Take a DSi compatable card and tweek it till it works, after all thats really all they did to make the DSi compatable cards it the first place... they got a normal flash cart that worked on ds but not dsi and tweeked away till it worked. Now it'll be easier cos they've made cards with firmware updateable hardware

Not as easy as it seems, you still need to figure out how nintendo blocked the flashcards to make the upgradable hardware go to work. First of all you'll need a person to create a NAND reader of some sort that can read the firmware right out of the NAND memory. Then you'll need to decrypt it into something usable. After that you look at how they blocked it and create a workaround. This is simple in idea form, but is actually difficult,so it could take a few weeks to a month. Currently, like Da bomb said, there is someone that is working on a way to read directly from the nand memory with software in that way, but it might not be released, Because he doesnt want it to fall into piracy's hands (not like i support piracy xD) But hopefully someone does release a program like that so we can actually make the flashcards usable again for homebrew,movies,music, etc

. Plus it'll make those stuff much easier. Everything's possible, so just wait.

That explains all
wow so proud of ezflash team.
I hope they make a new firmware for the ezflash and it would be awesome

Why are you suddenly so proud of them? I mean the cheap r4i team made a quick r4i gold that gets around 1.4 but you don't seem to want to buy that.

People really need to stop liking products cause their first at stuff, the ez flash vi still sucks and the m3i zero and the ak2i are still better and popular than it all that's changed is that they can use it on 1.4 and soon all carts will be able to do that and plus I don't even think they released the actual fix yet just a video. So it could have easily been a fake or hardware change.
