Thanks for having the time to reply me.

I don't have Flipnote studio to use Hiya CFW :(

And Gateway blue card isn't able to save and there's no workaround that, is that correct?
Yes, so you'll have to wait 'til bootstrap works on flashcards.
So, my only option is to buy another flash cartridge if I want DSi games on my Nintendo DSi, correct?
Is the SuperCard DSTwo the best one?
Yes.

On flashcards, you can run DS games, but not DSi-exclusive games.

Try restarting DSiMenu++.
I've tried that and also when I launch the dsiware it sends me to the home menu too (3DS)

Tried following this guide:

Q1: Why is my 3DS/2DS stuck on black screen when launching DSiMenu++?
Q2: Why is my 3DS/2DS powering off when launching DSiMenu++?
A: TWL_FIRM might've somehow got corrupted.
Follow this guide to fix the issue: (...can't post the link...)

But unfortunately it didn't work. Maybe I did something wrong? Did check if I missed a .cia file, but no. Could it be I have something installed on my 3DS thats messing something up? (TWLoader?) I have a New 3DS if that's important.

Thanks for taking your time!

Q: Why do I get a white screen when trying to load a game from SD Card?
A: Please note that not all games work from SD Card yet. Check the list above.
If it's listed as compatible, try again.
If you're a DSi user, Please check the LED set in DSiMenu++ settings.
  • WiFi/Camera: If it's on, that means it's loading from the ROM. If it's off for a while, and the screen is still white, that means the game is unsupported.
  • Power: If it's purple, that means it's loading from the ROM. If it's blue (or red) for a while, and the screen is still white, that means the game is unsupported.
Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I really dont know how to install SudokuHax or any other DSiWare Exploit. I do have both DSi Browser and Flip Note on my v1.4.1U DSi. Im trying to use the "Lenny ugopwn" exploit for FN, since DSiMenu++ doesnt boot at all while using the original ugopwn. With Lenny it boots and I can use DSi Homebrew, like fwtool and hbmenu, but im not able to play any nds roms. My question is: Does this have to do with exploit compatibility? And if so, is there a possibility that in the (nearby) future you could make DSiMenu++ compatible with more DSi Exploits (including one of these ones)?

The FAQ you're displaying is related to DS ROM compatibility.

Also, both Lenny and ugopwn use MiniTWLPayload, so DS ROMs won't work.
Follow this guide to install CFW, and then you'll have the ability to run DS ROMs through DSiMenu++.

My biggest problem is that my DSi doesnt have the "Data Management" option on the system menu, which is aparently required for any nand modding (apparently for nand decryption or something like that). Also, is CFW required for running nds games?

Also I forgot to quote the Exploit compatibility list, this is why i imagined DsiMenu++ had compatibility issues with Lenny or something like that:
Compatible DSiWare exploits for nds-bootstrap, without CFW
They use GenericTWLPayload.
  • sudokuhax
  • fieldrunnerhax
  • grtpwn

If you're on a FW lower than 1.4.5, then please update, and then launch DSi Shop, and exit it.
If you're already on 1.4.5, then you'll need to hardmod you DSi.

Not really, though it is recommended, since there are some issues if not using CFW to run DSiMenu++.

Thanks!:D I was starting to think I wasnt gonna be able to find a tutorial like this. Im still afraid of flashing my nand, but at least i actually know what to do now, instead of just following a random tutorial from over 2 years ago that isnt even in english!

    @SylverReZ, I also heard one of the Prince of Persia games was so unfinished that it required the "24/7 online" drm so a puzzle could be done and the game could be finished. And that when the Ubisoft servers were closed the (cracked) game was impossible to finish or something like that

    I never knew about it at the time but a fixed version was available but you had to mail in your broken copy lol
