From an excerpt, I get this with Google Translate:
ROM dumps are not any, to recognize the header If you are unsuccessful "Bad Header.Try reinserting card." And I get.[/p]
So it seems it doesn't dump ROMs, and the subsequent text also only talks about savegames.

will only return "bad header read error please re insert card" when 3ds cart inserted and dump attempted, will do nothing else = total fail on multiple levels.. Front page not right.

lol and this news was front paged. humans u gotta love em'.
Note the topic post shows the image which says bad header so even it didnt work unless SMS2 doesnt work at all. Then again, what about the listed dumps?

why wont legacy release their software or methods huh?

EDIT: The forum and the name itself indicates the dump is a save not the game

The theory behind dumping a 3DS ROM is very simple and should be no different to reading any other type of memory chip. So the people who actually need the ROMs, such as people who are interested in the security of the device have already been able to dump files ages ago.
Therefore this should be no different to dumping a DS game, but this software looks a bit more intelligent. It seems that it is attempting to dump the ROM as it would with any other DS game, but the intelligence comes in and stops the dump because it doesn't detect a normal DS header.

From what I can see here this has only been updated to read newer EEPROM chips, which store the savefiles in the 3DS carts and would explain why only the details of the EEPROM sizes as been published.

Yes! we are getting closer to a 3ds hack. I think there will be some sort of hack in 3-6 months.

did it work ?
the tool?

Yes it works, they said its able to read EEPROMS and it reads EEPROMS...just bad that EEPROMS are only used for save stats and don't have actual game code.

who knows! But this will not help anything, as its just reading the save stats and not the ROM with the gamecode.

One thing I do not understand very well lol This software allows you to copy a ds and it allows room at the same time to copy the backup (and not up to copy the game) a game 3ds? Is what it is software to copy games (ds, dsi and perhaps 3ds ....) or it is just software for progression? Maybe that will copy the sms four games 3ds ...
Otherwise I think it is a step forward for the hack of 3ds same except that the copying progress. Just do not do this in a week and we need to test before obtaining a thing. The hackers are probably tearing their hair, Nintendo certainly has planned the coup. They know how to dump a game and it may be impossible to copy.

Hey, from a speed running perspective, being able to backup save files without too much extra hardware is AWESOME.

Team Neoflash is such... words don't describe it. I think your Team NeoCa$h is best.

I like how people all think this is progress; in reality it doesn't get us any closer. Behind the scenes they have already supposedly dumped 3DS roms, and saves; the people who know what they are doing are already past this point. >_>

It is upsetting how people think this instantly gets us closer to playing roms, because well... it doesn't. We technically are at the same point.

Currently it's just game saves.....that doesn't help the Chinese until we can dump entire roms so still no flash carts or playing 3ds roms for a while
