Hacking Why sit on 11.2 once you're CFW'd?

[Sonic Angel Knight]

You asked if it had to do with the screen. I just answered.

Why would security update effect game performance?

My next question would have been if is old or new 3ds specific, if not then i dunno, i'll shut my mouth.

The bug happens with both old and new systems.

As for the people that say that the nightly fixes the lag. Are you guys sure? I saw someone still complain that the lag had only been reduced, but was still in fact there.

Or did a newer nightly builds also correct that?

First i heard of this lag issue, does it have anything to do with the TN/IPS screen? Well i mean no new features, no reason to update! DONE DEAL! NIntendo never baits anyone to updating their system anyway so is stalemate.

No. It specifically has to do with the patch for fasthax affecting some timer system calls.

Read what I just posted.

There's literally no benefits to upgrading to 11.3. 11.3 added nothing new and was only made to break things. Even with a CFW, there's no reason to upgrade to it. Not to mention CFWs allow for online play without updating, just saying.

Because

Number of risks: 0
Fuc*s given about online play: 0

It's only reduced. I don't know why people claim its completely fixed? None the less, it's still awesome that Tux was able to reduce lag in the first place!!!

if you aren't on 11.2 already it's kinda hard to update to it now without creating a frankenfirm (cart update)

stupid question. if it's nintendo's fasthax patch that causes the lag, can't luma just revert it?

 

[vinstage]

Personal preference, and many people have different usages. IF you wish to play online you can still do so in 11.2, just more thinking to it, whereas 11.3 you can simply play online by launching the games multiplayer function. So, it's not to do with going online or updates because both of those are still available to users, it's down to different variables which have been explained and stated, to put it shortly.

 

[Zaphod77]

bottom line is the 11.3 performance hit is the only real reason to stay on 11.2 if you have luma.

 

[slaphappygamer]

i guess if you don't play Pokémon sun/moon of lozOOT you'd never notice the lag.

 

[Zaphod77]

pokemon sun/moon battle lag is caused mainly by being on o3ds. as i understand it

 

[Gizametalman]

Once Nintendo leaves the 3DS alone, I won't sit in 11.2.
I'm tired to update Luma and Homebrew Launcher every time Nintendo patches it.

Besides, I do not play on-line, but I like to have some way to play the latest games for the platform.
Besides, I'd like to create homebrew games for 3DS, so having a hacked device to test them is important to me.

 

[aos10]

the only reason why CFW users to stay on 11.2 is gateway

or people just too lazy to update.

 

[Scarlet]

I'm basically on 11.2 for Gateway cheats. It's not as if 11.3 gave us any incentive to upgrade, I doubt it'll really make my 3DS more stable.

I am waiting on my "new" 3ds to come in the mail. It is on a version of firmware in the 10's. Once the CFW is loaded via following the 3ds.guide, is there a way you can upgrade your firmware to 11.2 manually?

yes, u can download the update with NUS. it will be a collection of cia files. the app to install them is safe updater or something to that effect. it will install, then verify. make sure u get the cia's for old or new 3ds depending on which console u have since they r different.

 

[Zaphod77]

you SURE this still works? i trie to ue a pc app to fetch older firmware and it didn't work.

No. It doesn't work. You'll need to find an update pack on that iso site. If one is even on there. I don't know.

 

[godreborn]

my bad. I wasn't aware that it didn't work anymore. it's been so long since I used it to update to 9.2.
