Hacking DSi xl powers off instead of sleep mode

[cojobe]

Everytime i close my dsi xl it turns off.. The back is pretty hot when i have ben using it for awhile.. but i doubt it as anything to do with it.. Anyone else have dis problem, how did u fix it?

 

[Rydian]

Does it do it with normal game carts?

 

[BobTheJoeBob]

Are you sure it hadn't just ran out of battery? How many times has this happened?

It could be a possible contact issue.
Try something like this.

He said "the DS turns off"
Not "the DS freezes"

I know what he said. I think I've heard around in some discussions that bad contacts can cause the DS to switch off like this.
It was a symptom of my old M3i Zero, both of them. Never tried the paper trick on that though since I gave them away in no time.

Uhh... My DSi XL stays cool after an hour of gameplay (playing it on desk). Not sure this hotness is normal.

 

[cojobe]

Yes,it may be the battery, it turn off on every game after i close it.. not only on the acekard. bit this never happened untili got the acekarrd 2i... and yea... it gets so hot i cant keep my hand on for 15 or so seconds...

 

[cojobe]

this didnt happen as soon as i got it... it was fine for a month,idk what happened

Multiple times, everytime i close it...

 

[Slyakin]

I'd send it to Nintendo. It could be a bad battery problem, and not the fault of your cart.


Although you may want a new cart. Who knows what it's doing.

 

[cojobe]

Do they sell batterys online somewhere for the dsi xl?

 

[cojobe]

HEllow?

 

[Clookster]

Yes. Nintendo.com - Call them, and they'll send you new batteries.

LOL!! IT WAS THE SD CARD!! xDDDD

 

[ShadowSoldier]

Dude don't double/triple post.

The SD card was shutting your DSi XL off? That doesn't sound right... nor should it happen. I have a SD card in mine, and it doesn't shut off.

And the heat, that's normal. Depending on how hot. I play mine for a couple hours at a time, and the back is usually warm. But SD card shutting off your DSi XL? Might want to get that looked at...

 

[cojobe]

Not the one in my acekard, just the one in the system, i took it out and it had a big dent, after i took it out the ds worked fine

 

[ShadowSoldier]

No I know what you mean. I have an SD card in mine, doesn't turn off. I can't see how that dent in the SD card could do something...

But oh well, if you got the problem fixed.
