supercrad ds two can do it
r4 can not
you are in DS mode when using flash cards NOT 3DS/DSI mode
supercrad ds two has a extra CpU so it can do more

The only GBA emulator for slot-1 cards (that isn't the DSTwo) is this
http://gbatemp.net/threads/gba-emulator-for-ds-i-dsi-entry.281715/
It's only ok.
There is a flashcard called the Supecard DSTwo, which has an on-board CPU and ram, so it can emulate GBA games, but the emulator only works on the DSTwo.
The DS actually isn't that strong a system for emulation actually and when running a flashcard on either a 3DS and DSi, you are still in DS-Mode and stuck with the DS limitations.
Smartphones have way more power behind them from more CPU speed to more ram and thus can actually emulate systems like the GBA and SNES better than the DS ever could.

Refuse to believe whatever you want, but all you're doing is proving your ignorance. The DS does not have enough RAM to even come close to proper GBA emulation, and the processor that it runs in DS mode is not going to clock over 66mhz.
Your phone is likely at least 600mhz or more. So, of course your phone can run things that DS-mode homebrew cannot.
Either buy a DSTwo, or just suck it up and deal with it. Your disbelief isn't going to magically add more processor power to your 3DS, nor will it magically enable hardware that is incapable of emulating the GBA to do so.

Newsflash: your cell phone is many times more powerful than the DS.
Flash carts run in DS mode. Even if you stick them in a 3DS, they only run with the power of the original 2004-model DS.
DS flash cart homebrew is incredibly weak by today's standards.
have a peek here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nintendo_DS
you will understand why it cannot emulate GBA. 67 MHz is not much speed for emulators. i believe you need about 10x the cpu power to properly emulate it. see here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_Boy_Advance for more info on gba. about 17 MHz would theoretically need about 200 MHz but that would have to be really optimized code.

In theory you would only need comparable specs to the console you are trying to emulate, realistically you need much more powerful hardware
well also in theory i could run the emulator on a slice of white bread, but you get what i was saying. you need much better hardware to emulate something.
Very well, thanks for telling me. I guess my expectations were a little high for this thing. Or maybe I'm cranky because I had to wait three weeks for it since it was being shipped out of Hong-Kong.
Either way thank you for your time.
You can import a GBA clone from china, it's 35 bucks, or buy a dstwo, that is about 40.
or you can order a REVO and have a lot of emulators, even the arcades for 60 here http://www.k1gbasp.com/pre-order-k101-free-pouch-bag-headphone-4gb-card-offered-p-47.html

No, I'm pointing this out because your use of the phrase in theory is wrong and I'm tired of people saying "in theory" incorrectly. In theory you could have a perfect emulation which would allow for minimal overhead and allow devices of comparable specs to run said emulator. Realistically, emulators are far from perfect and create a substantial processing overhead during translation from the ROM's code to code that can run on said device.
