can you transfer/port data back to an old 3ds from a new 3ds using a pc or just the new 3ds? (if i have to homebrew to new 3ds I'm already planning on doing that)

No, the server and transfer app don't allow new to old
Only same to same or old to new
oak sail
Only same to same or old to new
do you know why this isn't possible? from the new to the old

System transfer runs through the eshop server
ow... and will it work with some kind of homebrew application?
warped stag
The server is needed to move the nnid, that your licenses are linked to
Homebrew can't touch the nnid and eshop server

can't the picture's or saves be transferred?
warped stag
Move the dcim folder for pictures
They're not encrypted
Saves are encrypted, locked to that 3ds, system transfer moves the key
Else you can call Nintendo to move the nnid link, but then saves don't move
System transfer is what moves everything to another system

aren't saves on the game cards? bc literally every game i have is a card
oak sail
Some carts like fantasy life only use extdata
what's that?
warped stag
Many games store a portion of their save in extdata
Save data location on sd
Look in data management in settings
Anything there is an extdata save on your sd
One of the fire emblem games uses it for save slots after 3

You've already been told everything

What is unclear about this?
Nintendo locked anything inside the Nintendo 3ds folder to the console, system transfer moves the keys
That's apps, updates, dlc, saves, etc
You can redownload everything but saves by having them move your nnid externally, that won't move the keys though

sorry man English isn't my first language and im tired like 25% of the things i type goes trough google translate to know if i typed it correctly and its actually the word i want to use
so its kinda hard to understand
warped stag
Nintendo locked saves and apps so they can't be shared or tampered with
The encryption protects from that
Can't give an unlocked smash bros save to a friend, they have to unlock their own content
And your account can only log into the system it is linked to on the server

No video guides are supported, per rules and pins in #modding @oak sail
The guide does give you a save manager
But that doesn't move your account or other data a system transfer does

Ow... sorry 😅

Well I'm going to be using pretendo
warped stag
And why not just move the cartridges as you said and see if the saves move?
You still need the nnid for eshop content like dlc

Ow bruh then I've been searching for nothing bc I have no dlc 💀
Literally none
