[Necron]

Lol, Kotaku has just opined on the latest DSi update.
It's kinda funny to see how the outside world views 'the scene'.

R4ids.cn has released their 1.4.2 update patch today.

http://www.r4ids.cn/r4i-download-e.html

Scroll down to kernel updates.

Looks like they have a Nintendo DS Lite version and a Nintendo DSi version. I'm pretty sure the DSi version is run on a 1.4.1 or older DSi that didn't get the update yet. I don't have a DSi but I'm going to update anyways. You never know and I have plans to get one at a later date.

EDIT: FYI - Looks like it may report no update needed on first try. Just turn off the DS eject, reinsert then reboot. The trick may actually be to press A without ejecting and reinserting first and letting it fail first try. After it failed I then ejected and reinserted and pressed A again and it started updating after that. Also it will let you update again if that is something you want to do... >.< At no point should you turn off the DS during the update process or the cart will be bricked. You can recover but you need another R4iDS Gold cart to boot the updater first.

The iSmart MM got his 1.4.2 fix also. Fish Tycoon is kept.

R4iDSN has found bug with the former V1.4.2 patch. They just released a new V1.4.2 patch.
Those who got white screen after updating with success, can download this new V1.4.2 patch.

Yeah mimick, it's not a suprise to see the iplayer getting this fix too.
The iSmart MM is based on its hardware.

BTW, i forgot to post the link to the ismm update in my last post, here it is : http://www.ismartds.com/kernel-ismart-mm/1...-13th-2011.html

The R4iDSN patch had a second revision, might want to link to it (or the filetrip version, which I've updated/replaced). The R4i Gold's second version should be coming out in a bit.

The r4igold.cc card will get a update too!

Last night my boyfriend was trying to surprise me by adding points on dsishop. He updated my system and now my iedge card doesn't work. He tried to restore the system so I didn't figure out what he did and now I have to redownload all my dsiware (even the ones on sd card won't work) and restart all the games. He was well intentioned but still I am a little upset. Oh well...now he is not allowed to touch my dsi.

And here I thought that Nintendo was done with the DSi, guess I was wrong.. Well I can't play my DSi anymore, so I'll stick to my Lite.

You can play DS games and flash carts without updating.
