Good morning everybody.

Reading through this excellent Forum sadly found no Solution for my little trouble:

I´m using a blue Nintendo DSi with Unlaunch 1.4 and HiyaCFW.Following the Installation from the site dsi.cfw.guide.
Perfect,works !!
DSi Ware Games,Emulators works
but no DS Game....
Got the famous white Screen....the LED shows YELLOW and then turns off (use the WIFI LED).Means Game is non compatible ?? ROM is a bad Dump ?? Need AP Patch ?? No i don´t think so...

I´ve trying many Bootstraps (when a new Twilight Update is out then also updating the Bootstrap when some new is released) but only ONE works.In the Twilight Menu Ver 6.5.0 it shows Release v0.12.3 -r1 but this can´t be right.The one in use is the attached one.

So when ALL works with this where is the Problem ?
The Fact is NO SDK 5 Game is running with this Version.White Screen and LED stay YELLOW.When pressing shortly START the DSi reboots.
And New Super Mario Bros. tells me "Could not erase data.Turn the power off and reinsert the Game Card." Trying to insert a DS Game or a Flashcard,no changes..

Thank you for reading and your time.Any help from you is a gift for me. :yay3ds:

Thank you.
I´ve reading it before,but i think this was not the right Thread because Games are working except SDK5.
When its easier for the Forum/Users the Threads can be merged.Excuse me for the extra effort and expense.:shy:

After testing variuos bootstrap versions the above attached one leaves as the only that works....:sad:

But Problems with Twilight 6.5.0........i had a white screen,the Wifi Led turns off for 1 sec. and then stay yellow,the Dsi is frozen.After holding POWER for few seconds it turns off.When i started/reboots then no Game is working/starting anymore. ???

I´ve made a backup from the SD Card before the crash,recover it,now its ok for the moment now.No idea what happend.The Dsi had no crashes before the Twilight Update to 6.5.0.i´m little confused.

Do you have Unlaunch 1.8 installed?

Update unlauch to 1.8 works everthing ok,Games that worked BEFORE are also ok.Thank you very much !!

BUT the bootstrap thing is still on.....:cry:

Tried v0.12.3 Rev 01 no success.Everything is like before,SDK5 Games still not starting,sometimes DSi freezes with white Screen,sometimes i can reboot by short pressing POWER.Sometimes the WiFi LED goes out,sometimes it flickers one short Time and then stays yellow.

And the New Super Mario issue is sadly still on ("Could not erase data.Turn the power off and reinsert the Game Card.")

I´ll have here a Package of Dsi Ware .nds (for Example Dr.Kawashimas Brain Jogging TID: KNDV and Game and Watch Game Mario´s Cement Factory TID: KGFO ,they tells me when i´m pressing "Y" these are SDK ver:5 (TWLSDK) and THEY are RUNNING !!! But only with the above attached bootstrap Version.No other Version.

Thank you.:)

Try formatting your SD card to FAT32 with 32kb cluster size.

Thank you for the advise,i´ll tried by the way 3 different SD-Cards.Try to first format it with the SD Formatter like here in the Forum said,then FAT 32 with 32kb Cluster (the SD Card was formatted this way before.).I have still the vague suspicion,it has something to do with it (i know similar issue(s) from the Gamecube/SD Gecko.At that time it WAS the SD Card.
Any suggestions which Brand (i´ve use Kingston,No Names,Samsung,SanDisk and Intenso).

I´ll have an "virgin" Backup from the Day when i do the HiyaCFW Mod etc. with nothing on it.Put in on the Sd Card and then I update to Twilight 6.5.0. with included bootstrap(s).

Everything is like on my first Post nothing has changed. *sigh*
Slowly but surely i´m running out of options.Unfortunately this is my only DSi with Flipnote.The other DSi´s (XL´s) haven´t it on (or EA Sudoku etc.) for that i can make Compares/Tests.

Thank you :)

Good morning Forum.:)

After reading this Thread

https://gbatemp.net/threads/help-wh...on-twilight-menu-hiyacfw.522616/#post-8373560

I´ve got the solution.
As i wrote before i´m using Unlaunch 1.4 then i´ve been advised by the great Robz8 to update to 1.8.
In 1.4 i haven´t found any Options to configure the Startup behavior thats it.I never make use of the "X" Button or any other when Unlaunch/DSi Menu ++ or Twilight boots.
In 1.8 changing "Start without Button" from "TWILIGHT" to "HIYACFW".Simple but effective.

Great,all bootstraps now works includes the New Super Mario issue.:yay3ds:

Thank you for your great help, Robz8 !! Keep on on your Great work.:grog:
with kind regards from Austria,thank you.
