Nowadays all flashcarts are fakes, namely Chinese clones of older original versions; this does not mean that they are not efficient and useful. Instead you did wrong to try random firmwares: this is the best way to brick your r4. I don't understand why people don't look for online availability of its firmware first, and only then buy that flashcart.

This could be a problem with the MicroSD formatting, try formatting it to FAT32 and change the size to 32KB! (Backup your games!)
