Hacking iEDGE Bootstrap updater v4 released

[bitonio6]

EDGE confirm to me, the iEDGE is not 3DS officialy compatible!!!

regardless of what you say, or anybody else's, there's proof that some iEDGE works while some don't. no amount of denying will change that fact. nor the number of exclamation points, for that matter.

iEdge for 3DS is still in testing the current bootstraps work with some versions of 3DS but not all regions.

...that statement sounded so official. i wonder why. O.o

anyways, there you go. but i sort of doubt if region has anything to do with it. it still sounds too random for that right now, but i'll have to check the flags of those who said their iEDGE works on their 3DS.

Hey guys first post. Have been a user of the iEdge for a while, since version 1.11 (just updated to 2.3 or today).
I only have access to a laptop running linux on it so i can't run the windows bootstrap version 4 and was wondering if there been any unofficial or user created bootstrap loader for linux?

Also.. what is the benefit of updating the bootstrap? I haven't connected my DSi to the internet for a while so it is still on version 1.4 and i won't update to 1.42 until my iedge is updated... but yeah what will i benefit from the new bootstrap?

cheers

The bootstrap is simply a way to circumvent the 1.4.2 firmware code. If you update now, you will get 1.4.3 so this bootstrap update is pretty much useless.

kk cheers. no word on the new firmware and if it will add 3ds support?
if it does have the 3ds support i'll be on the market for a 3ds

Officially, the iEdge doesn't support the 3DS although we have had some cases where the 3DS ran the iEdge bootstrap v4.

I know this is a thread from the grave, but i have got a iEdge card and have tried to use the Bootstrap updater v4 with the embedded rom file, the process appears to go ok on the PC side of things but when i insert the sd card and iedge back into my DS Lite and power on all i get is a white screen and theres no blinking led on the iEdge!. Any ideas whats going on?
