Yes

Thank you! That did it, gonna try the system settings fix you said.
The guide doesn't seem to be pretty recent, it is still necessary to mark those files as read only?

Based upon /threads/dsi-wlan-on-off.157834/ (I can't post links), it appears that keeping wireless communications on only turns on the LED and enables the wireless card, but does not actually do anything intensive until a title directly attempts to use it, unlike the 3DS which connects to wifi immediately upon the switch being tuned on, so it should be fine to leave it on constantly without much impact on battery life. You can see this when you start the DSi web browser it loads for a while then states "Connected to (name of wifi)", implying a connection was not established beforehand.

I'm not qualified to answer your question regarding the bug, unfortunately . Robz8 would be better to ask whether that bug still exists because i'm fairly certain he's the primary maintainer of HiyaCFW.

On latest luma and both the soft reset and return to dsimenu combos work fine, and the return from settings menu even works now instead of white screening.

I've Luma3DS v9.0 and reset doesn't work at all. So it has nothing to do with it. I've a N3DS XL.

Oh wow it worked just fine after I just installed rei-six instead of luma

Sounds good. But I'm a bit confused with the instructions.
What do I have to do to change Luma to Rei-Six ? Just copy all to microSD card and overwrite the boot.firm?

I had issue with DSMenu++ after updated from SRLoader v4.00.
After successfully updated with recent version of DSmenu++, games loads fine but when I touch the screen just ONCE, suddenly sound muted and touch feature malfunctioning.
It's not just affect to specific game, all games are affected.

ex) DSMenu++
If I play Mario Kart DS, without touch the screen all of the function working (except the touch)
but if I touch it, game's music stop (or mute? I dunno exactly) suddenly and touch feature are not working.

SRLoader
No problem at all.

I had no problem with SRLoader v4.00 but since the updated to DSmenu++ it has a problem.
Is that my problem? or console region specific problem? I'm using a korean dsi console.

Tested spec: Nintendo DSi v1.4.0(1)K (Korean Region) / Unlaunch v0.9 / Hiya CFW v1.3.2 / DSmenu++ v4.4.0 (Rev01)

Test(affected) game: Zelda Phantom of Hourglass, Mario Kart DS, and other few games that I tested them all.

Edit: Because of this problem, I'm still using a SRLoader v4.0.0.

First off, make sure you hold the buttons for a couple seconds, then at least something should happen. And yes, to switch to rei just copy both the rei folder and the boot.firm from the .zip to the root of your sd card and it should work just fine.

Thanks to some users testing this with Rei-Six, they've confirmed that doing the soft-reset, and "return to DSiMenu++" button combos work there.
So, if any of you are still on Luma, and doing any of these button combos throw you to Luma's exception error screen, please switch to Rei-Six.

I would like to confirm as an official member of the Rei-Six team (all two of us) that soft-reset does indeed work on Rei-Six again for me.

I'm using a new 3dsxl US ver. After I select Start DsiMenu++ I get an error saying "fatinitDefault failed!". I followed the How to install section but did I do something wrong?

LoganK93 · Jul 1, 2018

So I attempted to do the flashcard setup but now my flashcard just gives me a white screen when I launch it. Figured I'd update since TWLoader is cancelled but now it ONLY loads from the 3ds sd card and compatibility isn't great.

To fix the touch issue, you have to overwrite the "title" folder on the SD card, with the one from the "CFW - SDNAND root" folder from the new .7z file.

Can I use this with TWloader? I use old version of Twloader for play NeoGeo roms

thx in advance

DSiMenu++ is supposed to replace TWLoader.
You can load the NeoGeo emulator by either using the Y or A button to load it in DSiMenu++.

Try formatting your SD card to FAT32 with 32kb cluster size.

Wrong. Almost every game works with nds-bootstrap now, and loads times are good as a cartridge.

Ok but Another Super Mario 3d for sure didn't work. And that didn't help me with my now "broken" flashcard. I literally transferred my games from the flashcard straight to the 3ds. I just wish it was as easy to set this up as the previous one. It filled the screen, I could set separate light colors, my flashcard worked perfectly without bloating my 3ds sd card, and every rom ran. Now I either have to say goodbye to my rom hacks, or basically restore my flashcard and use some ugly Japanese Konami something logo on my home screen. I also don't have any original ds games to keep in the slot anymore, which I thought would affect saving and compatibility?

Some ROM hacks and translations will still work, and there may be a chance that Another Super Mario 3D will work again.
Also, the only time nds-bootstrap needs a cart now, is to bypass some AP issues, if the ROM is not AP patched.

Just a few questions:

1. I have a gateway blue card and I'd like to use the 133mhz clock speed and the 48kHz sound quality, if I use NTRLauncher 1.9.9 and DSiMenu++ together will I be able to do that?

2. I am setting up the gateway blue card, I downloaded the pack for my card and added the files to the flashcard microSD but when I look for the autoboot files in step 4 "Extract what's in "Flashcard autoboot/(your flashcard)" to the root of the flashcard's microSD card." I can't see the ones to use for this card, are they missing? I am assuming I need them because the card doesn't load properly using just the files from the pack, the menus appear blank, unless there's another problem I might be missing? Thanks!

I suggest using DSiMenu++ on the console's SD card or another flashcard, since compatibility with Gateway Blue Card isn't good.

Hi, there is a method to trade pokémon using DSi Menu ++? Thanks

You can trade normally with local wireless or WiFi.

Made an account just to say that I think you're doing an awesome job here. My only complaint right now is that some hacks that utilize xdelta (Pokemon Volt White 2, Pokemon HGSS Play as Kris/Gold + De-capitalization Patch) throw up an error. Tested in both 10.0 and Nightly. Pokemon Volt White and Pokemon White 2 (with only AP/Exp fix) work without issue. Same with dumps made from my own carts.

Did you extract the correct flashcard pack?

TiagoS10 · Jul 2, 2018

this works on R4i SDHC 3DS RTS?

Yeah, the cannot find system file happens when I move the autoboot over to the root of my flashcard sdcard

TheModHead · Jul 2, 2018

Can I use DSi menu ++ to update my flashcard? As I can't boot it, even when using DSi menu ++
If your wondering, I have it installed on my DSi XL
Edit: My R4 card is a R4i RTS gold 3DS (just in case it matters)
