Sorry but for the moment i did not found the way to convert a .cia to 3ds
It seems that it is not possible because a cia file contains less informations : cia is a 3ds file trunckated/trimmed so to get back a 3ds file you must "rgenerate" the missing part which is the issue :(

baffles me that you would want to convert a .cia to a .3ds

It takes quite a large amount of work to do so, would be simpler to just install the .cia (takes about 3 clicks assuming you use gateway). Also rumor has it .cia files may be safer if you plan on playing games online.

the reason i dont like .cia is that you need to open a .3ds rom then convert it while .3ds you can just run it off the gateway card
