I'm hearing something about UpdateCDN.....

But how is it going to work on N3DS ? Check the quote below.


Well it's not about spoofing files
I mean if you were to flash a 9.4 FW dump taken from a NAND of an old 3ds on to the NAND or emunand of a new 3ds then it would be missing the driver files for the new hardware ,the hardware is different NFC, face detection ,light sensor ,no wifi switch ,extra buttons etc
Someone made a post saying flashed an old 3ds FW to n3ds here before not sure if they were trolling but they said it didn't work and crippled the n3ds features but trolling or not I imagine that is exactly what would happen

Someone in another thread was telling me about a cia that installs 9.4. That will have to be googled as linking to files are not allowed here. Thats as far as I got with that one.
 
Everything (basically) in eshop is available via .cia and you can still play online even without the latest firmware. There is no point to having 9.5 on a N3DS at this time.


Some new games will have 9.5 encryption , so without emuNAND we can't play them

But how we are going to update to 9.3?

UpdateCDN would just need the locations of the N3DS firmware files, silly. It's the same process after that. In fact, the list he references may already have them inside it! The build script may just need to be updated.

The save crypto isn't legit crypto on Gateway saves and hasn't been for a long time, so it shouldn't matter.

I'm thinking this as well. If I can get a n3dsl and wait for the release for support its worth trying to update emunand to 9.4. HECK, nothing to lose since its emunand.

Well we will see once it's out :)
 
Just to be clear, don't try to install the 9.4 3DS UpdateCDN .cia to a N3DS, you will just fudge up your emuNAND. Wait until he updates the script so that it can pull and package the N3DS firmware files.
 
CIA support for n3ds the same as 3ds? I can't say as I don't have a n3ds and I don't have to release to support n3ds.

What I meant was there are different versions of 9.4. Both for regular 3ds xl and N3DS. My concern was about what would happen if one attempted to update N3DS emunand via a 3DS FW. It would probably not work ? But I guess the method works differently as SonyUSA said, I'm still not sure how though.
 
I'm curious of some stuff, and since SonyUSA is here, I'd appreciate if you could answer these questions.

In a few weeks, I want to import a N3DS regular white from Australia. I understand that it is region locked, yes. The seller says that the devices have been shown to be 9.0 or below. If I purchase Gateway Carts, would I be able to use those with it once the support is released? I don't have much use for eSHOP, and Regionthree will be likely be ported to the N3DS soon, meaning we will be able to launch games despite firmware specifications, so the whole emuNAND problem isn't much of a problem to ME. All I need to know is if I will be able to use them, back-up my games, convert, and install to my 9.0 emuNAND.

Different hardware specs....thats notable from the get go. So if there are hardware differences then you can bet that there are different firmware releases per system. Why else do you think GW is having such a hard time with this release.

As long as the N3DS EUR is 9.2 or below, Gateway will allow you to use all the features everybody enjoys now with emuNAND up to 9.4. That means region-free, backing up your carts, playing online, installing .cias, etc. You can keep your emuNAND on 9.0 if you want and still play online and such, the features don't change. Also, you don't need Region3 with Gateway, everything is already region free in emuNAND.
