Recently used my R4 SDHC Gold Pro 2017 to install LumaCFW and get the FBI goodness on my New3DS, but now I can't seem to find a way to obtain the Backup.bin for my cart to use it again as a Flashcart for DS games, and a tool to reflash it back to normal. Anyone have any help with this issue?

*UPDATE*
Solved my issue, and also used a special r4.dat and such for my cart as it patched the time-bomb that rendered the cart after reflashing with the correct backup.bin to not function.
Here's a link for a patched update for the R4 SDHC Gold Pro 2017 that removes the Time-Bomb issue: http://mkiddy.leerik.nl/R4i/Patched V1.84.zip

Hello. How exactly did you install CFW with the R4 Gold Pro 2017? I tried to use ntrboothax but it doesn't work! Could you please send me the files that I need to install Luma with?

I actually did it myself by following this guide: https://3ds.guide/flashing-ntrboot-(3ds-single-system)
(Used New 3DS XL)
It goes through the instructions and setup more detailed than I could possibly walk you through with on a forum site.

As for flashing, I personally also was stumped at first, but I tried all the cart types in the .nds flasher until the correct one flashed. Oh, and you also need a magnet after you flash the cart, and have all the correct files setup on your microsd

Theres an experimental flasher that worked for me on this card when the two linked on the 3dsguide didn't. It's not letting me post it here, it's saying it's spam. I'll try and PM it to you

It worked perfectly when I chose the SDHC family. And afterwards I used the patched files in this threads first post to restore functionality to my R4 card.

I hope this helps everyone who's having issues!

I tried to put the patched version 1.84 on my 2017 gold r4i linker to remove the timebomb and it is still active. I put the date in 2020 to see if the linker was going to be blocked by the time bomb and it is the case impossible to use my linker in 2020 with the patched version 1.84 which should normally remove the timbomb ...
