Mine is now modded too.
I would have done it myself, but my new Soldering Station will arrive in the beginning of the new Year >_>
So our Team Member didi1000 did it for me, very nice job and thx again!
No you can't. It won't work well enough to get a good dump. Pay someone to do it or learn but don't try it like that or it just isn't going to work right.Instead of soldering, can't I just use some tape and glue?
I mean, all the wires need to do is make contact with the points right?
Soldering won't ruin it's value lol. It's easy to do it without leaving a trace. It will just corrupt your dump if it comes loose. Now loose wires could also touch other areas and short things in a way that does cause permanent damage. Not worth the risk.Will interrupting a dump session via powerloss, cable disconnect, etc...affect the system NAND at all?
Will it corrupt it or will the system still have its nand data intact?
BTW this is a 3DS XL Pikachu Edition. Im not planning on ruining it's value.
Have you tried using a different computer?I am at a point, too, where I would be willing to just pay someone to get this done for me (assuming costs aren't too over the top). I have already spent about $35 on SD adapters to no avail (you can see my work/frustrations from about page 30-37).
The frustrating thing is that I feel I did everything right and others in the thread do too (based solely on pictures of course) and I still can't get it working. My computer recognized the DS a total of ONE time after having tried plugging in what must be 500+ times now...
Well assuming you haven't scorched the points or anything, I could do it for you. Heck even if you have, I can probably still fix it. Shoot me a PM.
That's not a very good post, you don't elaborate at all about what you did to get to the point you are at right now. So don't expect much help until you do.I acidently updated to latest firmware But i did an NAND backup before Im trying to flash back my old nand image, but my computer doesnt find my nand?
i get the blue screen on my 3ds xl! Any help?
i used an micro sd adapter and was soldering (cmd TO LEG 3), (clk to leg 5), (Ground to leg 6) and (Dat0 to leg7)
Are you saying that plugging your modded system into the computer doesn't cause the computer to recognize what you did?
I am in the same boat... I've spent maybe two dozen hours on this thing.
By the way, if you don't have your older firmware already dumped, you are never gong to roll back, even if you get this working, FYI
