I ami noob with sysnand there are possible with a9lh to update sysnand to 10.6 and after inject emunand.bin in?

Make sure you replaced the "rei" folder too. 3.7.1, if you don't use the "usepatchedfw" flag, only writes *one* more byte to SD to remember the last boot config (other than 1 MB for the FIRM file).

Yeah, did all that... not sure what is causing boot times to increase by 10 seconds using 3.7.1 as opposed to 3.6.1.

Edit: looks like using the usepatchedfw flag brought boot speeds back to normal now after starting over again. Not sure what features this will affect but at least it boots 15seconds as opposed to 25 on my 128gb

I'm using an O3DSXL with AurieNand + A9LH. BigBlueMenu injected takes forever to install .CIA's to EmuNand. It seems to take longer than when I was using RxTools with menuhax.

Try using FBI.

I tried the 3.7.1 with GBA games, it works well, the only downside is that I've got to unwrap every CIA after, because I use linked nands.
Except that, everything is ok so far.

stupid Question but has the TWL_Firm patches seen in rxTools been implemented?

 

[MSearles]

Try using FBI.

You're right. FBI works much faster. I've always Used BBM and it's always been great.

Nothing

Quick question, not sure if stupid or not but, how many patched FW files should there be? 2 or 3? One for Emu and one for Sys, or one for Emu, one for Sys, and one for Sys90?
I could of sworn I saw three this morning. Deleted them when I went to 3.7.1 this morn just to make sure they were being replaced with up to date ones, but now I only see the two.
Just want to make sure I wasn't just tired haha.

3.7.1 defo a couple of seonds slower booting, sticking with 3.6.1 for the time being

Did i read correctly? 10.4 support for n3ds?
Below 10.4 is working?

Any firmware 9.0+ is supported on the n3DS.

I can't see how writing a one-byte file to the SD can "slow down by seconds". You either have faulty SD cards with very long seek times (can't do anything about that), or it's placebo.
Anyway, 3.7.1 broke using the .dat from a 9.0 NAND booted via A9LH (I know I'm probably the only one who does that for testing reasons, but whatever ).
3.7.2 fixes it and clean ups the code a bit. https://github.com/AuroraWright/AuReiNand/releases/tag/v3.7.2

Thanks for the early reply, do you think i can find easy n3ds with firm 10.4 or below? I've been away from the scene for months, I have a o3ds rxtools.

Sure, all the n3DS (XL)'s in the market come with at most 10.3, which is downgrade-able to 9.2.

So feel free to buy which ever one interests you the most.

Great work @Aurora Wright. I like the ease of use and minimalistic approach of your ReiNand mod. Especially love that 9.0 firmlaunch sysnand feature. Keep up the awesome work.

I don't think their is even a system currently out that is above 10.3, the Pokemon N3DS LL I got came with 10.2

 

[MSearles]

Is there a way that you can tell which version you have for AuReiNand?

Great, one last thing i dont understand. Most people downgrade but this topic says there's a 10.4 firm support. Lets say my firmware comes with 9.9 or 10.1, I must downgrade?
