My AK2i aint working
L
I went and downloaded the official firmware, but when I try to start it up, it wont even boot. I'll get the health screen, "Touch to continue", and after that nothing.Same thing with the GBATemp guide.Also, using a DSL, and it says on the back that it supports DSL.Sure it's not a fake, since there's no window in the back.

Have you tried using AKAIO?That's WAY better than the OFW.AKAIO 1.6RC1 - http://normmatt.com/forum/download/file.php?id=68Loaders - http://akaio.gbatemp.net/nloaders/Loaders go in the /_aio/loaders folder.

I tried the GBATemp guide to setting up AK2i, GBATemp guide uses AKAIOyes, i would say i tried that :P
A
Try reformatting your card and that everything is in working order and that your Micro SD card isn't write protected.
D
Would you guys still recommend me getting an AK2i? Because a lot of people are saying its good and bad ... So I'm sort of in between the middle for it ...
A
Replying to #5
I would.
People just don't know how it works really.
It's rather simple. Just like any other flashcart or firmware.
L
nvm, the card wasnt plugged in right :[anyways, i still can't boot it up in my DSL X.x
A
Well that sucks.Download the firmware again and put it on the Micro SD card.
L
still nothing, using AKAIO 1.6RC1 with latest loaders...how am i supposed to boot up an AK2i? do i start it like a legit game or does it start like an R4 (doesn't go to the DS menu screen)?
A
You have to start it like a normal game...It's nothing like an R4...
D
Yeah its nothing like an R4 from what I've heard, it works with every single game ! :P
L
OH SHIT I THINK I FOUND THE PROBLEM!is the akmenu4.nds file supposed to be named ak2menu4.nds?

fuck nvm its not the problem >:(
A
no but is tha akmenu4.nds in the root? if not put it there. i suggest to make a games folder so you dont get confused.if you have no emulators or homebrew files, there should be 3 files on the root. akmenu4.nds _aio and a games folder that should work. maybe you bought a fake acekard?
L
yes, its in the root. I just noticed that as of AKAIO 1.5 clones are now "officially unsupported" does that mean I have a clone D:
A
go to the acekard website and look at the fake acekard topic.is there a hole in the back of the flashcart?
L
no there isnt a hole.
A
then it must be real. may i have your email to attach the files i have on mine?
L
does AKAIO support AK2i and does AK2i support DSL/SDHC/Kingston SDHC?

i just noticed that bewteen AKAIO 1.5 and 1.6, one loader called akploader.nds is missing, should i have that?
A
i dont think so. did it work?
L
crap, it didnt D:
