Rasberry Replacement
-
Hello everyone. I hope my question is not too much silly. I want to replace my rpi3 with an rpi4 which I will buy soon. My question is if I must reinstall everything to the new one or just by inserting the old pi’s SD card to the new one can do the job? Or is there another way to have everything as working now from rpi3 to rpi 4? Thank you in advance.

@Anthony
You need new install from OS. -
@Anthony boot the card, it should work just fine if you’ve built it in the last 3 years (since pi 4 came out)
same card will work untouched Pi0w, Pi3, Pi4, Pi0w2
-
@sdetweil I start building it at June. So it is only 4 months old. You think it will be just fine with the old SD and the OS it is already installed on it? If so it will be savior for me. I want to avoid all modules reinstall and especialy creating new project on google for Google Assistant.
-
@Anthony yes, the OS is current
-
@Anthony don’t have to create new Google project, just use the credentials file u already have
backup, backup, backup
use my script. saves custom.css, config.js and the url of all installed modules
https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror-backup-restoresaves and can push that to gjthub
and restore from there and resetup all the modules… -
@sdetweil Then you are a savior too. Thank you so much. I will do it ASAP.

UPDATE!
Hello everyone. I would like to tell you that I just migrate from Rasberry pi 3B+ to Rasberry pi 4B 4GB. I just want to tell you that It worked perfectly by just instering the SD from the old pi. The only thing I had to do Is to configure the audio output bacause I use hdmi to transfer audio. Everything else worked as a charm. OS, MM, GA, leds everything. I made this update in case someone else is thinking if it is possible. Well IT IS!!! -
