Translation...?

And you don't have an R4. You have a cheap, low-quality clone of the original R4DS.
I have a recommendation: Get an AceKard 2i or a SuperCard DSONEi

I assume you mean boot an .nds file from the game icon on the official 1.18 firmware? I know you can encrypt .nds files into a _DS_Menu.dat file but I think it only works with firmwares that have been designed to work from this method. A much easier method is to rename the .nds file you want to load to _DS_MSHL.nds which will load from the middle button

He could have an original R4 and telling him to get a better cart isn't as helpful as you may think

you can replace the menu entirely using r4crypt and encrypting the nds file to replace the bootmenu. I am not sure about the game icon. I think it is part of the menu dat. Best method is probably the one described above. Use the middle icon.

I suspect the true question is: can I have another firmware boot games from "game" icon within R4's GUI?
Please refer here, if this is accurate - http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=193749

Well, Actualy I want to use the Game ICON to boot Dscovered.nds. Dscovered.nds is made by Spinal.

This is what I really want.

Game Icon - Boot Dscovered.nds
Multimedia - Boot Moonshell2


Is there any way I can do it?

Now that wasn't so hard was it?
Have you tried to ask the guy directly threw his homebrew thread? After all, he made it - he knows what it can/can't do.
Note: I'm pretty sure this question had already been posted in that thread and answered (could've even been you, for all I know).
