Hello. I'm running Gateway Emunand 10.7 or 10.6 (Can't recall) on my N3ds. Wanted to update my Emunand to 11.0 but opening my System Settings just brings me to a black Screen. Also, opening system update from the Eshop also brings me to a black screen. Is there anything i can maybe do to fix it or will i have to reformat my Emunand?
Hacking Help. Getting a a black screen during system settings in emunand.

Use the latest Sysupdater in EMUNAND! you can get the latest update files using 3DNUS. Type 11.0.0-33 into the Title ID field and USA in the version then put those CIA's into an empty folder called updates on the root of your SD card.

I was able to update my firmware with this method but i still get the black screen in system settings.
Sounds like your SD card is corrupt I would backup your saves with JKSV, backup all the files on your SD card, then format the SD with SDFormatter (Format type - Full erase and Format size adjustment - On) and setup Emunand again.

So, I think i may have bricked my 3ds. I formatted everything, and Restored my SYSNand using my backup from a year ago. No Problems there so i decided to set up Emunand and when i tried to update emunand through System Settings i still got the Black Screen upon Entering. So thought maybe i should in unlink my Sysnand and Emunand maybe it would work. I opened System settings in Sysnand and went to format. After Format was complete the 3ds rebooted to a black screen. Everytime i turn it on its the same black screen.
You were missing a title in sysnand and so was your NAND backup but the big question is why restore a NAND back? Take out your SD card and battery then plug in a charger with the battery and no SD and tell me if it turns on normally and describe the power light if it does not turn on completely or at all.
Yeah, I thought starting from scratch would have fixed the system settings so i restored my SysNand. The backup was made the moment opened my N3ds out of the package. When i turn my 3ds on I get a black screen. The blue light, the wireless light and the charging light is on. I can get to the Recovery menu sometimes, if that helps. But I'd rather avoid updating if i can unbrick without doing so.
I think the backup may just be corrupt what did you use to restore it? Also you will need to get a hard mod your choices are @vb_encryption_vb or @hundshamer
Probably should have used Decrypt9 but that's just me but what I said earlier still stands your only option is to update through recovery and use the 3DS as is for now until you can get a hard mod.
I've seen this recently, the back up is most likely corrupt as stated. Your best bet is to enter safe mode if you can and hope to hell it updates.
Im assuming your original backup was made through gateway menu as well.

Yeah, gw does some funny things with nand backups / emunand creation as well.
Tried to update through safe mode, it wouldn't let me. Says "An error has Occured. Unable to update."
You could try hardmod, write the backup you have and see if it boots. Its possible when you transfered nand to sd card it corrupted.

yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done -

I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer

TwoSpikedHands:
Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?

@TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one

Sicklyboy:
I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version

TwoSpikedHands:
@Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!

I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it

@
TwoSpikedHands:
I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though

@TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway -
@
The Real Jdbye:
and realistically they wouldn't
be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves -

do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?

@The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
