Hacking Looking for ak2i_flash.bin dump of an AK2i with a HWID of 44

[Thunder Hawk]

@Apache Thunder is looking for an ak2i_flash.bin dump of an AK2i with a HWID of 44. The early models of the Acekard2i came with this HWID.

Right now only AceKard 2i. I'm using Decrypt9 on 3DS to flash a custom rom to it. the rom the DSi see's is in a section of the bootloader flash that it doesn't officially support writing to, so I modified Decrypt9 for this.

I may release this build of D9 if I can get a flash dump of the older hw revision of AceKard (the ones with hw id of 44). The offset for that second rom on the older carts may be different so I will not release anything that might brick the older carts.

Also you need hax on your DSi because you have to downgrade it to 1.4.0 and modify the DS Cart White list before you can boot carts with modified roms. (hence how I booted it with a rom that isn't a game spoof. )

The firmware downgrade is because on 1.4, Nintendo forgot to check the RSA sigs of the DS Cart White list SRL. The process is not user friendly right now unfortunately so there's not yet any tools for doing this. I wouldn't recommend you attempt it without a hard-mod. I don't have a hard-mod, but it's mostly safe for me because I know what I'm doing.

And by release, he means a pull request to d0k3's github.

To find out what HWID you have, you could either...

#1. Go into AKAIO, Start -> Help -> AKAIO v#.## HW: 44 <-- If this is 81, rip.
#2. (3DS/2DS) Boot into Decrypt9WIP, NDS Flashcart Options, Dump AK2i (It should say HW: 44 or HW: 81 at the top.)

If you happen to have either an AK2i with a HWID of 44 or an ak2i_flash.bin of a HW: 44, please post a dump of the flash down below. You can make a dump of the flash by following #2 above. Also, please leave what icon the AK2i shows if it is a 44. A list of icons and etc can be found here.

So can someone explain the difference is between the numbers?

The hw44 AceKard's used a smaller flash chip (among other changes perhaps). So offset for the commercial rom it uses may be different. hence I'm interested in finding a dump of one.

and things could go wrong if flashing a rom to the wrong offsets

You could be in trouble for repeatedly bumping a single thread with in a single day.

Eh... well... consider it a bump from an unbumped day.. heh heh eh.

Not about what I consider it, just was looking out for someone.

I think I have one at my other place. Either 44 or 81. Can't remember. I'll check in the next few days.

Alright, I'll keep it in mind. Thanks though.

Maybe you might be able to help?

just quoting to get his attention directly, don't mind me!

 

[Apache Thunder]

Oh nice. So much smaller flash storage. But second rom is at same offset so that's good.

In my time zone they were all on different days. Though I think common decency is to wait at least a couple of days before bumping there isn't really a written rule on exactly how much time has to pass before bumping is allowed (at least not on this forum)
