I toke off my GW cart from my console and i've seen a little scratch. To see if it still working,I entered into GW Sysnand mode in 11.3. A9LH doesnt work anymore.
Im screwed?
 
I'm fucking finished with gateway. Been a supporter from day 1 with 2 cards. I'm gonna sell them now. There last comment on there site said an update will be 2 weeks max and that was almost 4 weeks now. There a joke in the scene now.

Gateway has no firm protection. You wiped off al9h from your console buddy :/

If you have a backup that you've made after installing A9LH then you can restore A9LH with a hardmod. Even if you don't have a A9LH backup, you can still restore an older backup with a hardmod to go back to a lesser FW and then hack your console again. Those are your two only choices.
 
It isnt a dirty cheap card. Its pathetic. And it broke me a console a year ago.

Im not very updated. Why A9 stopped working? I didnt update the console. I didnt do nothing that overwrites the firm.
On every startup, 11.3 attempts to overwrite A9LH. This normally means absolutely nothing because A9LH boots before the firmware and protects itself. This coupled with auto-shutdown if .bin files aren't present/no SD card makes it that in almost all circumstances, you cannot run a setup where A9LH is overwritten. However, Gateway's version of A9LH is sadly one such exception because it does NOT protect the firmware. Nor does Gateway offer a warning about this anywhere on the website.

It is a known fact that booting sysNAND with Gateway's loader on 11.3 bricks the console. Because there is no protection, the firmware attempts to remove A9LH. Perhaps it is trying to patch vulnerable files. Whatever the case, the result is corruption. Which renders the console unbootable.

My console works, but its on shitty 11.3.
 
Even if i had that games... I would be able to install the save in the console? Just curiosity.
With hardmod AND twlnand xorpads you could have dumped with decrypt9

You have an O3DS, the brick part applies to N3DS
