Yeah aslong as you extracted it using the emunand tool it will be in the correct format to flash directly yo the nandI have a backup of my 7.1 emuNAND created by the GW card. Can I actually write this emuNAND to the actual real NAND?

yeah received like that, dont like to let a good board die so giving it a shotGood lord that's brutal. Was shipped to you like that? Looks like someone used a high watt soldering iron to that thing.

on a side note, someone messed up the resistor array a while back and didnt know the value's....thanks to my new camera you can see them ....they might of binned the board by now tho
So a while back I made this post in this thread about the possibility of embedding an actual card reader inside of the 3DS XL, mainly in response to the dangers of people using a USB port for physical connection when it is not actually USB. By the looks of it though, it seems that people were not really intersted in that post.
Anyways, I managed to actually get around to doing exactly that. This way I can connect my 3ds directly to my computer with just a standard microUSB-to-USB cable, just like a smartphone would and use win32diskimager on it, with a switch to select either normal 3DS operation or NAND flash/restore mode (no need for any custom cables anymore)
Here is one of my pictures of the mod I did (in spoiler tag due to size):
I have more pictures and details, but not sure if I should post them here or just make a new thread about what I did. Which would be better?
Nice, i also have a mini board like that that i was thinking of putting internally too, but i ended up not doing it for 2 reasons, 1 is that i din wanna solder anything in the 3ds, and 2 cause then it cannot be unbricked with raspi in case it's needed.
But it's cool like that xD why u used the extra dat lines? more speed?
I believe you still can unbrick it with raspberry pi. The pi will just simply detect a usb card reader and the unbrick program should still work.
lambstone
You can?
I have never needed to unbrick before, but AFAIK the Raspberry Pi unbricking software by bkifft worked by accessing the NAND via the SD slot, using low-level SD commands to be able to do what it does... or am I incorrect here?
What average read and write speed do you get? I get 2.2 MB/s. Is this normal?
Why do I only get 2.2 MB/s read and write speed? I have the Micro USB Mod installed on my 3DS XL.damysteryman said he gets 20MB/s with his setup. Old method is 5MB/s.
