Thanks for the info but im still new to gateway. To back it up do i just backup everything in my SD card?

No, that won't work, emunand data is stored on a hidden part of the SD. You need to use emunand tool.
 
Make sure you are in emnand!!! I have not seen any reports yet of a new system update.
 
backup emunand using this

update.....if it all works, juct check your system version, it will likely either be
a) you partially updated last time you updated, meaning it still wants to finish off the update(it will show the same ver. after updating)
b)it may just be a minor update (browser/eshop related) which is shown as a minor revision (ver.x.x.x-X)
c) there is a actual new update that for some reason nobody else is getting....in which case it would probably just black screen on entering emunand, so you would just restore your backup

thanks for this, no need for me to search it in google :)
 
New fw tended to not work on emunand due to the old encryption keys employed on 4.x consoles. So if there is an update, it will most likely black screen if you attempt to boot it on 4.x consoles and Gateway would have to release an update to add support for it.

However on 7.x+ consoles, I don't see why it wouldn't work because the encryption should be compatible. I'll back up my 9.4 emunand and see if there's an update. :D

EDIT:

No system update that I can see. Not for my consoles region anyways. (I have a North American console)
