N5 Flash Card

Hi everybody, I have a N5 Flash Card for NDS (slot1 of course)In threads about rom fixing it is never listed, and as I could understand, it's because N5 cards are the exact copy of another type of card (more popular). Do you know which one it is?

WHatever it's based on...it's not a "reccomended" card.Acekard is the best, cycloDS as well (but no dsi support) and the edge (based on the acekard apparently...)

N5 is a poor quality clone of the original R4, which is itself a poor card to have now due to its lack of support. (it was the best at one time).

I know what you are talking about, it's a chinese piece of crap ;)
Btw I'm not planning on to buy a new flash card, so I guess I'll keep carry on :DTy @other guy i don't remember the name (sorry lol), can anybody confirm what he said? EDIT: Loonylion did, thank you too :D

Didn't notice hypnos' comment before, but I'll just set the record straight: edge is a cyclods clone.

Oh, I got them mixed up :(...must have been the recent r4 card that I was thinking about (some of those are based off acekard,s hence why they can use akiao firmware, or so trithRR said..)

Erm, that video was the most confusing ever :SOk, I downloaded the zip from mediafire then I replaced the DSTT with the one jhon linked here.Then the guy of the video has TWO folders, click around, open notepad, close notepad, click around some more. Is it supposed to help people??Can anybody tell me where to put the unzipped file and which file that are already on my flash card (_system_, moonshl, _AX_MENU.dat, _DS_MENU.dat, _DS_MENU.SYS, _DS_MSHL.NDS + 2 custom folders) must be deleted?

Make two folders on your desktop bckup all your orignal files into one, So if your format your card you do have a backup of all,Just drag and drop all files from zip or rar onto a formatted microSD card would be easyer

*sigh* the vid is pettry clear, but still i will tell you, my zip file of YT is alreday a working Ysmenu, it has all the components meant for it to work, you also need the englsih version of the N5 card, also i dont use Notepad its Textedit as im in macintosh, the two folder thingy, is meant to show twice the process, im gonna re uplaod the vid due that it would seem its not clear in off.also the N5 has a high compatibility with most games, even recent ones, with the exeption of Assasins creed discovery.

You are the guy that has done the video, right?I'd like to thank you in advance, it's good to see people that put effort in helping others.I found your video confusing because I thought that YSMenu replace entirely the boot files of the flash card, so I guess it's mainly my fault :D But I think that messing around (opening Textedit, changing font, repeating process without pointing it) in a step-to-step tutorial can be confusing..Just sayin'
