Hacking Help about R4i card firmware

[beko]

Every R4 on the market is a fake R4, even the R4 1:1 clones are technically fake. The real R4 team died years ago and the brand name was picked up by countless teams to cash in the popularity of the cart.

Also for the OP, you might also be able to use Retro's files

First delete the .sav of games that do not start.
Try it, with v1.5 + add the contents of the R4-Clone folder (Retrogamefun)
Boot your carts Kernel (v1.5), then load YSMenu.nds (It should work) and load the game.

Yeah, had the same issue very recently.

Try out the YSMenu. It gets around the old firmware so the timebomb on your cart doesn’t go off.

You must patch it with a R4DS.dldi file.
I can't find them for you right now, because you may have to dig up some archives, but once you have them, all you have to do is patch them.

I found this thread:
http_s://github.co_m/ntrteam/flashcart_core/issues/48
which then directs you on this:
http_s://github.co_m/ntrteam/flashcart_core/issues/102
it is said that it can be the same card.

Do you want to try only with these files? Kernel flashcard GEi4.2 + YSMenu.
Boot your R4, then load YSMenu.nds and load the game.
Good luck

I found it!
If you're still interested, this is the original kernel (R4i) of vvv.r4i.ndsi.in

Thanks! I'm from 2022 and have R4i Revolution for NDS too. Your original Kernel works on my flash-card, what looks like beko's, but without "hills" at right and left sides. Ah, and my R4 supports cards for 8 Gb, but I'm not sure that my R4 is original. Well, finally I got it!

By the way, version 1.50 on my card starts, but after choosing NDS-games both screens become white. As someone said here, probably games need a highter version of kernel or something else. Anyway, now I use kernel from GEiv4.2-archive (look at my list of working kernels) and I'm happy.

There are 3 archives from this topic (for knowledge what are working) and photos of my card:
