Dumb question, but how does one update luma for this, precisely? I'm assuming LumaUpdater is out, and we have to update it manually?

LumaUpdater doesn't have nightlies (instant builds) anymore: no big deal, just download the new and latest boot.firm manually and overwrite the one(s*) you're currently using

* if you also care for SD-less boot and/or have followed recent versions of the guide to the letter, you have a copy of Luma in the root of the SD, and another in the root of ctrnand

Hi guys. My N3DS is on FW 11.7. I read on here that Luma has been fixed for 11.8? Also, what about NTR? I read that NTR is broken. I use BootNTR for Cheat Plugins. Should I stay on 11.7 for time being? Thoughts and help appreciated :)

Don't update to 11.8 if you want freehax cfw
Smea did the responsible disclosure thing to Nintendo with his 4 exploits, and they were all patched with 11.8

He still plans on releasing them so don't despair. And don't update.

i mean, its not like you're going to see very many 11.8 fw new consoles, so who cares if smea got some money for these exploits.

I don't know how you interpreted that as me passing judgement, I just posted news that I thought was important (and surprising).

I feel completely neutral about this from a moral standpoint.

It sucks being visual because I have a hard time reading instructions without any screen shots of showing how to do this. I just won't update until I can update with Luma and then be able to up[date the system without any issues.

You will need to use the latest luma3ds nightly due to this update breaking luma3ds just replace the boot.firm on the root of your sd card
CakesFW seems to work fine.


Will going to the Luma app and update replace this file or does it have to be done manually?

Can you say what the name of the file is?

Will it say Luma on it or bootfirm?

Got it, will do, I think that was visual enough for me to understand. I will just look for the file.

I assume the current file I have will also say bootfirm?
