Are you using a Kingston 1GB card? I wonder if that's where the problem lies, because I'm using a 2GB SanDisk card and it's not working for me either.

I seriously doubt that's the problem. SD cards aren't even consistent in what parts they use. SanDisk could be using Samsung memory and some random OEM controller one day but when prices change they'll switch over. Same goes for every other company. They're all very similar anyways, maybe we're using different firmwares?

The type of card makes a difference for Castlevania: POR, it's unplayable for a lot of people. That problem isn't isolated to Castlevania either, this link shows a few games with freezing problems depending on the SD card used.http://wiki.scorpei....h_Compatibility I'm using the 1.08 firmware and I'm pretty sure I've read that dbgtdob uses the same.

We need to find out what the problem is (SD card or type of R4/M3 Simply) and add this to the users guide. I have a 1GB Kingston card and will update with some results this week.

Because it could be something developers did intentionally to stop piracy.

That's exactly right.

I couldn't care less about Code Lyoko, I never intended to play it, but I want to know if this is a new trend with DS games.As far as I can tell, the only difference is the fact that dbgtdob's card is a Chinese version and I have an English version, is yours English or Chinese KyuubiWarrior? If that's the case then it could probably be solved with the next firmware update, hopefully.

you guys are blowing this out of proportion, i remember when people could not dump jet blue and they were all posting pictures of how they could not dump it and how they thought the ds game companies found out how to block it, since the people who made the game made it different, it was dumped a few days later.

Wasn't it Jet Impulse that one group couldn't dump (and was then dumped by another group)? I thought it was simply a new chip on the cartridge.

Yup. It was because of a slightly different chip being used. This could be the same case for these games. Though if it doesn't work now, wait until 1.09 beta. Knowing the R4 team, they'll have cracked at least one of the preventions stopping games from working by then.Now that I've told you what to do (wait), don't complain. The R4 is a brilliant device, but it obviously will have some limitations. If you all can look back a few firmware versions, quite a few games didn't work. What did you do? Waited until the next firmware, then tested the games again. So, just do that, and stop complaining!

the 2gb one is slower then the 1gb one, and it only matters if if its taiwan on the 1gb, the taiwan kingston factory uses low qualtiy parts to make the 1gb micro sd, while the japanese factory used refurbished toshiba chips so it was better, but the 2gb taiwan kingston is fine since they used better parts, on newegg.com they dont care if its taiwan or not they just ship it to you, i know because people have asked and they told them we dont care we will ship you whatever one we have you cant choice, some people have gotten a taiwan some a kingston.anyways here is a good deal on a 1gb kingston micro sd for only $10.00 free shipping in the US, if you dont live in the us dont get it, its cost more to ship if you live out of the us.http://meritline.sto...ro-sd-card.html($10 1gb kingston japan micro sd free shipping to US)

rom backup is roms, lol, if you have a slot 2 flash cart such as M3/G6 you can plug in your ds games and make your own back up rom copy, of course the R4 does not support it since the ds only has 4mb of ram and it has no where to hold the data for the R4 to do so.

This does not seem to happen to my friends who also have R4s, it only seems to happen to me. When I'm playing a game on my DS, the game will just freeze abruptly, even though the game IS supported. Does this happen to anyone else?

Random R4 News for you all:firmware 1.09 is released! All the games with problems (Code Lyoko, Tennis etc) are now working, along with some other things. Check out the changes list:

1) Optimization delete process;2) Solved the 0991 issue;3) Solved issue to some of the games without displays of icon and the title; 4) Support master switch of action replay cheat for real-time game (opening cheats by L+R+START+UP, temporarily closing cheats by L+R+START+DOWN);5) When cheats to the same game are in both the official database and the users database, users can choose to use the cheat in any database;6) Solved the 1070 achiving issue;7) Solved the 1085 issue;8) Updated Cheat code editor v1.01;9) Released the list of cheats.

I've TRIED to translate some of it from engrish into standard English here:

1) Files delete quicker.2) Solved Issues with roms: 0991, 1070 and 1085.3) Some games didn't display an icon or title. This has now been fixed.4) Now you can turn on/off action replay cheats. (turn on using L+R+start+up, turn off using L+R+start+down)5) It is possible to select cheats from both databases (The official R4 DB, and a custom one) at the same time.6) Cheat Code Editor is now at version 1.017) We have released an updated list of cheats.

This is just my interpretation. None of it is in any way 100% correct, and I may have mis-translated some of it.

Woot! New kernal.Back to why I'm here.How do I use Action Replay codes with my R4?I want to use this code:Wild Pokemon Modifier94000130 FDFF0000B21C4D28 00000000B0000004 0000000094000130 FEFF000000000890 01ED0001D0000000 00000000DA000000 00000892DC000000 00024620C0000000 0000000BD7000000 00000000DC000000 00000006D2000000 000000001. Press L+R at the inventory screen, then you'll get 493 Masterballs.2. Set Masterballs' quantity to the Pokemon's number you want. (Example: Mew=Pokemon number 151, discard until you have 151 Master balls)3. Hold L and encounter Pokemon. DO NOT push L+R together again or you will have 493 Masterballs again (unless you want Arceus as his Pokemon number is 493)I just read that you need to use an application to download the codes, so would someone mind getting the codes for me and zip them and send them to me?Like up them to sendspace and then send me a PMI have a Mac, so I am quite confused.The guide I found said I need a program to download the files and another to convert them for the R4.

like most flash card programs only windows is supported, you are out of luck with mac in regards to making your own R4 cheat code list, and if i were you i would cheat with pokesave, someone made a program to hack flash card saves, you can give yourself 999 masterballs, you can max out your cash, and even edit what pokemon you have on you and in the bank, i used it to give me 999 rare candies.

Can I get a link?I have been looking for 10 mins or so and can not find it.I just know it runs on the DS.

What is PokeSav?"PokeSav is a utility for editing Pokemon Diamond/Pearl save files for FlashCarts (*.dat/*.sav/*.0) or emulators.official pokesave site (japanese)http://pokesav.umimi.com/you can download it here.http://cleanmycomput...am/pkm/pokesav/http://rapidshare.co...ersion.zip.htmlSo I've got PokeSav, what do I do with it?"First of all you need a save file. These can be gotten by starting up the game on your flashcart/emulator and creating a new game and then saving it. After you have a save file, you can usually find it in the folder in your FlashCarts save folder, or where ever it might place save files. In my case (I have an M3 Perfect MicroSD and a PassKey3) these save files are stored in I:\NDSSAVE\ under the filename lgc-pkmd.dat (Pokemon Diamond) or whatever the rom is called when you put it on the flashcart.After you've found your save file, back it up. What I usually do is that I'll copy the save file to the same folder as I saved PokeSav to and rename the original lgc-pkmd.dat.backup, just in case I might mess something up. After editting, I'll then just copy the save file I've editted to my flashcart and start up the game to play with the changes.After backing up, fire up PokeSav and let's get hacking.First of all, you need to load up your savegame in PokeSav. Click load and browse to the location where you copied your save, select it and open it. All of your saved details should now be visible in the editor and you can now change everything as much as you desire."How do I get <insert pokemon here>?"There several ways to do this. Which one you want depends on wether or not you want legit pokemon (pokemon that have unaltered stats, levels, etc.).The first method, which is non-legit, is simply clicking the Edit button for the corrosponding party number which you want to insert the pokemon into and then filling out the information in the dialog that follows. Here's a rundown on what needs to be added for it to work:Pokemon dropdown: Select the pokemon you want to add.Item dropdown: Select the item you want the pokemon to have, or just leave it empty if you don't want it to have anything.Trainer and Secret ID: Just press the "Input Own ID" button here.Level: Input the level you want the pokemon to be.Exp. Points: Just leave it blank, as editting the level should fill it out automatically.Friendship: Change to whatever value you want. Ranges from 0-255 and determines how much the pokemon likes you.Attribute: Determines the nature of your pokemon. Click Create and fill out the needed information. It dosen't really matter wether or not you choose first or second classes. Check the Shiny option if you want the pokemon to be shiny.Name: The Name of the pokemon. You can choose the original name by clicking the Original Name button, or make up one yourself. The Change Name checkbox is there to signify if the pokemon has had it's name changed, so there's no real reason to check it. PokeSav AFAIK puts whitespace after the Pokename name if you use "Original Name" for some reason, so you should probably delete the spaces if you don't want to see "Trainer sent out MEW !" all the time.OT: Original Trainer. States who the original trainer who caught the pokemon. Just click the Own OT Name for this.Met at Level: The level the pokemon was met at. Input any level lower than the level you specified in the Level field.Met in Place: Select a place in the dropdown box and it'll automatically fill it out for you. Place matters little as you aren't going for a legit pokemon.Country: Country of origin. Determines the localization of the game from which the pokemon came. Select the one that corrosponds with the game localization you have.Fateful Encounter: Wether or not the pokemon was caught in a fateful encounter. This is usually not needed and mostly only appears with Legendary pokemon.Poke Ball caught with: The pokeball the pokemon was caught with.Ability: The ability of the pokemon. If you don't know which ability the specific pokemon has, there's several sources on the net that can help you. You don't HAVE to choose one, but it's highly recommended that you do.Hometown: The region the pokemon is from. This is the game in which the pokemon was originally caught. Select whichever you want as it dosen't really have any effect.Battle Moves: The moves your pokemon has. First select a move a move from the dropdown box, then input the PP that move has in the field right next to it. The "PP UP's used" option is optional and dosen't matter.Stats Edit: The stats of the pokemon. Here you can either click the "All Max" button and let it fill out the information itself, or you can input the stats as you like. Make sure to edit the Level to make it the same as the level you originally set.Egg: This allows you to change the selected pokemon into an egg. Simply check the "Change" option and input a number from 1-255 in the dialog and the egg will hatch after taking that many steps. Any pokemon can be hatched this way, no matter which level of evolution they are. Note that if you add more than one egg this way, the game can only hatch one egg at a time, and seems to reset the counter for the second egg after the first has hatch. This is also one of two ways to get the pokemon into your pokedex. (Any pokemon hatched using this method will start at level 1 and base stats and the skills normally available to that pokemon at that level.)And that's it. You've now created your own pokemon. All you need to do now is hit the ok button and you'll now have the pokemon you just made in your party. Note that anything option not mentioned is not required to creating a pokemon, so I have decided to not explain them for now.Another option, for getting legit (and possibly non-legit) pokemon is to load in a premade pokemon. First of all you will need a .pkm file with the pokemon you want. These can be gotten by asking someone to save one for you from their own game, or by going here and selecting the pokemon you want, and then download it.After you have acquired the .pkm file for the pokemon you want, all you have to do is click on the Load button under the Party Pokemon option and then selecting the .pkm file with the pokemon you want. After that, save, and you should now have that pokemon in your party.The only problem with adding pokemon with the above two methods is that they will not be added to your pokedex. One way to make sure they are added is either by changing the selected pokemon into an egg and then hatching it, or by using the trick listed below.Another way to get perfectly legit pokemon, at least stat wise, is by clicking on the Edit button under Events (Should be in the lower left corner of the editor) and then selecting the pokemon you want under the Mining Museum Pokemon option and then clicking ok. After this is done, all you have to do is head to Orebreugh town and head into the Mining Museum. In there, there'll be a guy that looks like a doctor. Talk to him, and he'll give you a level 20 version of the pokemon you selected in the dropdown. The only thing not legit about this method is the location you've acquired the pokemon, but this can be changed in the editor just like when you created your own pokemon.PLEASE DO NOT USE THESE POKEMON ONLINE FOR NEITHER BATTLING NOR TRADE. It's considered just plain rude to do this, and Nintendo kills a kitten everytime an illegal pokemon enters the online world."HELP! I've tried adding a pokemon I got from that site to my party, but it gives me some strange error message!"A common problem. Generally, the editor is being a bit bitchy about the location you add the pokemon. If there's already a pokemon in the slot you're loading the pokemon to, it'll give an error. if it dosen't work with an empty slot either, try adding it to the Storage instead, as this seems to work for most people.MAKE SURE YOU ARE ADDING THE POKEMON TO AN EMPTY SLOT."HELP! I tried to add the <Insert Event item here>, but it dosen't work!"Another common problem. You have to add the special items in a specific way, otherwise they won't work. The way to properly add the items and activate the event is as follows.Open up the editor, then click the "Edit" button under events in the lower left corner. On this dialog, click the "Mystery Gift Edit" button. At this dialog, go to the "Gift" section and check the "Enable Gift" checkbox and then select the item you need. The items needed for the events are as follows:Azure Flute - ARCEUS event.Oak's Letter - SHAYMIN event.Member Card - Darkrai event.After you have enabled the item this way, there shuold be a delivery man in green standing in all of the pokemarts, who will then give you the item you selected.Note you can only add one item at a time this way, but it's a failsafe way to getting the events going. As for completing the events, there's several other guides for this on Gamefaqs.com or similair places. This also works for acquiring the Manaphy Egg. You also MUST have the national Dex for all of these events, except for the Manaphy Egg."How do I get the manaphy Egg?"Same as above, only select Manaphy Egg as the item instead of the others.
