Can't seem to find an answer to this specific question no matter how much I used my google-fu. So I thought to see if I can ask the experts on this question. I was able to install OoThax while my 3DS is updared to 10.3.*etc. firmware. I can of course use SVTD to access my Cartridge Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate and back up it's files, edit the edit, inject it back in, and so on.

A friend of mine owns only the Digital copy and has no way to install any of the hax for Homebrew. Is it possible for me to somehow access her game files through my own homebrew if she sent me her game's storage folders from her SD card and put it onto mine? And if so will I able to back up/dump the encrypted save files and inject them back in and still be playable on her 3DS once sent back and replaced?

I don't think this will work for the same reason you can't play games from another SD card due to signatures. (Please not that those are theories only since I'm not familiar with all that stuff)

However, there should be an easier way : if you own the physical copy of OoT3D, just install the payload that fits with her 3DS' firmware version, access homebrew launcher and install oot3dhax directly on her digital copy.

I see, I did read about Digital games and having unique headers. I didnt know exactly how homebrew or SVDT behaved with these sorts of things so I was just wondering if it would bypass headers when trying to access the gamedata through the homebrew. The problem with trying to install things into her system is that she isn't a local friend, and we're not exactly desperate enough to literally ship her 3DS over here or my Powersaves over there just for this, hehe.

A friend of mine is currently lending me his 3DS so I can check why it lags so much. Another friend made the transition between him and me, but I don't know how I'll ship it back, though :')

Anyway, if you had an OoT3D cartridge you could just ship the cartridge since it's small. I guess that's the best solution right now :/

Would it work if I use the save of Pokémon Shuffle on my other 3DS (not yet CFW, but it soon will be) update it and inject it back on my other one? I can't update it on my 9.8 :/ (and it's in-game update btw)
Otherwise I'll just continue on my small 3DS, but I prefer bigger screen :P

Eh, I'll see if I can figure out a way to test this until we get a hardcore, definite yes or no from anyone who knows this thing inside-out lol.

Confirmed: It will NOT work, it will block the game if version is lower (forced to update game, not a big deal of course if you're able to connect to NNID server), not sure about lower version towards newer one, but I guess that will be accepted?
Don't mind much being on a smaller screen now, just a small disadvantage xP

Except the game loads pretty slow, although the game gets bigger and bigger hehe.... maybe CFW is the cause? (only loading time is slightly increased, all other stuff are working properly)
