Unfortunately R4 cards are a problem and no longer recomended. It is the firmware that is wrong (the star wars icon is just to fool the Dsi into seeing a genuine rom. The site in my signature host all the firmwares, start with the likely suspects (there are over 40 to choose from)format the SD before trying each firmware. Put no roms on - just the firmware - till you get past the white screen or "loading" - then try a rom, if it fails to start the rom it may still be the wrong firmware. As a test rom use something old - known working
