KTM aka Kernel Time Machine. An app(?) that's noob friendly that helps you check the fimware package before allowing you to downgrade.

every 3ds is bascially hackable now that we can downgrade...this is only scary if u screw up the proccess and are forced to go to latest firmware

not if you have a gamecard below 10.3

 

[Quantumcat]

Yes, because if you softbrick your only option is safe mode, which will update you to the latest firmware. As far as I know you can't use a game cartridge's update from safe mode.

 

[Ryu Kenshin]

not if you have a gamecard below 10.3

When you cannot login to home menu due to a softbrick, a gamecard is just a decoration

Either they used a wrong update pack, or a unsafe version of sysupdater. Or they have the themehax error and they just have to take off the sd card to boot correctly...
Formating the 3ds before attempting to downgrade also greatly increase the success chances.

Nope. Both confirmed using the latest 'safe' version of SysUpdater, both confirmed using the correct checksum-verified update pack, both confirmed that taking the SD card out doesn't work so no Menuhax glitch. Plus a third person reported the pseudo-hardbrick in the thread. TuxSH has suggested a possible code corruption, so in other words it's SysUpdater's fault. This program is not completely safe.

Can we update emunand to this 10.4 when it comes out?

 

[Osakasan]

Can we update emunand to this 10.4 when it comes out?

I guess we should wait. I have the exact same question.

 

[Hayleia]

Well you can alsways backup your emuNAND, update, see if it works, and if it doesn't you restore your backup.

 

[hacksn5s4]

we don't know if 10.40 will patch it the spider exploit did not get patched till two updates after and homebrew did not get patched till 10.20 but that was only browser hax and menuhax ironhax still worked

Dose this mean I can have yaoi in Tomodachi Life!!

 

[missinsummer]

ok, everyone if you dont know wtf is going on or do not want to risk anything

install HBL first, then just wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the update is gonna block the installation of HBL at most ( probably fix themehax), so if you have hbl installed, and themehax working.

just wait for a much batter sysupdater to be released.

 

[TDotFlame]

is it ok to update in emunand after they make a new update?

 

[Astoria]

is it ok to update in emunand after they make a new update?

We don't know and never will. You will always need to wait for someone to confirm emuNAND still works with new updates (or back it up and test it yourself).

Eh... this may seem like an unnecessary bump, but I just wanted to remind people.
MAINTENANCE WILL BE STARTING TONIGHT. So its highly recommended that you guys set up the Youtubehax DNS in order to protect yourselves from a possible update TONIGHT that may patch all the exploits that are out in the wild right now!


Times for the Maintenance if anyone's curious:

Can Nintendo update your 3ds without your consent?

 

[fr3quency]

So we can safely update emuNAND when the new version hits? I mean, can they introduce an update that when we update our emuNAND it renders it unusable? I know it's silly, but is it possible?

I'd wait till it drops.

Back your emuNAND up and test it, if you're asking whether or not the update could prevent you to boot into emuNAND even after restoring a backup, the answer is no.
