Try to boot into sysNAND without the SD Card. You could try to reinstall/inject your NAND into the SD Card agai.

I formatted the SD card with gateway menu, and injected the emunand back in to the sd manually, looks like it works fine now. Question, why sometimes my sd card won't get recognized at all by the 3ds no matter how many times I power it on and off? this has happened to me two times: the first time around it was because my sd was VERY old, and the second one (this one) I don't know what happened at all... and I don't believe it has to do with messing with data management on sysnand, or does it?

By it not being read at all you mean by it going straight to sysNAND correct? It might be because of a faulty SD Card reader (not sure really) it could also be that it may just be the SD Card. I had a bit of problems getting my micro SD card working but I just replaced the reader and it worked a lot better.

---edit---
It probably isn't the 3DS's SD Card reader considering that it's only happened twice. :/ idk

Maybe it's the reader, who knows, who cares. JK, I care a lot :(

BTW, do you think it's possible to replace my 3DS carcass? I want to revamp it someday.

I have a bricked o3DS XL if you want I could sell it to you; you could somehow manage to replace the reader from my 3DS to yours if you are that much.

That what happens when I buy used stuff, but anyway let's hope my SD card doesn't fuck up again. Thanks for your time :)

You could use a micro sd card + sd card (micro sd card reader) and never have to remove the sd card from the 3ds only removing the micro sd card when modifying files on it. This could prevent damage in the internals.

-edit-
No problem

You never install games to NAND, only SD.

Edit: didn't see Bobesh8 said the same, ignore this. :P

Edit2: Also recall that you must install it on both sysNAND and emuNAND for it to work properly on emuNAND
What do you mean by "properly"? Because every time that I close the game it reboots my 3ds to sysnand

By properly I mean for it to start up/run from emuNAND. Exiting a gba game reboots the system, so unless you have an auto boot into emuNAND it's normal that you would be in sysNAND after exiting a gba game.
