# Perform the system transfer as usual. If at all possible, choose a "PC-Based Transfer" | |||
#* If you cannot follow a PC-Based Transfer and must instead use a Wireless Transfer, be aware that with this method, homebrew software, cartridge dumps, and any other data only obtainable with CFW will not be transferred over.<br>If you choose a Wireless Transfer anyway, you will need to take extra steps to move over the lost data.'''Select "Do not delete" during the transfer to preserve all data on the source system, or else you will have to reobtain all lost data again by hand.''' | |||

=== Section IV - Homebrew File Recovery === | |||
This section will have you manually copy all homebrew files onto the '''target console''', as wireless transfers actively refuse them. | |||
# On the '''target console''', note all apps that should have appeared but are missing | |||
# Insert the '''source console's''' SD card into your PC, and copy the homebrew data off of it and onto your PC | |||
#*Everything except the <code>Nintendo 3DS</code> and <code>DCIM</code> folders is considered homebrew data | |||
# Take out the '''source console's''' SD card but leave it out of its console, and insert the '''target console's''' SD card into your PC | |||
# Move all of the files you copied off of the '''source console's''' SD card onto the '''target console's''' SD card | |||
# Reinsert the '''target console's''' SD card into its console | |||
# Redo [[3dsguide:finalizing-setup|Finalizing Setup]] on the '''target console'''. This will ensure you have backups available in case the next section goes wrong | |||
=== Section V - Homebrew App Recovery === | |||
{{Section WIP|notes=Provide more detailed instructions on how to use ninfs.}} | |||
This section will restore all games/savedata that the wireless transfer refused to copy. | |||
# Insert the '''source console's''' SD card into your PC and mount its <code>Nintendo 3DS</code> folder using [[ninfs]] | |||
# Copy all games/savedata that were not transferred onto the '''target console''' onto somewhere on your PC | |||
# Unmount the '''source console's''' <code>Nintendo 3DS</code> folder and reinsert its SD card into its console, then insert the '''target console's''' SD card into your PC | |||
# Mount the '''target console's''' <code>Nintendo 3DS</code> folder in ninfs, and add all obtained games/savedata into the existing contents | |||
# Unmount the <code>Nintendo 3DS</code> folder, but keep the '''target console's''' SD card inserted - [[3DS:Rebuild Title Database|rebuild title.db]] to force all the new apps to appear | |||
# Reinsert the '''target console's''' SD card into its console | |||
