Get a micro SD reader... this is very important (well that is already provided so yeah :P )...

Once you have downloaded the latest version from the site, unzip it with either Winzip or Winrar (google them too lazy to post links) and you should have some files... copy all of them and paste all of them into the root of your Micro SD card... if it asks to overwrite, just click yes. (or backup your ROMS and save files just in case).

And wtf kernel version 1.47 is VERY OLD. You don't need it. Get the latest version that you see in the website. As of the time of my post, the latest is at 1.53b.

R4i-sdhc 1.4 can not be updated for higher firmware. So if the DS is on firmware higher than 1.4 the card will not work. The only thing you can do with the r4i-sdhc 1.4 is have the newest kernel to play the newest games. :( I e-mailed the r4i-sdhc.com team and they told me the 1.4 card can not be updated and they're sorry. They posted it can't be updated on the home page of their website, at the bottom-left hand side.

Huh? I wish I could speak in Filipino here so I can understand you further but we're not allowed to do that.

Let me get this straight, you already got the 1.53b (whatever the latest version is), extracted the files and copied them all to the root of your micro SD?

Then, everything should be fine at this point, I don't see what the problem is. o_o;; (unless your r4 cart is the one at the bottom) then you're pretty much screwed.

And no, I don't exactly live near QC, but if you go to Rob Galleria and play Pokemon TCG, you might spot me there on a Sunday.

I got a weird problem, I got 2 R4i SDHC carts one with a yellow saying v1.4 and the other v1.4.1, the problem is the one with v1.4.1 is not upgradeable. I put v1.60b firmware. When I go to config, to upgrade the cart.
I press upgrade it says, upgrade, under that, written is, current version support model NDSL, NDSi 1.42 under that is box with back. there's no start button upgrade.

But my other, R4i SDHC the one with v1.4 works, I can upgrade the v1.60b kernel plus it run on my 3ds with the latest Nintendo firmware V4.3.0-10 E.

It's not an uncommon situation. Wait for an update for that cart from the site.

That's the point kernel v1.60b is the update for the both cart. the one with the yellow 1.4 upgrade to v1.60 and runs one the 3ds. Where the newer cart with the yellow v1.41 i can put the kernel in it show up on the bottom. But when I go to upgrade i can't. just says that it's NDL NDSi 1.42. I just get another card.

Upgrades are generally per-cart, and teams will sometimes update one of their carts without updating another.
