Hacking Questions about Region Changing

[Psi-hate]

Okay, so here's the plan. I wish to turn my European 4.5 3DS into a US 4.5 3DS with eshop access/system transfer capabilities. I would like to know specifically HOW I'm supposed to do this and what I need. I can't pin down a proper thread to help me completely in this case. All help is appreciated.

We don't know at this point if that is possible or not.

Here is something you can attempt which may or may not work: https://gbatemp.net/threads/poc-3ds-region-changing-proof.378110/page-17#post-5402737

1. Prepare 3 SD cards with emuNAND:

• Card A has EU emuNAND and a European NNID.
• Card B has EU emuNAND and no NNID
• Card C has US emuNAND and a US NNID

2. Insert card A and open the eShop. (Log in or create an NNID if you haven't yet)

3. Exit emuNAND and switch to card B
4. Open the eShop on card B. It will fail with an error message.
5. Switch your 3DS off

6. Insert card C and it should work fine

If you are able to get a working emunand, you should be able to restore it to sysnand (be sure the proper FIRMs are installed first).
