It shouldn't be the contrary? I mean, everyone would buy the new rev. to be able to update their 3DS if they say that, no?
I don't know much in publicity, but it seems to be logical.
I even said if i should buy the new rev. and they told me to wait or to buy it if I'm impatient.

That's why they posted that their newest model supports it directly.

They will post all the good they can, but they hesitate to say anything bad.

Flash cart teams will gladly say "Our new model supports 6.x!" and leave out "But none of our other ones do".

I edited my post, but that seems logical to not say anything bad in public. But why lie in private when they don't push me to buy another flashcard.
Sigh,anyway, I don't have money to buy another rev., and less to buy a DStwo,so I'll just play on my broken ds where half of my games don't work because it uses the L button or the mic.
And travel with all my games with my 3ds isn't an option.

This sucks. Even when I take the card out and put it back in like the video, it still doesn't work.

Yep same here even tried with dstwo and dslite take dstwo load update take dstwo out and r4ids dorasu card in and surprise surprise green fail. I purchased my card zuchu in march and now card is unusable 6.x firm.

I saw the videos on another thread and their dorasu card are rts and mine doesn't have it but I don't think this is an issue.

Yeah, I have the Dorasu card too, dead, sadly.

Mmmhh...Something seems weird.
In the wood help tab,it says Sys:NDSi 1.41&3DS1.0.0.I have the Dorasu icon and it work on DSi 1.45.Is it a bug with wood 1.60b or my card?

Mind you, I've only read about half of this thread.

I vaguely remember having to bridge a circuit on my old DS Phat back in the day to use an ancient PassMe method of some sort. Why is making a single cut on a $9 flashcard upsetting so many people? It's a quick, cheap fix. Isn't that the exact reason most of these people got an R4 rather than a DSTwo?

Meanwhile, I've kept all of my old systems. Our trusty, albeit outdated, Acekards work good enough :tpi:


Edit: I've discovered that, for pocket change and a couple weeks for delivery, you can purchase cards that are already updated. I remember shelling out $50 or more for a card, waiting about a month and then praying it was real and worked properly with the games or homebrew that you wanted to play. and updates, god help you if you had a card that was never going to update more than once a year, if ever.

Hi there, new to the forum and need help installing my r4i. I just picked up a 3DS XL (still sealed) with an r4i (looks exactly like this one: http://www.r4-ds-au.com/product_images/uploaded_images/R4i Gold 3DS New Label.jpg, its www.r4ids.cn) and unfortunately my 3DS XL is 6.0.0.11U, so the r4i needs to be updated. I downloaded the WOOD 1.60 kernel update along with the 6.0 patch, extracted the files from them to my formatted 16 GB sandisk ultra micro sd card (while keeping the R4iGold_3DS60_Patch_NDSi_3DS.nds and deleting the other one), and then when I put the micro sd card in my r4i and try to run it on my XL (it thinks the cart is konami digital entertainment), and just get an error message on the bottom screen saying "An error has occurred. Press and hold the power button to turn the system off. Please refer to the Nintendo DSI operations manual for details". Any help??

You can't update the card when 6.0. is already on de 3ds. Try finding someone with a 3ds with older software and update from there.

Don't think I picked the best time in the world to buy a r4 lol, mine is currently somewhere between china and the u.k. I purchased the card from zuchu and from what I understand its a rev c so does that mean its likely to be updatable? At this stage I'm wondering if I should just get a dstwo.

Would this update work on my R4SDHC white for 3ds??
No. Updates only work on specific models.

or will there be an update for that version of the r4, I updated my 3ds by mistake
If there is an update, it will come from your cart's website, not the website of another cart.

Is it true that there are some models of R4i Gold that DOESN'T require the trace to be cut? I wish the R4i Gold team has some consistency when labeling which cards can be updated or not.
