But how were they able to test it without Homebrew access?

maybe they installed a previous version of home menu on a hardmoded console so 11.0 homebrew launcher exploit would work again(just a guess, its the only thing i can think of).
 
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?
That's still being discussed. You're correct tho, we can Downgrade the NATIVE_FIRM to 10.4 but the question is, can we proceed on downgrading the whole system if hbl is still not compativle with 11.1?

Hi , my 3DS is 11.0, I will not be updated for now, do you think that someone working for downgrade to 11.0 → 9.2 ?

Ah, thanks for the confirmation. I was going to downgrade my friend's console but I guess that'll have to wait.
 
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.

On 11.1 DSiware Downgrade, after you donwgrade the NFIRM to 10.4, you'll have to use the No-Browser version of the guide (as I suspected):
11.1.0: Browserhax has been patched, you MUST have downgraded your firmware already, then use a non-browser entrypoint

If you are using a game for hax because your browser version is incompatible, you will need to enter Homebrew Launcher using it and install menuhax. After installing menuhax, you no longer need the game to complete the rest of the guide.
 
Maybe a specific situation, but anyone running A9lh with luma region changed sysnand know if it's safe to update? I assume it is since it's not much different, but I don't have a hard mod so don't want to test yet.
 
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?

I thought that blue screen BOOTROM had something to do with the ability to read/write the NAND by the hardmod's card reader. As to say there has to be a rudimentary software running to access the NAND by hardmod.

Thinking over it that blue screen might also be just a side effect when the card reader accesses the NAND pins, perhaps simply blocking the system from accessing them.
...I remember such a blue screen before the card reader was even connected. I shortened the wires and then the system worked.
That might harden this assumption. If so, a hardmod could never be blocked by a firmware update - if these are simply flash chips with no extra programmable controller inside that would allow some extra communication versus what a simple card reader offers.

That's great! The question now is what payload to install for the secondary exploits.

Well, you can't update the bootrom with a system update.

You dont need HBL to downgrade using DSI, after you downgrade 11.0 to 10.4 you can acess HBL using oothax entrypoint of 10.4
That makes things 10x better for me. Is it just the standard 10.4.0-29 payload for oothax?
 
The forum is not a crystal ball, so you'll have to wait and see. You could always do a NAND backup of 11.0 if you want to update (That is, if you're using A9LH).
I do not know if I can make a backup of NAND I have that access hbl

OH, oops. Yes, someone's working on a downgrade for 11.0.
Okay, thank you ! :)

The way I see it, BootROM is the same as a PC BIOS. In order to change anything, you have to Flash it directly (or with a very low level tool)
Don't see Ninty doing it, in any way whatsoever.

I'm not a tech savvy person but if you read this, you'll have a better Picture of why I said what I said:
