Managed to snag a bnib n3ds in a store locally. Unfortuately it came with 11.1. Also unfortuately the 2 2ds i have here are 11.1 and 11.2. So how far are we from a dowm grade or cfw that doesnt require a spair 2ds/3ds on cfw. Not looking to hard mod either. I can wait it out no problem just would like a general idea.

Also any chances of the 11.2 dg coming out at same time? This way I can upgrade and get at least one game from the eshop while the wait continues.

Thanks for the info guys.

You're good. We've got easy entrypoint, a k11, and just today, an arm9 sploit on the latest firmware. Just wait for it to be cleaned up and released.

If we knew when, then we'd know what it was, and we'd have it already.
Not likely to have a non-dsiware solution anytime soon. Nothing in the 3c33 presentation suggested this could be overcome. Just buy a 2DS, mod it, downgrade one of the consoles, and resell it. You could easily make a profit since the 2DS will be hacked.

I believe this is to do with the safe firm not having 11.x title checks and the exploit to get access to safe-firm is k11. And once in the safe-firm you have arm9 access to the system or at least can downgrade titles as the downgrade block isn't there.

In short:
Safehax.3dsx by TiniVi: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1OGj4xwAe9_SXlBc3BZQzNOWDA/view?usp=sharing
(source code: https://github.com/TiniVi/safehax/commit/cad5ebf03e8a765142ea3a01c8a265b7de480102, update ctrulib if you get build error due to a missing "svcGetHandleInfo")

Download Decrypt9WIP, get the .bin version and rename it arm9.bin, put it in the root of the SD
Run safehax.3dsx* and wait the usual hour for slowhax
Follow the guide starting at https://3ds.guide/2.1.0-ctrtransfer, don't skip the backup when prompted!

At your own risk, of course :)
* You know how to add a 3dsx to the homebrew launcher, if you don't and can't find it out no offense but you should wait for a proper guide

@zoogie @Justinde75 if you guys are taking about fasthax that's only arm11 and would require owning one of the four primary DSiWare exploit games?

Not exactly.

Firmlaunchhax is the arm9 exploit people use in 9.2, but you need K11 access to patch some K11 function calls (I believe this is for the hooks)
https://yifan.lu/2015/01/17/reversing-gateway-ultra-stage-3-owning-arm9-kernel/

(Incase people didn't know)
There is another version of the firmware called SAFE_MODE_FIRM that is used by the system updater where firmlaunchhax has not been patched. We also need K11 access to boot into this mode (I assume). So the idea is too boot into this firmware run Firmlaunchhax then downgrade using the K9 access we now have to 2.1 and install A9LH.
