Hacking Gateway No Card Question?

[endoverend]

can you install emunand gateway eg: GW 9.2 then run the same emunand using the MT launcher?

Yes. I've done it myself.

 

[endoverend]

I just tried it. Unofficial CIAs (BBM, savedatafiler, ftbrony, etc) will not launch.

But wouldn't Gateway's classic mode work then? AFAIK you don't need a cart for that. Let me check real quick.

 

[daxtsu]

No, GW classic mode doesn't let you run CIAs either (and even if it did, it'd be pointless for those who want to run an emuNAND without the Gateway in the first place, since it requires the card to be in to prevent a black screen).

When you tried was installed the GW or MT emmunand?

 

[daxtsu]

It was an emunand created via Gateway. That's just my experience though.

Argh. They thought of everything.

 

[daxtsu]

More or less. If there was a loophole here, I'm sure it would've been discovered long before this. But hey, weirder things have happened (see Ocarina of Time on the N64. They're still discovering bugs and glitches in it in 2014/2015..).

Well, you could install the cia with a gateway cart then load the Launcher.dat for the CFW that bypasses the check, however that's only 4.5 cia's and you could do that without a gateway anyway.

 

[daxtsu]

Right, but the 4.5 CFW isn't terribly desirable (well, for those who don't care about games newer than 4.5, and to some extent 5.x and 6.x, varies per game, it's fine, but unstable). I wouldn't be surprised if we see a cart-less solution eventually. Anyhow, I think this idea is debunked for now. Do feel free to prove me wrong though. My experience in trying it isn't the end-all be-all.

Yeah the CFW sucks, I can't even get it to install the BBM, it just gives me "failed to connect" and it only boots like 1/5 times. There are firmware spoofed CIA's though, but nothing with 7.x encryption works AFAIK. What with all these spider tools and whatnot something will come along.

wait
so running MT Emunand 9.4 with DevMenu without the card wont work?

 

[Loko4]

The best way is if you borrow a GW

Install devmenu, install cias game and dont turn off the console.

You cannot remove sd to install more games, the 3ds will give a warning, so your only option is transferr via FTPony

Correct. If it did, I'm sure we would've heard stories all over the place about how you only need the card
once to "soft mod" your system by now.

 

[XXLANCEXX]

Im gonna install GW Emunand and boot it
cause i did have GW emunand to work
ill post a pic for proof

 

[daxtsu]

A video of you booting from power off to gateway launcher -> gateway mode with nothing in the slot all in one shot would be more convincing than a screenshot.

ill do that give me a sec
if it works

 

[dazemc]

Again...I am almost sure he is getting the gw launcher mixed up with emuNAND

 

[dazemc]

...if it works

 

[XXLANCEXX]

before i get carried away(sorry if this sounds noobis)
classic mode=emunand mode right?

Classic Mode uses emunand and no extra patches I believe aside from region free (might be wrong).

GW Mode uses emunand if formatted in the SD card or sysnand if not. both with patches to allow running roms
