yeah, i know that (i said it in my post)
my question is, whats the diference between DevMenu form Govanify and from SDK 2.3.4 ?
and what is "devMenu_2x.cia" that i've seen a lot in here?
and what can i actually install from DevMenu that i cannot run from gateway (beside the DLC for Mario) ?

1) SDK devmenu is encrypted with the dev keys and as such cannot be installed. Govanify's is decrypted and can be installed.
2) Govanify's decrypted devmenu
3) Nothing really

Does anyone know how you actually access the DLC on SMB2 cause I have installed it but dont know how to access the content?

It consists of 10 extra level packs for the game mode Coin Rush, which you unlock after beating World 1 (or use the secret cannon to get out of the world earlier like I did ). After that coin rush is accesable from the player select screen and the level packs will be unlocked

Thanks. I thought maybe you might have to play a little bit to access it, I will have to get one of those save files to help me out.

You're getting 'Card was removed' error too? I still havent found a work around yet.

I'm getting this exact same issue. Anybody know?

So I ran SaveDataFiler, but it sees all my saves as broken save for one. What's up with that? Is the 2.3.4 version just too old to read my eShop saves?

Just FYI apparently SaveDataFiler decrypts and encrypts saves for you. So it could be the entry way to some cool save hacks, even on legit cartridges running on legit consoles as long as you have a hacked 3DS to do the encryption/decryption with. Also it might make it easy to convert saves between 3DS/3DZ, different region versions, and save sizes. So that's why it'd be nice to have

Of course it can't be used with actual cartridges unless you can run it from SD first, but that SHOULD be relatively easy to do.

There's a joke about a lawyer in a small town. Because it's a small town, he just wasn't getting a lot of cases. To make matters worse, he learned that even though the small town barely had enough cases for one lawyer, another lawyer was moving in down the block.

Pretty soon, both lawyers were making tons of money.

The leak may have been the best thing possible for us because now Gateway has something to compete with.

Whoa I figured it out! You need to use FAT32, not exFAT.. exFAT causes error

-So installing it with dev menu works too

I'm using exFAT, and I suffered from no error like this..

On the Gateway MicroSD? Or the big SD.

Thanks for responding!

What do you mean? are you saying you can install any file to your home screen through DevMenu?
Edit: Mine errors, which file did you use to install it? did you use the old devmenu .cia file or the one out of the devkit byBBB

 

[JCR1]

So we can install our favorire games on the home screen for fast launch? i can convert my actual roms? it read the same saves?

So we can install our favorire games on the dashboard for fast launch? i can convert my actual roms? it read the same saves?

Not any newer games, but yes.

I installed the Devmenu from Govanify (which is decrypted) using bbb's devmenu.cci

Well, this CFW use Gateway work to dump Nand and create emunand...

Only because it's convenient. It'd be completely possible to install the CFW without Gateway software if you make the dump by hardmod, or if someone wrote a NAND dump homebrew.

Well there goes my research for sure lol.. no point in RE-ing GW now

Research isn't for nothing, an open solution not tied to DRM hardware would still be great.
