Homebrew [PSA] do not downgrade yet!

[vb_encryption_vb]

Wow I'm very hyped for this, so much going on in so little time.
Anyways, is there an ETA for a stable release of this exploit or JustPingo's KTM?
I'm not downgrading my 10.3 New 3DS until there will be because I don't have an extra 200$ to waste.

No, in the mean time do a hardmod and get a back up of your nand in it's current state in case a brick does happen.


**I hope anyone makes a nand back up before anything, even when proper tested tools are released.

I'm 15 and don't know how to solder or hardmod so it's exclusively softmods for me.

Wait it out then, at least until the tools that are currently being used are a bit more stable. Last thing you want is a brick that's unrecoverable.

Okay, so I've successfully managed to downgrade twice now, both occasions were from 10.3 to 9.2. I'm playing a very dangerous game in life!

But what's the point if you can't run CFW or any other exploit? You're basically on a 10.3 that says "9.2" on the settings app.

Probably so called "legit" CIA's.

Legit CIA installation wasn't working on 10.3, so I thought about trying to downgrade again. But... well, click on my avatar to find out what happened. :/

Guessing you didn't have a NAND backup either

I haven't read much into any of these new bricks yet, so I'm not sure how bad they are...can you get into recovery and sys update that way, or is it bricked beyond that?

EDIT: Hold L+R+A+Up on the D-Pad before powering up, wait a few seconds and let go...

No. That's what you get for being desperate and being a show-off all day...
I'll just buy a new out-of-the-box 3DS XL.

Bricked beyond. It just constantly makes two clicks every 3 seconds as if it's in pain.

Sorry that happened... However I'd just like to take a moment to say this: every. Single. Console. In. A. Store. Is. Exploitable.

Wait! Try booting into safe mode

Ouch, sorry for that. At least you can afford a new one.
Here in Brazil, a new O3DSXL costs minimum of $350.

Lucky I have a spare 2DS!

(On PROPER 9.2.0)

Seriously try booting into safemode and updating back to 10.3

I just tried safe mode combo. It's still just a black screen with occasional flick sounds. :/

This is from Myria

Woo, I guessed right! ;p

Ouch. Now we know for sure that these bricks aren't so easily fixable, I guess.

 

[BejittoSSJ5]

I wasn't going to downgrade anyways btw, that's why I asked if there was an ETA for a stable release.
