Hacking Devmenu troubles

[Akumax85]

Nope, no changes at all. Just sat there opening 15 bats at the same time, and randomly one connected. I'm about 10m with 3 walls away from my router, tried with both wireless and wired PC (no difference).

You did that how much time per day for you to work ? Because I felt like after 10 minutes trying to open those damn windows, I'm tired of seeing the same error each time

I tried for about 10x2 minutes every day (Morning & evening) and it worked after a long time. It's very frustrating, I know, but it's worth it in the end!

Thanks for the support ! It's good to see that I'm not the only one to whom that problem happen and obviously that the others have managed to make this DevMenu thing work
Btw, once DevMenu is installed, you don't have to do the same thing for each .cia, do you ? And do you have any problems with the saves because some people out there told me that they've suddenly lost their saves ?

No you won't have to redo this for every .cia, DevMenu is the new way of installing .cias!
Unfortunatly I did have some problems with saves, my Luigi's Mansion 2 save was lost somehow, but not any other game. Fortunatly I had all my games backed up via the gateway launcher, so I can restore them at any point.

I DID IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG I DIDN'T BELIEVE I WOULD ACHIEVE TO INSTALL DEVMENU ONE DAY !!!!!!
More seriously, for the saves, can I have several for the same game or not ? Also, if I would like to delete a game from the SD card, I just have to delete the .cia from the SD card or is it more complex ? And last question , can I delete a game without removing its save(s) so that I can improve the space on the SD card but if I would like to play later, I will always have the save ?
Thanks again for your support, you're awesome !!!!!!

I've been trying to install Devmenu, but when I try to use run.bat, it says it failed to connect? Any ideas on what is going on?

the ultra-acurate tutorial:
1-get your IP, set emunand, edit run.bat, bla, bla, bla
2-CONNECT YOUR PC TO THE INTERNET (your A.P must be from your own PC, if using a laptop you must use Connectify)
3-Enter EmuNAND by holding L
4-Run the edited run.bat adn done
5-If it says an error, repeat step 4 A.S.A.P.

this always work

The cia doesn't even need to be on the sd card after you install it, you can just delete it to save space. To uninstall, you delete it through data management. To backup saves, I would use savedatafiler.cia (google it). But maybe you can just use the save-data backup on the home screen

And once I've installed a game via DevMenu, should I boot CFW every time I wanna play or could I play it via the main menu of the 3ds ?

 

[samiam144]

Are you on PBT or Palantine? On PBT you can play only legit CIAs without booting CFW. But to play any other CIA, or if you are using Palantine, you must boot CFW everytime. The game will simply not launch if you tried on the main menu.

Ok thanks I'm on Palantine so I must boot every time But I didn't understand very well how to delete games through data management, can you explain it a bit more precisely ?

Yes, it's nothing complicated: While in the CFW, go into System Settings, then go in Data Management. Select whichever type you want to uninstall (Games are in Software, DLC is in Extra Data i think, etc.) Oh and I think it will boot you out of CFW after you exit System Settings

be careful to do not do it while in sysnand if using palantine

Ah yes I forgot it is just the same as using linked gateway or Rx emunand. Akumax85 if you do it in sysnand (meaning outside of CFW) then all your stuff in your CFW will be deleted, so be careful!

So, to sum up, to delete games, I need to boot CWF and go in Data Management but I do so in the main menu (Sysnand) without booting, all my CFW's stuff will be deleted. Is that so ?

Yes, that is correct. Basically, ONLY use data management in CFW

Ok thanks Do you know if a solution for the games with 7.x keys have been recently come out ?

 

[Akumax85]

Sorry to bother you another time but now I have another problem
When I click on a game icon in CFW mode on the main menu, it freezes although the day before it worked perfectly
So I wonder if it is just a game problem and that I have to uninstall them or should I delete all I have on my SD card to reinstall the CFW ?
PS: it does this for all the games I've installed via DevMenu
