I bit the bullet and got the triple loader and I'm very impressed! I like it a lot, very smooth, etc. Although, I can't figure out how to enable cheats in sakura...

No problems here too, although my friend had trouble with GRID on Sakura (he was using a 4GB Sandisk).
Sakura has some problems with SDHC firmwarew it seems...

I'm using Sakura from it's release, but that's just because I watch lots of movies, and I was making a skin, so I hat to check it up all the time..
I don't have any problems with the old firmware, but I really prefer Sakura..
Its an awesome skin! I use it...

I've tried to use DSOrganize a bunch of times but it tells me to dldi patch it. So I went out and tried to figure out how to do so. So I did what I thought was going to work, and nothing did! Can anybody help me to dldi patch DSO so that I can run homebrew from it?
just put DSO in the root directory of the microsd card and boot from there
Although... The Read/Write system of DSorganize is incompatable with M3 Real so if you get it to work, things like the internet browser will curropt your card.

I got M3 real solely for the Sakura, but i have a debate of homebrew - randomly my 4Gb memory card's homebrew stops booting from sakura, homebrew cannot find DLDI anymore. Homebrew still will boot from M3 real firmware or iTouch one.

I think my case is pretty invidual one, and i say:
WINNER IS: SAKURA! *ssbb win music*

Ahhh, thanks a lot for the info. My card gets currupted now and then and I wasn't perfecty sure if I've always used DSO before it got corrupted, but I've suspected it all the time.

Well, it's actually problem with the DSO, not the flashcart, so this one will probably do good..
I stopped using DSO a while ago, because I actually didn't have any use of it, I was playing all the time..

Now I don't have time for nothing, because of the job..that sucks!!

Thanks I'll try it. Is it safe to say that I won't cause any SD card corrupten on M3reals?

Well, cycloDS has also problem of DSO corrupting it, so i tought this is same problem just on different cart. So, it has high potential that DSO birthday version will not corrupt, but i am not sure.

sandisk 4GB C2 SDHC, no problems with grid.
This and Kingston 4GB Class 4.....I use both and have NO problems with the GRID (and I'm quite enjoying it!!)

I agree, GRID is quite an excellent racer, In fact I might like it better than I did speed Racer.

But anyways, those three games all worked well when I use my 4GB Sandisk, it's quite pleasant.

Sakura. The usability is far far superior to the default firmware, and OpenTyrian works on Sakura

. Soft reset would be nice to have, but I can live without it for now.

Standard firmware until sakura is stable (at least according to the postings here). Don't have time to fiddle around - I want to PLAY!

Well, Sakura IS stable....what do you mean until sakura is stable?!
It still has some minor things to improve, but firmware itself works great, no lags, no freezing....It never failed at me..

stable?
not really.

the slightest abnormalities in the system folders can cause problems in m3sakura right now.
tough if you just avoid using wallpapers, and messing with system files, you won't have much trouble.

I was having problems with Grid with Sakura but it was because I was using a earlier hacked version. I found a more resent version and all game that were giving me problems work perfectly now, which is good cause I didn't wanna go back to using the Fireware version!

Hmmmm, it could be the thing that I never "messed" with system files, except while skinning, but I never had crash on my Sakura..
So it was pretty stable for me 'till up now..As I said, it does have it's flaws, but I wouldn't say it's unstable.....(if you try messing with any firmware, from any flash cart, you'll probably mess it up)..

I'm staying with the default firmware (3.9) until Sakura is officially launched... I want to, er, play!, DS Organize works fine for me AND I have a 8GB Sandisk card and I don't want to lose time just trying to figure out whether something does not work because of Sakura or SDHC cards...
