It'd be nice if the N5 firmware could be used on the R4

LOL!!! THE N5 HAS BEET THE R4 for the second time!

Silly question, but, do the N5 still have a risk of bricking your DS?

Can I use the N5 firmware on a R4?

I think they can still blow fuses, the dealextreme forum doesn't say anything about them being fixed or anything.

I thought that blowing fuses was based on Hardware of the N5.

Anyways, team N5 is kicking Team R4's ass. Wow. I though I would never see this day come.

I would also like to know if it is possible to use this firmware on an R4.
Don't really want to test...

Your talking about a still updated clone beating a dead original. That's not much of a comparison. it's sad to see you guys hating the R4 so much. You say it's dead and yet you guys bring it up whenever you can to put it down. I'm not a fanboy, but I feel that you guys are so critical of the R4.

Why wouldn't you be able to use this on the R4? Just encrypt it and go.

The N5s hardware problem is related to the SD slots pins being too long and poking into the pcb after ??? times of inserting the microsd card.

there is a fix, this post has a link to more info and the other R4 knockoffs

@iq_132: the _DS_MENU.DAT of this and some other R4 knockoffs is already encrypted (so far the ones that include the extra DAT file). Oh, and for some reason the R4 injektor crashes on these (encrypted or not)
