Greetings All - Newbie here - But Not an R4i Newbie....

Basically, ...yes I know I shouldn't have done it.....but here goes...

My 3DS was running the old software and I wanted to put films on it...... The camera utility didn't have the Video on it so I took a chance with the update,,,,duhr....... yes I have video now....but the R4i has bit the dust for the time being.....

I have TWO versions.....

one is R4i 3DS from WWW,R4i-SDHC.COM,

the other is the R4i 3DS [unlimited upgradeable] according to the sticker,,,,from R4i-SDHC.HK for NDSi/NDSL

Neither is worling since the upgrade,,,, My hands were sort of tied as the upgrade path was the only way I could see to get the video option working....

Has anyone out there got it cracked yet.....

According to the bottom right of the settings screen...I'm now on Ver 4.0.0-7E

A beer for anyone that solves it

Cheers - DB

Hi dave , welcome to to the forum...

as you said... you should never update without updating cards first lol...
so this is the propblem you will now have, your console is now blocking the flashcards, so can't be used to update the cards.
you will need a console running older firmare to perform the updates as you console is now blocking the flashcards.

for first card: R4i 3DS from WWW,R4i-SDHC.COM

download the latest fimrware.
stick it on sd card, pop into r4 card and put in an older console.


then follow the manufacturers instructions detailed below.

your card should now work in latst console.. :)

second card:
unfortunatly it looks to me like support has stoppped for that card.
there is no updae available yet for 1.4.4dsi or V4 3ds, i would keep cjecking that site, maybe something released in the future...
 
Many Thanks for your quick reply.....

The kids have ordinary DS lites,,,, I should be able to sort it out with those.....

But... If I recover it....will the Video playing function be gone too....hmmm catch 22.....

Actually, the video thing could be a whim so i will sacrifice that.....

Thanks again

DB
 
the video recording funtion will not be affected, you are only updating the flashcard.. :)

I am a newbie too but not a r4i newbie i am having the very same problem except my 3ds is running Ver.4.2.0-9e has anyone cracked this firmware???
 
you need to check the website on your card to see if an update is available for card yet.

3ds v2 was launched less than 2 weeks ago. i am not sure which cards (if any) have released updates yet...
 
THANKS for quick reply and ill keep a eye on the site for latest update......thanks
 
same thing happen to me.i just wanted to get that pokedex 3d y i updated my 3ds and now im running 4.3.0-10u.do you have an update for that using r4i unlimited upgrable revolution for Ds? can i still updte my r4 from a lower version of ds for it to work again?can i still rely on this option? thanks.
 
yes u can,but you will hve to waitfor the update to be released..

welcome to the forum.. :)
 
how do you go about updating the card if you have not updated your 3ds still have firmware that came with mario, and your card is still working in your 3ds.
dont have card or 3ds hear to c them grandson has them with him.

it all depends on the card m8.

there will be a web address on the card. updating info will be found there, remember not all cards can be updated.

also a good idea to keep the card updated if possible,once the console is updated cannot use it to update card...
 
r4i unlimited upgradable revolution
that card rings a bell think it maybe that one will need to find out
cheers buzzer
 
i am sure thats an easy card to update

if its the one i think it is,u just put latest firmware on and theres an update option on it.
 
Hi all

glad i found this site, my son has 'updated' his 3Ds to version 4.0.6 (i think it is); hes 5 little sod and now his R41 3ds card wont run.

His sisters 3Ds has not suffered the same fate and so the card still runs.

Am downloading the firmware update linked on the previos page see if that will sort his card.
 
welcome to dw.. :)

have a look here

it has a list of cards with links for the fimrware tyhey need.

i doubt the lad has updated the console or it would be on newer firmware.

more likely your sd card is needing formatted or firmware is corrupt..

which one of those cards is it?
