You will find your carts original kernel on Linfox Domain (search the page for ndslr4.com). Install and you could try Dual Booting with the R4i-SDHC YSMenu folder, at your own risk.

Hi,

It looks like I have the same cart as the aforementioned gentleman (it looks like this http://www.r4seller.com/images/v/201006/12759398371.jpg) but I simply can't get it to work. What I did was

  1. Downloaded R4SDHC_R4_v1.34_English.rar from Linfox
  2. Extracted it to the root of sd card
  3. Verfied it boots
  4. Extracted the contents of R4i-SDHC YSMenu from RetroGameFan Multi Cart Update v7.00b3 to the root of sd card
  5. Booted it up and tried starting YSMenu.nds
Creating a SAV file or ignoring it does not seem to change the result: the top screen stays black and the bottom screen stays white. Any ideas?
EDIT: The SD card was obviously formatted with the tool as FAT32.

Hey guys. I'm a total noob at this, and I can't seem to find any advice anywhere. I have a DSLite, a DSi, and a 3DSXL, all of which are updated to the newest updates. I have an R4i Gold Plus card from r4ids.com and an R4i3DS from r4i-sdhc.com but neither of them will work on any of my hardware anymore. I wanted to know if there is anything I can do in order to get them working again, or if I'm completely boned. Any help would be great.

The official site is offline but from linfoxdomain i've found the official kernel 2.07 but this is outdated. I've downloaded the Ysmenu from this page but some games don't work. An example is Pokemon White 2 that gives me white screen. Anyone can help me to find the correct version of Ysmenu or i have to install a particular version?

@ Everyone
A new Multicart Update is available and the front page has been updated :).


I have completely reworked all older AP games to increase cart compatability because the original fixes were only made for DSTTs and wouldn't work on all carts.

Please do a full update as there are some changes to the kernel files.


DSTWO users can now use YSMenu but please Note: You can only use up to a 2GB SDHC microSD.

@ Zach1995
All games should work for you now.

@ enzopazzo90
Use the R4i-SDHC folder in v7.01 and follow the instructions on the front page/How to Install.txt.

@ snake218
You can try the R4i-SDHC YSMenu folder in v7.01 at your own risk, since these CRAP carts from r4isdhc.com and all its other fake sites, copy other carts kernel!

@ Sakura1
Use the DSTT YSMenu folder in v7.01 and follow the instructions on the front page/How to Install.txt.

I've tried both R4i-SDHC and R4i Clone but it doesn't work. Why? It's impossible... The oldest games work perfectly but the lastest game, in particular pokèmon white 2 don't work.

Hi! I'm becoming crazy! Pleas Help me!
Is for two days that I'm trying to put into my r4 sdhc ultra Animal Crossing Wild World that i was playing in an emulator so i have the save yet, but it's not important.
I've tryed EVERYTHING (except change the flash card), like said I have a fake R4, the R4 Ultra, i've tryed every kernel, AKAIO, the r4ultra's kernels and YSMENU i've tryed several version of this kernels and I found some versions that works, I've tryed Mario Kart DS for test (that works very well) and Animal Crossing Wild World, and this game doesn't work, I've tryed so many combinations that I can't count them, I've tryed to change the rom (that is clean), kernels, all files .dat that retrogamefan gave me and the file infolib.dat that rezatron put into this topic but there is always after a blue Loading, a red Loading and then a WHITE SCREEN, I'm becoming crazy!!
I have to say that a combination of DAT of retrogamefan and the YSMenu201310 seems works becouse before the white screen the Nintendo logo with a voice spelling it appear (is normal) but then everything crashes and it remains so.
PLEASE HELP ME I'M BECOMING CRAZY!



p.s. excuse me for the english, I'm Italian.

That's a picture of the loading screen. It's been stuck like that for 15 minutes straight. My DSi is running the 1.4.5 firmware. My microSDHC card is a SanDisk 4GB Class 4. I hope the details I gave above will help.

@ Everyone
A new DAT Update is available and the front page has been updated :).
I've included a file called "Games that contain AP.txt" which lists all games that have Anti-Piracy in them.

@ Zack1995
It is fixed in the new DAT update.

@ enzopazzo
Please try a different µSD. FULL Format. Install your carts kernel onto the root of your µSD, then install R4i-SDHC YSMenu onto the root of your µSD. Copy Pokemon White 2 only to the Games folder on your µSD.

@ ArnoDorian
To me it looks like you're trying to install TTMenu on a non DSTT cart. You should be using YSMenu (if your cart supports it). Please check your PM.

I've been away from the DS scene for quite some time now.

So, let me get this straight. This is like an alternative firmware for multiple carts? Will this work on my R4 DS with a 16GB uSD card? Would I be better off using WOOD R4? I mostly want to run home-brew emulators and .nds backups.

I'm glad to see this stuff is still being developed.

Does the card have a "NEW" label in red letters? You can try these kernels:

Dual-Core "NEW" (2012) kernel: http://www31.zippyshare.com/v/30530571/file.html

Original Dual-Core (-2011) kernel: http://www31.zippyshare.com/v/61003843/file.html

If 2014 label you can get it from the official site. 2013 kernel you can get from www.r4isdhc.in

Any way this works on a r4 snoopy 2014?

Snoopy works by using original kernel and dual booting YSMenu from R4iSDHC folder
