Hello, I have recently bought an R4 card and had to reset the whole thing due to it being time-bombed.

I have installed the right kernel, put it into the SD card root and got it to work on my DSi, but when I load up Pokémon Soul Silver it doesn't recognize the .sav file that is already present in the /Games folder and just starts a new game.

I've made some research and apparently R4 cards sometimes make "faulty" .sav files and after checking the properties of my save, I learned that it had 524,3 kB instead of the normal 512 kB.
After that, I read it in a reddit thread that this forum was good at fixing save files, can you guys help me?
Link to the save file:

What OP said about 524,3 kB, I guess it is 524,288 bytes (=512KB).
Maybe it's a problem with the file name, rename "XXX.nds.sav" to "XXX.sav".
