Pretty much sum it up, thank you.xakota said:WiiBricker said:KingVamp said:Reread what you post and you understand that doesn't make sense.WiiBricker said:Wait a minute... R4i works on a device that includes 3DS-Mode, DSi-Mode and DS-Mode by a simple firmware update and normal DS flashcarts like the CycloDS (without "i") cannot even work on a DSi, that includes DSi-Mode and DS-Mode?
Are you kidding me? Could this possibly be mean that DSi carts would not have been neccessary at all to work on a DSi and that the flashcart manufacturers could actually make DS carts work on a DSi with a simple firmware update?
I smell money.
Dsi reflashable (acekard2i,dstwo,r4icarts) all work on the dsi and ds.
And all (possible/in theory) will work on 3DS because it basely the same security in ds mode.
While ds carts still can not work.
No, you simply dont understand how DSi carts work. DSi features a new "security" for booting in DS mode that was bypassed via new flash kits and stolen Nintendo code. Why cant be this stolen code be flashed via a simple firmware update on DS carts?
3DS featrues again a new "security" that prevented all flash kits from being booted. And all what did take to bypass that security is not a new cart, but a freakin firmware update. So tell me why that is not possible with DS only carts? I dare you.
You're wrong, it's not a firmware update, it's a bootstrap update, an update to the card itself. DS only carts do not have updateable bootstraps. DSi carts do. Mystery solved.
and 3DS ds mode security is basely the same as the ds mode security as the DSi that why updating dsi carts works.
3DS mode is another, much bigger, ball game.
