Homebrew safe to update to 11.3?

htluga · Mar 29, 2017

Hello, just succesfully installed the cfw on my 2ds. My question is now can i upgrade to 11.3 without losing/damaging my cfw and continue using the freeshop and playing my cia games?

As long as the github for your CFW says that you can run 11.3 then it should be safe.
What cfw are you using? If you followed the 3ds.guide then you should be good to go

htluga · Mar 29, 2017

yeah i used the 3ds.guide so i can upgrade to 11.3 and still installing cias?

yes but no Homebrew-Launcher

htluga · Mar 29, 2017

no homebrew-launcher? not even the cia version? on my other 3ds i could use hblauncher even on 11.3 but it was the .3dsx file

Since you followed 3ds.guide, that means you're running Luma3DS CFW. You can update to any future system version since you have Luma3DS. To quote 3ds.guide: "Updates while using A9LH + Luma (what you have) are safe, stop asking about it."

The Homebrew Launcher works fine! Smea released *hax 2.9 alpha awhile back.

What.. you're very very late dude, download the updated cia from FBI or git, and then download the newest payload on Smea's site or delete it from your SD and let the HBL auto download it.

OP, please make sure to be on latest Luma to avoid "zomg update, 3ds brick" it doesn't actually brick don't worry, you just should always be on the latest build <3

You mean the hourly? I don't use hourlies. I stay on the stable builds.

htluga · Mar 29, 2017

just one last question so before i do the system update i should update luma? but tere are 2 options the hourlies or the normal type which should i use?

htluga · Mar 29, 2017

and are u guys logged in with ur nintendo account?

Giodude · Mar 29, 2017

Update luma to the latest stable build and update your console. Also the Nintendo account wasn't a thing on 3ds, bit of you mean your nnid, you're fine.

Shikkichu · Mar 29, 2017

Either update is fine tbh, hourly fixes some slowdowns this new update causes, which I feel will be pushed when release of 6.7 stable arrives.
Update either from the git or updater for Luma

Then normal 3DS System Update as you would.

Lmao i did the systeme update but now i can't access to lumaupdater anymore

Then you didn't updated Luma first although many users told you to do that.

htluga · Mar 29, 2017

i actually did... well i think i did. i went to lumapdater, and installed the latest normal buildt 1.4.2...

Shikkichu · Mar 29, 2017

https://github.com/AuroraWright/Luma3DS/releases/tag/v6.6
If you mean the cia, uninstall it, reinstall it? Idk where you got the numbers 1.4.2 from..

The guide specifically says you can update. Pay attention.

If you are using Luma CFW you will be safe.
