that was the only reason I was hesitant about updating, now I can update with peace of mind 
I got Homebrew running on my 11.0 N3DS. I am and now using v*hax. I used my 10.3 O3DS to install the N3DS payload/exploit for SuperMysteryChunkhax. Then I used that to install v*hax on my N3DS. Everything works fine so far. I was also able to restore my Pokemon SMD save, so I didn't really lose anything except for my vvvvvv save, which is fine since I had very little progress.
If you buy one brand new then it will be guaranteed hackable but if it is preowned and is on 11.0 then you would need a hardmod.
It will be a brand new one, i thought the brand new ones always has the newest updates?
What if the firmware he has is 7.2 and the game needs 9.2 and the 3DS wants to upgrade to 11.0?

Brand new ones have been manufactured months ago and been sitting in transit and store shelves probably for months since the update released!
Yeah, @Twanvl , if you buy a brand new one from the store now, it will probably come on something like 10.3, which is hackable right out of the box. From there you can downgrade and setup emuNAND to install CIAs.
Just wanted to say thanks for this thread. I know that, since I'm using A9LH, I should probably be fine come what may but it's good to have confirmation that all's well before I hit the mighty "Update now" button.
oops im dumb

Thanks a lot!
Now I only need to know about my other inquiry. So thanks in advance for anyone kinda enough to answer <3
It is still possible for you to get A9LH (& Luma3DS) if you're still on 10.7 or lower; just read the guide and be careful.
Thanks a bunch! I'm not anywhere near good enough to call myself a techie, so yeah I'm still kinda scared to try it, but I don't want to regret not getting a9lh. Haha
I understand. As you long as you read the guide many times through and follow it to the letter, you should be fine.
Don't take the plunge until you're comfortable with what you're doing.
I know that this probably isn't possible, but it was an idea I had about ninjhax and having it fixed.
Since smealum has fixed the memory randomization (https://twitter.com/smealum/status/731905392570028032), which would theoretically allow us to get into ninjhax, but we can't download the payload normally since CN has lost network access (talk about rude), couldn't we get into HBL via ninjhax once, then make an installer, like the oot3dhax one, to permanently install the payload?
Since I'm not a techie or coder at all and have little to no experience with successful ideas, I'm aware that this probably won't work, but thought that I might throw this idea out there. If anyone would like to tell me why/why it won't work, that'd be nice to know, or thoughts on the idea.
However, then what would we call ninjhax? A frankenploit™?

I have now read the guide and it is very interesting.
But one question is still unclear for me:
I have a new N3DS XL which I bought over a year ago. It is at version 9.0.0-20U.
Should I update this to 9.2 before I install A9LH & Luma3DS?
Or is 9.0.0 OK?
I don't know what the difference between 9.0.0 and 9.2.0 is.
The guide is not entirely clear about this.
It says there (on the page Get Started):
But on the page Part 2 (Downgrading) it says:
But I am not on 9.2.0-20; I am on 9.0.0-20.
Probably this doesn't matter.
But I just want to ask the experts to be sure.
I could follow the update process to 9.2.0 on page 9.2.0 Update.
But the guide says on this page:
And points to the Get Started page.
Maybe an update from 9.0.0 to 9.2.0 following this page doesn't work?
So, it looks like 9.0.0 can be used to install all the stuff and everywhere the guide talks about 9.2.0 it means 9.0.0, 9.1.0 or 9.2.0?
Right?
Thanks.
What I was thinking was since it seems that the memory randomization has been completed (but not yet released) and the QR is being worked on in order to download the payload, if we couldn't get the QR to work to download the payload, but to still access it, we could get into the HBL and have an app that could install the payload like oot3dhax. We could do this all on 11.0, if we can get a QR with the memory fix. Does this make sense?
--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------
Here's how it'd possibly work.
UPDATE TO 11.0 >> ENTER CUBIC NINJA >> SCAN 11.0 QR (with no download feature) >> GO INTO HBL >> DOWNLOAD APP TO INSTALL PAYLOAD >> INSTALL PAYLOAD >> DO A HAPPY DANCE (optional)
