for people that saw my post a few pages back or the topic for BootNTR support in 11.1, it Requires the latest luma3ds Dev branch build w/ the svcbackdoor patches AND a 11.0 NFIRM firmware.bin in /luma

Just wanted to verify hardmod still working under 11.1 by myself. Tests on a 2DS-EUR.
I "downgraded" with an old 10.3 native (=no hacks) hardmod image I had in backup, then let the system upgrade to 11.1.
After checking 11.1 was "native" (no luma, no CIA-icons) I downloaded it with my hardmod (I like archiving this stuff) then wrote a 11.0 A9LH-sysNAND.bin back to the EEPROM.
The 2DS came up with the luma splash screen and CIAs showing up again. I was able to upgrade again to 11.1 - this time with A9LH intact.
So I think chances are good to "downgrade" a 11.1 image's NATIVE_FIRM to 10.4 (see Plailect's tutorial).
Or in other words: the 11.1 upgrade did not inhibit the blue BOOTROM-screen when a hardmod is plugged in - or shorter: hardmod still working (on my 2DS).

But without being able to start homebrew you cannot go further if you want to do an A9LH installation.

Sweet!
I'm out of my office until next sunday so I couldn't test... in cases like this, I usually test by myself... thanks for the confirmation!
[EDIT]
While I was writing this, @Plailect updated the hardmod downgrade page and it is confirmed that it Works with 11.1:

[/EDIT]

What made you think that a firmware update would block your access to hardmod (Reading NAND chip)?
If a FW update was able to block access to the NAND chip (via hardmod), don't you think it would also block A9LH access?

Why the DEV branch of Luma? to use boot NTR with 11.1? I thought Luma reapplied SVC backdoor no matter the branch...

I already have a 11.0 native firm (dumped with decrypt9WIP)...

they just added in a SVC access Patch in the dev branch pretty much restoring these exploits things like NTR and such used, and in theory for emulators that needed these would get dynarec back./
No, not quite. Normal luma patches svcBackDoor, also.

Normal branch doesn't load firmware.bin, dev branch does.

We would've downgraded the firm but how can we access sysdowngrader/plaisysupdater if hbl entry is 'broken' on 11.1? (Sorry for noob question)

I may be way wrong but after you downgrade the NFIRM to 10.4, won't it be possible to use the payload of it on CART *Haxs (Oot, V, CN, whatever)?

If not, I'm seeing the whole procedure in a very twisted way.

So we still use the 11.0 payload for the secondary exploits? Because that's what I've been using on DSiWare downgrades before this new update came.

I've read through this thread but I just want to make sure. I can DSIware downgrade but I can't proceed with Plailect's guide because I can't launch homebrew. Is that correct?

    Do you have a surge protector or an UPS?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea but to play the next gen games, you must have those games on internal, or buy the official ssd expansion cards, which are expensive
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @MysticStarlight, dunno what each one of those are
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @MysticStarlight, my PS3 was already modded when my dad bought it for me and my brother
  • MysticStarlight @ MysticStarlight:
    A surge protector is a device that protects your electronics from fluctuations. I recommend having your console plugged into one of those
  • MysticStarlight @ MysticStarlight:
    An UPS is even better because it has an internal battery that keeps your system on even if the power goes out, but it's much more expensive obviously
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @MysticStarlight, oh i recall seeing one in some in the houses of some relatives, including my dad's apartment
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @MysticStarlight, although whatever device we plug into them stops getting power anyways lol
  • MysticStarlight @ MysticStarlight:
    that's weird

    @MysticStarlight, and oh i was talking about ups

    On the series s/x you can use a external HD but any next gen games must be on your internal ssd, or you can buy a ssd expansion card, but pricey. Any xbone, 360, or og Xbox games can be played from external tho.
