Hacking Unbricked 3DS and Games problems.

[ivoyko]

Well after more than 2 years or 3 without use... i unbricked my Cosmos Black 3DS thanks to ntrboothax... yay but now its when comes more problems. When i turned on my unbricked 3DS, some problem about dscrypt CTRNAND transfer appeared, and i has to do a CTRNAND transfer. Well i finished and i have full working my old 3DS. Now the problem... my old games dont appear. They are on my SD bc my Nintendo folder its really big and i can see them on my 3DS if i go to Setup - Apps - where all games appear... but the number block than should appear in orange now appear in gray. At least they are not deleted but would be cool have them back working. I have a nand backup but if i restore my nand, then it come back to CTRNAND transfer error. I need know if i can fix it or i surrender.
And same than always: sorry if this isnt the correct place but im a almost noob.

Follow this guide: https://3ds.guide/region-changing

It says it is for region changing, but it looks like it works as a fine guide for CTRTransfers in general and details how to recover your old tickets.

1. Do the following process for either the eshop folder, unknown folder, or both
   • Navigate to the folder
   • Select “<current directory>”
   • Select “Install and delete all tickets”
   • Wait. The system may appear to freeze, just give it time.
   • Press (A) to confirm
   • Press (B) to decline installing tickets from CDN.
2. Press (Home) to exit FBI
   
   My unknown folder dont have any ticket and im sure than i have some no eshop games o.o

I'm just amazed at how helpful people are here. Nintendo would have charged this person $99 to repair a 6 year old console that isn't worth $70 used.

I think Ntrboothax was really usefull for a lot of people.

You can use TikShop to install all tickets to get your games back, then just use TikSweep when you're done and it will erase all of the unused ones for less clutter.

The problem its than some games wasnt from eshop D: Stupid question (and i dont know if i can ask it here) : If u install a CIA from a game than already has... u lose the save? I mean: my last option its do cias again and install them but i dont know if that would overwrite the games saves.

You'd have to back up the save before you uninstall the game, use JKSM. All files associated with that title (except the ticket) will be erased.

The problem its than JKSM dont detect than i have that games because their block number its gray when should be orange on setup (where appear all games than u have) but i found a good tool for subtitute it. I lost my Devil Survivor save near the end and i dont know if some others because i discover the tool late but well that only mean than i can do a better game this time... bc how i said my 3ds bricked a lot ago but i remember than i dont has a lot of options in the final chapter.

Like I said, any that show as greyed out need to be installed again BEFORE you try to export the saves from them. Whatever one's weren't from the eshop you'll just have to find and download again. You could have saved the data, if you had used TikShop like I told you before.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Titles show Grey in Data Management - Install Tickets for those Titles - Export saves - Uninstall Title - Reinstall Title on another 3DS - Import Saves - Profit.
