I just got my DSi yesterday and updated it. After doing some research, it appears that my old R4 doesn't work and the Acekard is supposed to be better.
I see that there's a 1.4 fix, but I'm not really sure how to do it.

I'm thinking of ordering this: http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.18728
I have a DS Phat and a DSi with 1.4U

What do I do?

Put the hack and Akaio 1.5 on the SD card,and then run the hack through the DS phat,and then place the card back into the DSi and it will work.

I've read through that thread and I wasn't sure if I would be able to get the Aacekard working since most of the people there have DS lites, not phats.

there are 2 update files one labeled DSL and one labeled DSi use the DSi one cuz the DSL one is for if you have more than one ak2i to flash , that's why most ppl brick is cuz they use the DSL one and flash a second time on accident causing a brick.
the DSi one works in ds phat,ds lite, and dsi 1.3 fimeware and lower though the names are a but misleading.

if you follow the link I posted, you'll notice the first 5 replies in which mine is included. I said in the youtube that Im using a DS Phat and Im using the DSi 1.4 update (not DSL 1.4) and it's a successful.

Ok, so I need to:

1. Purchase the Acekard I linked in the OP.
2. Download the fix
3. Place fix on the card
4. Put card in DS Phat
5. Install fix.
6. Remove Acecard and place it into the DSi.

Chris_Skylock, I just re-read the first 4 pages and there's only 2-3 posts asking the same thing I did. There were answers, but not very specific so I made this thread. Also, I don't want to scroll through 2 and a half minutes of a YouTube video when I can get the same information in a few seconds by reading text. Thanks for the help though!

Why link the video in the first place if it's not going to help?

I wasn't asking if it worked. I knew it worked; I was asking how to do it. Ugh, forget it. Arguing on the internet is stupid.

Thank you all for all the help, gbatemp. Even you, Chris.

im not here to argue. What's the point watching documentated videos on the discovery channel, then? lol.

You download the fix and get the DSi 1.4 fix on your acekard 2i, put it on your Original DS and you're good to go. The DSL 1.4 fix is for people with Original DS/ DS Lite and have multiple acekard 2i's.

I was just so curious how people bricked theirs? oh, they used the wrong file?

I sure hope we dont fight as I dont like flaming.
