What is the best way to copy my EmuNAND to my SysNAND?

[mikefor20]

Hi all!

Just like the title says. What is the best way to copy my EmuNAND to my SysNAND?

Before replies of "copy the save files over and reinstall" come flying in let me just clarify...

I have an ONLINE EMUNAND. It is not banned and is 100% legit, I have been using it online for 3 years now. I don't need any ban warnings or anything.

Now I want to go 100% SysNAND! I need to copy the EmuNAND to the SysNAND in order to make it match what ninty expects and I don't get a ban. Can someone who knows please tell me the most reliable way? NandManagerNX to convert EmuNAND and then use Hekate to restore? EmuTool? Some other method? I will write a tutorial as well to help future users,

I TRULY appreciate your help with this matter and appreciate any and all suggestions.

NandManagerNX to convert EmuNAND and then use Hekate to restore?

That should be the way to do it in theory.
So far I have only seen people move save files over from the emunand to the sysnand.
In your case you just need to copy over all the files.

Use the restore function on hekate. That's what nyx is made for

"copy all files?" This is confusing. I dont care about the saves. I need all logs and telemetry to match Nintendos copy so I don't get a ban.

Use the restore function on hekate. That's what nyx is made for

How? I need to backup the EmuNAND and then restore it to SysNAND? Could you please elaborate?

Nop, you read the documentation on Hekate.

the EmuNAND (EmuMMC) is a bunch of files (or a raw partition) so:
If it's a partition you have to convert to files, backuping it or using EmuTool (search here on gbatemp).
if your is bunch of files (or a raw partition converted) then you copy the files to the restore folder on your SD card and use Hekate to restore it.

Also you can use https://github.com/eliboa/NxNandManager

I have a hidden partition EmuNAND I have been using with Atmo. I am familiar the Emutool and NandManagerNX, Do you think this is the most reliable way to accomplish this? Is NandManagerNX or EmuTOOL more reliable? I don't want any mistakes. I very much care about getting banned. Just looking for reassurance to quell my OCD.

I truly appreciate your time and input.

So.. I did it. For anyone searching in the future,

1. I converted Hidden EmuNAND to Atmosphere files using emutool.
2. I put the files in backup/xxxx/restore
3. I used Hekate to restore. Forgot to preserve fuses... oh well

Thanks for the input!
