AK2i Update for DSi 1.4

[EcoSport]

qUaK3R, I bought my acekard 2i at http://www.realhotstuff.com/. I talked to them directly before I bought it, and they said that they have already updated all of the acekard 2i's that they sell so they work with the 1.4 firmware. I only have a DSLite, so I cannot confirm, but give them a call...they have very quick shipping, and are helpful. If they said they updated the cart, I bet they did...they also accept returns for 30 days. Best of all, they speak English (they are in New Jersey). I might be getting a DSi soon. If I do, I will write back if my acekard works or not. Oh yeah, and I run AKAIO, and it says I have HW 81, so I guess that means it's a real acekard 2i, not a fake.

I just got a DSi, and put in my Acekard 2i that I bought from RealHotStuff, and it worked right away...with the Danny Phantom icon, of course. RealHotStuff did update the card before sending it to me.

Does Shoptemp do the same?
btw I just bought a DSi LL and can't use my Acekard cuz i can't find a DS Lite to update it

Don't know about Shoptemp. RealHotStuff definitely does update their AK2i's to Danny cards, and it's only $3 more with free shipping (you'd probably spend more than $3 shipping it from Shoptemp.

Help! I downloaded and everything but it won't work it just kept telling me to update over and over. Then when it was updating for the 7th time my brother turned it off so now it won't work on the ds or the dsi! Oh and its Acekard2i....

Sounds like you'r card is bricked and it better be an AK2i, that's what this thread is for lol. In order to fix it, find another flashcard to use and and execute the DSL update on it. It will ask you to eject the card and put in an Acekard. Put in your bricked AK2i and press whatever button to start the update. Update it ONCE and put it back in your DSi.

The DSLite version of the updater is a "batch version" it's made to update acekard2i without quitting, so of course, it will always ask to press a button to upgrade even after it's completed.

When it's done once and ask you again to upgrade, you just turn off your DS and try your ak2i on DSi...

Here, you certainly misflashed your ak2i by shutting down while it was upgrading.

You now need another flashcart to run this soft and fix your ak2i.

Take a look at my thread http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=231410 it will tell you how to unbrick it.

You will need a DS Lite and another flashcart to do this (doesn't have to be an Acekard)

OK guys I hope someone can help me out here cause its got me stuck. I have a 4 DSi's one is running 1.4.1 (thats what it says) then I got 2 that are on 1.4 one new in box one not. Then I got a new in box 1.3 system. Since I could not get them to work I did some reading and saw that I need to update them to (I do have the AK2i's) 1.4 as well. So I did using the 1.3 system and all was good. Then today I get the An error has occurred. So first thing I do is format the SD card (PNY 8 gig micro) fat32 with the SDformatter v2.0 and put AKAIO 1.8.1 back on it and still same error. I can put it in the 1.3 system and it works fine put it in a 1.4 gives the error. Still shows the danny Phantom. Any idea what I need to do to get this going. Also I have more than one AK2i all of them do and say the samething.

You really need to learn how to research better. You update the AK2i to the latest firmware, not the DSi (update the DSi after updating the AK2i).

The problem is you're using an outdated firmware.
You should reflash your Acekard 2is to 1.4.1 using this, afterwards their icon on a DSi will appear as Alex Rider (

the 2 I had I updated before I even got the AK2i's one was updated out of the box so I did not update it anyway. I still have the one running 1.3 which will stay that just in case I need the 1.3 for anything.

Thank you I used the 1.3 DSi to update the cards and they work just fine again once again thank you.

 

[BloodyFlame]

Well if it worked after you did that, that means you didn't update the Acekard's Firmware.

I updated it to the danny Phantom 1.4 not the current 1.4.1 Which is the Alex Rider Stormbreaker When I did the google search for the error it kept giving me the 1.4 firmware. never seen the 1.4.1. once again thanks for the help

Doesn't work with 1.4.5u? I get the danny phantom icon, then:

"An error has occurred. Press and hold the Power Button to turn the system off. Please see the Nintendo DSi Operations Manual for help troubleshooting."

Not sure my hardware version.

The AceKard is dead. It ran out of space to put updates on so it will never support 1.4.5

Also, why this thread? There must be some newer AK threads that would've answered your question

Sorry, I got mixed up and didn't see the date on the post. Got hopeful there for a second. Oh well, guess I'll throw it back in a drawer again. Thanks.

Not a problem. I was also sad to see the AK2i go too
