Help!

[waxen kayak]

uh hey everyone, my 3DS has a broken touchscreen, and I wanna do a system transfer. The thing is, I need to log in with my NNID to do so, both systems are modded, and I don't know how to get through this. I tried replacing the digitizer, but there are some stripped screws on the motherboard, anyone got advice? Like, ANY advice. I'd appreciate if anyone can lmk abt a way I can overcome the NNID sign in.

[bitter pier]

You can do a movable moveover instead https://wiki.hacks.guide/wiki/3DS:Movable_Moveover

[waxen kayak]

does that send save data and everything too?

[bitter pier]

The save data on the broken console's sd card will be readable by the new console

This will not move over your NNID

[waxen kayak]

i see, so what if I wanted my NNID on the new console?

[bitter pier]

Any installed apps will be moved to the new console, but anything owned by your NNID that isn't installed will not move over (e.g games you bought then uninstalled)

[bitter pier]

You would have to contact Nintendo

[waxen kayak]

I see, well ty

is this process hard?

the moveable moveover?

[bitter pier]

I wouldn't call it hard, but you can read through the guide before you start

[waxen kayak]

I see

so nothing has to be done on the original console itself, just on a pc with its sd card

also will the new system be able to recieve the save data from my game cartridges?

[bitter pier]

As long as you have the original consoles movable.sed, essential.exefs, or .bin nand backup

[waxen kayak]

also is there, uh, any other way to launch godmode9

[bitter pier]

You shouldn't need to use the touchscreen, just look at it

Hold start while powering on

[waxen kayak]

the start button...

it doesnt work too...

[bitter pier]

Does select work?

[waxen kayak]

sometimes

i have to press both buttons repeadatley

[bitter pier]

How many .firm files are in /luma/payloads/

[waxen kayak]

original or new consoel?

everything does work finely on the new one

[bitter pier]

Original

[waxen kayak]

let me see

1

and its godmode9

hold on... are all these steps only for the destination console, or is it just section 1?

and section 2 and 3 are for both consoles

[bitter pier]

Wdym

[waxen kayak]

in the tutorial

[bitter pier]

Section I of the guide is for the destination console

But what I'm telling you to do now is for the source console

[waxen kayak]

yeah alr

it has 1 firm in the payloads file

[bitter pier]

Download the .firm and put it in /luma/payloads/ https://github.com/zoogie/b9s_check/releases/tag/v2.0

[waxen kayak]

so whatll this file do?

[bitter pier]

Then attempt to open the luma configuration menu by holding select while powering on. If it isn't working, try taking about the battery and putting it back in, then powering on normally. Then press "boot chainloader" and press "godmode9"

[waxen kayak]

i put it in payloads, yeah?

[bitter pier]

Yes

[bitter pier]

The file itself is irrelevant, but it's for checking your boot9strap version. The reason you're downloading it is because when there is more than one payload the luma configuration menu gives you the option to boot into luma chainloader, which you can then use to open gm9

[waxen kayak]

ok its working, which one do I open, godmode9?

[bitter pier]

Yes

Do the "creating a nand backup" section https://3ds.hacks.guide/godmode9-usage.html

[waxen kayak]

does the date really matter

for some reason my dpad is making everything go down

[bitter pier]

Is it asking you to set the date?

[waxen kayak]

mhm the RTC date

[bitter pier]

If you can, set it. If not, leave it.

[waxen kayak]

ight im in, which sysnand do i select?

[bitter pier]

Have you made the backup?

It should just say SYSNAND backup

[waxen kayak]

ok now i needs select a script

it show sGM9Megascript

WAIT

MY SCREEN FROZE

uh oh.

its not letting me select or do anything

[bitter pier]

What step are you on

[waxen kayak]

uh thanks for your help but uhh.

could we talk about this another day

i appreciate your help

your the only one who did

[bitter pier]

Yeah, ping me when you need me

[waxen kayak]

but ill do this once i recieve the console

im terrified

theres 11 years of data on this 2ds...

[bitter pier]

It would be better to do the nand backup now then leave everything else for another day

Or at least just copy essential.exefs to the sd card

[waxen kayak]

@bitter pier sorry for disturbing, ya, hehe

apparently, you can use the d-pad and the a button when logging into the NNID!

guess I was freaking out over nothing...

however

I only have one sd card

and I backed up my old systems data on my pc

I used it to mod my other system.

Also did the NAND backup on my old system.

Made sure the other system was logged out of an NNID, did a factory reset and did the thing with gm9.
