I'm sick of this dstwo its garbage on my 3ds, what card can i get that doesnt randomly work like my current card.
Right now the DSTwo is pretty much the best flashcard for the 3DS and in fact might soon be the only flashcard to work on the 3DS in future updates.
Well it sure don't work that great. I have to troubleshoot everytime I play it. Weather it be 3 mins or 1 hr or even never at times. it's just too random on my 3ds.

What problems are you having?
Have you tried backing up your MicroSD card and reformatting with this program?

Using these settings
FORMAT TYPE : FULL (OverWrite) FORMAT SIZE ADJUSTMENT : ON
I have before but im willing to try again after all the messing round ive been doing. Once second...
Overwrite takes some time....

Didnt work, its gotta be a read error or something.
I have to go to system settings and back to see the card o.o

It seems to be a little bit better but still on and off. And like i said i have to boot system>go to settigns> clsoe settings> then the card finally appears
Hmmmm, tried cleaning the connections? You can do that with a q-tip and a little WD40.
Just lightly soak one end of the Q-tip with WD40 and rub it down the connections in the back of the card. Then dry it off with the other end of the Q-Tip. That has fixed a good number of my flashcards.
The card.
I wouldn't suggest using WD40 in the 3DS card slot. I have no idea what would happen if you did.
You can pretty much use anything like WD40, that normally eats the gunk and rust that some times effect the connects.
I haven't really tested anything, but WD40 and products like it.
I believe that should work as long as you don't let it drip into the card and dry it quickly.
I haven't tested it myself though.
I don't think that's a problem with the card, it might be though. I have this same problem with my R4i Gold 3DS. Sometimes the card shows up and sometimes it doesn't. But does it not show up only after you remove it or something? Because mine usually has this problem if I remove the card. If it shows up and I turn the 3DS off and on, it still shows up.
That actually sounds like a contact problem, which is extremely common with the Acekard 2i

Although it's rather uncommon with the DSTwo and might actually be the issue.
It's so uncommon, I actually forgot it was even possible.
It cant be the card at all, it works flawlessly on my friends DSi XL, jsut not on my 3DS XL. ill check out this thread your pointing me to.
