Oh great, new page, that means gotta do it again.

You know as well as I do some people won't read anything except part of the first page and the last page that's obviously important (which means huge text in their opinion), it's why there's so many repeated questions in this thread.

I am confused. Right now in http://www.acekard.com/download/ak2/ I see two files, ak2ifw_update_3ds_v1_DSi.nds and ak2ifw_update_3ds_v1_bug.zip

What is the difference and which one do I use if I will be updating my AK2i using a DSi and then playing it on a 3DS?

cool that there is a new version out

Stuff like this is a /facepalm.

Seriously, you don't know what a .zip file is?

If you have a DS/DSL, use the file with _DSL.

If it's DSi/XL, use the file with _DSi

What does the AK2i show up as on the 3DS? What game?

 

[TankTan38]

No.... I meant which one the files in that directory do I use. I didn't know that there was 2 files inside the .zip until after I posted. So I use the one in the zip, not the one on the server?

 

[DarkMario616]

Download the zip

 

[TankTan38]

Download the zip

And use the DSi one? Okay, Ill try.

The .nds file was last changed recently today, so is more likely to be a fixed version than the .zip which I'm assuming is the bugged version since it says bug in the file name.
Still doesn't work on HW:44 though

 

[TankTan38]

Here's what I did:

1. Backed up the files on my SD card.
2. Formatted with the tool on AK website.
3. Installed the AKAIO from AK website.
4. Placed the DSi file from http://www.acekard.com/download/ak2/ak2ifw..._3ds_v1_bug.zip in the ROOT of my MicroSD.
5. Ran it on my sister's DSi and it ran flawlessly, and told me to restart.
5. It showed up as a japanese game, I ran it and it worked on her DSi.

I will test on my american 3DS when I get it at midnight. I'm not scared of it bricking me lol.

My Acekard is HW: 81

The new update is NOT OUT!!

That link is OLD and BUGGED

When there is a new update that is not bugged, it'll be shown here:
http://www.acekard.com/download.php#ak2

Is the bug that it doesnt work on HW:44?

All anyone knows is what's on the website. "There's some bug need to be fixed. Please download it later."
I would not trust anyone except Acekard when they say it's fixed.

does anyone know about spotpass ? i have my 3ds in standby and the blue light blinks. does it mean it downloaded things ? i have my 3ds recharging but without that black charge station. is it the same if i only use the grey thing to recharge the 3ds ?

Best asked in another thread, this one's about Acekard updating.

 

[sliver123]

which forum do i go ?

Hardware is the forums that would have the most information on Hardware features.

Just ask your question in a thread already about spotpass, or make a new thread there.

Just got my 3DS this afternoon and this file says HW: 4444

Guess I shouldn't try it till they say it's safe..

Correct, although no one should try it until Acekard releases the new update file. Hopefuly it'll be 44 compatible.
