Reasons to flash:

  • Protect firmware from trojans - near obsolete problem
  • 100% download play compatibility as a receiving DS - R4 and CycloDS both have 100% download play compatibility as senders now
  • Boot slot-2 flashcart without extra hardware - you already have an R4
So there's basically no point in flashing nowadays.

Thanks, I was almost going to buy a slot-2 flash cart. You save me a lot of money!

Hi everyone. I've downloaded the latest firmware 1.11. But I experienced a weird glitch. See when I replace the default skin, the lower screen skin(the icons) did not change. Weird because that particular skin for the lower screen do not exist in my micro sd. Anyone experiencing this?

No it runs at full speed and wifi works.

The only thing I could suggest is make sure the file names and extensions are all in caps. If your using Windows XP make them all lower case letters cause XP uses caps by default.

recently I'm having a little problem with some of the games that I've download, such as, My Sims for exemple, after the game has been load, it says " cannot read data, turn off power, and reinsert the ds game card." So, what I can do about it? Does anyone else have the same problem?

Use the ARM7.bin injector to fix this problemhttp://m3.omgrofl.co...m7_injector.zipAlthough I haven't used this program yet, it seems like it's alot faster to use this than DSLazy.

You can get an R4 and 2gb micro sd card from a company called consulup in the u.k for about £40 total - delivered quickly and all works well. I have another ds rom card with no slots that i dont know how to identify.

No the R4 i have is real - no 2gb sign on the R4 itself and no chinese writing. You can buy the micro sd card seperately if you want but it mentioned it having to be a TF trans flash card i think this stands for. To aviod any incompatibility issues i bought the lot from the one place. It also came with a cd and the manual and stuff posted here. The instructions here on the cheats section are clearer though.

Help anyone. I play Elite Beat Agents(U) in my r4 with the latest firmware(1.11). Everything works fine until the stage with the song "Material Girl". The game stops when I try to enter this stage.

Thanks for the reply! But it doesn't really work. By the way, all I've done is to download the newest version of the R4 firmware. But thanks anyway!!

Could be your Micro SD is corrupted? Try backing up your saves then formating your SD then reinstall your games and other files? My games were acting up (rune factory mainly) then I formated and all worked fine?

The cheapest option is to get a EzFlash 3in1 and use Rudolph's 3in1 exp pack tool to play GBA games, Or you can buy a slot 2 flashcart to play GBA games

Question if you're still here, before all the roms were .nds files but now they are .efw, do I change it to .nds or do I just put it in my R4?

Where are you getting your roms? I haven't seen them with the *.efw extension? If indeed they are NDS roms I would think you could rename them, but I am unfamilier with your problem?
