Hacking Is Acekard 2i good?

[Jakob95]

I know for sure that Gamekool.com Acekard 2i's are not clones. I just asked them right now for them to test there latest batch off Acekards on AKAIO 1.6 and they were working perfectly on it. Didn't ask about Acekard 2.1.

Been thinking about getting one myself, and I read this in the akaio faq..
"Should I buy an Ak2.1 or an AK2i?
Please first be aware that Nintendo has blocked the use of the AK2i's current exploit on the 1.4J firmware update. Current DSi kits should be purchased with this in mind. If you only have a DSi then use/purchase the AK2i. If you currently do not have a DSi, it is strongly recommended that you wait. As of right now none of the DSi specific functions (Games, DSi-ware, features, etc) have been hacked. There is a strong possibility that the encryption may never be hacked. Make your informed purchases carefully. As of 12/01/09 the current build of the AK2.1 shows some serious flaws. The official firmware and AKAIO will not function correctly on them. Team Acekard has privately commented by saying that the kits appear to be real and not cloens and they are not sure what the problem is. Finally the AK2i does suffer from Hardware build problems. Their appear to be a large amount of contact and microSD slot issues."

Is the hardware problems a common issue?
Also, is dealextreme decent to order from? I know it takes a long time to ship, but that's not a problem with me.

deal extreme don't have long times for shipping for me (probly cause i live australia) it only took 4 days for my order to arrive at my house after hk post said it was shipped

I can vouch for it. I have 4 carts

r4 (and clones never get one

)

Edge

DSTT

ak2i

acekard is truly a great cart especially with akaio

 

[JLW]

Wouldn't it be possible to just put the Acekard into a pc and update it there ?

Only if your PC has a NDS cartridge slot. I know mine doesn't.

It doesnt!?

I thought everyone has one....

Good but not great. The Cyclo is really great I'm playing HG/SS today with no crashing.

are you saying that the acekard 2i crashes when playing HG???
AND that cyclo DS is so pricey!
The acekard is a great budget card with a fair price but the features are very good.
---------------------
But I think the Supercard ds two will be a tough acekard rival

I like how this was necroposted. CycloDS isn't pricey at all, it costs a little more than a HG/SS game. It has many more features, so it's worth it. I used to have one before I bought my DSi.

I just traded my clone R4 + 5 bucks for Acekard 2i today.
It's very good

that was quick my friend..
this morning you were complaning about it and now you are using ak2i
COOL!

are you using akaio?

 

[Rei7]

I'm using the original firmware. I'm really not sure if I should use Akaio or the official one.

I did ask tk_saturn for his opinion.

why is acekard GREAT because AKAIO

official =

EDIT: just bump around this forum you will read many praises about AKAIO

 

[Rei7]

Your absolutely correct. I just read this thread > AKAIO vs. Official Firmware

It is obvious that Akaio is 100x better then the official one.

Thanks for the suggestion. Have to sleep now will test Akaio tomorrow.

 

[Tim 13]

I have to be honest, I didn't really see much of a difference between the official and AKAIO. The only thing I really see different is that the new Wario Ware game, which didn't work on official, works now. Everything else seems identical. *shrug*

 

[Infinite Zero]

Wait, so I need a DS!? All I have is a dsi!

Well, you might have to borrow a friends DS quick, if you can...

Oh wait, the site I got it from says...
*Updated - Compatible with DSi Firmware 1.4
