    Hacking [Update] R4i Gold 3DS [and DSTWO] firmware update to support 6.1.0-X RELEASED

    I would like to add that I also have the R4 3DS from r4ids.cn. Icon is from Konami, little person with the sideways Q. I updated to Wood 1.60, then updated with the patch on my DS lite. Then updated my 3DS and the card was indeed blocked at first. Popped it open and used a razor to deeply slice...

    Hacking Problem updating R4iGold from r4ids.cn, Revision C

    That's great to hear. I bought mine from them at the end of July but didn't bother to contact them in hopes that an update would be released. I never would think they would just offer to replace it. If I may ask, how did you phrase your correspondence with them to get them to offer to exchange...

    Hardware 3DS XL speakers sound uneven.. opinions?

    You're very lucky. When I got the first DS Phat, I had to exchange it three times in order to get one I was satisfied with, and even THAT one had a dead pixel! It was just in a less obvious spot. Well, thanks for the coins advice, if I end up exchanging it I'll definitely do that!

    Hardware 3DS XL speakers sound uneven.. opinions?

    Oooh. I didn't register the 3DS yet. You think I should register it even if I plan on returning it? As for other issues, most people are complaning about a yellowish tint on the top screen. Some of those people say the tint gets better over time as the glue dries. That's the most unusual...

    Hardware 3DS XL speakers sound uneven.. opinions?

    I actually think the speakers sound nice, besides being too low. I tried the mono setting, and although it seems to work, I do prefer being able to have a stereo effect.

    Hardware 3DS XL speakers sound uneven.. opinions?

    Hah, interesting advice but I don't think it's my ear. It sounds totally fine with headphones. [hr]Posts merged I did experiment with the sound settings, and I notice it with Surround and Stereo but not Mono, which makes no sense to me! What do you mean by register coins? It's my first 3DS...

    Hardware 3DS XL speakers sound uneven.. opinions?

    Picked up a blue 3DS XL yesterday, and I swear there's a problem with the speakers. It just feels like the left one is a bit louder than the right, as if there's a 60/40 balance as opposed to 50/50. It's just enough to bother me a bit. Half the time I think I'm imagining it and half the time I...

    Gaming Kingdom Hearts 3DS at Target, $10 gift card.

    Just what the topic says. Saw it in today's flyer, went to the store and picked it up for $39.99 and got a $10 gift card. Just spreadin' the word!

    Hardware 3DS XL.. best place to buy?

    With the upcoming release of the 3DS XL, I was just wondering about people's opinions on the best place to buy it from. I know that sometimes some stores offer gift cards, or free items, games, etc but I've yet to really see any ads for them yet. Also, I was looking into getting an extended...

    Hacking R4i Gold 3DS memory card problem/question..

    Yeah, I'm just gonna run to Walmart and pick up an 8GB Sandisk for 10 bucks, then I can return the Kingston if I need to. Running a full format on it just to be sure, but I doubt it'll do anything. Thanks for all your help!

    Hacking R4i Gold 3DS memory card problem/question..

    I got the R4i from realhotstuff. http://realhotstuff.com/r4i-gold-3ds-p-518.html I believe it is legit, when I put in my 2GB PNY card, it works fine, boots up, games work, etc. I just tried using the 8GB card in my PS3 and Xbox, with a USB and SD card adapter.. and I can't get it to appear at...

    Hacking R4i Gold 3DS memory card problem/question..

    Just got my R4i Gold 3DS in the mail today and I was setting it up with a brand new Kingston 8GB SDHC memory card, formatted with SDFormatter . No matter what I try, I can't get it past the "R4i Gold 3DS Starting" screen. Then I try the SD card I was using with my old R4, a 2GB non-SDHC PNY...

    Hacking R4i Gold 3DS or R4i SDHC 3DS?

    I'm still trying to decide which card to get, but I'm leaning towards the R4i Gold mainly because it's cheaper and I don't really think I'd use the extra features of the SuperCard. Are these cards here legit or should I only buy from the sites listed on r4ids.cn? R4i...

    Hacking R4i Gold 3DS or R4i SDHC 3DS?

    I didn't realize that the SDHC was a clone card, they had it and the Gold for sale on realhotstuff (where I got my R4) so I figured they were just different models from the same company. Is there any downside to the SuperCard DSTwo? Will I be able to transfer my game saves from my R4? Thanks for...

    Hacking R4i Gold 3DS or R4i SDHC 3DS?

    I have a DS Lite with a R4 card, works fine, no issues. I was planning on getting a 3DS XL in a few weeks and I figured my R4 wouldn't work on it. I was trying to decide on a new R4 card to get that would work on the 3DS XL and my DS Lite. I can't seem to figure out what the difference between...
