I need help with my DS(I). I recently bought it new a few weeks ago and I can't hack it. I do not have Flipnote studio, SUDOKU, or any other applications that can allow me to hack my DS(I). I do have a flashcard, but whenever I boot an application it says that I don't have a DS(I) and it won't work.

What application is saying that you don't have a DSi?

Your only option is to hardmod, which involves soldering to 4 very tiny points on the motherboard.

How do I do this? Do you have a guide.

Both FWTool and Unlaunch installer.
I think its because i'm using a flashcard and I'm meant to be using flipnote studio.
I'm following dsi.cfw.guide .

And what if I don't have a DS(I) exploitable game?

Oh sorry the guide says you need to have a DSi exploitable game. https://gbatemp.net/threads/dsi-downgrading-the-complete-guide.393682/

Yes, flashcarts (except for the CycloDS iEvo which only worked on older firmware versions) don't run in DSi Mode. Moreover, even if they did, DSi software in the cartridge slot is unable to access the NAND, so it wouldn't be useful for hacking.

Yeah, I figured. Thanks so much.

Nobody needs an exploitable game nowadays - just follow the steps @ https://dsi.cfw.guide to install Hiya CFW

You need flipnote studio for this exploit. I don't have any DSi ware, let alone flipnote studio.

Sure but you can easily copy flipnote to yout sd card.

This requires it to be on your nand so you can copy it to the SD card.
Unless you mean a .NDS version, which would be useless as you can only run it if you already have Hiya.

Maybe I‘m wrong or I was lucky - I got a new dsi last week and followed the guide right away and it worked (didn‘t check whether flipnote was installed before just copied it like mentioned in the guide to my sd card and was able to start hb launcher).

Wait, how did you install Hiya then? The main method uses Flipnote...

In the guide. You have to open flipnote studio to access hb launcher.

Yes and you can download and transfer flipnote studio to your sd (easy as that - download links in the guide).

You had Flipnote installed already. The download in the guide is for "Flipnote ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) (“Flipnote Lenny”)", which is hacked data used by a pre-existing Flipnote installation.

As stated on https://dsi.cfw.guide/faq , you cannot install HiyaCFW without Flipnote Studio unless you do a hardmod.

Thanks for clarifying - then I must have been really lucky
