Get a different SD card and try booting devmenu from there

yeah. dev menu boots from the old 32gb SD card...but not on the 128.. ill see what happens. I am going to try and reinstall everything to the 128 fresh and new.. I still have all the CIA files...

So, you got your new SD card, formatted emuNAND via the Gateway Menu with your new SD card in, then went back, injected the emuNAND and copied all files, and this error happens?

Might be with the formatting tool you used, or the card is fake (like others have mentioned).
Did you run h2testw on the SD card?
Other than that, I don't have any more ideas...

Now, even starting fresh I get the same error on this damn SD card.

Sounds like a fake
Run h2testw and see the true capacity of the card
By the way, what brand is it?

Transcend is the brand. I dont know whats going on.. Ill try the test, but I believe its legit. I got it from BestBuy.com Its strange because I CAN get into DevMenu is there is NO CIA file in the root... but if there is any CIA in the root, I cant get in

Test it using the quick test with the tool I linked on my previous post.

ok i will

 

[Ralph1611]

Im doing the long h2test so it may take a while...

 

[MrJason005]

128gb of writing... yeah

 

[gudenau]

At 1MB/s that would take ~36 hours.

 

[Ralph1611]

I wrote 32 gigs... i finally gave up on it... now im just going to do one final test... just copy the original 4gb card i started out with all along and see if it works... if not im taking it back to best buy and ordering a Sandisk...

 

[tony_2018]

ok...but I didnt have to reinstall it when I upgraded from 4 gigs to 32 gigs...

Is it that hard to try again? Did you even format it using Easus? Did you even verify if it was a fake SD card? Sitting wasting your own time, not ours.

I tried many different options. I did use EASEUS like you said. I had it on my computer already but didnt think to gormat it with that, even though ive used it to format external hard drives to fat32 with it. Im convinced the SD card is real, but just bad. I really appreciate all your help. I am following the steps properly. I am going to go ahead and check with the quick test to just get peace of mind when I return it.

Before you pull your wallet out, let h2testw run through the night

Well the h2test said it would only take 2 hoursill test it now... but my gut tells me... Transcend is just shitty
