my ak2i just stopped working on my dsi for no reason an hour ago, but still works in my ds lite.. the dsi can play normal games no problem, but comes up with a blank screen for the acekard and when you click on it to start it, it says an error occured to restart..

any ieas why it would suddenly stop working on the dsi but still runs on the ds lite?

its FW 1.4 as its been since it came out, and its been working no problem til an hour ago when the dsi just didnt "see the card" anymore, you can click on a blank tile where the start game button is, but then you get the dsi error to reset.. makes no sense sicne it works on the ds lite without issues

its the real acekard 2i and not a clone

Not alone in this, mine started doing this a few weeks ago. Same exact problem. It's not the contact issue that many have had with the earlier cards that were produced. I too went through that issue and am familar with how that affected the card and the "cardboard" work-arounds.
At first I thought it was a DSi problem, but it's not loading up on lites either. I really liked the Acekard 2i, it's compatibility, updates and overall user interface. However, this is the second one I've had that has had hardware failure. I hate to say it, but I'm looking into other card alternatives at this point.

    like i searched all folders
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    are you using haxchi, tiramisu or aroma?
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    yeah
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    no, I'm asking which one of them you are using
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    aroma
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    in that case, there is no such thing as homebrew launcher for aroma
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    you have to launch your homebrews directly from the wii u menu
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    there is a plugin that display them on the wii u menu, pretty sure it is enabled by default
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    so like it doesnt exist
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    yeah
    ?
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    it doesn't exist, at least not for aroma
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    ohhhhh
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    on tiramisu you can access it by opening mii maker
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    okay
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    I don't have a wii u anymore to test it myself, but if homebrews are not visible on the wii u menu I think you can press L + R + minus to open the plugin menu, there should be an option called "homebrews on wii u menu" or something similar
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    nope
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    it is L+dpad down+ select
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    but homebrew is appearing in the home menu btw
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    yes, now I remember it
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    then it is working, I also don't like that they did this but it is the only option you have if you are using aroma
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    i just didint know the homebrew launcher didint exist in aroma
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
