Nintendo 3DS firmware update 11.10.0-43 released

UltraSUPRA · May 29, 2019

I think the 3DS is stabler than our house at this point.

CostaRic · May 29, 2019

I just hacked my 3ds and a patch just drops! Just my luck. XD

Atleast people seem to say its safe to update in Luma 9.1

I still hope the "last" update for 3DS re going to be oficial region free so you can use at least carts from any region with no problem (and only get problem by the DL region and stuff) just like switch xD

On the floor can technically be stable. Not in a useful state, perhaps, but it could be stable nonetheless.

Not exactly. In theory it could be patched by updating/patching the MCU firmware to inject extra verification code into the boot process (think DMA injection). Of course that would not only be tricky to do but messing with the MCU firmware has a high risk of causing an unfixable brick even for legitimate systems.

hey hey hey no endgame spoilers

See from what I've read is that it's a hardcoded boot vector in the CPU die itself so if what I had read was true then it would require a new mask as wells as making it impossible for Nintendo to do data recovery off of broken devices as I'm sure like many others that is the intended purpose of the for it being tied so deep in the machine. Plus if the MCU is involved in how the device boots it's not listed on 3Dbrew. Plus knowing what I do about CPU design the MCU being involved int he boot makes very little sense as it would require it to come up before the CPU it interfaces with which would require all the normal boot vectors to be stored in either it's firmware or hardcoded on it's die as ROM some where.

EDIT: Also double checking the design of how the MCU is done that would mean that the slave is booting the main buss master on the i2c buss which makes no sense from a security standpoint as it would open up the hardware to a sniffing attack on the i2c bus during boot up with a simple logic analyzer and oscilloscope and possibly lead to the key store for boot leaking. Granted as the NTRBoot exploit proved the booting is the least secure process of the 3DS like basically any device with a CPU.

If not, it's better to either install CFW first and update later or wait. *hax payloads don't support 11.10.0-43 yet, so even if this firmware seems to be literally nothing™, the usual entrypoints won't work until the payloads get updated (unless you're using a hardmod/ntrboot).

According to some posts on Reddit, the *hax payloads from 11.7-11.9 still work except for the EUR region, for some reason.

Strangely enough, the EUR region is where *hax payloads are still the most useful, since there's no free EUR-region DSiware title for use with fredtool. Until there's a fix, installing CFW on a EUR-region 3DS will require ntrboot or buying EA Sudoku.

STOP
STOP
IT'S TOO STABLE ALREADY, THIS SHIIHS WILL BREAK THE STABILITY LIMITS

Thardus · May 29, 2019

I updated from the latest and it works.

comput3rus3r · May 29, 2019

does ntrboot selector work on this update?

Sarcastically recalling what seriously happened. SpotPass notifications for 9.6, YouTube, Tomodachi Life & Kirby. It's happened a couple of times before.

wiiLike2Hacks · May 31, 2019

Saw the update prompt, said "screw it" and updated, seems fine.

*Note* It's been about two weeks since I've updated. Everything still running smooth, played plenty of MK7 online. Will update if anything goes the other way.

UPDATE: CFW users can update safely. *hax payloads for older firmware versions are reported to be working on 11.10.0 for all regions except EUR. While they haven't been officially updated yet, an unofficial payload for EUR N3DS consoles can be found here (made by deadphoenix).

Does that mean, if I update n3ds 11.9 -> 11.10, then my hb launcher(using rosalina) will not work, untill i update payload?

No, Homebrew Launcher via Rosalina will work fine as is.

From that thread:

It was no the update, it was a '?' title I deleted from game list.

If there was a systematic problem related to the installation of this update, there would be a lot more people screaming about it by now.

From this version, i'm receiving another update from it. Is it safe? I have currently Luma v9.1 on my New 3DS XL.

You mean from 11.10? Did you alter any of the system apps on the NAND? That usually triggers an update notification.

no_panic · Jun 4, 2019

I tried the deadphoenix payload but it's not working (at least for me, EUR N2DSXL 11.10)
