Hacking GATEWAY PUBLIC RELEASE 2.3b

[OuahOuah]

Try shorter filenames.

yep gonna try that, i'll also reformat whole card with a different tool.

im quite sure my microsd is legit, they're not showing at all, they're not on multi rom selection list at all

hmmm not sure they should at least show up, did you extract the .3ds file?
(yes that sounds dumb....but you know...sometimes people are )

 

[Ashtonx]

ahahah lol, no, copying .3ds files onto sd through total commander

 

[Ashtonx]

hmmm after reformating, i loaded one of the games that weren't seen and it's visible, so i guess issue was with sd card thanks

 

[gamesquest1]

while your there test your card to make sure its legit http://rmprepusb.blogspot.co.uk/2013/10/a-faster-test-for-fake-sd-cards-and-usb.html

sounds like the kind of issue that happens with fake SD cards, except notmally they show up as a white square

 

[Ashtonx]

ran first test it passed, second test will take a while

i think issue is with the fact i formated using windows format and i'm guessing might be the block sizes i've set, later i've reformated it with panasonic tool for sd cards.

honestly though i've been using this sd on couple of devices before and had no issues at all.

edit: ignore sorry, was way behind the thread didn't update for some reason.

 

[Ashtonx]

Shamzie, nope as i've mentioned no white boxes they didn't show at all problem is resolved now


edit: both tests are ok, so as i've thought sd card is legit, issue was caused by formating.

Yes, only Card2 games like Pokeman, AC:NL, and Tomodachi Life write the save in real time. I beleive E-shop games also write saves in real time, but havent tested it personally. Card1 games still need Home+X to write the save to the BigSD

That hasn't ever been needed with Omega drivers. I've never had any problem with Card1 (or any other) games saving and never used Home+X.

it really is still needed, its only been improved to also save if you press the power button

if the card is removed, battery runs flat or the 3ds crashes, the save will not be transferred and progress since the last time you exited will be lost

Yep, I found out the hard way that 2.3 still does it too. Only lost like anhour of progress though

Im sure (hope) they will not work online, i think they didnt told us how to play online with scene dumps because they were scaried of bans.
Yeah i also can play Gba games on my psp, wii u, computer, r4, iphone etc but i include this feature because i think that with this feature it would be the most complete product also there is a lot of people that is ambassador but they dont have a Ds two

i emailed them about the saves and told them about the 128kb and 512kb save issue how it only works on saves 512kb or higher saves and they told me ''were working on it and are planning some releases that are gateway users should be rely excited about''

Bu you confirm that using power button during 5 or more seconds to shutdown is ok for the save ?

Thank you for emailing them. No one else here seems to think that feedbacks are important.

i tried it last time and it worked fine, but i would suggest you just exit first.....seeing as holding the power button forces the console to shut down, if the save takes a while transferring to the SD you could potentially corrupt the save completely if the power is cut during the transfer

 

[OuahOuah]

Ok, I understand.

Thank you for emailing them. No one else here seems to think that feedbacks are important.

I think they read GBATemp, as it is the biggest hackommunity for Nintendo's handheld
So biggest Gateway users community

Can someone please help me with my question?
Like i said before i've upgraded my 3ds from 2.1 pb to 2.3 public release. But when i try to load a game i only see a blank picture and cannot load the game.

Is there some solution for this or do i something wrong?

ps. Everything works well on the 2.1 pb.

Fake SD card likely if you're seeing a blank picture.

No thats not the case couse i'm using the same sd card as before. I've tried different sd cards.
