3DS 11.4 Firmware Update Available

0hnqi7q.png

Just today, Nintendo 3DS firmware 11.4.0-37 has been released. I saw no other posts on this so far, so I am posting it. Here is what I found so far has been either temporarily or permanently broken/patched.

BootNTR Selector: Working with latest version (2.7.3)

UDSploit: Patched

Soundhax: Patched (Finally Nintendo... Lmao)

Safehax: Doesn't work without UDSploit, so therefore broken.

11.4.0-37 fixes the slowdown bug for some games like OOT3D that 11.3.0-36 has introduced. Confirmed by @Feffe

Please let me know if anything else got patched. Yes, of course, if you have A9LH+Luma3DS, you can safely update.

Okay, so I've finally updated to 11.4 and got the new boot NTR CFW selector to go with it; now I'm in the Homebrew Launcher and trying to load up Rutile Ruby through hans. Everything was fine before the update but after the update I get stuck on a green screen when I try to boot it up. Any ideas on what went wrong.
I'm having this issue too :(

@Blue Sun Hans needs to be updated to work with 11.4. Smea needs to update it. Download the starter kit from smea site when it's ready.

The starter kit was updated and I downloaded it. I can load Homebrew launcher just fine, it's just that any apps I try to access go immediately to green screen. I know that a lot of save managers need to be updated, but I'm not sure why Hans won't work at all.

Probably needs more update and stability.
Why don't you try the new Luma3DS LayeredFS support?
It should make things easier. Seems like 7.0.1 fixes some issues that existed in 7.0. It should take up less space than RomFS/HANS. Also make updating mods a lot easier.

Because I was an idiot and didn't even know what CFW or Luma was when I updated. I thought they would never patch soundhax, so I thought I was safe. Now I'm screwed...

Mostly because Nintendo never usually updates those sort of apps. Li9kie I said, I was an idiot.
Never take anything for granted. No exploit will go permanently untouched until the hardware is completely abandoned. Updates from Nintendo means it's not abandoned. Though I'm hardly one to talk. Forgot to make a backup and updated. Found out after NTR Streaming broke. Now I have to cross my fingers and pray, or back up my saves and go back to my older backup. 11.2 is what I think it was. Important thing is we learn from our mistakes!

Why can't they just abandon it early like the WiiU and leave us alone?

Because the 3DS is actually worth buying and has games that are actually FUN.
Hence, you are here asking this here, and not in a WiiU forum. Making my point for me.
If you disagree, are you lost? You seem to be in the wrong section of the internet. Shall I fetch you an adult? :creep:

SO where are we at with 11.4?

MY personal 3ds is at 11.2.0.35 - a9hl and Luma Installed. Luma Updated today.
Should I update to 11.4?

My Kids kids 3ds is on 11.3 (cause he uses online stuff - he has not updated to 11.4 yet
He also has a9hl and Luma (updated today as well)
Safe for him to go to 11.4?
He does use Homebrew launcher and NTR to stream to the TV and PC for his Twitch.

It's safe to update. NTR now works with 11.4, but I don't thing streaming for the N3DS works on 11.4, but I know it works on 11.3

If the guy said his kid uses NTR to stream, then no, it is NOT safe to update to 11.4. Video streaming is broken on 11.4 and no word on if it's even possible to restore said broken feature.

It's safe to update, calm down. But make a backup first if you wish to downgrade in the future.
Don't sound like someone pissed in your Cheerios.

You literally told someone who says they use video streaming that it's safe to update to 11.4. I just don't understand your thought process there.

thanks for the Reply,,,

Kind of sucks my browser no longer works and is asking for an update to work.. which means 11.4.

Curious though. Could we not update to 11.4 then use GODMODE9 to downgrade back to 11.0.0.33 which is the firmware I backed up NANDMIN.bin when I originally modded my 3ds?

Jesus Christ child. I said it is safe, I told him NTR works and I said what future of NTR doesn't work so he has the choice to update or not.
I'm sorry you eat a piss full of Cheerios for breakfast

Sure. You could also make a backup right now and restore to it at a later point in time.

NTR works, except for the one and only use of it that he mentioned. How about giving solid advice instead of half arsing it?

thanks for your replys too. Just slightly confused though about NTR in your answer?
SO on 11.4 NTR works or does not work? Can I connect to my PC to stream? The Kid Likes to play online and has a bunch of friends watch him. I think it's kind of cool, he is learning public speaking as he narrates what he is doing while other watch. He is pretty young.. So even if it don't work it will not kill him to wait till it is fixed. I just enjoy the Interaction he has on his stream with people. Fun to watch him mature that way.

    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
