Hacking Help me, my SD card got corrupted

Deleted User · Jan 16, 2017

I installed arm9, everything was working, I installed and played some .cia games too... but then when I was transfering some new games to the SD card I got an error, and my pc can't read it anymore.

I lost all the files, what should I do? I got a new sd card, but there's nothing in it, and I can't access the old one to copy the files...

All I got is a backup file called "NANDmin.bin", and the folders from my 3ds before I hacked it.
also can't boot up without a sd card

You should get a new SD card first and then restore the backup you've got which is NANDmin.bin with either Decrypt9 or Hourglass9.

Also if you've got all the files from the SD somewhere you can just put them on the New SD and it should let you boot your 3ds.

You don't have to restore any sysNAND backup, don't listen to the above.

All you have to do is put arm9loaderhax.bin on the root of your new SD card for it to boot.

really? and after that can I copy the folder I have on my pc to the new card? "nintendo 3ds", "dcim" etc

vt6446 · Jan 16, 2017

Yeah If you have your files that were on your old SD card on pc you can just put all the files on another SD card and your 3ds should boot.

Yes, as long as you never formatted your console in between making that folder and now.

Did you read his post? Those files are before he hacked his console, so won't contain arm9loaderhax.bin.

so I don't need any of the files or folders I used during the process? like "luma", "soundhax", "files9"...
sorry it's the first time I'm doing it

what about homebrew launcher? do I need to install it again? I was using soundhax

@vt6446 I can't access my old sd card

When you start it up again the console will boot into Luma settings and then create a luma folder after you save. You don't really need homebrew, you can install nearly every app you'd every want to use.

@Quantumcat

Ah your right. I did read it but I misunderstood that he/she did have all the files on pc.

Ezpz, just put arm0loaderhax.bin from luma https://github.com/AuroraWright/Luma3DS/releases/download/v6.6/Luma3DSv6.6.7z
to the root of the new sdcard, and voila, it will generate all the needed files, as for Homebrew Launcher, you can install Homebrew Loader as a cia, and it will download all the neded files in order to acces to it.

I'm cool now. thanks for all the help, guys!

also copy arm9loaderhax.bin to ctr nand so it can boot without an sdcard.

I did that, now what should I do in this screen? thanks again

Select:
Autoboot to sysnand.
Use sysnand FIRM if botting with R.
and Show Nand or User String in the System Setting.

if you are using a New 3DS, also change New 3DS Cpu to Clock+L2,

I want to do this right, so I'm waiting for my new sd card to arrive, probably tomorrow. I'll post the results after that. ty

ok, I'll do that. it's also recommended formatting it to fat32 if it isn't already, right?

Don't use or buy cheap SD cards from eBay, they're often counterfeit cards that are prone to corruption. All you can do about your saves is cry about them if you had any
