Howdy.
Mmm, well i've been waiting for the Alice In Wonderland game, and Avatar and thought i'd update my R4i (it says v1.4 on the case of it, 8gb) card/cart whatever. And whilst looking through the forum i came across this apparent 'update'. So thinking i'd update my card/cart i followed the links and downloaded this R4i v1.25 Kernel. I cleared my card/cart with exception of my games, and now absolutely nothing comes up. Soon as i click the card/cart it comes up white. Have i buggered up by deleting everything? Can someone please direct me to what i should replace my now failed card/cart with and possibly the latest versions as i really wish to get these new games...Link i downloaded;
http://r4li.com/download/r4i_v1.25_kernel.htmlAlso buying my girlfriend a card/cart this weekend [2 days away] and i was planning to get her the same as mine, but all these horrible stories about the r4i's going to be faded out, and anti piracy stuff will make them useless with any new roms coming out. WHAAAAT!?! As mine is within warranty i can trade mine in, so can someone give me a solid amount of information for someone who isn't totally 'down' with it. I've tried picking up pieces of information here, but i don't completely get it all. And i'm no closer to deciding other than assuming Acecards are pretty spot on, i assume they're updated and will continue on pretty strong. And with suggestions, maybe their updates sites or something?Sorry if i'm a hagg, but i'm not an oldy, i'm 23, and love my ds, i just don't really get technical stuff. Thanks for the ears. ;)

Eepah!Well i've gone here;
http://www.r4i-sdhc.com/downloade.asp
Downloaded the top file, it says English. Which i most certainly wanted, it doesn't matter i'm using a DSi bought in
Australia no? It's not an Asian model that just needs a patch?Downloaded fine, unzipped fine. Just copied it all over to my DSi, so i now have these; Games [where i store my roms], moonmemo, moonshl2, R4iMenu, and something just called R4 [which is coming up as a Nero file for me].But once i open my card/cart it just flashes with a quick black screen then holds on the white. Do i need to get the "firmware" from the second site too? Sorry if that was obvious, i wasn't sure.I'm now going to the second site;
http://www.linfoxdomain.com/nintendo/ds/
And i'm currently downloading; R4iRTS_v2.6_English.zipAm i on the right track? *slaps forehead*

Ok. Well do i still need that second firmware download?
I have a terrible connection where i am so it's taking it's sweet time.
And the link you gave me is coming up failed in asian or something.
Do you have another? I cant seem to find it on the actual website.
I can only see back to 1.14Thanks for you patience.

Use the R4Li firmware?Here
That is Firmware version 23. Should work.^On my server. (It runs from my Windows XP PC, with Opera)
I hope it's a bit faster...
If it is freaking slow, please let me know... I fix it.

It says your pc is offline yoshi.
I'll keep refreshing.Also, i'm not actually at my house to look at the box.
Which i'm not even sure i kept. Surely hope i did. Could be some sort of solution there.

wasnt saying that he should get another one just if he was still getting his girlfriend one to get a better one. to avoid similar problems recurring
