I have some time that i havent used my 3ds. Im on 11.4 cfw version and 7.04 luma version. Ive seen that a lot of people have switched from a9lh to b9s. Whats the difference between these two? Should i update it or its not necessary?
just to add to this b9s also boots even faster than a9lhluma no longer supports a9lh so once a 3ds update breaks luma 7.0.5 you will be forced to update
No.
There really isnt any need to.
Yea, it is technically a faster entrypoint. However, it's so miniscule no one in hell will have a chance of noticing it. Also, everyone's saying Luma in A9LH format could be patched in an update, but since when has anyone agreed that a9lh could be patched. Even if there is an update, there's a marvelous invention called declining the update. Also, B9S is a bit more tedious to update and work with etc in my opinion.
Apologies if i was incorrect on anything, been out of the 3DS loop since March.

A9LH can't be patched out, that's not the issue. The issue is is that the last two CFW teams have basically dropped support for A9LH (Luma officially dropped support and ReiNAND will be dropping support.) This means anyone still using A9LH will not see CFW updates and thus any future issues caused by our of date patches will not be fixed. The most recent example being that Ever Oasis have a newer encryption that prevents the older CFWs from booting it.No.

It's not that A9LH is broken or needs to be fixed, it that it's both lost support from Luma3DS and loosing support from everything else.Don't fix what ain't broke.
Don't fix what ain't broke.
