Akaio Classic does not work on R4 Ultra.
You need Akaio Ultra. It's available at the Ultra webpage.
We don't know if there'll be any version 1.8.2 or higher of Akaio Ultra.
hmmz, since i like being a guinea pig i searched and found it on google
no problem so far on my acerkard 2i, i launched few games to verify, even rebooted the ds
card was already up to date with firmware 1.4.1

I also like to be a kindof guinea pig, thus I downloaded it from a japanese website (and left a comment in their page for them to understand that the version can brick some cards in some situations) and tested it (as a small report for Normmatt and AKAIO team).
I experienced the same as keyra. I have an acekard 2i, and tested it with some games. Nothing awkward happened.
I changed some of the global settings (specifically changed Language, Theme (Skin) and disabled global AAP, just for kicks) and I didn't have that problem of any changes not getting saved.
Finally, I tried some homebrew (mainly NDS_TGM (20080815), 3DViewerDS (ver 0.1) and msxDS (v0.88)). I had no problems with those.
I kind of got suspicious about how smoothly everything was going (I was expecting at least the globalsettings.ini problem), so I formatted my µSD and returned to relative safety with 1.8.1, until the new release gets done.
Thus, here is a suicide disclaimer: Please, don't take any of the reports here as an assurance that you're in the safe spot and download it. I might have not gone through a specific procedure which activates any of the problems already reported. Let's be patient and hope for the AKAIO team to resolve those problems.
Nevertheless, thanks as always to the AKAIO team.
EDIT #1: I figured I should write which settings I changed and which versions of those homebrews I ran.
Oh. I tested it on a Ak2i 1.4.1 & DSi XL 1.4.1 & 8 GB SanDisc (fresh formattet with Panasonic).
I also noticed that the blue "Loading" screen seems to change the colour in a split second.

AKAIO 1.8.1 for the ultra was a one-off build, it is not planned to get any more updates.kylster said:
You will have to wait for the official firmware to get updated, and when move to that.
There's one thing I really don't understand: Why is it such a big deal and somehow impossible to release the 1.8.2 loaders for 1.8.1 now?
Kids won't need to search for 1.8.2 anymore, and the development team would have much less pressure on their shoulders.

I have a friend that was so paranoid about bricking his card with a rogue rom that he shut off his DS during one of those save data preparation messages being displayed with a newly downloaded rom, bricking his Acekard 2. Fortunately for him, I had an extra 2i available.
I tried to see if it was possible to unbrick an AK2 but couldn't find anything. At least I know why I couldn't find anything now. I will be interested in seeing the results of this mishap.

If you put the 1.8.2 loaders on 1.8.1 then mismatched loaders (1.8.2 loaders on 1.8.1 base) will cause all games to not boot but is reversible by simply reinstalling AKAIO 1.8.1 without updating loaders at all.Ruffy94 said:

One, including the one in the first post. The download link was removed before further damage was inflicted. Any bricks after the link was removed is due to people's own stupidity because the warning was released and they must now wait for Normmatt's unbricking tool.dude of the green said:

Anybody here have a Xbox series S and a series X, is the performance difference noticeable? Not worried about 4k. I have a series X but not a series S and was curious. (Reason- I was thinking of buying a series S for a second tv, for when grandkids come over, to keep them off my X) -
