Firmware update
31/05/2011
I have updated the firmware of my card using the file fwup142c.nds from the www.r41-gold.eu website, and installed R4i English V1.48b. When updating the firmware I waited until it reported that it was completed 100% and that I must restart my DSi XL to continue. I did this and then did a System Update of the NDS. It’s now at Ver 1.4.2E.
Now, on selecting the card Start icon, the screen then freezes at Loading ... www.r4i-gold.www.
I realise that neither of these updates are available directly yet from your website but wonder if either you have any idea how I can recover from this update, or whether any other users are experiencing the same problem (suggesting that I really did follow the instructions correctly).

Upgrading Firmware
27/03/2011
I've just bought a R4i Gold Card v 1.4.1. I can see the card on my DSi but I can't play any games. It was fine when I had a v1.4 R4i gold card (now lost). Does this mean I have to update the firmware on my Dsi? If so how do I do this and is it ok to do this?
Thanks Rob

R4i Gold card

The problem relating to compatability issues - your reply is 'It will probably be resolved when they update it' you also say, if I want to know more then I should contact them directly. Fact is, they can't be contacted, the emails are returned undelivered. If they can't update since December 2010, why are you still selling their cards? Why not remove them from your stock list till they get their act together, show some support for the customers who support you.

R4i Gold + 4gb

why am i getting a message saying that the card is fake please return to retailer, i have emailed u but u seem to be ignoring me!!!!
Dear Whitley,
Thank you for your purchase and your message.In order to solve the problem as soon as possible, could you tell us how you setup the card? Which driver version did you use?
If your DS is showing "Fake card, please return to retailer", it is due to kernel/driver problem. Once the correct kernel/driver is copied onto the microSD, the issue will be resolved immediately.
For R4i Gold
The driver and the complete setup guide are available from our website
here.

games compatibility
03/02/2011
Hello
I have installed the 1.44b on a DS. I hSome of the gave copied the games onto the root directory. Interestingly, some of the games have their icon recognised and displayed, and can be played. However, there are some games where their icons are not show but have R4i in the icon, and these games cannot be played and hangs when it is run.
Is this a games compatibility issue?
Dear Yang,
According to your description, it's likely a games compatibility issue.
Please wait for the new driver release or contact the manufacturer www.r4i-gold.eu to concern the problem.
Kind regards,

NDS Lite
29/01/2011
Hi,
We have an nds lite (NOT a DSi as the build quality never made us switch) and m3zero card that cannot keep up with the NDS roms never working anymore.
Is there a better card out there that plays most nds roms , and DIVX would be cool too to play downloaded films?
thanks

R4i Gold 1.4.1 and older Firmwares

Probably a silly question but wanted to be sure. Will latest card work with DSI with older firmware (1.3e) or should I upgrade firmware on console before using card?

What R4 card is compatible for a DSi?
29/12/2010
My daughter is wanting to buy a R4 card for her Nintendo DSi - can you recommend the best card for this and is there anything else that needs to be bought as well as the card? I am a techno-phobe so please can you explain clearly so I can understand. Thanks. Lisa.
Dear Carradice,
The best card for Nintendo DSi is DSTWO.
We recommend r4i gold and r4i sdhc which are compatible with latest DSi XL 1.4.1 or below. They are reliable and economical too.
Though the card will not come with the software installed on it, we will provide step-by-step setup guide and necessary software download links.

Which Card
29/12/2010
Hi Which card would you recommend for DSI XL that has been updated from 1.4E to 1.4.1E. I have purchased the Acekard 2i but some games dont load and show a white or black screen. I have tried the same games on the same DS using R4i gold and they did load. I'm not sure whether to purchase the R4i Gold or the R4 SDHC??
Dear Murphy,
Considering the functions of the R4i SDHC and R4i Gold,they are almost the same.
The outstanding difference between R4i Gold and R4i SDHC is that they are from different manufacturers. R4i Gold is from R4i-gold.eu while R4i SDHC is from r4i-sdhc.com.
R4i SDHC has the Wi-Fi function while the R4i Gold does not have.
For more information, please refer to the product descriptions.

1.4.1 Firmware
28/12/2010
I already have a R4i gold card, but recently i updated it unaware that nintendo blocked it. I am now looking for a new one and came across this one.
Dose it work with DSi XL 1.4.1E? Also, i already have a micro SD card 8GB so will i need to invest in a new one? Will the firmware already be on the card or do i need to download somwthing? One last question - Do i have to buy a new card for R4i to ever work on my DSI agian? Thanks alot Vicky.
Dear Chappell,
This R4i Gold card is compatible with the DSi XL 1.4.1E. You need not to buy a new micro SDHC card.
Though the card will not come with the software installed on it, we will provide step-by-step setup guide and necessary software download links.
Some of the DSi flashcarts, such as r4i gold and r4i SDHC, do not have the firmware update function and will be blocked when a new DSi firmware is released.
Fortunately, some DSi cards have the firmware update function and can be unlocked even when the DSi console is updated to the latest firmware. The unlocking process requires the new firmware from the DSi card manufacturers' websites.
The following is the most popular and reliable DSi cards that have the firmare update function in alphabetical order:
1. Acekard 2i
2. EZ Flash 5i
3. Hyper R4i
4. M3i Zero
5. Supercard DSONEi
6. Supercard DSTWO

Some of the DSi flashcarts do not have the firmware update function and will be blocked when a new DSi firmware is released. DSi firmware is normally updated without the user's awareness whenever the DSi console is connected to the internet via the Wifi wireless.
Fortunately, some DSi cards have the firmware update function and can be unlocked even when the DSi console is updated to the latest firmware. The unlocking process requires the new firmware from the DSi card manufacturers' websites.
The unlocking processes differ from card to card and is one of the important factors to consider when picking the most suitable card for you or your loved ones. The unlocking process has two types. For type one, the unlocking process can be done on a PC or Mac. The type two requires a DS Lite or a DSi with the compatible firmware version to complete.
5. M3izeroThe following flashcarts with the necessary firmware update from the respective manufacturers have been confirmed to be compatible with the firmware 1.41:
1. EZ Flash 5i
2. Hyper R4i
3. Supercard DSTWO
4. Acekard 2i

Software crashing when game chosen
17/10/2010
Hi - I have downloaded the latest firmware V1.41b for this card & the software seems to work & shows a list of roms but when a game file is chosen it says 'create save file' & crashes - any ideas?!

Installation problem
08/10/2010
I have down loaded the driver and put it on the memory card and then into the R4i gold v1.4 card. But I get a white top screen with "Menu?" and a black touch screen. Help.
Dear Chaston,
Before putting the driver on the memory card, one needs to unzip the driver first. Then proceed to place all the unzipped files under the root folder of the memory card, i.e. the unzipped files should not be under any other folder.
Kind regards,
