Hacking R4i 3DS SDHC compatibility

[Butch]

Hi there, I am a new member but I've been keeping up with the forum for a while, one thing I found was that it was pretty hard to find was a confirmation from someone running 2.1.0-4E on their 3DS and the R4i 3DS SDHC flashcart working properly with its latest update (1.43 I believe).
So I took a dive anyway, as I wanted to get in with this Ambassador program (which ends tonight and not last night I hope!), updated my own 3DS from 1.0.0E (?), the firmware it came with, straight to 2.1.0-4E through internet update, and the R4i 3DS is still working as it was before the update.

In short, this flashcart is compatible with the latest Nintendo update, in Europe.
This news may be present elsewhere in the forums, but I'll tell you what, if it is, it's damn hard to find.

Thanks for the info, but i believe on the website for it, it says supports all 3DS versions perfectly.

Mmmmmm no, don't think so...

http://www.r4i-sdhc.com/ yeah?

Doesn't say that anywhere.

So you're saying you just updated to 2.1.0-4 and just copied the 1.43 firmware files into the R4 3DS SDHC and it worked without doing anything else? I don't want to update because I don't have a second DS to flash the flashcart in case it stops working and it's really difficult indeed to find reliable confirmation.

No that won't work, I followed the instructions on the website - downloading latest kernel, putting it on micro SD, updating within the R4 software on original 3DS firmware.
I updated the R4i 3DS FIRST! Sorry if that wasn't clear!
