So my Sky3ds is getting here on friday and with all the "Ban Hammer" subject going on I was wondering if I would need to install my own Private Header, if so can I get the private header with a sky3ds and a legit retail cart? (for example Pokemon Y)
If your 3ds is on an older version (9.2), then you can do the gateway exploit to dump the header from a legitimate game card. Apparently, no gateway card needed to do this.
Otherwise, find someone who DOES have an outdated 3ds firmware and try it on theirs. It's fairly hard to find someone willing to give you their header.
ohh ok, so you can still use your 3ds online just not Roms on your sky3ds, I'll just turn my wifi off when I play on sky3ds thenI'm pretty much in the same boat as you. On 9.5, using sky3ds.
You can:
- Use street pass / spot pass
- Leave Wifi on. E-shop, internet browser, and any retail game that you own (like a retail cart of Smash Bros) will work online
- Use friends list
- Play games that have online capabilities (like smash bros, animal crossing, pokemon) OFFLINE**. I still have Wifi toggled on and my friends can check their friendslist to see that I'm playing Animal Crossing, but I risk running a ban if I use the game's online capabilities
or else they could of patched it
