I've still not got this DevMenu.3ds to work in GW Mode in sysNAND. I've tried 4 MicroSD cards of sizes 1GB, 4GB, 32GB and 64GB, all formatted fully with SD Formatter and Windows; and several different copies of DevMenu.3ds. Any other .3ds file works fine, it's just DevMenu that won't.
Pm me your mail.

my findings on the MSET/ N3DS_ROPInstaller thing:

I tried everything I could think of, but could NOT get the DS Profile exploit to stop working, tried real NDS cart, Blue GW cart, switch OFF, no go.
Finally I found a way to have the exploit vanish. Go in Emunand > Settings > DS Profile and change DS profile comment or color.
Then when I came back the Sysnand, the exploit had vanished.

This was perfect to test the N3DS_ROPInstaller.nds.
I just ran it using the Blue GW card, it installed in less than a second.
After I tried the DS Profile exploit again from sysand, it worked perfectly.

-> No need for zelda OoT swap ever again, yaye
-> no need to install NVRAM from GW Menu, it can be done by the awesome N3DS_ROPInstaller instead.

I'm on JPN N3DS 8.1 with flashcardtimewarp installed.

My findings from the last 2.5 hours are as follows:

When DevMenu doesn't work it's probably because of the physical SD Cards you have - not how they are setup. I tried a LOT of combinations of 1GB, 4GB, 32GB and 64GB and in the end the only one that worked was a cheap unbranded 1GB card in the Gateway and a Toshiba 4GB card in the N3DS (might be the one that came with it), both formatted to FAT32.
The MD5 hash of the version of DevMenu I used is e65629fbe2ae8a419cf8624df78e78b2, and it's the one found everywhere. No problem there (you can check this using WinMD5Sum).

My DS Profile exploit did get erased after playing Mario Kart DS from the Blue Card.
My sysNAND setup is FW 9.0E with Timewarp installed previously.
N3DS_ROPInstaller.nds. does restore the exploit nicely.

What did you do in Mario kart DS exactly? I cannot reproduce (exploit stays active after returning to sysnand or even full shut down!)

Just tried the same, time attack, it saved, i went back to 3DS menu using Home button.
No go, exploit is still there and working, really is a mystery xD
