I've got a 3ds (first 6 months of NA distribution, so O3ds) running firmware version 10.3.0-28U. I wanted to downgrade to 9.2.
I've installed on my sd card
It loaded the homebrew page. I then installed menuhax manager (first I had to open the theme store on the 3ds home menu). I rebooted while holding L, allowing menuhax to load the homebrew page. I installed sysupdater, and pressed downgrade. After a few minutes, the system rebooted. I successfully managed to downgrade.
While this guide may not be necessary, I noticed a lot of threads here, on reddit, and other sites that said you would be permanently unable to exploit the browser if you saw the update nag message, even once.
Consider this a guide and evidence that such a statement is untrue. Once downgraded, you don't need to worry about having exploits patched!
