actually I found one like this, these use DSTT firmware, do is what you need to make it run
idk if there are wood compatible, would be nice to know
I'm with a "R4 upgrade" from my buddy here, that had this problem.

I used DSTTi-YSMenu704 and it worked

 

[fanidt]

so i had the same problem and i used this and it started loading, after a few minutes it started showing a message that says to update hardware for software support and i don't know what to do. Please help me. the card says r4i v1.4.3 and v2.1.3 3ds revolution for ds and a link that i cant post R4I-GOLD.HK

Try setting your 3DS clock back to 2010 and seeing if that works. If it does, that means your cart has a "timebomb", which means that after a certain date it stops working. You might also want to try using YSMenu on the cart, which doesn't have any timebombs.

Something is wrong with your flashcart then because that kernel is literally from the website link that is on your flashcart.

I'm having the issue where I see "Menu?" the r4 card I am using is a
"Ocamo 2018 Upgrade R4 SDHC Micro SD Memory Adapter Card" off amazon if you put this into google you'll find what I bought and I'm using a dsi.

Not sure if it'll help anyone, but one important thing to note is after formatting your microSD, make sure the kernel files are the first thing you put on the microSD. Apparently if they added too late the internal firmware won't be able to find the kernel on the microSD and then complain.

You have one of the r4isdhc.com cards which will (likely) soft brick in a month. Honestly, if you have the option I'd choose a better quality card (like one from r4ids.cn). While it's possible they'll update the kernel again (they've done it a few times since I got their 2015 version) to extend their soft brick date, it's obviously bad design to intentionally cripple hardware. If they don't update the kernel, you'll have to set the date some time in the past which is just plain annoying/stupid. Or you can try the ysmenu route, but personally that didn't work for me. *shrug*
