Acekard 2i update to run on DSI only
Before proceeding to this guide please ensure you have the latest extracted acekard 2i software on your micro sd.
The guide starts here. Please patiently follow the guide. Its easy :
1. Important: if you want to update you AceKard 2i you will need to use a DS Lite or DSi 1.3 or lower console to update your Acekard 2i. Please take note, the firmware is different from the main driver as advised above.
Again please ensure you have the main acekard 2i extracted firmware first on your acekard 2i.
2. Then download the add-on firmware here :
http://www.mediafire.com/?1xquh1ymjjx
http://www.acekard.com/download/akaio/AKAIO.1.8.0.rar
Extract it but dont upload yet.
3. Unzip the firmware file downloaded, there are two firmware update files
a) For DS Lite :ak2ifw_update_14_DSL.nds ( USE THIS ONE IF YOU HAVE A DS LITE )
b) If you have multiple Acekard 2i cards that you wish to update all in a row, run on the DS Lite console using ak2ifw_update_14_DSL.nds
4. Now copy the appropriate firmware file to the root folder of the microSD memory card.
5. Plug in the microSD to the Acekard 2i and insert the Acekard 2i to the DS console.
6. Select the microSDCard icon on the main operating system
7. Select the firmware file AK2IFW_UPDATE_14_DSI.NDS by pressing A on the right hand side control pad.
8. You will be prompted if you want to update the firmware as follows:
9. Press Start on the DS to continue 10. The following screen shows that the update has been started.
11. The following screen shows that the update is halfway done.
12. The following screen shows that the update has been completed. Congratulation! Restart your DS now.
13. The Acekard icon on the DSi main menu has been changed to that for DANNY PHANTOM URBAN JUNGLE THQ. Done! ENJOY!
14. Copy firmware on to Micro SD Card like this
15. then just get games from site of your choose and put into games folder and away you go.
16. None of the above needs to be done if you are using Acekard 2i n a normal DS, you just need firmware for the card.
