Im new to this site, still learning the ropes so if I mess up somehow, please tell me! :P

Im using r4igold rts 3ds as it says on the card, the website is www.r4ids.cn.

I don't know if this is the official site or not, but I've been trying to get Pokemon White 2 to run on it, but to no avail.

I've tried to use another menu loader thing, but it turns an error message saying some ID is invalid or something, I can't recall.

Is there anything I can do to make the game run? I tried to use wood 1.62 and the card just freezes, doesn't load for some reason. I'm not sure how to update it or whatever, I just place files on the SD card, right?

Thanks for your assistance :)

This is the correct kernel for your card:

Wood v1.64 (R4ids.cn)

Just place the files in the root directory of your Micro SD. Make a 'Games' folder and copy the Pokemon White 2 rom to it. If that doesn't work, try obtaining a different rom.

I'm having trouble getting cubic ninja to show up on sky3ds blue button. I've tried multiple dumps all USA with it showing as an EEEP error in diskwriter which seemed normal since I had it come up with pokemon x and that still played but no matter what I do it seems like it won't load this. I'm sure the microsd and cart are correctly inserted because it was showing multiple games the same way I had been doing it before I wiped it and tried putting this on.

This is not the right forum for that flashcard.

Hi again! I recently found an old flashcart that I hope to get up and running for a relative, and I was wondering if you could help me out :P

The website on the card is r4i.cn, and going to this site, it appears that the domain has expired..

Do you by chance know what firmware this card would've ran? Moonshell or whatever? You seem like you'd know more about it :P

Try this: https://www.linfoxdomain.com/nintendo/ds/dl.php/r4i.cn_v1.54.zip
Run it on a DS lite first

Does there any other custom kernels for www.r4isdhc.hk/ 2015 sliver card?
I think RGF' Multi cart menu supports that.

Thanks for your help again! That was the correct firmware, and it ran, I just think the cart is getting a bit old as it refuses to read sometimes :P, I have another question for you, and I promise this will be the last! :P

How do I change the gameart for it? Right now, my working flashcart displays as a japanese konami game, is there any way to edit this on the 3ds? I've disabled signature checks, etc, is it possible to change it to say r4 as not to confuse my family when they use it?

you'd be surprised with how many damn times I get asked "Why do you have a japanese game lol thats so wacky xD"

Thanks again for all your help, really appreciate it! :)

I've used a good variety of Flashcart's, and I know how most of them work. So I'm here today to help people with any problems when using Flashcart's. I will also help out people if they don't understand how to add cheats to their specific Flashcart's, and also how to setup the Kernel / YSMenu. I'm not very smart when it comes to Slot 2 Card's, but I'll do my best.

Hopefully I can help you all in the replies.
I live in Canada and am wanting to play ds roms on my 3ds I have a9lh plus luma3ds what is the complete cheapest ds flashcart that I can get in canada all I want is a flashcart that plays most roms nothing extra or special thanks

What is the best cheap flashcard for regular DS gaming on the 3DS? On 10.7? Where is the best place to get them? (Fast delivery, etc.)

Modchipsdirect and dsflashcart.com are recommended often (I have not used them myself). If your 3DS is hacked you can get a regular R4. For a few bucks more you can get an R4i that'll work on any system.

I just got an R4i SDHC Gold Pro (dark grey) and an R4i SDHC Dual Core (white) yesterday - the ones with www.r4isdhc.com on the box/cart. I've set them up to use YSMenu using the modified R4.dat, replying to this thread for future learning. :)

which cart fits the best in a n3ds (non-xl)? I tried the supercard ds one and it's pretty difficult to insert and remove.

You can get the kernel for yourcart from http://www.r4ids.cn
It works with the latest version as well although you may want to hack your 3DS first for actual 3DS homebrew + 3DS ROMs

Hi there.
I really need some help and would appreciate any information at all.
I have posted this as a thread but i came across yours and thought you may be able to help.

I am new to all this but have been researching as much as i can over the weekend and from what i can work out is i have to download a kernel for it from the website listed on the sticker of the cart, but when i go to the site and click on any of the download links it redirects you and says the page no longer exists.I have spent the weekend googling and chasing its kernel over the web, (even to pages where its in chinese writing and i have to use google translator to read them!),pasting the names of the downloads i need in the search engine (like Pandora 3DS Ver2.0.0-2J\2.0.0-2E\2.0.0-2U and PAUpdate3D_2_0_0_2x_v300.nds ) but the only thing i could track down after houes of looking is the basic kernel (I believe) but it only contains Some of the files it should have ( a setup guide said it should it should also contain PAUpdate3D_2_0_0_2x_v300.nds which the one i found does not have ).I tried to setup a blank 8gb Scandisk ultra sdhc card by formatting it as recommended and then pasted the files in the kernel to the root of the sdhc with a couple of test games in a game file but when i plug it into the cart and ds it still has the game logo but still goes to the same black screen with no change at all.
I only just got this cart last week on eBay and it came all setup and loaded with 200+ ds games and a heap of nes and gameboy games which it was able to play.It worked fine for a day then while i had my ds lite charging i decided to take the sdhc card out and plug it into a sd card adapter and see if i could add some more ds roms to it but it seemed to get jammed not quiete all the way in in the crappy adapter and then i had a hard time getting it out again without actually plugging it in to the computer.when i put it back into the ds and went to play a game the main games logo appears but when you press A or touch it both the screens go completely black and just freezes like that.

the carts details are as follows
it is listed as a pandora-3ds or pandora 3ds R4 flashcart
the cart is white or slightly grey and the sticker has PANDORA3DSi v4.0 with mario flying off a blue 3ds and at the bottom of it is the website www.pandora-ds.com
when you turn the ds on the games logo is asian writing at the top and says konami digital entertainment at the bottom and to the left is a picture of a anime/rpg game girls face with what looks like a red upside down Q above her.In all my hours of searching i have come across peoples blogs on the same game logo but with different r4 cards.I have tried installing other kernels since that people recommended for other cards with the same logo like WOOD and R4 GOLD but they still do nothing when plugged in, just the games logo then the blank screens.
is it possible to corrupt the r4 card by trying other kernels?
it still appears to load the logo ok every time so i assume its te setup of the sdhc card.
do you have to initialize the kernel or kickstart the firmware once its on there or should it simply be download the kernels main files to the root menu of your sdhc then plug in and play?

sorry for the length and amount of questions but any help would be great.
