After a long hour of searching on the limitless web, I couldn't manage to find any working link to download the latest kernel (nor could I download the earliest), and even the main website for r4 iii seems to be down.

Can someone please send me a working link to download it ? (v3.12) Or perhaps upload his own ?

Thank you in advance.

Hello. :)

The Link from the GBAtemp donwload Section is there to help you:



thank you, this loads to a blank screen with a single folder icon...where I am able to browse games but not launch them. The size of this kernel is also much larger than the official one. Hopefully someone else has the link to the official version. Else, guess I will be shopping for a cheapo R4 card next week...

Thank You All !
Finally got it working, card needs kernel with file "_R4__III.DAT".
Strange thing is games hang at launch with white screen if choose not to create .sav file. However not an issue, just create a .sav file when launch game and it works.
Also surprised card works with 16GB SDHC.

again thank you everyone who helped with the kernel.

The kernel of this flashcard is very old, which is why I inserted the TTMenu files. If you have problems with many games (white screens or other errors) after loading the original kernel, load YSMenu.nds as a game and then start the game in the new menu.
If there are still problems delete the .sav before trying again with this method.

unfortunately it does not work, but I notice that normally r4iii upgrade have the logo "upgrade" on the card, and mine don't have it, maybe I have a R4 that doesn't fit the box?

No that have nothing to do with it.
You can look on the Wood Kernel site:

http://old.r4wood.com/pages/Kernel-Download.html

Other r4 cards with their official sites mirror backup

r4ds-i.com.cn (2009-Jul-22) | r4i-ndsill.com (2012-Aug-6) | r4dsixl3d.com (2011-Feb-8) | r4-dsl.net (2009-Feb-20)

r4iii.com (2011-Jul-28) | r4iiinew.com (2009-Jul-22) | r4iiisdhc.com (2009-Mar-18) | r4li.com (2011-Aug-4)

r4-king.com (2011-Nov-12) | r4new.com (2010-May-21) |

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

You may try this one of these:

https://filetrip.net/nds-downloads/flashcart-files/dl-r4-iii-kernel-3-13-english-f11430.html
Kernel 3.13

https://filetrip.net/nds-downloads/...-v3-12-joel16-kernel-firmware-1-0-f25193.html
Upgrade 3.12

(YES it is FILETRIP and YES it is STILL working. :P)

Good Luck.:)
