Hacking AceKart 2.1 Inside View!

[DjoeN]

Ok, this is a long post with alot of pictures!

(THIS is NOT a REVIEW; just some things i like to share!)

from the mail i recieved from AK Team after recieving a review sample:

1. This is a new version of the AceKard 2. called AceKard 2.1.
2. Packaging and PCB is different.
3. More stable and resolves the "FAT ERROR" issue.
4. uses less power from the battery.
5. Latest Firmware has more options and can be downloaded from: http://www.acekard.com

What i myself include:
QUOTE6. OS can be upgraded on the DS itself through Wi-Fi with OsUp (uses Homebrew software on your TF)

Ok, here we go:

I didnt learn a heck of a lot myself, but might be helpful for those that dont already own one of these. Thanks for a nice post.

How long does it take to download/install AKAIO using OsUp? Does OsUp keep your settings (globalsettings.ini), cheats, and skins when you upgrade to a new version?

It's a really long download, about 4 KB/s.
Yes i'm pretty sure it keeps your skins and cheats, not sure about the settings.
