As I already said, there's no way to verify that, because developer units always show "Ver. 0.0.0-0", no matter the firmware version installed.


Only to developers basically.
I'm not one of them, but I've got a couple of contacts who are.
If you get CFW, you should be able to make Luma show the system version string properly (maybe).

Didn't you read the previous posts? She cannot use the guide to install CFW since she doesn't know what system version the n2DSXL is at, and for the time being, it even might be a new system version that is yet to be released.

Yes, Nintendo 3DS Sound is there, sandwiched between Nintendo 3DS Camera, and Mii Studio.
Hey! I have an idea...

What happens if you try running soundhax.m4a from the sound app or UDsploit from the HBL (after using OOthax or something to get to HBL)?

Not that any of this will do anything or work, but I'm curious if either would work, and would tell us around what FW version the 2DS is running.

Of course, asking Nintendo (via a developer?) what firmware it's on is out of the question, I assume?
The op already explained that the dev firm version of new2ds doesn't have a corresponding retail version out right now.
(current non new2ds) 0.25.5 = 11.4.0-37
(current new2ds) 0.25.18 = 11.?.0-? (it must be higher than 11.4 but less than 12.0)

I would really like to know what is the quality of the buttons, since the 2DS had horrible buttons.

Also, is the screen suffering from scanlines as it was on the 3DS?

I will need Homebrew access first, any suggoes?
@YamiHoshi.nl Should talk with @Normmatt to see if the https://gbatemp.net/threads/3ds-unbricked-with-magnet-ds-flashcard.472585/ trick works with the new2dsXL, at last the magnet trick, that would make me consider even faster to buy a new console, my launch3DS has seen better times :rofl2::rofl2::rofl2:
I spoke to Normmatt before, to dump the SM3DL prototype, I'm not sure if he has Discord?
I stopped using Skype full-time, since Microsoft took it over.
But my New 2DS LL didn't brick so far, though.

Whether buttons feel good or not, is up to the user.
I just compared 2DS buttons to New 2DS LL buttons, and they're both nice to me, except that the New 2DS LL buttons are more clicky, while the 2DS buttons aren't.
As for the scanlines, might be your 3DS that broke, I never had this issue with any model.

Seems to be already possible: https://gbatemp.net/threads/3ds-unbricked-with-magnet-ds-flashcard.472585/page-42#post-7377576
I'll suggest just to wait, the hax will come eventually.
And i've already preordered my new2dsXL xD
