Pokemon White & Black Fully functional Tutorial.

UPDATE: INDEED, The US GAMES WORK, BUT YOU HAVE TO PATCH IT DIFFERENTLY, ONCE PATCHED JUST FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS AS IF THEY WHERE THE JP VERSIONS.

OK, for the past two days people been struggling for making Pokemon White/Back functional on their R4 SDHC.
Today, with a special thanks to Aurionfox, and anyone else who contribited to this finding, i will be posting this tutorial with the means of helping those who haven't had any luck booting eather Pokemon White/Black on their R4 SDHC.

First of all *links to ROMS are not allowed* so don't ask.

Things you will need
1.- Pokemon Black/White rom. (Don't ask, Google is your friend).
2.- Rudolph patch for the freezes.
3.- Lunar Ips for Exp fix.
4.- Desmume emulator.
5.- PC and R4SDHC.
6.- Official kernel 1.34
7.- microSD (2g recommended) (Anything greater than 2g gave me problems, feel free to try)

First this works with a R4SDHC, but if you have another one feel free to try it. (R4SDHC Only tested)

Download bellow (it has everything you need)

1.- Get a clean pokemon white or black rom (Dont't ask)
1.jpg

2.- Extract the contents of Pokemon Fix R4SDHC and First use the *Patch Black Fix* or *Patch White Fix* this is for Freezes. (included on Download link)

Patch the version you want using the corresponding Patch.(In this case pokemon Black)

3.- Now use the IPS patcher for the Experience AP (Included on Download link)

Use the correct IPS patcher corresponding on your version (In this case Pokemon Black)

4.- Once patched start the games using Desmume emulator, Start the Patched rom you created and save before you get your PKMN, Once you save you can close the emulator.

5.- Copy everything that is on The *SD* folder to the root of your microSD.

12.- Boot your rom, it should freeze with two white screens.

14.- Find your rom again, press (Y) again, then (Y) again, but this time change your save type to 512kb. Then press (A) to save.

15.- Boot your rom, this time it will work. Play a little bit and then save. If you boot your rom again and try to load it will erase your save file. (a blue screen with letters will show). If that shows you did it right.

16.- Now Go on your PC and connect yor microSD and find your save and erase it.

17.- Now find your RAM folder in the emulator, it should have a *ROMNAME*.dsv
21.jpg
22.jpg


18.- Now copy *ROMNAME*.dsv to the same folder you have your room on your microSD and change the file extension from .dsv to .sav
23.jpg


If for some reason when you load the .sav file on your R4 SDHC and it gives you a black screen, try using R4 Save Converter.

Or try this save and see if it works for you. Created by Aurionfox.

20.- Press (Y) twice and change the save type from 512kb back to *unknown/auto* then press (A) to save.

And if that doesn't work try putting 64M instead of auto/uknown. Some people claimed it worked for them.

If you did it right, it should boot and you will be able to save, gain EXP and no freezes. Enjoy

*NOTE*Note to anyone finding their character frozen when loading their save: When loading your game you'll be asked a question, select the bottom answer and then the first one. This turns off the C-Gear, if it's on you'll be unable to move.
Example:
Press No, then yes.

He's basically saying "use your patched pokemon rom with a savefile made in desmume". Seems like the problem with some clones is they can't create/detect savefile size for the rom.

I'm having a problem.

For this, I decided to use my 2GB Kingston made in Japan Memory Card instead of my 8GB SDHC Sandisk Main Card, and I put the latest firmware on the card after formatting it to FAT 32, but when I turn the DS on, the R4 loads but gets stuck on 'Loading', I.E. I get the Nintendo DS Start Up Screen Jingle and then it gets stuck on a loading screen.

What should I do?

Okay, I booted WAIO.NDS and it wouldn't let me bood Woodr4dldi.nds, so I pressed B and it said my SD card could no longer be read and now my R4 card won't work at all. Both of my DSes don't read it.

Any ideas why?

I've gotten the ROM to boot, but during the opening dialogue it always freezes very quickly. I've patched the ROM with Rudolph's patch and the IPS patch given. Help?

This has completely killed my R4.

Any ideas on how to fix?

Both of my memory cards, AKA my 8GB and 2GB aren't being read by my R4. I haven't modifed my 8GB since I messed around with this tut and my 2GB one.

Any idea what has happened? This is rather urgent because my R4 seems to have died.

Try completely deleting everything off of your SD card and then redownloading the kernel from the R4 website. If that doesn't fix your problem then I'm clueless.
