Sigh... gave up, going to sell my 11.4 NEW 3DS XL (maybe include my Sky3ds+)... and grabed another one on 11.2 so I can play with a CFW (it was in nicer shape anyway)... They are both the "NEW" models in Red...

Yes, I've never gotten any kind of warning saying to update, I wait to update until it is confirmed that there is no problem with the new update and also make sure nothing is broken in the new release.

There is a method to downgrade 11.4 now, just requires an NTR card with a hacked firm on it to run Boot9Strap, then you can downgrade or just install Boot9Strap and be modded ;)

Edit: It needs to be implemented, but it will be possible.
@Swiftloke You may want to update OP! :3

Hardmod and DSiWareHax works on 11.4 too.

...I think Luma blocks updates from downloading now anyway so you won't even be bothered by that :-)

Really? I still get update nags on Luma/A9LH. Blue light and all... pls make it stop.

Only other way I have found to block FW updates is DNS blocking or Router blocking.
