Nintendo has pushed out a new firmware update for the Nintendo 3DS family of systems, 11.9.0-42. It's currently not known exactly what this update brings to the table, but as always, you might want to wait to see what scene developers say before updating your 3DS, if you want to keep using homebrew. The last update, 11.8.0.41, was released in July 2018, and managed to break multiple homebrew applications upon its initial release, so it's recommended to stay on your current firmware for the time being. As always, the patch notes are for the sake of stability.

  • Further improvements to overall system stability and other minor adjustments have been made to enhance the user experience

Iv'e already checked and it's safe to update but i would make a nand update just incase but so far everything still works
 
Thanks @Galaxy☆Guy
Ich prefer Not to buy any additional stuff but thank you anyway!!

Thanks @Ryccardo !
So could you explain how i can downgrade to 11.8?
Or since a lot of users Report everything to Work Just fine isn't it possible to homebrew even with the New 11.9?
I found a videoguide to bomebrew with the 11.8 firmware that seemed legit but since the 11.9 i don't quite want to try it out until confirmation came that it does or doesn't Work.
Thank you!


Yeah, you install Luma which patches out the downgrade checks then you download an 11.8 firmware pack and use sysupdater to downgrade. Of course if you have Luma there is no point in downgrading unless you are trying to make a hybrid "frankenfirmware" emunand for Gateway.
 
Hi, When I run LUMAUPDATER it says it updates successfully but the next I boot it I see the old LUMA version still with it saying I have a backup on the new version? Is it safe for me to update past 11.7?

A friend told me in Order to Play Roms on a New 3ds XL a homebrew is necessary.
