Hey.
I sold my o3ds xl a long while ago without my sd card (micro sd to sd or whatever it’s called) . It had cfw and I dumped my original games as well, they should be somewhere on my sd card. There was also a homebrew software on my o3ds that I used to save my save games, it was called something like JKSV.

A lot of time has past now, so I forgot many things about 3Ds cfw.
I am grabbing today a new 3Ds xl and I am going to install cfw on it.
I would like to know if I could use my old micro sd card after I installed cfw on my n3ds ?
If I remember right, it would be a bad idea because there are also the Luma files, configurations etc.
So instead I would just remove all folders except the ones where my dumped games are and my save data. Can someone tell me where these files are saved at ? So I make sure to not delete these folders.

Ps. Another question: My n3ds xl is in a new condition, so it never got updated. I know I can install cfw on the latest firmware as well. But would it be better if I install cfw before updating the firmware and once I got it, to update to the newest firmware or is there no difference and benefit ?

Update the firmware first before you jailbreak the New 3DS XL. I don't think the games on your old SD card will work since it would be tied to the ID of your old 3DS.

Well. they said the games were dumped. So hopefully the cia files will be there. and the saves on jksv will just need to be injected back once each one is installed.

Thanks a lot. Yeah the games are dumped. I thought anotherthing understood me so I thought I couldn’t play my original dumped game really. Wouldn’t matter anyways since I could play Roms / .cia as well but seems like my original games work fine, so I don’t need to get roms :).

I will search my sd card for .cia files later when I grabbed my n3Ds XL.

They'd only be on there if he put the CIA files on there manually and didn't use the "Install and Delete CIA File" option in FBI. Universal Updater and hShop both automatically remove the CIA after they install something.

Yeah so the games will be there still :). I dumped them because I was selling that console. So after I dumped my games, I never used the console anymore. Didn’t install anything etc. And didn’t use fbi either. So i am fine :)

    Coax wire today is much better (RG6) than old school coax (RG58/59). Newer wire more expensive than the older wire.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    You can buy it at any length @homedepot wire cutting area cheaper than buying preformed cable, but you have to put on your own ends/ connectors.

    I still like DTV but the wire wasn't long enough to reach the window still pick up 40 channels

    Yea me too, esp for local news, sports, or channel surfing. I get like 60 channels but there's like 15 shopping networks, and bunch other bs, religion, Hispanic, etc. I went thru and blocked most those on tv channel settings.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    There is 1 Hispanic channel I kept, sometimes they have soap operas on it, w scandalous clothed hotties, I just beat mute it.
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Ah yes the Juan channel order 15 pairs of feet
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    I got this antenna but the damn thing has usb power right next to the coax plug and you can't actually extend it without usb extension the Pic makes the cable look longer than it actually is https://a.co/d/501IQf2
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Use a old phone/ USB charger block thing, plug into wall instead of tv usb. Use cheap extension cord if need.
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    You still need usb extension because coax end cord is the same length
