While there are a few discussions about this topic going on throughout GBAtemp, I felt that one centralized post would benefit our community. According to Team SuperCard, the 3DS v4.4.0-10 firmware update will permanently block all but 2 Flash Kits. Please keep in mind that these numbers and this news are not yet fact, we are awaiting responses from various teams, but looking at the information it seems this was the intended outcome of the new firmware update.
Be advised, do not update to 3DS v4.4.0-10
1. From the current market, most of the cards are without save IC, so be blocked now. Therefore, this is the hardware defect, software can not solve.
2. Part of the card on the market have save IC, but the main control program has been burned to fixed (FPGA program). So user can not solve this problem too, unless return to the factory.
From now on, flash card support 3DS 4.4.0-10x " are DSTWO (released upgrade file already here..) and a xxx r4 (released video only, no upgrade file released).
Thanks to Rydian for the tip!
Edit #1Which R4i Gold/R4iDSN are supported? Above is an image that recently popped up that shows how to tell what unit you have. Updatable units include 9, A, B, and C. (Thanks exangel).
Edit #2
A patch for the R4i Gold (R4ids.cn) has been released. Grab it HERE.
