Today, I found this download File on the Fake-Acekard Website:
http://www.acekard.cc/download/Update_of_AK_for_DsiV1.42.zip
So: What is that? Is it just the old update file? or is it a bricker?
Is someone brave enough to test the file?

It maybe a leak or it maybe a bricker,its a risk thats for sure.Wheres haddad when you need him lol!
it is 99% only a cheap fake. But we can't be sure until someone test it.
btw. noGBA says: Cartridge can't be updated (is indeed logically)

Its definately new but its also like you say 99% chance of being fake.Who dares wins......or not!
 
ok, the manual in the package says, that you have to put BOTH files in the Root of your card.
Then you have to start the "AK2Updatefor142_v400.nds" File

1.38 kernel is out try that,they may have altered the update file too,id download both from scratch and do the update on a DSlite

SOURCE http://www.r4i-sdhc.com/downloade.asp

Thanks for all your help! Okay, I tried that and it even updated okay, now I am getting a white screen with ?MENU on it.

That normally means you have the wrong system menu DAT file,if your cart updated thats great you should be able to use it no problem,make sure you have the right kernel and you're set there was a problem with the sdhc update files and new links were put on the site,thats probably why your update wouldnt work before.

I just redownloaded the new kernel and put it on my card, just in case I had the wrong one. Still doesn't work. Still gettitn white screen with ?Menu.

it must be the wrong kernel for your cart which exact cart do you have,my friend had this same problem
 
Anyone got an update for the R4i SDHC (WiFi-updatable one) to either DSi 1.4.2 or 3DS firmware? If so can you link me to the thread it's on? I need the firmware for a friend (Why would I use an R4 of any kind when I have a Supercard DSTwo??)

It has the 1.4 mark on it, not the 1.4.2. The site says that it works for the 1.4.

Ive heard mixed reports from people with the 1.4 cart, i dont have one to test unfortunately.The 1.38 kernel should work

Screw it, I'll give it a try. Worst that could happen is that I won't be able to play Pokemon White or Puyo Pop 7 anymore. No big loss.
 
Well, after finally finding my SD card reader and transferring the file over, I got...
"AK2i FIRMWARE UPDATE (40) for BIOS 1.42
This cartridge can't be updated
."
It was worth a shot.

Get this. They said it doesn't work for the one with the 1.4 mark, even though they said it will work on their website. I can't use the card on my DSL anymore, either.
