Updated fine for me using my DS lite and Acekard 2i HW81.
However I'm hesitant to use this on my 3DS just yet. What steps can I take to delete the logs that show I've been playing the Dorasu game?

Try applying the update again?

I would if my AK could boot up

Edit: Well, backed up data, formatted, reinstalled AKAIO. STILL A WHITE SCREEN. There's even a white screen when there's no microSD in, instead of the usual "Loading..."

Guess I'm just out of an AceKard... Did anyone else with a HWID of 8181 have something like this happen?


Which file did you use, the DSL or DSi one? Did you run the update on a DSi or Phat/Lite?


OH nevermind, just read the first post you made.. Im about to try it on a DSL with HW 81.

get the ak2ifw_update_141x.zip from the acekard homepage and reflash your card on a ds phat or ds lite (not dsi, dsi xl or 3ds).

then wait for the acekard guys the release an update which will work on hwid44, they are working on it.

btw: your english is even worse than mine, not thought this would be possible^^

Hi

Last year about this time when the DSi XL came out i was able to use the Acekard straight away on it.

Reading these posts makes me want to wait a little longer until more stable updates are available. I am mostly interested in making the 3DS work with the 3000 odd english games i have.

I have updated an Acekard to 1.8.6 then ran the reflash software . Its all works on the DSi XL although quite a few of the more recent ROMS i.e. in the 5000+ range seem to be freezing. Looks a little more complicated to sort out . Not yet plucked up the courage to pop the card in the 3DS.

Can anyone tell me how you can tell if your Acekard is HW44 or some other code?

Load up your acekard/akaio, press start, go to "more", go to "help" and at the bottom you'll see the akaio version along with your hwid.

mine reads as; AKAIO v1.8.6 HW: 81

Please let us know if the fix posted above works. Last night I updated my Acekard with the fix(I used my Dsi XL to do it) I had already put in AKAIO 1.8.6a into it..my games were in there as well, then I went ahead and updated..everything went smoothly, it rebooted, and the card now shows up in japanese which I Have no issue with and my games work..just want to be sure when I get my 3DS system that it will work with that..I assume I did everything right..did I?

All this stuff about flash cards bricking the 3DS makes me kinda worried but since no one here has experienced anything like that its probably a bunch of BS anyway, just want to be sure I did everything correctly that I posted above. I already ordered the system from amazon.com should be here in a few days

I used the DSL version on my DSL and my HWID is 8181.

However, when the update was finished I tried it in my 3DS it had DOASU as the game and when I booted it, it said something along the lines of "Blah blah blah error occurred resort to manual"
When trying it in my DSL, DORASU is the game and it boots to a white screen. I tried removing the firmware files and putting them back on with no luck.

Well I'm happy I didn't update my bootstrap yet. Anyone have any ideas of why this is happening to people? ATM I am sticking with my XL until May so I'm going to hold off updating for now.
