how do i update games if i cant access the eshop? like if my game cartrige has an update?or cia file?
You should be able to access E-Shop if you're on emunand 10.3. Are you getting an error?

If you're on 10.3, yeah, you should be able to update games fine through the eShop, but otherwise you'll need to use CIA files to update your games.

I thought I had read somewhere that N3DS only works with emuNAND at 9.5 and you can't go higher than that (to 10.3). I can't find any documentation on it, though.

Can someone confirm? If 9.5 is the highest, why? (I can understand a technical answer.) Also, I'm guessing if that's the case, there is no eShop access on N3DS emuNAND and you need to use CIAs for all emuNAND title updates.

Yes, 9.5 is the highest due to Nintendo changing the encryption in later updates.

Because you're using a N3DS, you'll have to do some extra work before you can spoof your firmware so that you can have E-Shop access.

What you could have done was:
1. Back up Emunand (there should be an emunand.bin or something) and the Emunand folder in "Nintendo 3DS" (you can tell by how big it is, depending on if you installed any titles on it)
2. Go to Emunand and go into system settings and hit format System Memory.
3. Set up your "system" again and then sign into NNID from the settings menu
4. Then you can inject the Emunand backup and place the emunand folder back

And then you're done.

I know you're new to the 3ds hacking scene, but please use the search function.

Going to use this method https://gbatemp.net/threads/is-this-method-safe-to-update-sysnand-to-9-2.399729/ and the latest release of this https://github.com/profi200/sysUpdater/releases to update sysnand to 9.2, anything I should know? It says not to use with any spoofing which is confusing...
You absolutely NEED to boot into Devmode (NOT rxMode) for that tutorial to work properly. I believe Pasta works as well. The thing is, if you use ANYTHING but those two (Pasta or Devmode), you'll brick your system.
I don't think rxTools 2.6 supports Devmode so I recommend updating to 3.0 before using sysupdater.

It's probably been asked before, but is there any way that I can install .3ds files onto my 3DS? I have rxTools as a CFW, and I wanted to install a game, but I can only find it as a .3ds. If I can find a way to convert it to .cia, that would be great.

No you can't install .3ds games onto emunand, but there are ways of converting them into CIAs.

No it works on 9.5 I'm pretty sure. RxTools patches those checks (I think, don't quote me on that) so it should be fine.

Awesome! Yeah I guess it does have that because it plays fine. If I could bug you with one more thing... how do I link my NNID to my emunand?
