Hello everyone,

I'm writing this because I managed to downgrade my O3DS and install CFW. However I'm such a noob regarding 3ds scene and I have some questions... So I hope you can help me please.


- Can I have both CFW and Homebrew launcher working on my 3DS?
- Can I play games from other consoles using CFW? (like GBA or sth else) What else can I do using CFW?

Finally...I have a 16gb SD card that I normally use on my 3DS with Homebrew launcher (I have Ironhax and Homemenuhax working on 10.3 before downgrading) and some games I got from the eshop (I made a backup of all the info some days ago). However, I installed my CFW using a 4gb memory card (the one that is included with the console) and I would like to know... Is there a way to transfer everything to the 16gb card? The idea is to have all the stuff on my SD card + CFW installed.

Thanks in advance >___<

1- Yes you can , try using browserhax and then install menuhax / CtrBoot manager to get them all at start by pressing the L button

2- You can , but you'll have to install them to your sysnand using FBI (there should be a tutorial about it somewhere)

3- try using the emunandtool9 (that might work , I'm pretty sure I'm wrong as I have never done it before)

Sure, of course you can. You can do it by using some *hax to boot the HBL like you would without CFW, or, by installing the CIA version of the Homebrew Launcher.
-Can I play games from other consoles using CFW?
Natively, you can only play 3DS, DSi and GBA titles from your CFW, but GBA can be very tricky to setup and requires some patches, so you are better installing CIA versions of emulators, check out RetroArch.

About changing your SD, do you have an Emunand setup? If that's the case, then you must backup your Emunand, format the new SD card, create a new Emunand partition on it, restore your backup to the new partition, copy all the files from the old SD to the new one. Your PC won't show the Emunand partition and files by default, I recommend using "3DS multi emunand creator" it's somewhere here at GBATEMP.

    did you always have a ps4 you never updated
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    or were you able to get new ps4 tracking it \
    as soon as the hack was announced
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    or did you have to find a used one with the lower firm ware that was not updated
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I got this ps4 at launch and never updated since 9.0
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    You got a good chance of buying a used one and asking the seller how often they used or even ask for a Pic of fw and telling them not to update
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    Speaking of PLaystation. I see Evilnat put out a beta for PS3 CFW 4.91.2 on the 22nd.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Don't really see the point in updating it tbh
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea you right, I thought about updating my PS3 CFW to 4.91, but why really, everything plays fine now. I guess for people that have already updated past 4.9 it would be helpful.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Idk if online servers are still active that would be my only thought

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Thats true, personally I don't play it online at all, in fact, I deleted all wifi details on it once I installed CFW, so it won't connect and auto-update itself
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I play most games that are on both PS3/360 strickly on the 360, but PS3 exclusives are really only games I play on the PS3 (You know me, I'm more of a Xbox junkie)
