I heard that you will lost save data if you change headers. Is that true? I ordered a Sky3DS. My firmware is 9.8 (N3DSXL) if this info matters.

Darn.... How about backing up the save in diskwriter? I remember seeing an option to do so. There is "Back up save data" and "Restore save data".Save data is encrypted by the unique ID in the header of the rom/cartridge
So yes, you will lose your savegame
The only way to keep it:
CFW and SaveDataFiler, or NTR CFW + SaveData plugin
(these both require a 9.2.0 or lower 3ds/n3ds)
That will only back up the encrypted save, not the un-encrypted part that needs to be injected into the new saveDarn.... How about backing up the save in diskwriter? I remember seeing an option to do so. There is "Back up save data" and "Restore save data".
Darn. I guess I cannot switch headers later on so I have to choose a game I won't go online often. Since I couldn't extract the header from my offline game (Super Monkey Ball 3D), my second choice would be Pokemon Y. Is it safe to go online with Pokemon Y as long as it is not online at the same time as my Sky3DS?That will only back up the encrypted save, not the un-encrypted part that needs to be injected into the new save
Yes, It is safe to play online with A shared header as long as only one console is using at at a time.Darn.

Do you know why some games dont have headers?Yes, It is safe to play online with A shared header as long as only one console is using at at a time.
All games have headers.Do you know why some games dont have headers?
I used your powersave method. Both methods have been used multiple times. The game is not supported by action replay if this info is necessary, but I'm pretty sure thats just for codes. The game is bought at 3DS's launch day.All games have headers.
what method are you using to extract headers?
If the game isn't supported by powersaves (has no codes) then it doesn't fetch the uniqueID because it's unnecessary because the save Isn't being modified, only copied.I used your powersave method.

The 48 FF bytes don't seem to be there, even when scrolling down.
No wonder. Is there anyway to extract it though? If every game has a header, and is possible to be extracted by powersaves, there must be a way.If the game isn't supported by powersaves (has no codes) then it doesn't fetch the uniqueID because it's unnecessary because the save Isn't being modified, only copied.
If you really need the header, you can mail me the game and I'll dump it for you. (and mail it back of course)
Ripping the games with the gateway launcher (requires a <9.2 console) It will dump the full rom including the header.No wonder. Is there anyway to extract it though? If every game has a header, and is possible to be extracted by powersaves, there must be a way.
Dang, I got no choice but to rip out one of my other roms. It would be rather Animal Crossing or Pokemon Y.Ripping the games with the gateway launcher (requires a <9.2 console) It will dump the full rom including the header.
