Hold (A)+(B) while turning on the DSi to bring up unlaunch filemenu. Then try booting from the list:
  • hiyaCFW → hold (SELECT) immediately for HiyaCFW configuration.
    • make sure to tick (x) Autoboot title
  • TWiLight Menu++ (most things should work when directly booting into TWiLight Menu++ and it boots faster)
If neither of these two work select Launcher from the list (should be the first bootable entry). This will at least allow you to boot into SysNAND and use the DSi.

Other things to try:
  • check the SD for defects and/or try a different SD
  • use HiyaCFW-helper again
  • fill the SD with any files or garbage data until less than 2GB are free

What I did was just resize the main partition to be exactly 2 GB and it worked no problem.
Yes, this does also work perfectly if you are sure that you don't need more than 2GB.

The four pokemon games black|white (1|2) alone take almost 1GB (trimmed).

That worked fine for me.
Thank you.

I mostly just use a flash cart for games in general and only use the CFW for homebrew, I also did try the DS Game Forwarder tool for DSi and it works but with one problem, since it uses ndsbootstrap, not all games are compatible with it, also the flashcarts that I have tried out all had almost near perfect compatibility.

It works but partially for me, because when i want to start any application (i dunno like camera, settings, etc), it pops out ones again the error that don´t let me do anything.
if someone could please help me, i will be so grateful.

    @K3Nv2 what was your ps4 situation
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    did you always have a ps4 you never updated
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    or were you able to get new ps4 tracking it \
    as soon as the hack was announced
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    or did you have to find a used one with the lower firm ware that was not updated
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I got this ps4 at launch and never updated since 9.0
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    You got a good chance of buying a used one and asking the seller how often they used or even ask for a Pic of fw and telling them not to update
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    Speaking of PLaystation. I see Evilnat put out a beta for PS3 CFW 4.91.2 on the 22nd.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Don't really see the point in updating it tbh
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea you right, I thought about updating my PS3 CFW to 4.91, but why really, everything plays fine now. I guess for people that have already updated past 4.9 it would be helpful.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Idk if online servers are still active that would be my only thought

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Thats true, personally I don't play it online at all, in fact, I deleted all wifi details on it once I installed CFW, so it won't connect and auto-update itself
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I play most games that are on both PS3/360 strickly on the 360, but PS3 exclusives are really only games I play on the PS3 (You know me, I'm more of a Xbox junkie)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Ps3 really has no titles worth going online over nps is the only reason you'd want wifi
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @K3Nv2, what about GTA v onl... O Yea the PS3 versión got discontinued
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
