Hacking [Info Thread] Kingmax Micro SD 2gb

[AKUC]

I recently picked up a R4 and instead of getting one of the "Japanese" microSD cards, I decided to test out a "Taiwanese" brand just for kicks. I tried Castlevania: POR and it worked fine without any crashing or freezing.

Just wanted to let you all know. Will add this info into the memory wiki.

BTW I used the 1.14 firmware for the R4 and I have the newest version.

I'm using a Sandisk 128mb card for now and I have no issues with either Castlevania games, and its from China.

[UPDATE]: After playing for a day, I turned off my DS to change games and the card died. Wasn't able to read it on a computer or a camera.

Exchanged it for a Sandisk 2.0gb Card (Also got a Japanese Kingston 2.0gb as well, but I'll post more results)

Stupid cheap kingmax~

A question regarding to
Is problem of 2GB Japanese Kingston related to a specific card(s) like R4 or it just have problems with some specific games?

In other words, Will CastlevaniaoR (or possibly other games or future releases) having problems in R4 mean that they have such problems with other cards such as Cyclo or DSTT too?

He didn't have a problem with a Kingston Japanese card. It was a Kingmax Taiwanese card.
