Hacking How to seperate sysNand from Emunand on 9.2?

[jimskeet2002]

Will doing so re-link the sysnand and emunand?

No
I have seperated sysnand and emunand.

The process I did was.
1)boot sysnand
2)remove 3ds big sd card
3)format system memory
4)did the whole process of setting up 3ds as it was like running for 1st time
5)inserted 3ds big sd card and let it creat homemenu stuff
6)Entered my NNID information on sysnand

After that my emunand doesn't lose theme choices or ask me to unwrap presents every time I booted on it so it is seperated.

Thanks for the reply, I'll format my sysnand because the unwrapping of the gifts on every boot is so tedious.

 

[jimskeet2002]

Yeah just follow the steps I told you

After formatting sysnand can you use the apps or games you had downloaded from the eshop on it? Or they don't work anymore?

 

[Sosainas]

But you have to reformat the emunand to enter the eShop because NNID information get corrupted in emunand until you format it again, isn't it?

I have the same question.

That is what I said earlier. I didn't reformat emunand after formating sysnand. If you try to go into the eshop on emunand without first entering your NNID info on sysnand you will get an error. If you first set up your NNID on SYSNAND using your existing NNID info that are already into the emunand then when you go to eshop in emunand it works normally

Ok
I have good news. After I formatted sysnand I entered my NNID on the sysnand and it allowed me to go into eshop on emunand after getting some messages like when you run eshop for the first time. So there is no need to format emunand after seperation. Just input your NNID on sysnand

Aha, this is what I was thinking it goes online for -- the manual says you should delete your e-shop account before formatting. Apparently, it didn't always do this for you, but now it goes online to ensure the eshop info gets removed before it allows the format to proceed. I'm guessing a few people got charged for games they didn't buy, so they added this as a safety precaution. Anyway, looks like NNID is one thing EmuNAND doesn't simulate (completely anyway), just like the 6.x save key.

 

[Sosainas]

My NNID doesn't work on emuNAND, and I had it linked in my sysNAND before creating the emuNAND. It should work, but doesn't.

 

[Kazuma77]

I think I've read that going into the data management menu in emunand will end up uninstalling some data such as themes or games. I may be wrong though.

Incorrect, it's usually going into Data Management in SysNAND that causes problems. Unlinking usually eliminates that problem.

You can safely format sys nand yes it needs to connect to the internet but no it will not update i just tried it on my 3ds that has a nand mod and it did not update the firmware

I had the same thing, I couldn't find any information about it on this forum and just did it anyway and it went fine. Was a bit scary though

 

[Kino Akuro]

sorry to be so noob, but can someone answer me this question >.<

setting up emunand on my 9.2 will delete everything on my sd card rigth? so that means it will delete my e-shop games, my patches, my save games, etc. Is there anyway to keep all my things together and not be deleted when setting up emunand? if so how?

thanks in advance

 

[twicefalles]

backup the SD card

 

[Kino Akuro]

backup the SD card

so if i do that i can put all my stuff back just when the exploit finished formating emunand? and all will be there without no problem?

 

[Thomas12345]

so i have a 9.2 3ds with some legit games bought from eshop, if i do this procedure:

1. set up emunand
2. remove SD card
3. unlink emunand by formating sysnand
4. reinstert SD card and enter nnid on sysnand

will i still have my eshop games? can i play them from emunand?

 

[redact]

why not downgrade to 4.5? it would be less hassle triggering the exploit every time as well as not requiring an internet connection to format nand

Oh right let me just download the downgrade file from GW's website, that'll be easy

Thanks for the heads up, I was wrongly informed.

0. Backup SD card
0.5. Dump your NAND just in case
3.33. Delete the new "Nintendo 3DS" folder from the SD card
3.66. Copy the original "Nintendo 3DS" folder back to the SD card

Add those steps and yes. Since we have a way to restore NAND dumps now, unlinking is low-risk. Step 4 should be unnecessary if you downgrade before step 3.
