Hello there, I recently bought a 2DS and was looking for some help regarding a R4 cart for it.

I haven't used any kind of DS for a while but I do have my old R4 which is a R4i V1.4.

I was just wondering can I use this on my 2DS and is there any working firmware for it.

If not could anyone recommend a card I could use, thank you for any help.

I apologise for a condescending question but have you actually put the R4i card into the 2DS to see if it actually works?
This, then report us what happened.

Besides, you don't have any kind of CFW in your 2ds or whatsoever? If yes, you could patch TWL_FIRM for boot DS blocked cards, or just use Luma 3DS that patch it automatically.

Hi, Yes I have tried this, It shows up with star wars lethal alliance, however when I click it , it says An error has occurred.

Hi, No I don't have any kind of custom CFW on the 2ds,

Thanks.

Yeah, sounds most likely that your R4i was one of the wave of flashcarts that Nintendo disabled via firmware update. Unless the company is still around and provided the files to bypass this block (not likely) then I would forget about using it on a 2DS and get this one instead:

They do accept paypal but make sure you follow the instruction when you buy it so that you can email the payment. 2 weeks is how long it took for mine to arrive.

I see, thank you for the heads up :)

No problem, i uploaded those firmwares,and i accept request in case you do need an special one.
just post a picture of your card and ill uploaded it ASAP.

Hey again I tried the one inside the folder, R4i - 1.4.5-1.4 [2016] which looks the most like my card image, however it didn't work.

My card is like this,
R4I-SDHC-GE.jpg

Thanks, if all else fails, I guess I will have to get a new card :)
