Hacking Anyone has received the flashcart from Eachmall?

vegas-pt · Feb 20, 2014

Got a R4I 3ds Deluxe from here. Took about 3 weeks.

But I got a major problem.

I managed to play Resident Evil Revelations for a couple of hours. The next day it started to freeze sometimes when I inserted the card and now it doesn't recognize the white card in the slot at all.
I tried more than 40 times to put a different game in the sd card with win32imgr. I always do the process of going to the DS card to launch the exploit and then the profile. But it seems that when I am in 3DS Mode it doesn't recognize the white card at all.

Any help? Or should I ask a refund from eachmall.me? I really doubt that they would give me any or send another card... so beware of ordering from this website.

BLUE CARD INSERTED. WORKS NORMAL.

WHITE CARD INSERTED. DOESN'T RECOGNIZE ANY GAME OR CARD IN THE SLOT

I think there is a Gateway help thread stickied around here, check there to see if your problem can be solved without getting a new cart.

Well I finally got an update on my package after nothing since Dec-19 (Shipped Dec 3). My package showed delivery back the SHEZHEN which according to other testimonials, usually means the packages failed to go thru customs for one reason or another and was returned to vendor.

Eachmall is communicating with me and said they will look into it, but after more than 10 weeks of waiting I just wish they would refund me.

Hello Everyone,

I did order a GW at eachmall this Week. I have, like someone else in this thread, a weird tracking number ending with CH. The tracking link provided by eachmall do not find anything on the package.
I got to the track17.net website that only says that the package comes from Switzerland. May be they did stock some best-seller product in Switzerland ?
Any idea ?

I'm not in hurry to receive the package, only would like to confirm that everything is fine.

Thx.

Joe88 · Feb 23, 2014

Wait another week for the tracking to work

I always order my R4isdhc from eachmall, and i usually get it in 14days.. its just that you have to wait. I got my new upgrade card yesterday.
I am not sure why they sent it to Switzerland from Singapore and then to India.. when they could have sent it directly to India from Singapore, either ways i got it.

You can trust them you will get it just wait.. i always buy from eachmall.me

I'm the one who posted that earlier. It was sent the 02/18, the tracking still doesn't work, I'll tell you if I see anything change

I guess it says it's from Switzerland because the tracking number ends with CH, it will change when found.

spiderben25 · Feb 24, 2014

Well I have news, here we go:

Destination Country - France:Tracking Consuming:2714 Millisecond
2014-02-24 00:00, Départ, SUISSE (CH)
Origin Country - Switzerland:Tracking Consuming:2091 Millisecond
2014-02-24 09:36, Departure from border point of origin country, Swiss Post SINGAPORE
2014-02-24 09:36, Arrival at border point of origin country, Swiss Post SINGAPORE
2014-02-24 09:36, Mailed, Swiss Post SINGAPORE

The tracking showed up exactly one week after it's been sent. As far as I understand it went straight from Singapore to Switzerland, never seen that before.

OptimusDark · Feb 24, 2014

Cool. Thx spiderben25 for the update !

It seems that Switzerland is some kind of outpost to delivering packages to European Countries.
May be the customs are less suspicious when it comes from Switzerland that China...

By the way, I red a lot about the bricking pb of the GW and other clones.
It seems that the safest way of using the GW right now would be to use the 2.0B1 to get a NAND backup, and then come back to 1.2 firmware.
I will surely do that.
But I'm afraid all this has caused some paranoia among people (One week ago, it was stated that the 2.0B1 was safe to use...).
Anyway, I would assume that it's better to be safe than sorry...

spiderben25 · Feb 24, 2014

By the time we receive it I hope 2.0 comes out and we don't have to worry about all of this...

tyons · Feb 24, 2014

guys, 2.0b1 IS SAFE. use it. you can even use 2.0b2 once just to update emunand, you won't brick, I "promise", lol. just don't use the system diagnostics feature (I don't see how it's useful anyway, unless the flashcard behaves oddly). anyway, remember: the first thing you must do is a backup of the nand. don't hurry to try a game.
if the flashcard doesn't get read the first times you insert it, try blowing in it. a lot. I had to blow in it many times before it began being detected 100% of the times.

p.s. my gateway went from malaysia directly to italy.

2.0b2 still has a chance of brick, using once is still playing with fire. If you really want to use it, make a backup with 2.0b1 first.

As for blowing on the contacts, that only helps if they are not aligned properly, and your breath isn't blowing away dust, its making the contacts more moist, allowing them to get a better connection. This can have a side effect of oxidization (rust)

tyons · Feb 24, 2014

I know how blowing works. I just wrote my experience and how I fixed the problem.
for 2.0b2, I stand by the opinion that it's worth risking and use it once just to update emunand. at least if you absolutely need it. for example, I have retail pokemon X, but other people may just want to play games that are compatible with 1.2, sure.

I bought my Gateway from Eachmall and was wondering if this is actually an genuine or clone. I notice it wasn't on the official re-seller list and unsure if I have a Gateway clone. The package included everything such as retail box and carts but from Gateway 3DS site, they are saying clone Gateway are floating as well (Not talking about the R4i gateway clones).

I got one from there as well, and the card passes all tests from the 2.0B1 launcher (haven't tried b2, for good reason). As such, I have reason to believe that the stock is real. Plus, the innards match the posted Gateway PCB shots, so I doubt it's a fake.

tyons · Feb 25, 2014

also, maybe the fake gateways didn't exist yet, when eachmall got his stock. just an hypothesis.

I ran 2.0b2 for a little bit. I made a NAND backup, emunand up to 7.0 and launch two games. . Downgrade ever since the bricking incident. Hopefully everything will pass when 2.0 final is actually out.

Nismax · Feb 26, 2014

There are no fake Gateways, it's just Gateway doing what they do best, being douchebags.

spiderben25 · Feb 27, 2014

Got it today! It was shipped 02/18, so it took 9 days, with no customs, really neat.
It was in a bubbled wrapped envelope with the two cards and the flattened cardbox.
