You must be one thick bastard the r4 cartridge is just a converter to make your micro sd fit and i doubt your micro sd is broke i got the correct files on mine i could email then to you but nah do your rip
DUDE.... u have to use a DS lite or DS original to update the firmware to work on 1.4 DSis.... unfortunetly u have to use a DS lite or DS because the DSi wont recognize it untill after the update. So ones you update the firmware it will work on the DSi.
@crazyperson559 DSmonkey.com they garuantee their cards will work and if they dont they will replace it for free. great place to buy flash cards from :)
@Kgoshdarnet You don't need the CD. Most or All suppliers no longer include the CD. Firmware changes so often, they want you to just download it from their site.
question guys, my r4i works on my ds lite but when i tried changing the software like to the newest one like 1.18 kernel something , and it doesnt work, why is it ?
@DarkSkysify What kind of R4i are you using? R4i Ultra? R4i-SDHC? R4iSDHC? R4iGold? You may have loaded the wrong software from the wrong site. It should say on the card or box.
@kenji4861 good question , i have the R4i ultra, its says in the bottom ultra, so please tell me what software can i put in it besides the 1.54 which is kind a outdated
Yeah...looks like you didn't update the card. On top of that, the DSi bricked the card BECAUSE you didn't update it! Sucks to be you, do your research next time!
@minutestomidnight090 the issue is not with the microsd card having kernel installed or not. The DSi is not recognizing the r4i card. If yours works, it works. This was just my experience.
Im guessing you had a bad batch or maybe did something wrong... idk I have a friend who owns a game shop/dart shop its kinda like a kids place he rents out the DS in shop for playing and he uses R4 im not quite sure what version it is but it works out pretty good.
Cool I'm going to get a dsi soon and I have a ds lite all ready going to sell my previous r4
So I can get the red box one. Before I do though can I ask you this question if I update my dsi, I here that the cartridge for r4 won't work. In the previous r4s you just had to update from the site can you do this on dsi because I heard if you update you have to wait and go buy another r4i with the filmware you have on your Dsi thanks great vid by the way .
Uh....no. You need to flash the firmware which you can do on the M3i Zero, Supercard DSOnei and the Acekard 2i. Don't make crap up if you don't know what you're talking about. The R4 and it's diffferent variants is a crap, outdated card. Why purchase this when you can purchase a new card that works better and future-proofed for the next DSi firmware.
Rage. R4 freak. You cannot update it to support the 1.4 firmware. If you could, why would the R4 team make another R4i for the 1.4 firmware. *insert dramatic drumroll here* Do your research, kid. Check the R4i's site. Hopefully, you will then get a grasp of the situation.
I know the problem, your DSi was version 1.4, which R4i fixed back in May, and your video is from around April, it shall work now, Acekard is probably better, but a bit more confusing to install.
People help me!My R4I Worked perfectley till now!I think the new update i downloaded it screwed the thing up.Can anyone help me fix it please reply thank you :)
I know your problem it can be solved you need to buy a new micro sd card and when you download the firmware download the the second newest firmware the newer firmware will stuff up your micro sd when you go on moonshell also the r4i gold works on the newest dsi firmware no other dsi flash card will
I thought this review was good riiiight up until the end. Sorry man but you dont even know how to use an R4. You put it in BEFORE turning the DS on. It never boots into the DS menu, you must have the software on the microSD card before it will load. The R4i works perfectly fine. I would strongly recommend putting up another review or taking this one down.
lolol. You put the r4i in when the ds was on lamo. Your suppose to turn the ds off then put the r4i in and then power the ds on. It works like any real ds game would. I though someone like you would know that kind of stuff.
me got this r4i and i tried downloading a game for it. i dragged it onto the r4i and the game didnt work. weird. maybe bcoz i dragged it on straight away
You didn't download the firmware from what I see. You also used a 2 GB micro SD card, the r4i that you got only supports 4-32 GB micro SD cards. It says it on the back of the box! That is why it didn't work.
Yo i got a r4 and i love it. But im selling to my sister so im gonna buy myself a new r4i. But i only gotta ds lite atm (upgrading to dsi soon). So will my new r4i work on a ds lite?
