Exactly what you need to do is in that thread i've already given you the link to.
Step 11. Updating the Acekard 2i's firmware.
This step is optional and only needs to performed if you want to use your Acekard 2i with a DSi which has firmware version 1.4. Even if you intend to use your AK2i with a DS Lite, it is still a good idea to perform the firmware update incase your DS Lite breaks and you later replace it with a DSi or DSi XL.
After updating, your Acekard will appear in the DSi menu as
. When used with on the DS Phat/ DS Lite, it will still appear as
in the DS menu. If you already see the
Danny Phantom icon in your DSi's menu, there is no need to perform the update.
Download the firmware update from
Here and extract the contents to the root directory of your MicroSD card. You should have two files
ak2ifw_update_14_DSi_new.nds and
ak2ifw_update_14_DSL_new.nds
ak2ifw_update_14_DSi_new.nds is used to update a single cart, and can be used on the DS Lite, DS Phat and DSi FW =< 1.3. In most cases this is the file you should use because there's less chance of anything going wrong.
ak2ifw_update_14_DSL_new.nds is used to update multiple carts and also unbrick an Acekard previously bricked by either update. It's primarly used by retailers or people who are going sell on their Acekard's. It allows you to update multiple Acekards in quick sucession without having to swap memory cards or reboot the NDS between flashings. This file only runs on the DS Lite or DS Phat because the DSi will not allow you to eject a cartridge beyond the DSi menu.
Make sure your DS is fully charged or running from mains before attempting to update the firmware. Interrupting the process flashing may cause your AK2i to become bricked.
Once the progress indicator goes past 0%, do NOT interrupt the flashing process.[/p]
Updating a Single cart:
Boot your Acekard and run
ak2ifw_update_14_DSi_new.nds
- Use ak2ifw_update_14_DSi_new.nds even if you are performing the update using a DS Lite or DS Phat. The DSL/ DSP will run both updates, while the DSi will only run the DSi update.
It will take you straight to the firmware update screen
Press (start), after the update is complete it will give you the following message:
The update is complete, you can now power off the console.
To update multiple carts or to unbrick a previously bricked cart.
Boot your Acekard and run
ak2ifw_update_14_DSL_new.nds. This can also be run on any working cart, doesn't have to be an Acekard because it's not going to update the cart you launch it on. You are just using it to get the update into the DS's memory so you can eject the cart.
After you've run it, you will get the following prompt:
Eject your cart and insert the cart you wish to update or unbrick. Press (B) and you get:
Press (start). Once the update is complete you will get the following message:
Important: If this was the only cart you wanted to update, power off now!
Do NOT press (start).
If you have another cart to flash, eject the cart and insert another. Press (start) and it will start flashing immediately, it will give no warnings, prompts or ask for confirmation. Repeat the process for as many carts as you have.
