< 3DS:System Transfer

 | This page is a work in progress. |
 | This article may be outdated due to a new Nintendo 3DS system firmware release. It was written for system version 11.15.0-47, but 11.17.0-50 is the latest. New update may have changed the need for seedminer. |
 | TODO: Check that this actually makes sense? I might have missed some important steps... |
Due to seedminer being the current exploit method, it is easier to perform a System Transfer first, 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.

.zipfile)

Section IV - System Transfer
| TODO: Steps if someone could not use "PC-Based Transfer" |
- Perform the system transfer as usual
- If this is from an Old 3DS to a New 3DS, it is best to use "PC-Based Transfer", unless it is impossible to do. The "Wireless Transfer" option is very slow (taking about 2 hours to transfer 1GB)

The source console is finished. The following pages can be performed on the target console only. |
