That's basically just saying, "Can I transfer a game to another console?" The only way to do so is system transfer, unless you are below 9.3. Otherwise, we would also be able to just have one big "SD Card" on Dropbox, with the files for every game in the 3DS library. Copying the dbs won't matter.There is a way, however, to transfer save files from 1 3DS (Or the internet) to another, as long as they both have the same game, and have firmware 6.0.0 or higher, even if you don't have access to homebrew on either.

noob question: How is that done?

You were basically just asking if you could make a backup of your game and your dbs, format your 3DS, and then put the dbs back in. That is essentially the same as saying "Can I backup a game and put it on another console?" Not to mention how many errors you would get if you tried to modify ticket.db. Sorry, it just doesn't work like that. (Also, you really need to work on your English. I can barely understand you're posts.)

I will add it to the main post Soon™.

Sorry, I meant between SD Cards on the same 3DS. It is entirely possible that it works between different 3DS's, but I doubt it. For transferring between 3DS's, you are going to need homebrew on both to use SVDT. Also, triple post merge!

No offence, but either you're 8 years old, or you just don't know how to spell or use proper grammar. It doesn't have to be perfect, but please try a little harder.

Hi! right now I have menuhax(or themehax) on 10.1 .


I'm planning to get the physical cartridge to get an additional entry point (i believe it's either cubic ninja/zelda/super smash bros).
My questions are:
1. Is it a good idea to get another entry point like this? honestly i couldnt care less about gaining access to eshop, id rather not being able to access it than not being able to access homebrew.
2. which one out of those 3 is the safest method or the better ones?
3. about zelda, so lets just say that i managed to install it with powersave via injecting the save files. Do i have to use that zelda's cartridge everytime i wanna access homebrew? what if im trying to modify other cartridge's files with homebrew?


Thank you for opening this thread, sorry if my questions are too much. I dont want to lose my current access point but i want backup, even thinking of getting a spare second hand 3ds if i have to.

1 - I think it's okay to just get one.
2 - OOT, since CN costs more than it should, and Smashhax has been patched and is a kinda difficult way to get HB access.
3 - If I get what you're saying, I'm pretty sure the cartridge only has to be in when you load the Homebrew Launcher, and you can take it out once it's been loaded.

Yeap thats exactly what I mean! so when im inside homebrew launcher later, just remove the OOT cartridge and put in whatever it is that ill be using?

Also, is OoT have a specific firmware requirement? such as it only works on certain o3ds but not n3ds? or it works even on the latest o3ds and n3ds? thanks again for answering!

I think OOT works on both o3DS and n3DS. I'm not 100% sure though.
EDIT: Like, the homebrew thing.

Is there a way to install oot3dhax in a way that i keep a slot to actually play the game? (under 10.3 if that changes anything)

Yes. All you have to do is install it normally. It only takes up one save slot I believe. Its Ironhax and Ninjhax that take up all of the save file.

Ironhax takes up only 1 slot.

 

[GalladeGuy]

Ironhax takes up only 1 slot.

Really? I always thought Ironhax takes up all the slots. I guess Ninjhax doesn't take up any save slots, but it makes most of the game unplayable.
