Pretty sure - but I'm wrong quite regularly - the problem is supposed to be from V1.20. Mine's running on V1.18 & all the games I've tried on it (before I buy them) work fine.

V1.20 ony works on the fake cards. The latest official release is V1.18. I'm not sure whether V1.18 works on the fake cards.

Hi English
The Firmware i use is 1.18 and is 100% (so i guess thay are Genuine)
I have tried the Unoffical 1.21 and 1.19 all Thay do is Hang at the Loading Screen.
The 1.19-1.21 Firmware is I beleve for the SDHC Slot 1 R4 Devices .
Hope this Helps

Well recieved My R4,s Which are Now V3 Type.
So it seems that the V3 R4 is the High capicity type taking Micro SD Cards upto 8Gb.
All V2 & V3 Types are genuine R4's just diffrent Kernels
Hope this clears up all the confusion about Fake R4's.

R4's that work on Software 1.18 are real. The rest including the V3 are fake.

Hi Telewest

In my experence using the wrong firmware on the R4 just causes the DS to hang whilest loading.
