Hello, I recently bought a DSI XL, it is already firmware ver 1.4.1
I also ordered an Acekard 2Di

When I put the acekard in my dsi it come up with the acekard symbol the first time, it gave me the error message to i took it out and tried again, the second time it come up with the danny phantom symbol... I havent updated the card to 1.4 so i assume it must have been done before they sent it to me, is that right? because the danny phantom icon.
Anyway, it still gives me the same error message when i click on the danny phantom icon
An error has occurred.
Press and hold the POWER button.

I do not have a DS or DSL but as I said my card already has a danny phantom so it should already be 1.4 no?
Please help, ty.

P.S
I'm also wondering if my cart is already "bricked" I am new to all this.
I'm intending on taking my acekard down to a game shop on the highstreet and asking him to update my card on one of his dsl's, but I dont know whether to put the ak2ifw_update_141_DSL.nds or ak2ifw_update_141_DSI.nds on the mincro SD/Acekard before bringing it down there.

Yeah just received it today, thanks for the link to the guide, formatting the SD card right now, will try this out.

How do I know if my acekard is "bricked"?

I don't know. It never happened to me.

But you need to update your card to 1.4.1. Dany Phantom is the old icon.

K im just gonna take it down the market with ak2ifw_update_141_DSi.nds on the card and see if he can update it for me on a phat or lite, that link u gave me is extra, http://gbatemp.net/t231410-updating-the-ac...si-firmware-1-4 thats all i needed i think, dno what all this AKAIO stuff is about.

EDIT
can i have
ak2ifw_update_141_DSi.nds
and
ak2ifw_update_141_DSL.nds
on the same SD incase it turns out it is bricked then I can use DSL to unbrick then DSi to update... is that right?

How do you expect people to differentiate between the 'classic' AK2i and the BRAND NEW SUPER ULTRA KINGH ACEKARD 3DS Renovation III?
The difference is just the firmware.
"Acekard 3 3DS, the first Nintendo 3DS compatible flash cartridge ... Or is it? In a way it is. It can play DS roms & DSi homebrew games and run on the Nintendo 3DS. But in reality it is not much more than a modified version of the good old Acekard 2i with the firmware made compatible with Nintendo 3DS and in a packaging with a new logo. AK3DS Does not bring anything new to the table as far as NDS rom compatibility is concerned."

Anywho, got it sorted, went to the market and used an old DSphat to update it. Cheers GBATemp.

LOL i love it when you press AkNews and it directs you to GameYeeah's site.
I also love how there's a random person listening to their iPod on their front page + the fact that they photoshopped an AceKard and put a nintendo logo on top.
Fail Clone is Fail.

    also gonna install twilight menu in my r4 flashcard
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    One thing that just occurred to me.... The sound on the 2600 sucked less back then the harsh sound we hear now is from infinitely better speakers we have now, back when the 2600 was new speakers produced a almost muffled sound, like CRTs made old graphics look slightly better.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I wonder if I could recommend that to some emulation devs that perhaps the sound could use some smoothing out to simulate those old TVs
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think a few of the early systems could benefit from that, at least up to the 8 bit generation, by the 16 bit generation I think TVs had gotten a lot better in almost every way

    It's old but it's the best firmware out for DS stuff
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    it says it only works for the original R4, R4i Gold (r4ids.cn), R4iDSN (r4idsn.com) and Acekard R.P.G.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    nvm it does support mine

    Just give it a try, but honestly if you have a 3DS you can play DS games without a card just off the internal SD card
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Slightly slower loading but a bit more convenient
