3. This is a tough one, depends on what part of the nand you brick, if you brick TWL for example the system will still boot as normal like nothing happened. If you brick FIRM partitions on the other hand you're pretty much screwed unless you have a backup and a hardmod. <-- all that is relating to sysnand though. If you brick emunand in any way you can just restore a backup and it will boot again.
if it breaks FIRM we are screwed even with a9lh. while with a9lh we are completely safe even if CTRNAND bricks
 
@d0k3
It seems that you don't have an official GodMode9 thread, so i'll just ask here.

1) Is it possible to initiate network/wifi access during a9lh bootup?
2) If yes, how feasible is it to integrate an ftp mode into GodMode9, or is it completely out of the scope of the project?
Good to see GodMode9 has a user base even before an official release :). Anyways, FTP is out of question for GodMode9. No one so far has managed to get wifi reliably (or, at all) working on ARM9. If we ever manage to do this, I may think about this, but as of now, this is unlikely.

These failed for me:

ncch_7x_key
nand_twl_key
nand_ctrn_key

Keys I have:
  • slot0x1BkeyX
  • Slot0x05KeyY
  • slot0x18keyX
  • slot0x25KeyX
Can someone help me?
You should not worry about this. The selftest does not load the keys from the files, it is designed to show you what your system is capable of doing whithout any additional files. I guess I will change this later, though.

It's case sensitive. The file names should have a lower case "s" in slot and capital "K" in key.
Key files are not case sensitive. Granted, some other stuff is, but that will be fixed soon.

Hi! Excuse me, but everytime I try to do a SysNAND restore it says that "No usable file was found!" and I have my NAND.bin file in the root of my microSD Card. I created that backup using EmmuNAND9 (a program of your creation) and I was wondering if you could help me :)
Thanks!
Okay, that is strange. There are some things that I need to change in D9's NAND restore function, but for the most part problems such as these should not happen. So... what is the file size of you NAND backup? If it is using lowercase letters in the name or uppercase letters in the extension, you can also try to change that.

EDIT: If you can, just post the exact name (with correct cases) and size of your backup. Also, the first 512 byte, if you can upload this (but don't upload the whole thing!).

So, my exact file name is "NAND.bin" (without the quotes) and the size is 569 MB! I don't know how to upload the first 512 byte :/ I'm sorry about that
But here's a screenshot of the Properties of my file!

569mb seems small for a NAND...I'm pretty sure they're at least 1gig but wait for d0ke to answer

I was about to say that I tried changing the extension to "NAND.BIN" all caps and it didn't work :(
I might as well be the unluckiest person when it comes to 3DS hacking LOL!

Sorry man, but if this teaches you anything it's ALWAYS make more than 1 NAND backup in case, I was just telling someone this yesterday too. However don't give up yet maybe d0ke can still save you we don't know yet
 
Yep that's way too small even for old 3ds.
Yo @Shadowtrance i wanted to thank you for that decrypt9ui you posted for me:), however when I tried using emunand 9 thru a9lh tho it didn't work (black screen)I reverted to d0ke version of emunand9 since that one works with aurei boot manager. Just wanted to let you know and thanks again

Well crap :( Maybe! Gotta be hopeful haha!
 
It's sad to hear that mate.:O

So, it's always advisable to keep two backup right? Maybe we should have another tool to diversify the risk of corruption next time.

I found this one: emuNAND Tool
Link:https://gbatemp.net/threads/emunand-tool-release-and-support-thread.359239/

However I am not sure if it does the same job as Decrypt9WIP. I hope someone may advise a bit on that. :)
That is a computer program, decrypt9 is perfect for making backups basically never fails just make 2 of them and you'll be sure to be safe.

The reason I think Marco had problems is probably because his sd was almost full when backing up his NAND, with decrypt9 it will start the backup and if it runs out of space it will fail...but it will ALMOST look like it completed. It says error or wtv but if your not paying attention it could just look like it completed. And it leaves a partial NAND backup on sd, maybe @d0k3 can add some red writing when it fails? Or maybe delete the partial NAND backup if failure.

Maybe that's what happened and I wouldn't be surprised honestly. I was never lucky at all with the 3DS Homebrew/Hacking, it was so much easier with the Wii haha!
Maybe d0k3 can help :) I'll keep my hopes up! :D

The others are right. With that size there is no hope for that NAND backup, and it is almost impossible you got that without an error message. Is your problem that you are on 2.1 now and don't know about a way back up? If it is, check if there's something in Plailects guide for that issue. Also, ask around on #3dshacks over at rizon, maybe someone can help.

Well thank you all so much for your help! I think I'll just give up for now, I think I might start getting a headache haha :) But seriously, you were a lot of help unlike people at Reddit, so thank you so much!! :D

before giving up I'd be willing to help if your stuck on 2.1 I'll even take it to pm just message me when you want to attempt it again, no need to do it right now, I know that feeling of getting overwhelmed when things go wrong modding your console.

If your using o3ds on 2.1 you might just be in luck

Thank you! You are very kind :D But I doubt it will be anytime soon :/ for now, I'll just limit myself to using my Sky3DS and just have there the games I lost in that NAND backup :) But thank you!!

With RedNAND (only via E9 atm) only. You'd need to use either CakesFW or AuReiNAND for this and you'd also have to resize the partition yourself. You can use Partition Wizard (on PC) for this. If you do it, let me know how it goes.

Adding to this: you can make it even smaller than 1280MB - even that is not fully used. And if it works I'll code something into E9 / D9 for everyone.

I checked my emuNAND Dump and stripped it down. I was able to strip it down to 1238MB so I had no 00 bytes left. Increased size to 1240MB since that may actually be the minimum size you need then.
Trying partitioning and injecting now.
