Prejie Posted February 16, 2021 Posted February 16, 2021 The save got corrupted. Try restoring an unedited backup of your save.
paf Posted February 16, 2021 Author Posted February 16, 2021 is there any way I could access my save?IMy game can be read by my 3ds.but I cannot restore my save.when I try do this in checkpoint the list of backps of pokemon ultra sun doesn't appear.In FBI I got the msg in attchment and in JKSM I got this msg:this file cannot be opened when I tried erasing the save.thanks for any help Spoiler
theSLAYER Posted February 16, 2021 Posted February 16, 2021 Reinstall Checkpoint. If the game still cannot be recognized, use JKSM. As long as the save is in the cart, it is able to be dumped.
paf Posted February 16, 2021 Author Posted February 16, 2021 I could not acess the save from my cartridge. 1-the game is in slot. 2-I can see it in home screen; the error I get when I start it is the one in img from the first post in this topic; 3-when I open checkpoint I just find the US that is in my SD card but the CARTRIDGE; 4-when I got to extdata I can see my US CARTRIDGE; 5-when I use JKSM i got the error: this file cannot be opened when I tried to erase or restore my save from CARTRIDGE; here are picture of them any ohter way of restoring my save or recover my CARTDRIGE? Spoiler
theSLAYER Posted February 16, 2021 Posted February 16, 2021 @paf I'm getting the feeling that if you were to try to play the game on the cart, the game will tell you the save is corrupted, and not allow you to proceed. Try playing the game, tell me what it says. Also, do you have a backed up save?
paf Posted February 16, 2021 Author Posted February 16, 2021 yes I have a lot of backed up saves.when I play the game these are the pictures. Spoiler
theSLAYER Posted February 16, 2021 Posted February 16, 2021 how bout trying to play your cart on a non-CFW device? Also, is your Luma updated?
paf Posted February 16, 2021 Author Posted February 16, 2021 about luma and starting the game in a non-CFW device Spoiler

I’m assuming the second image being trying to boot the cart in non CFW device. If so, looks like the cart is effed. Perhaps clean the contacts in the cart and try one more time.

I can't say for sure that PKSM messed up your save. If the issue was only a save being corrupt, you should be able to reset the save via loading the game. However, it appears that even vanilla devices have issues loading the cart (based on the picture you showed us). This suggests the cart, or the ROM data, is dead/impacted to some extent.. Hard to determine who that culprit is, but there's a chance that PKSM was innocent and was trying to load your save while your cart/data died. At the very least, it appears the ROM header is fine, since the logo shows up on the 3DS, so that is good news. Tho, it remains that a vanilla 3DS cannot even boot your cart. At this stage, I don't know what you can do. Try scouring the net for similar issues, and see if they got it resolved. (Also, if your cart cannot be loaded properly on a vanilla 3DS, then I doubt the save [if it even exists] can be extracted by a CFW 3DS) In the mean time, I'll leave this thread open, in case anyone have any crucial information to chip in.
