Hi,

Recently I bought used NEW 3DS and it came on version 11.0. Since I was off the scene for a while, are there any news about downgrading console from that firmware without hardmoding? If not, will it be possible in soon future?

I'm getting tired of seeing these threads...
NO, you can NOT downgrade without a hardmod.
As for when it will be possible to downgrade without a hardmod, could be tomorrow, could be 10 years from now, no one knows.

There are currently two options: One being hardmod.
You can try this yourself if you know what you are doing, but it's rather risky. The good news, New3DS is a lot easier than old 3DS when it comes down to hardmodding it. Bad news, still a high risk of breaking the system if you don't know what you are doing.
Of course, you can also send it out to be hardmodded

The second and most recent option and DSi mode. But it requires a system that already has A9LH installed

Thanks everyone for help, but unfortunately I don't have another device with A9LH, but I could do it.

BTW. about another of these threads, you guys on forum should understand visitors. We aren't here everyday and we do NOT check threads, thats why we came here to ask in first place. Sorry for spamming forum with identical threads.
