Hardware New 3DS to smartphone

[Riversong]

So I've enjoyed the New Nintendo 3DS since AC: Happy Home Designer came preinstalled with it. I know that you can link with your home wi-fi to pull data from off of the device and put it onto your harddrive on your PC. My question: is there an app (or some other method) for an Android Galaxy S9+ that allows the same thing that my PC does (i.e. link with my smartphone to my N3DS)?

Any ftp app from the Googlestore will work my fellow Whovian.

Cool; do I need to get a wifi hotspot going or will the app automatically recognize the signal from the N3DS?

FTP between 3DS and Android.

So I need to mod my 3DS? Or just follow steps 3 & 4 or spoilers?

Yah, you'll need to hack your n3DS with custom firmware if want to use FTP between the devices. Our replies were with the assumption you were a fellow 3DS homebrewer.

This will help you in your path of joining the dark side.

You really just need basic homebrew to be able to use ftp.

But if you get that far, you might as well just spend the extra 30 minutes to get cfw (aka full control or "rooting" the system).
Doing Steelminer is about 70% of the work towards full cfw.

Yeah I honestly was hoping since I had the New 3DS (not the standard) I could just download an app to my phone that would recognize the signal my N3DS sends out like my PC does to connect wirelessly to my N3DS.

Sorry you are then out of luck as there is no app that can do that and there never will be one.

Ahhh that's too bad; thanks for all the help.

Possible, thanks to MicroSD Management. The issue is that MicroSD Management is really hard to get working with anything other than Windows, and these days even Windows 10 has disabled support for SMB 1.0 so it won't even work on that without jumping through hoops. I've tried a couple file explorers on Android that have SMB support and neither were able to connect to the 3DS. However that doesn't mean there aren't others that will work. Keep in mind it's slow (tops out at about 1MB/s)

Thanks, that's what I've been hinting at & no one picked up on that. I'll experiment then

The ones I tried were ES File Explorer (not recommended btw, these days it's adware and possibly spyware) and Solid Explorer, but there are a lot of file explorers on the Play Store and I couldn't possibly try them all. There are probably specific apps just for accessing files on SMB shares too, and if your Droid is rooted you could install whatever version of SMB/CIFS you need that way and use scripts to mount the 3DS file share.

TotalCommander + SMB plugin (TotalCmd-LAN) does work but FTP is the better option for homebrewed/cfw'd devices.
