Due to seedminer being the current exploit method, it is easier to perform a System Transfer before setting up custom firmware on the target console. Dumping the source console's movable.sed before performing the transfer means that seedminer can be bypassed entirely on the target console after.

If the target console does already has CFW, follow this guide instead.

What You Need

  • The latest release of GodMode9 (the GodMode9 .zip file)

Instructions

Section I - Prep Work

  • For the source console only, perform the following steps:
    1. Power off your device
    2. Insert your SD card into your computer
    3. Copy GodMode9.firm from the GodMode9 .zip to the /luma/payloads/ folder on your SD card
    4. Copy the gm9 folder from the GodMode9 .zip to the root of your SD card
    5. Reinsert your SD card into your device

Section II - NAND Backup and movable.sed

  1. Press and hold Start, and while holding Start, power on your device. This will launch GodMode9
  2. Press Home to bring up the action menu
  3. Select "Scripts..."
  4. Select "GM9Megascript"
  5. Select "Dump Options"
  6. Select "System File Dump Options"
  7. Select "Dump movable.sed"
  8. Press A to confirm
  9. Press A to continue
  10. Press B twice to return to the main menu
  11. Select "Backup Options"
  12. Select "SysNAND Backup"
  13. Press A to confirm
    • This process will take some time
    • If you get an error, make sure that you have at least 1.3GB of free space on your SD card
  14. Press A to continue
  15. Press B to return to the main menu
  16. Select "Exit"
  17. Press A to relock write permissions if prompted
  18. Press and hold R, then press Start to power off your device
  19. Insert your SD card into your computer
  20. Copy <date>_<serialnumber>_sysnand_00.bin, <date>_<serialnumber>_sysnand_00.bin.sha, and <serialnumber>_movable_00.sed> from /gm9/out to a safe place on your computer, then delete the .bin and .bin.sha files from the SD card
  21. Reinsert your SD card into your device

Section III - System Transfer

  1. Perform the system transfer as usual.
    • It is recommended to use "PC-Based Transfer" if possible, especially if transferring from an Old 3DS to a New 3DS. The "Wireless Transfer" option is very slow (taking up to 2 hours to transfer 1GB depending on conditions - an Old 3DS to New 3DS will always be on the slower end)

After the setup

You will want to use faketik to restore homebrew applications that disappear after the transfer. You should do this after "Finalizing Setup".
