    Weird R4 Firmware.bin dump

    not joking this might be the only specific working backup on the internet. At least, as far as google and any of the standard method has been able to get me, I have not come across another one!

    Weird R4 Firmware.bin dump

    Ok well I had too many issues with this programmer which ultimately culminated with it falling off my desk and cracking :( This looks promising though so I look forward to trying that!! I ordered another one but also ordered one of these “EZP” ones which appears to do the same thing. In the...

    Weird R4 Firmware.bin dump

    I have tried everything... and I am currently trying G-Flash. The chip identifies itself automatically but when Flashing it doesn't want to work: I have no idea what I am doing to be honest, but it didnt work in ASProgrammer or NeoProgrammer- when flashed in either of these two, it would...

    Weird R4 Firmware.bin dump

    ok that addresses my EEPROM concerns. I don't actually know what is invalid. when I first dumped it, I made a copy of the rom it uses to load itself and opened it with dsbuff. it wouldnt open with NSMBe, and when I looked, it reported an invalid CRC thing. Also whats confusing me is initially...

    Weird R4 Firmware.bin dump

    I noticed when I downloaded it, there were lots individual files. I see, thats annoying but understandable. I gave some of the firmwares you linked a go and they successfully restored, but they would not boot. Whenever I boot, I get the same error (CRC invalid) which leads me to believe that the...

    OH you're a star, Thank you!! I just downloaded them all! I will try these all out now. Also, forgive me I have just had a three hour pure math exam so maybe I'm not as sharp right now, but, in terms of using the chip programmer... provided I use your parameters you suggested, is it just a...

    Weird R4 Firmware.bin dump

    ok I will give this a shot but I fear the problem is the cart not actually being registered anymore. I wonder if it is bricked bricked instead of "wrong software" bricked....

    Weird R4 Firmware.bin dump

    Thank you for this. I will use this when I try fix it! I didn't find any firmware files specifically for my one though. I tried your firmware but it didnt work :( I keep getting invalid CRC error when using NTR Launcher and it makes my 3ds freeze when I put it in. The card also no longer...

    Weird R4 Firmware.bin dump

    Thank you for the reply! I will give that a go but I am not holding out much hope :( It keeps giving me a flashcart failed to setup when using a DSi so I am going to give it another go with the 3DS. I think it is fully bricked, and I am going to have to wait till my chip programmer arrives...

    Weird R4 Firmware.bin dump

    **UPDATE** I believe these two firmware bins could be the same. I used a HexFiend to compare them and it turned out that they were identical except for about 30 ish characters on line 3000? One is from a post which describes how to restore another flashcart from the same company: My card...

    Weird R4 Firmware.bin dump

    Ohh right I see what you mean now. Well one is pre 2014 iirc which might explain why it has a different board number. I was wrong then! I see what you mean about the firmware issue. Is there a way to change this then with an appropriate SPI flasher? I would add that I am not that advanced. My...

    Weird R4 Firmware.bin dump

    Ahh I see, thank you for getting back to me! I was wondering though, considering this some form of DSTT/DSTTi clone, would it be possible to flash it with firmware from a different card?...of course provided it has the same insides And on that; The discussions that I had with other people on...

    Weird R4 Firmware.bin dump

    any luck finding an unbricked firmware? A member in the discord channel also now needs the same firmware because we both... might have messed it up :wacko:

    Weird R4 Firmware.bin dump

    Ahh ok. I do have a gas solder iron, however I have neglected the tips. I think it actually has a hot air attachment, but it's better if I can avoid soldering to be honest. I have ordered it anyway as it was only a few quid :) 1716461781 Also, I don't know if it was clear in the images...
