Homebrew Clarification Thread - What is going on?

A wild webkit appeared! (Made my day)

 

[perkel]

Old3DS can upgrade their emunand to the latest version

Then it means getting to that arm9 on fw above 9.2 is still juicy target

Imagine if the exploit was released New Years. Boy oh boy lol that would be the best

well the thing is when the kernal hack for 9.2 came out it was already patched this could not be when it comes out

That is why everyone is saying DON'T update.

Search for mathieulh's post about that for more info.

This one?

It depends on what you qualify as "interesting", you get more keys, just not the ones that allow 9.6+ emunand (which you would be interested in). As a reverse engineer, the more keys you have access to, the more content you can look into, the better.

If I understand that correctly, the keys needed to install/boot >9.5 in emunand have not been discovered. Is that right?

He is talking about when the exploit for 9.2 was released it was already patched.

There is another one which is really longer.

Do these new exploits help in discovering the keys needed for 10.3 emunand? Sorry if that's a stupid question but I don't fully understand.

I don't think so but no matter what happens, there will always be a way to get the keys.

I believe that now that kernel will be available to everyone, there will be more people who will try to get emuNAND 9.5+. Anyone remember the HUGE influx of new homebrew that happened when tubehax/ironhax was released?

Not really, the keys for 9.5+ N3DS emuNAND are cleared in bootrom, not even during arm9loader, so... You still can't find the keys.

Curious, how were they found for =< 9.5?

Not sure but if/when they are found this time (unless found by a selfish brat) they will probably be leaked like lastt ime

From 3dbrew:

Originally the New3DS FIRM arm9bin loader only cleared keyslot 0x11 when it gets executed at firmlaunch. This was fixed with 9.5.0-X by completely clearing keyslot 0x11 immediately after the loader finishes using keyslot 0x11.

Thanks for the info

I have a question.

Which would be the easiest method to downgrade?
