Hi Guys My sons 3DS XL doesnt work anymore, and i am too stupid these days to work out how to fix it, so i need some help I have this card I bought Mario Luigi's maniosn 2, and the console updated Now i get this message as shown here I have tried downloading some new firmware, but i am unsure what i am doing, and its still not working I could do with step by step info in baby terms! download links too if possible Help an old guy!
Hi,Don't worry. Your card need upgrade the firmware(not mean the latest kernel) download the upgrade file ftp://r4idsdown:r4idsdown@soft.r4ids.cn/r4igold_3DS62_Patch.rar 1) use a dsi or ds (the systme muust lower then 6.3.0) 2)put the upgrade patch into the micro sd card 3) run/process the patch file (Press A when select the upgrade patch) Here is an official tutorial http://3ds-flashcard.com/blog/how-to-upgrade-r4i-gold-3ds-wood-r4-1-62to-work-on-3ds-6-3-0-12/ If the card can't work anyway, you need to buy a new one. I recommend the r4i sdhc Buy r4i SDHC
currently you need to update your r4i gold 3ds card on a ds lite to make it work on your updated 3ds console. your r4i gold 3ds card is this one http://www.dsflashcart.com/r4i-gold-3ds-wood-r4i-3ds-flashcard-for-ds-dsi-3ds-p-248.html check the step by step update guide here http://www.dsflashcart.com/blog/how-to-update-r4i-gold-3ds-card-for-3ds-v6-2-0-12u/
so your r4i gold cannot work on 3ds v4.5? seems it is a very old r4i gold card, but i remember the r4i gold team released patchs which can update your card to support v4.5. you can check their news page: http://www.r4ids.cn/news.htm Yes, at the middle part, there has news show the patch released. "The DSi 1.4.5&3DS V4.5.0-10 Patch for R4i Gold 3DS is released now!(2012-12-13)" Use that patch, follow the step other guys said, your card can be updated.
Right i downloaded patch, tried everything, i cant get it to work i get the message failed when i press A I suck Do the new 3DS cards work? i will buy one of those instead.lol
looks like your card is too old and can not be udpated to work on your 3ds firmware, so you have to buy a new updated card instead, still recommend the r4i gold 3ds card, must be working great on your console. http://www.dsflashcart.com/r4i-gold-3ds-wood-r4i-3ds-flashcard-for-ds-dsi-3ds-p-248.html
luigi's mansion just doesn't update your 3ds it also installs the latest firmware that blocks the card completely had it happen to mine as well its completely dead
That is great. That version can support gateway 3ds and R4i gold 3ds deluxe edition. Please do not update your console, you should buy a r4i gold 3ds deluxe edition ( http://www.digimartz.com/r4i-gold-3...s-games-with-r4i-gold-3ds-starter_p1215.html) instead, many people wish that they have a 3ds with verison between 4.2~4.5.
Cheers bud, no way around it then other than buying a new card? I was thinking of getting the new card that can play 3ds games
true true but i am not going to bother because i would like to play pokemon x and y which both require the latest firmware version and the 1.1 update to fix bugs with the game
