AKAIO 1.7

[GreatCrippler]

AK2i... (E) version is a good idea. I will try it. And yes, my US version still freezes too.

Give it a try, tell me if it works please.

The (U) version didn't work for me, even after re-formatting and the firmware updated.

Did you try formatting your card? Give it a try. Then download a fresh copy of AKAIO 1.7 and download it.

If you look on page 10-11 of this thread, there's talk of the yellow DMA, if that doesn't help

Try posting your issue in that thread as well.

Hooray! Sounds like the team put lotsa effort into this new release. Long live AKAIO!

Also someone mentioned previously GHOST i think that the wifi update didnt work, I can confirm that when I tried to update the loader it white screened after download completed. Then I couldnt load any .nds it would just whitescreen. Manually D/L and replace loader got everything working again.

And finally wish the same DMA modes worked on the RPG cause I just tried my SD card in another ak2i 1.7 and the difference was unbelievable. ak2i was split second loads (it seemed so fast) and the yellow DMA mode seemed to run games I tried (animal crossing etc) very nicely. Respect.

AKRPG loader on download page had a different CRC but a prior timestamp of a couple of hours from the one in the release. It try it twice and from a fresh install and after trying again a Wifi upgrade not only was the screen frozen but the partition table was dead ( I did several tests and even SD formater2 fails to format, Win version of Testdisk freezes and a couple of others tools were unable to format or recover anything. I stressed when Gparted on Ubuntu was unable to repartition too. I had to use Victoria Tools with a backup passport to recover and later Testdisk Linux & SD Formater 3 beta to format) ... I survive ;-)

I've got no such Wifi issues for anything else and I had check twice before upgrading ( I did not use old fat homebrew, DSO or games like JWTB..). Perhaps just a faded memory problem on write operations.

It is not the first time that Wifi update fails for RPG on my side ( I've got random issues with it on the past sometime in works sometime not at all with frozen screens ). Perhaps just the shitty Nand ... If someone can post his clean partiton details for an RPG ( cylinders clusters etc with a log report from a disktool like Testdisk ) I will try some others tests and fill a report. If you already format your nand with something ... forget about it. ( read How to Damage a FLASH Storage Device

)

It seems to me - just a feeling - that AKAOI RPG 1.7 is faster then the previous release but not as quick as WOOD RPG so far ...

AS POSTED IN A DIFFERENT THREAD


I had the exact same problem (yellow 'LOADING', then blank white screen) as described in this thread - and one thing I've noticed is that multiple users have stated that a fresh install of AKAIO on their respective card has resolved the problem (outside of clone cards). So.... it's a setting issue.

And I found the setting: 'Cheat code usage'

Test 1
- Known working homebrew .nds file
- AKAIO 1.6 RC2
- 'Cheat code usage = DISABLED'
- RESULT: working

Test 2
- Known working homebrew .nds file
- AKAIO 1.7
- 'Cheat code usage = DISABLED'
- RESULT: NOT WORKING (stuck @ white screen after yellow "LOADING")

Test 3
- Known working homebrew .nds file
- AKAIO 1.7
- 'Cheat code usage = ENABLED'
- RESULT: working


NOTE: None of the above required any reformatting or updating of any loaders. This SDHC was formatted about 3-4 months ago and all I did this morning (much earlier before seeing this post) was mount the SDHC, delete the _aio directory, and copy over the NEW 1.7 _aio directory. I then went through and set things up the way I desired, not knowing I would encounter this issue by doing so.

I'm having a couple problems with 1.7.

First, when I load KH:358/2 or Megaman ZX, I can't load my old file, and it's making me make a new one. When I plug my MicroSD card into my computer, there are 2 files with the same name and extension, so I still have my old file, and a new one that it made. Some games can still load the old save though, but not all.

Second, when I choose another Skin, the time and calender doesn't work anymore (only shows the pictures, no numbers anything).

Anybody else have these 2 problems? (Didn't read the last 14 pages)

Well, isn't this nice. I tried deleting the new save of KH: 358/2, and it ended deleting both files (new and old). Looks like I have to start a new game...

First of all thanks to the Akaio team for a new firmware

But i still have a problem: when playing "my japanese coach" it starts the game but stuck on loading screen (in game). i think its the point where it reads the save files.. anyone got an idea? =(

Have you tried formatting?
If it tries to save before you've even played, try looking for it in your game folder and delete it, then try it after you format it.

That means it's either autoplay or you're not removing it properly lol
When you insert your SD adapter, a little USB symbol with a green checkmark should pop up on the right in the quicktray, right click it and click on Eject removable device.

 

[Alex666]

I know that xD
Did it correctly all the time

anyway this sucks, never touch stupid DS again!
