I posted not so long back about my daughter accidentally updating her DSi to 1.4.3 and since then her R4i wouldnt work, anyway, I bought her a new R4i that allegedly worked out of the box on 1.4.3 but this isnt the case, when I put the new card in it stays stuck on 'loading'
I contacted the website I got the card from and they confirmed the card should work on 1.4.3 and sent me instructions to use the 'special patch' which mentioned using another console, so i've now got hold of a DS Lite (not sure what its running but it has a working R4i in it) but the instructions i've been given are crap and i'm close to smashing the shite out of the consoles, instructions are as follows:
You should get a NDS Lite console(borrow one from others if you don't have one) and one any other flashcard(called "A" -like R4, TT, AK2, M3 or SupperDS two..)), which works properly on NDSL.
1.Download the latest WOOD R4 firmware from R4iDS Official ? R4i gold Revolution For 3DS,DS,DSL,DSi V1.4.3 - R4i Gold 3DS and unzip it to the root directory of your tf card;
2.Copy Patch_R4iGold3DS_xmas_NDSL.nds to your tf card;
3.Just power your NDSL on and boot up Patch_R4iGold3DS_xmas_NDSL.nds with "A" card;
4.Take "A" card out of the NDSL;
5.Reinsert your broken R4i Gold 3DS card into the NDSL;
6.Press KEY_A and the updating process will begin;
7.You should keep your NDSL powered on during the updating process;
8.IF the result shows SUCCESS, it means you have updated your R4i Gold 3DS successfully and this card can work on DSi V1.4.3 and 3DS V2.2.0-4 and V3.0.0-5;
None of the above really makes sense to be honest, how can i power my NDSL on and boot up the patch with the other R4 card when the patch isnt on that card??? no matter what I try I still get stuck at loading.
So I now have a DSi on 1.4.3, a DS Lite on unknown, 2 x R4i cards that dont work in either console (these are the 2 i've bought) and an R4i that works in the DS Lite.....can somebody please tell me what I'm doing wrong and how i can get one of these bloody R4i's to work on the DSi?
Thanks folks.
