I've just received my M3i but it seems to not boot on this DSi I purchased recently (1.4.3U). I downloaded R_M74 and put the system folder on my SD card, along with F_CORE.DAT and M3GUpdaterPlus_143.nds...

I updated properly, saw the light blink red etc. but when I put the card in, I see SpongeBob's Antlantis (assuming the hack thinks it's that?) and I tap it, it says "An error has occured. Press and hold the Power Button to turn the system off. Please see the Nintendo DSi Operations Manual for help troubleshooting."

Does anyone know how I can fix this? For the record, http://www.m3adapter.com/Downloads.htm the download link is broken.

M3 team is dead, get a better Cart:
AceKard2i
R4i Gold 3DS (r4ids.cn)
SuperCard DSTWO

Supercard's a bit pricey, but it has stuff like a GBA emulator and various other stuff.

Why is it that no one does their homework before purchasing a card? I swear I see so many people still buying M3 and then they come here and their 1st post is how to get it working on their DSi or 3DS. Either get a DS Lite or Phat, or get a new card: acekard 2i, r4i gold or supercard dstwo. I would probably go with the acekard myself if I owned a dsi or 3ds.

Please do not suggest another card/respond without knowing the answer.

Further Googling states I just need the proper files (and the main site download link is broken). Does anyone have a working link for firmware/whatnot for 1.4.3U on a DSLite with GMP-Z003?

Update: Got the proper file from here: http://www.dwtechz.c...1-0-8-download/
I needed that F_CORE.DAT and not the one I found from a different Google search. Well so much for getting help, you just get trolled by people who don't know the answer.

Hi, vahnx,

Thanks for the link to the firmware update! I'm wondering, where did you get the updated system folder and "M3GUpdaterPlus_143.nds"?

Just bought an M3i Zero and can't seem to find any working links, which is odd considering I never had any troubles with my M3DS Real back in the day.
