For homebrewing your DSi, use https://DSi.cfw.guide. It will guide you through installing CFW and TWLMenu++, a way to play games through your SD.

Once you do that, you can use this tool, and edo9300's save dumper to extract save files from game cards.

Does that answer your question?

How do I get Wooddumper working on the DSI? I usually just follow tutorials for things (That's how I got hiyaCFW on my DSi by the way) so I dont know exactly where to put the wooddumper files. A reply is unlikely saying the last post I can see is from about a year ago lol.

Put the contents into the title folder on the SD card, merge folders if asked.

However, GM9i can now dump ROMs too.

Now I feel like I'm being annoying, but I spent hours setting up hiyaCFW and wooddumper specifically for a legal way to get a Pokemon Black 2 ROM so I could do a randomizer, but the dump keeps failing. I was curious if it was just that game, so I tried dumping New Super Mario Bros DS and Mario Kart DS, and they both worked. I'm sure it's just something wrong with my cart, but if there is anything else wrong....

The text that follows it whenever I attempt to dump:
Reading Header...
card id: 0xc001fec2
Header readed...
Reading secure area...
secure area ok.
Secure area readed...
card device: 0x2
Reinsert target card.
<A>: OK
Reading header...
card id: 0x6c77ac1c
Header readed...
Reading secure area...
secure cardid fail: fc5baf78
Secure area readed...
Init finished: (R? nvef) (0)
dump fail. EXTRACT card.

Just use godmode9 to dump the rom with. at this point I dont think legallities really matter with how ya get the rom.

Legally speaking you're not even allowed to remove copy protection that includes installing CFW

Last time I downloaded a ROM from the internet I got a notice that my right of having internet would be taken away.

I don't really want to mod my 3DS. I really only mod the DS and Wii.
Welp.
I'll just keep wasting my time trying to find ways to do this

I've tried Godmode9i, but it gets stuck on the mounting drive(s) screen, soooo
Ya really dont have much option other than to hack your 3ds. just download the rom from somewhere. Or go over to the DSi forums and troubleshoot your issues on the forums there.

    I rather enjoy a life of taking it easy. I haven't reached that life yet though.
