I have the most recent .sav file (attached to this post) from my unmodded o3DS XL from before my microSD card had succumbed to hardware failure about 6 years ago. Now that Pretendo has come into public beta, I decided to homebrew my o3DS XL in hopes that I could actually recover the save file and play it online (when they get around to building support for it). If it helps at all: I have not done a system format I still have the original (though corrupt) microSD card My copy of ACNL is the original digital release that has received the Welcome Amiibo update, and is not the re-released ACNL:WA game Things I have tried: Pasting a copy of the original 00000001.sav file back into the "title/00000000/00086300/data" folder and attempting to run the game Doing the same thing, but using FBI to delete the secure value before running the game Importing a copy the original 00000001.sav with Checkpoint and JKSM Using ninfs with my moveable.sed and boot9.bin to decrypt a copy of the save and then retrying the above sequences Download Save3DS, but the program doesn't even open on my computer Run a copy of the original 00000001.sav through some converters online to turn them into .dat files (one specifically for Pokémon, one for VC games) to try opening it up through the online ACNL save editor which requires a garden.dat/garden_plus.dat Trying the above steps on my homebrewed n2DS XL Uninstalled and reinstalled the game through the 3DS's data manager Uninstalled and reinstalled the game with its ticket through FBI Attempted the prior sequences with and without the Welcome Amiibo update patch Any help would be greatly, greatly appreciated.. Even just knowing if I'm completely boned from experienced users would give me solace in knowing that there was never a chance to get it back in the first place. If it isn't possible to recover the whole save file, I hope it's at least possible to recover information like my Dream Address, villagers, and so on; that way I could at least use the aforementioned save editor to earnestly try to recreate my town.

Hi, I'm a newbie in all this matter. I have an old 3ds Firm 4.2 and want to hack it to install Luma3DS. I have looked at the tutorials and in the process you need to update the console through the online. Is it possible to update the 3ds via online after the closure of nintendo servers?

Thank you.

Just start with the Guide and enter your current version. It will show you the appropriate method.

Online update should work normally after installing B9S.

Good luck and have fun!

Thank you. I will do so.

One question, do I have to configure the internet connection before installing Luma 3ds or can I do it afterwards? I say this because years ago they said that if you activate the internet connection, the 3ds was updated automatically. Can I then configure the connection after having hacked the console? I'm sorry, but it's been years since I've touched the console and I never connected it to the internet (in fact I have the wifi button off).
