A while ago I let my sister use my 3DS, and during that time she named herself on TWL_FIRM with her name obviously. I want to change the name but there is no option to do so, only message and birthday. I formatted my 3DS once and the data was still there.

I have a 2DS that uses A9LH + Luma

If this is a noob question I apologize as I think this is a decent question.

Yes I tried to use JK Save Manager, TWL_FIRM didn't appear.

Try changing your 3DS mode name

Can't you use the Config app in the leaked sdk to change the 3DS name?

Thank you for trying to help, but there are a few problems.

1. I don't know where to get the leaked sdk

2. I'm trying to change the name that displays in DS Mode, not the name of my 3DS. I can change my 3DS name fine, but there is no option to change the DS Mode name.

Though of the sdk allows you to change your DS Mode name, I at least want a lead to where I can get the sdk since we can't link it.

Uh.... you can change your name from system settings? Go to Other Settings -> Profile -> DS Profile and there you have it

Already tried that, I only get the option to edit the Message and the Birthday on mine. No option to edit the name. I'll show you a sceenshot when I can.

Thanks for the suggestion though.

I think that changing the 3DS name using the leaked sdk also changes the DS Profile name... lemme test

EDIT:Nope

If you have a flashcard, you can run firmware.nds on it, and you can set the name and message for the DS Profile.

I do have an R4, could you link the nds here or through PM? Or do I need to go to that ISO site?
