Why does Poke Transport and Bank only recognize/connect to some of my games and not all
Transporter and bank only work on legitimate games, for unofficial VC, and NDS games you'll have to transfer them to a 3DS game through PKSM https://github.com/FlagBrew/PKSM

Transferring emulator saves to Virtual Console?
You can't use Poke Transporter even if you have Crystal Clear on VC. It won't recognize the game. If you really want to transfer your Pokemon and have a different Pokemon game on the system you can use a tool like PKSM and recreate your Pokemon.

Does PowerSaves work on ds cartridges?
In my experience, the best way to cheat in Pokemon is using save editors rather than codes. For hacked 3DS, PKSM is the way to go. For hacked DSi, Pokemon Chest. Both are about the same thing: a combination of Pokemon Bank without needing to connect to the internet, moving pokes between generations, and a savegame editor that can create and edit Pokemon as well as some other stuff in your save. PKSM is the better app since it supports generations 1-7 on 3DS, but Chest runs on a DSi and handles generations 3-5.

Does action replay still work
You can find out how to install CFW here and get PKSM here. The guide will also have you install Checkpoint which can backup 3DS and DS save files. Cartridges will always show up in the top left corner in Checkpoint though you sometimes have to wait like 20 seconds before they appear for some reason. The save files it backs up go in /3ds/Checkpoint on your SD. If you want to use PkHex to export your Pokemon to files so you can trade them with someone via a chat app, backup, extract what you want to trade, get other ones in exchange, and import them. Then put the save file back and restore it with Checkpoint.

Fbi/homebrew won’t let me install game
If you want up to 40 Nintendo DS game icons "installed" on your 3DS Home Menu, you need to use another homebrew app called NDS Forwarder Generator. You can find and download it from the Universal Updater homebrew app.

I'm confused about updating my luma/home brew for 3DS. I'm on version 11.0. Do I need to delete all of my previous mod files and mod my whole 3DS again to get version 12.0.1?
I can't speak to why Universal-Updater doesn't show the latest version of Luma3DS available for download and installation, but you can update Luma3DS to the latest version yourself manually quite easily as explained in my first reply. Have no worries, you didn't mess anything up.

HELP!!!
Basically, you'll want to download the .Cia and .3dsx files for FBI from the FBI GitHub. Open a default installed app that you never use (the AR one for me). Then press L+Dpad down+select to open the Rosalina menu. In the Rosalina menu select "Miscellaneous options" then "Switch the hb. title to the current app". Next close the Rosalina menu, close and reopen the app. It will open as the homebrew launcher. At this point you can open the FBI.3dsx from the homebrew launcher and use it to install the FBI.cia. You'll be up and running and be able to install whatever you need at this point. I recommend the Universal-Updater to open up your options.

Neofetch on Nintendo consoles
Assuming the 3DS is already modded you can install Universal Updater (Homebrew appstore) and download it. It puts all the files where they need to be.

Can't find Anemone title or others on home screen. I could use some help.
Was anemone ever on your homescreen? If it's installed it should be listed in "Titles" on the main menu of FBI. If you can't find it anywhere you can download it from universal dB on your 3ds, if you don't have universal dB either go here and you can either remote install it by scanning the qr code through FBI, or you can download the .cia file put it in your cia folder of your SD then install it from there through FBI

Easy way to download Pokemon platinum on a homebrew 3ds??
The easiest way to get TM++ is using Universal-Updater. Universal-Updater is available as either cia or 3dsx. The cia will install to your home menu using FBI. The 3dsx version you just copy to /3ds on your SD card, don't need to install, and run through Homebrew Launcher. You only need one or the other, and you should choose based on whether you prefer a direct home menu icon or a tidy home menu. Twilight Menu++ is only available as a cia, but the reason I suggest using Universal-Updater to get it is because it has a bunch of other files it needs that you'd have to copy to the right locations if you install it manually. Forwarders are always cias you install through FBI.
