Hello, Im using r4i upgrade evolution, and I thnk this is just a clone. Its site is r4issdhc.com. I have upgraded my dsi version to 1.4.3U and my card was blocked by the ds. cant access it. How can I open my r4i again? hope you can fix it. Thanks in advance.

Depending on the version of your r4i card, download the latest firmware here (http://www.r4i-sdhc.com/downloade.asp) and install it over the existing files. This should allow you to run it on the newest dsi firmware. In the future, do not upgrade your dsi unless you are absolutely sure that your r4i will continue to function.

If you have an ordinary r4 card then it WILL NOT play in any DSi. To play your games now you will have to purchase an r4i card compatible with v1.4.1. I got mine at http://www.gamekool.com/r4i-r4isdhc-r4isdhc-upgrade-for-all-version-of-dsi-p-228.html for 10 bucks. Its from r4i sdhc(original) team who are constantly upgrading the software to allow AP bypassing and fix other bugs. If you are happy with r4 then this defo is the best alternative for you. There are other cards out there considered better but since using r4 series I think they are the most user friendly and upgradable. Its a matter of taste at the end of the day. Hope this helps.

you cant atleast i dont think you can but your able to buy a new one that works against the r4i block upgrade

Well when you update it to 1.4a it blocks it because that version blocks r4i cards or any kind of firmware, people have had this problem before so look at the other questions before answering another one and use 'GOOGLE!'

You must install the USB into the pc, format the micro SD card (if you have one) and get the latest kernel from the CD/website, now get the R4i into your dsi, and enyoy! (please be aware that some flashcards can work on V 1.03 or under, so don't upgrade to 1.04!)

Hello DSi Gamer,

For any errors having to do with a R4 card, never look in the manual, all those error codes have other problems that a manual would even know how to handle. If you own a real R4i SDHC, then it should work fine on the DSi v1.4u. I'd update everything including your DSi, it should be safe now, as well as get the latest R4 SDHC softwarre on a freshly formatted micro sd card.

I bet that'll fix all your problems.

If you suspect that you have unstable fake clone version you can get a genuine card there too. http://www.dscardworld.com I managed to find this site after I got burned at a few others. Loved having my emails responded to because I had loads of questions, and they were quick to ship it. They test each card before sending them. US based support and shipping I believe.

Best of luck!

Curently the R4i Team has released a new flash adapter called Hyper-R4i,
this adapter has a re programmable dual core on board.

The R4i Team brought a new firmware out for the Hyper-R4i that works around the latest firmware of the Nintendo DSi v1.4 all regions.
