Hi, I bought a R4i v. 1.4.2 from r4issdhc.com long time ago and I would know if I can upgrade it to work with the DSi FW 1.44. Could you please send me the files?

Please don't say 'buy a better card': I have a SCDS2 but I want to use my R4, too.

the files are on there website

heres the link tho

r4issdhc.com/kernel/Firmware%20upgrade.rar

if the files dont work your card will never work on the latest firmware
I think that they changed the "original card" from r4i-sdhc.com to r4ids.cn. Maybe a renamed updatefile from r4i-sdhc.com would work.

It was my first card that worked (after a broken R4i-sdhc). I will never buy again a R4 like that. In 2011, they linked to the skins of r4i-sdhc.com and I think that they said that it is the original one.

I tried the update on a ds lite, it worked (the update progress) - and got a white screen. Now I only get a whitescreen (or better two whitescreens) and nothing more. Is there a way how I can fix it again?
You'll need another flash cart to start the update program, then swap it out for the bricked one and tell it to apply the update.

I have another flashcard (that's not the problem) but which *.nds does I need? The latest update.nds bricked it.
I don't know, I don't have one of those clones. Preferably the one for your exact model.

They only have one update: that what I used so that I can't use it. Seems like they doesn't support older cards. Yes, I know that it's a dirty rubbish clone or what ever and Wifi doesn't work but it's my first flashcard...
Maybe I find a update somewhere in the net...

/edit
The latest Kernel worked with my flashcard and it's based on YSMenu

    Played a little Portal way back, but didn't care for it. Should give it another go.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Oh god, Portal. I got stuck in the middle of making a portal on a wall, and trying not die in the pit. Can't remember what level it was, but this was a decade ago. It just feels too difficult.

    They should've continued making Rabbids games before they fall off the earth. If Nintendo has Super Mario, then Rabbids should be their mascot for all their games. Make a lot of money.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @Skelletonike, Valhalla was pretty good, slow at first but gets better as goes. Not quite as good as Origins or Odyssey tho, imo
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    The game has so many options, many pointless, but no option to change the audio settings? I like when I can put the sound to work better with a soundbar or stereo equipment, I think previous games had it? Weird
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    I really like origins for the world itself.
