Hi all,

So I updated my Gateway to the new 3.2.2 and then updated emunand to 9.8. I have an Original 3DS running sysnand 4.40. After the reboot, all my installed CIAs were gone. Save games thankfully were fine. Anyone know if the upgrade caused this or something else? Trying to avoid having it happen again. System runs like a champ otherwise.

Also I recently upgraded my red card's micro sd to a 64 gb Samsung class 10 and occasionally the system will freeze on boot to gateway mode / emunand. Any reason why this might be happening?

Thanks for any help!

Not to sure about the first issue, I don't think updating the emunand should get rid of your installed .cias, but also haven't had to update my N3ds yet.

As for booting into emunand, it isn't 100%. Sometimes you'll just get the black screen when attempting to boot into Emunand, it's usually pretty infrequent though.

I haven't done the update to 9.8, but previous updates didn't remove installed CIAs. Are your Sysnand and Emunad linked?

I also run a 64GB Samsung, do you have one of the EVOs that's orange? I do occasionally get a freeze on boot, from what I hear that's normal. It shouldn't happen that often, but it can happen.

I do have one of the Samsung Evo orange cards. Good to know it's just a bug to live with. I wonder if a different brand card would improve things. I get the freeze roughly 1 in 5 startups.

I think I did inadvertently go into data management. Lesson learned. Thanks for the tip.
