ever heard of emunand.......Because you have to modify your sysnand in order to use CFW, before you can make any CLEAN sysnand backup. That is why i and others will not risk messing up their system by installing CFW.

No, you don't need to modify anything on your sysnand. Cfw is just slightly more complicated (not in single launcher.dat), but everything else basically the same in installation (put all necessary files to sd vs launcher.dat to sd). Cfw is basically a gw which doesn't need redcart to run, and cannot use redcart after.Because you have to modify your sysnand in order to use CFW, before you can make any CLEAN sysnand backup.

If you are talking the need of cn/oot. Yeah they're no longer needed.try to reach gateway menu on N3DS with using one single gateway or supercard dstwo plus card. good luck.
Browserhax?To everyone who replied to me:
Yes, I heard about emunand, read through some guides. But.
I have N3DS XL, 9.0 sysnand, and one single Supercard DSTWO card (which was upgraded to plus, since i bought it this summer after the card was re-released). I do not have the Cubic Ninja game, I do not have Zelda Ocarina Of Time, I do not have Gateway card. I do not have Sky3DS card.
If I install 3DS plugin for DSTWO Plus, I can not enter into Gateway mode. It needs an entry point: Cubic Ninja or Zelda OoT.
I do not have them, I can not enter Gateway mode to set up emunand and backup my unmodified sysnand.
But I can install CFW, I know there is a guide to follow. 2 ways: CakesCFW or PastaCFW.
I am not familiar with CakesCFW, seems to be a complicated guide for me.
I would use PastaCFW which I understnd. But Pasta installs first a CIA installer + CIA Cubic Ninja game into the sysnand. This can be messed up, or I fear I mess up something. Then, AFTER i have Cubic Ninja CIA installed on sysnand, I can enter into Gateway mode and make a sysnand backup. Correct me if I am wrong, but this is the order I have to follow. I can not set up emunand first, I can not install the CIA-s or homebrew applications into emunand, because I can not reach Gateway menu to make an emunand and backup my sysnand first.
I am not familiar with RXtools either. But all I want is to access Gateway mode to make a CLEAN nand backup BEFORE I install any browserhaxx, HBL, CIA, MSET or anything that modify the system.
I did not read anywhere how can I enter into Gateway mode on Dstwo+ with CFW without touching my sysnand.
Or am I miss something??? If anyone have a simple way, please let me know.
Right now I think I have 3 options to solve my problem:
- buy a Cubic Ninja game, and use that as an entry point to enter into gateway mode
- buy a Sky3DS to use Cubic Ninja as a retail game on it
- wait for Supercard to make a Cubic Ninja plugin (if it ever happens)
- install thing to sysnand nand (modify sysnand)*snip*
SC released an update to their patch that is compatible with the latest GW firmware.... The 3DS portion of it is inferior though since it supposedly doesn't work with Gateway's latest update...
Did they remove brick code ?
SC released an update to their patch that is compatible with the latest GW firmware.
They can't have updated the launcher.dat, it is encrypted and last I heard they haven't written their own.no, SC updated the launcher.dat to support GW 3.5.1 WITHOUT BRICKING (which isnt confirmed by me, I dont have GW nor SCDSTWO+)
sorry, I meant that updated the pluginThey can't have updated the launcher.dat, it is encrypted and last I heard they haven't written their own.
If there is brick code in it, it's still there.

true enough, as i said i use gateway for debugging and modded rom testing so no big deal but it would be nice to be updatedthe only new feature I know about is cheat support with in game cheat editing real time. if you dont care about cheats use GW 3.4.x
Wait, you actually bought a sky3DS and you're under 9.2? Why would anyone do such a thing?No, i can use Pasta CFW on sky3ds and play CIAs on version under 9.3, dstwo+ does better than dstwo, but they are out of style now. if it released before sky3ds, i would think its the best
