If you are are between versions 11.0.0 and 11.2.0, you MUST have [downgraded your NFIRM](nfirm-downgrade) to successfully complete this part.
{: .notice--warning}
{% capture notice-2 %}
**All** variations of sysUpdater, *not* just sysDowngrader, have a *very* small chance of causing a "soft brick" once the downgrade is complete and the device reboots. This will cause the system to boot directly to the Nintendo error screen instructing users to power off the device.
The reason for this is unknown, but can be prevented by performing a system format *before* downgrading. It seems to happen very often on systems with ambassador status or who have DSiWare installed.
Once this error happens, it can *only* be fixed by using recovery mode (boot holding A + R + L + Up on the D-Pad) to update to the latest system version.
As of the time this is written, the latest version (11.2.0) has completely blocked all software downgrading, and if someone encounters this error they will be locked out of any further downgrading unless they downgrade their NFIRM.
