Ok awesome! I'm getting my Hardmod (Nand R/W stuffs) installed this week so if anything does go wrong would i be able to fix it using my NAND.bin backup??

sure, just stay away form system cias (stuff like fw etc), and you will not need to worry. but yes if anything did go wrong just flash your nand backup back :)

One question; not sure if you even know this one :P is it possible to install the dev-tools using BigBlueMenu? I'm pretty sure it wont because of the dev signed .cias but might as well ask anyways :)
yea, it should work on EmuNAND with Gateway and/or on CFW (worked for me on CFW)

Oh and one more thing in order to run .cia files on sysNand does it have to be fw 4.5? or can it be like 9.2 for example??

It has to be 4.5CFW, anything above that you'll have to run the gateway exploit to launch the CIA

When you're in sysnand the CIA's will appear, but trying to launch them will error (cos sysnand checks the sigs!) but if you boot into gateway mode through the browser exploit, it patches the sig checks and you're fine. You have to run the exploit everytime you turn your 3DS off though. Try to stick to sleep mode.

Which one is the quickest to get updated?
If BBB is indeed just a rename, perhaps DevMenu has the newer versions first than BBB.

'bigbluemenu' is just one release, maybe they will rebrand another devmenu when an updated one gets leaked, but nothing yet.
the latest devmenu you can find, is the same version as the only version of bigbluemenu.

bigbluemenu.cia is just devmenu from sdk 6.20 with different icon.

installing selfmade cia from 3ds into sysnand is not a good idea. it will be logged into ticket.db with invalid titlekey.
removing titlekeys is not possible without restoring your original ticket.db (restoring first backup nand.bin).

Guys, guys!!! I've successfully installed an update 1.1 on sysNAND for Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate. It was thrilling :s But finally get it to work. The title showed up with ver 1.1 So I can go online.
I'm using a New 3DS XL 9.0-U with Zelda OoT exploit and GW. Monster Hunter 4 Legit NAND and 1.1 cia update for US region. Wew, I got real lucky that it didn't brick my sysNAND.

Also, I have a little question:
I took 3 dumps so far of my New 3DS XL 9.0U system NAND with Gateway menu and check them with HxD. Their MD-5 are completely different from each other. Isn't is strange? Or it is? Also just noticed that New 3DS has bigger NAND size (approx 1.8GB) compare to O3DS (9xxMB)

And I know that GW System NAND backup (NAND.bin) file is somewhat different from direct-read NAND of a hardmoded new 3DS. So how to re-flash an earlier GW backup to an already bricked then moded New 3DS XL?

P/s: liomajor's Save backup workaround works great backing up my MH4u save from my O3DS XL emuNAND to my new 3DS XL sysNAND :D

EDIT: Going online deletes my update, sadly. Maybe capcom server checked the ticket of the update and found out it wasn't properly signed :(

    i used to go out to the recycling center every couple weeks and look at the crts and other electronics people would drop off. Usually screens were broken or severely scratched from being tossed around. Did find a good one here and there, but never anything like a 1080i widescreen crt.

  • a_username_that_isnt_cool @ a_username_that_isnt_cool:
    Is it piracy if it was released for free? Not in my opinion, but I also think it's not piracy if buying it isn't owning it, and it's not piracy if you can't buy it from the original creators anymore.

    Free release can have loopholes where they still make money through ads
