acekard 2.1 NOT saving. think its from the bad batch

My acekard 2.1 arrived today, however it is not saving files using the AKAIO 1.5.1 or 1.6 loaders or the official 4.21 loader from acekard. It hangs on creating certain save files. and from what Ive read on the internet this seems to be indicative of one of the cards from the bad batch from earlier this year. I would like to return my card for a replacement or a refund.

Seeing as how you are out of stock. I would like to get a full refund, and order an Acekard 2i somewhere else to minimize the chance of this problem.
Please send me my RMA ticket so i can send this card back to you.

Acekard is working on a new version of the firmware to fix the problem. We do have them in stock, but they all have the same problem. We are waiting for the new firmware to test it. We will not sell them until we have them working.

You can wait for few days for the new version or you can return it for refund. Please let us know what you would like to do.

Your package was received in our office yesterday March 16. USPS does not offer real time tracking. Your package may have been scanned in our local post office on the 15th, but it did not come to our office till the day after. You may ask your local post office confirming this detail of their tracking system. We are a very busy and cannot process everything that comes into our office immediately.

We did not knowingly send you a defective item. We were told Acekard 2 is fine and was awaiting a new firmware fix. Please do not jump to conclusions.

We cannot refund you if you do not close your claim. If you wish for a refund, you must close the claim and we can issue the refund.

how did r4 get a vote, it one of the wrost out there

Mostly noobs, BUT the R4 was the 1st of the modern Slot-1 only carts. Now they're not updated offically, no SDHC, and doesn't have fancy features, but so what. My old R4 does what it was made for, PLAY GAMES! Its worked with all but a few of the newest ones. Its not bad just old.

But this poll is about the best flashcartwhat people own, and lots of people have the newer AceKard and can't wait more than a day for AP fixes.

Obvious winner will be Ak2i due to AKAIO

Idunno' about that, people in general have the "what I have is better than what you have, because it's what I have" mentality.

I'm sorta' excited to see the results of this. X3

I have had quite a few cards: DSTT, R4, AceKard, CycloDS (didn't own but extended use as a friend let me test out), Edge and an M3.

And yes I am aware that's a lot but since I got them all very cheap I was happy to test some, then just on sell.

In any case I can say without a doubt that the AK2i is defs the best, even without AKAIO. I reckon the Cyclo was fine but unnecessarily priced and the DSTT is fantabulous if you really want to get the cheapest cart available.

The other cart I would mention is the EZ 3-in-1 as it is easily the best option for GBA emu + rumble (which for some reason I love and is probs the only reason I play Metroid Pinball).

I voted for AK2i. It's what I have, it works almost completely fine (some issues here and there with homebrew stuff, I really should switch to AKAIO >.>), but other than that worth the money... ~50 euro for AK2i + 16GB microSD :_)
