Hacking Pandora DS Flash Card

[Niles]

Hmm, link I'm going to have to go with R4 clone, which has clearly already been established numerous of other times in this thread

I'm quite interested to see the UI, only thing I can't find on the site. But why are you going to test it on the kid's DS? Especially when they didn't even open it yet, I think everybody here can wait until the 25th or so, this way your kids won't think they got a pre-used toy, I'd be very angry at my parents if they decided to "test" my new toy before I even got to lay my hands on the packaging.

Because the kids are 6 years old, and theres nothing worse than waiting for a battery to charge, or finding out theres an issue. Plus I had to make sure the cards worked properly and were already loaded. If the kid was 14, I'd agree with you, its a different story with youngsters. They want to open and play, not open and wait for charging

or to find out theres an issue with the flash card.

Actually, the only difference between SDHC and SDXC is that SDXC will use the (poorly supported) exFAT/FAT64 filesystem by default. Assuming you can format the SDXC card as FAT32 (Windows will not format any drive above 32GB as FAT32 without third party software like fat32format/guiformat) then it should work on any existing flash cart that does not have a hard coded size limit in the firmware.

Heres a few pics, sorry for the crap quality, had to do it fast.

 

[RoMee]

lol..I can't believe you guys made this front page

anyways, it kinda look like the r4idsn gui

 

[Legaia]

Another bullshit full of crap clone card, how many os those we have to see?

 

[Another World]

yeah that is the r4i gold firmware. i front paged it so users who aren't to into this hobby will know its a fake/clone.

-another world

 

[Stevetry]

i love how the try to trick by putting a 3ds there

 

[Niles]

Its easy to use and works for the kids, so I'm not upset about it. But I do like to know if its a clone, what is it a clone of? lol. Thanks guys!

 

[Another World]

firmware confirms its an r4idsn or r4i gold re-stickered. however, they could have just purchased sources or something from r4i dsn. without pcb shots we are really only guessing at what card is under the sticker.

[Niles]

Definitely correct that its a clone of a r4idsn.

Look at these and compare the feature comparison charts:

http://www.pandora-ds.com/about.asp?id=6 (compare the bottom one)

to

http://www.r4idsn.com/about.asp

They just changed R4iDSN to Pandora. Same broken english, word for word.

I suspect its a clone of the clone R4i DSN thus allowing to it to use Wood's R4 port to the R4i DSN and have a similar GUI.

And now the site's magically offline

can it use the 64gb as they say ?

I dont have one to test it with unfortunately. Kingston 16gb class 4 is the highest Ive tried in it.

fake

There's no such thing as a 64GB SDHC. SDHC only goes up to 32GB.
If it is true that it's a R4iDSN clone, then it doesn't support SDXC, meaning that they're lying.

@niles
please post pictures of the cart it self
all i see on the website is just sticker pictures but no cart pictures

 

[Rydian]

Just checked out all the pages on the site while logging headers, no requests were made anywhere except that domain, so he trojan warning was false and likely caused by something in a different tab stevetry had open.

 

[MWisBest]

They claim it to be sold at places where it isn't sold.

AFAIK, the SDXC specification may or may not be that same for the MicroSD, so for all we know it could max out at 32GB or 64GB.

steves does not lie i did get something
