I'm confused here...
If the arm9loader is unencrypted, why can't we just write the older version? Unless you're talking about a hardware revision? Or a new version of arm9loader that would re-encrypt the secret sector so that we can't swap keys?
arm9loader is bundled with FIRM, so we have to change all of FIRM, not just arm9loader (since each section is hashed, and the hashes are signed). Also, not to mention, if they did re-encrypt the secret sector, we'd need to obtain our OTP by DGing to 2.1 and then re-encrypting with aes-ecb to use older versions of FIRM (since the arm9loader there would be expecting ECB, and end up decrypting garbage keys from NAND), that would mean going back to 9.2 wouldn't be possible and we'd need a whole new arm9 exploit to do the process of downgrading to 2.1.I'm confused here...

Great work, this will trim down my a9lh installation proccess from 45mins to just 15mins on a v9.2 already N3DS.

don't forget when you had to build your own installers, or have others build them for you (
Are we playing this game?
I did arm9loaderhax before any public releases with a custom key by manually hex editing/encrypting NAND.

If we're really playing this game, I found the OTPless vuln :^)
Hands down.
I see AuroraWright has added support for the New 3DS OTP-less installation on her SafeA9LHInstaller. Well, that's a go signal for me to use the latest Beta release of UnsafeA9LHInstaller.
I know you really don't want to but, WAIT. It's still called UnsafeA9LHInstaller for a reason.Hands down.

I don't own an New 3DS but good job on finding this.
If you use 3DSafe, 1 less security method for you then

I think it's a bit too over-cautious to say don't use this without hardmod. Everyone said this when 9.2 downgrade came out and the chance that you Hardbrick your 3ds after formatting (!) is less than 1%. So far there are no known bricks with this. Happy a9lh masterrace everyone (back to 02/16 :3)
Don't you think the risk in using this is just as risky as downgrading a N3DS to v2.1? In what I can see, I think this is much safer than doing ctrtransfer to v2.1. There's risk during the transfer proccess, there's risk after the downgrade has been made. Heck, it's even written in BOLD on Plailect's guide. I don't think a person is stupid enough to brick by pressing only one button. Then again, I still haven't tried this yet so I might be that stupid one to brick with a press of a button. haha
You are comparing Monster trucks with lemons there. I suggest to wait. No hardmod, no hypebrick. Just wait.

I believe it's called "risky" since not a lot of people haven't tested this yet. Unlike the one on the guide, which has been tested by a lot users. They are just being cautious to avoid newbies getting bricked if somewhat they fucked up somewhere.
This would be great since most of the time, I'm dealing with N3DS units. I'd love to try this for real, but unfortunately I don't have a unit with permanent hardmod. I just do hardmods temporarily
I know it doesn't require hardmod at all. But if you failed and bricked your unit (or something like that) while doing the process, since it's still called "Unsafe", you have to do a hardmod to restore your NAND dump.

If it's needed to keep you healthy it shouldn't cost you $90k. The fact that it does is an enormous problem -

And if the concern is that "well we can't trust the government to intervene for this because the government can't do anything right and wastes tons of money" then holy shit push for a better government. I'm certainly trying to. Don't throw your hands up and go "we've tried nothing and we're all out of ideas"

@K3Nv2 that's crazily expensive. how long will that take to pay off?
Although diet is largely education, people don't need to go to university to learn what's healthy and what's not,
it's the whole country, big corporations and advertising that is to blame for leading most of the population to believe that poptarts and froot loops are healthy to feed a child -

i would think the population knows better but with food deserts and abject poverty, sometimes a poptart gonna have to do. -

As someone who went through the grade school system in the US some time within the past 30 or so years, not nearly enough is done to promote and educate on how to eat healthy in a way that is feasible to do on a regular basis and also affordable. Eating healthy is, comparatively, fucking expensive. So is eating unhealthy, but in many cases eating unhealthy is more affordable than eating healthy+1

@Sicklyboy I agree, but also it's about self control and realistic thinking. We wouldn't feed a dog soda, so why feed it to ourselves? Eating unhealthy food because it's cheap is one thing, but I'm sure you know people who drink soda routinely when they should be drinking water which is free.
I get it can feel mean to say "no treat sweet beverage for you anymore" but for many people it's just in their way of life. -
