Hacking Well this is depressing

[skridsko]

Can anyone point me to the instructions of updating emunand to 9.5 via CIA? Thanks.

 

[Kracken]

You can get 9.5 still with gateway emunand though, except if you're on 8.1J you'll have to update sysnand to 9.0~9.2 first.

I know, just pointing out why someone would want 9.5 over a lower FW.

They don't exist yet since you need to do the final step with custom code.

Thanks, what's the latest version that can be updated via this method then?

You can update to 9.2 via rom for US/EU (SSB for US, Cooking Mama for EU). You may be able to update to 9.4 via rom for US or JP (Code Name Steam for US, Majora's Mask for JP).

I'd just hang out. Games still work online. You can get updates and install them from cia. You have no reason to use the eshop nor do you have to ever. Just hang out.

As for me if I buy a N3DS I want to system transfer and I cannot till they update it. So I will probably buy my n3DS and then just not use it till they fix it.

Even though it doesn't really matter, I still feel like I BARELY FUCKING MADE IT updating my emunand a few hours ago.

As long as a game doesn't require a higher firmware to run you are set anyways. The only game that needs 9.4 so far is CN Steam.

I just want to say online still works with 9.5. So people who are in 9.5 emunand are safe

Online always works if you have the latest update for the game you are playing correct?

oooh, nevermind then.

As long as a game does not require a higher firmware this is correct. I just played MH4U on 9.5.0-23U and went online perfectly. Could be so much worse.

CN Steam NEEDS 9.4? Just because it includes it doesn't mean it's required

The past three days from what people told me and what I read online everyone recommended buying a New 3DS on the proper firmware and getting gateway and all the things necessary for it instead of getting a Sky3DS, how Gateway was future proof while Sky3DS can easily be patched.

Then I spent HOURS searching for stores nearby me and having them check the batch number to make sure I can get one that's under 9.2

And now that I literally bought my N3DSXL 15 minutes ago, it turns out that Gateway has been screwed over in the 2 hours it took for me to go out and come back home

Should I just return it and try to get an original 3DSXL and hope that it's <9.2 or just get a Sky3DS?

Gateway screwed you? You screwed yourself with your half-assed research, relying on others instead of going to the source itself.

From Gateway's site on the 3rd of February

We also want to inform our users about some news regarding emunand support for the New 3DS:
We will not be able to support emunand 9.5 or higher for a while on the New 3DS. This is only an issue for the New 3DS, the old 3DS and 2DS will never have this issue. This is not a definitive barrier, but we feel it necessary to inform our users that while we are still working on releasing our New 3ds support, we will not be able to provide support yet for 9.5 emunand or higher for New 3DS on release.

Now shortly after this it was revealed that Nintendo fucked up their encryption attempt allowing Gateway to support 9.5

Support for anything higher than 9.5 was never guaranteed.

It's a shitty situation for all of us. But Gateway isn't to blame. You are.

Right, but beware. 23U blocks out Pokegenning via web injection.

It'll get worse. Now that 9.6 is out we're going to see a wave of version patches following it.

Pokegenning via web is totally irrelevant because gateway has savedatafiler...

All this does is not allow us to do online play for awhile so calm your asses down. Sit back and catch all 721 pokemon in the meantime.

Pokemon Shuffle is the one and only reason. Annnnd unfortunately I'm addicted to it

EmuNAND doesn't just stop working simply because you don't have the latest version. You simply don't have the latest version. You won't be able to access the eShop.

In theory, they could release games that require 9.6+ before we have access to it, but we should cross that bridge when it comes. It's nothing to freak out about.

As for your question, you can use a Sky3DS on your 9.0 that you just spent the time to find, so why not get both? Alternatively, why not just wait? You can use 9.0 EmuNAND in the mean time, and unless you were just dying to go on the eshop, there's really nothing that you're prevented from doing at this point.

Gateway ain't screwed in any way shape or form... I don't really think much has been lost by being unable to update emuNAND, except for updating your games through the eShop.

Gateway is fine. You can likely still do everything you've been wanting to do.

Okay so I have a New 3DS on 9.0.0

What do I have to do now to get gateway working? What will I have to buy besides Gateway itself?

After getting Gateway is there a way for me to get to Emunand 9.5? Will I still be able to do a system transfer from my current 3DS on 9.5?

What will I NOT be able to do and what will I be able to do?
