That's why there is a 2 or more year warranty (if you don't violate the EULA).

Pirating software is a totally different thing from backing up or restoring your system.

There isn't a 2 year or more warranty. The standard warranty in most territories is 1 year.
yes, but what you're talking about is a slippery slope. regardless of what it was intended for, Nintendo might file that under unauthorized. I'm not saying I agree with it, but Nintendo might have a problem with it. 
Restoring nand is quite safe. AutoRCM is possibly detectable because it fudges with stuff in a violating-the-terms type way. Detection of RCM mode itself is irrelevant and is in no way linked to bans. RCM mode was by design. Any unauthorized changes made through it would be wiped out by a NAND restore, so there is literally no danger when doing so. To disagree is to not understand what RCM mode is and what it is for.

i have a clean backup and am on cfw with a lot of backups installed on SD, what partitions do I need to backup to keep these titles installed, if I go back to clean nand and then want to go CFW and play my backuos? Thanks
User partition should be enough. But backing up boot1/0 won't hurt you (as they are so small anyway). Simply said, go with full backup

Ah shit.. My NAND backup is not clean so I guess I'm fucked. No I'm not banned yet but this is worrying.
Any proof of that statement? Because in order for RCM use to be detected bootrom would have to have RCM logging built in. You can't log RCM use from HOS because RCM loads prior to HOS loading. It would need to be bootrom logging RCM use, which I'm doubtful it does.
It's not up to the store. It's a manufacturer warranty. All stores do is confirm the purchase of the device with Nintendo and this activates the warranty.
...why on earth would you break your device just to extend their already meager warranty...?

You have the burden of proof for stating it. You give them proof.

TwoSpikedHands:
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 -
@
TwoSpikedHands:
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!

@
TwoSpikedHands:
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
