Any way to stop it pestering me to update? I'm worried my nephew might turn on my 3DS and start the update.
Also I'm on 4.3, any benefit or reason to update to 4.5?

Go to system settings and reformat. You lose eshop games though. (until you go online to redownload them - which updates the system).Any way to stop it pestering me to update? I'm worried my nephew might turn on my 3DS and start the update.

I figured, so there's no way to connect to the internet (Even in MT-Mode) without it auto-downloading the update ?
:c
You can always use emunand to do a 'fake update'. Problem with that is, if you start from a cold boot or exit out of system settings (and maybe other triggers) the 3ds will run off real nand and be in danger of updating again. That's always a big issue with young people so its a bad risk.I figured, so there's no way to connect to the internet (Even in MT-Mode) without it auto-downloading the update ?

Yeap, current "workaround" is to use emunand and never ever turn off your 3DS or let it run out of battery.
Has anyone successfully done a hardware downgrade back to 4.5 using a backed up NAND?You can always use emunand to do a 'fake update'.

Before you do anything else (aka right now), make sure you make a nand backup just in case just such an accidental update occurs. (it will require a hard mod to restore 4.5, but we'll cross that bridge if we get to it - hopefully never)
Turn on parental controls. Then you'll need the pin to accept the update.
No, that's only for 4.0 and lower. Anything above 4.1 no longer needs the pin. People keep saying this but it's wrong.Has anyone successfully done a hardware downgrade back to 4.5 using a backed up NAND?
Really?
You might be able to, but chances are it'll break the eShop as well.There isn't any access rule that we can add to domestic routers so it denies access to update servers?

...
Yup!
I've done several times.
What's the process? Is there a video of anyone doing the downgrade?
Does anyone have the server name?You might be able to, but chances are it'll break the eShop as well.
