Thx Pelago!
I'm gonna wrap up here then and close everything...
Will try to flash the same dump and cross fingers hoping everything end up well... If I'm ok, I'll update to the latest sys upd via internet, do a backup and downgrade again.
Thx!
ok!
After the 6 dumps, I turned on the console to see it was ok and it was... phew!
Extracting a diff dump after gives me a different MD5 than the ones I extracted earlier. Since the day changed, I guess that after I boot the console, something changed in the NAND... that's the only logical thing I can think of.
Am I right?
PS: two dumps now gives me the same MD5, but different MD5 than the old dumps... So I guess I'm still fine
Hey guys,
Sorry if I'm being too sticky to this, but I gotta admit: I loved this mod!
I just found out something really interesting.
With the very same wiring, I get different errorcodes based on "how" I do the connection to the PC. I'll explain.
I use a 8 inch long shielded USB cable with 4 terminals and a female connection soldered to the console. At the other end of the cable I use a MicroSD to SD adapter. To onnect the SD part to my console I use a cheap-a$$ multi SD read stuff, china made.
If I connect everything up (cable to console, cable SD to card reader and the card reader to my PC USB) and then I turn on the 3DS, I get the errorcode 00000003. Also the read speed is 2.5MB/s at most.
If I connect the cable to the console and to the card reader, turn on the console, I get the errorcode 00000400. Then I plug the card reader to my console and the speed is also 2.5Mb/s at most
If I only connect the cable to the console and turn it on, I get the errorcode 00000020. Then I plug the rest up, but this time the speed is much faster. It's 5.3MB/s
All of the NAND dumps are the same (MD5 matches). I tested them all and they all work on my console, but indeed the read/write speed count when you're dumping 3 times to be on the safe side.
Cheers!
