ya umm so whenever i open my ds now it says it cant find the ds menu and i have these weird files in within them that dont say any words they're just symbols and i tried downloading the kernel but the icon is a internet explorer and im pretty sure its not supposed to be.Please someone help me get back my ds menu and my games back all i wanna do is play yu gay ho (yu-gi-oh, lol)
just tell me what to tell you and i will i just want to fix this problem im not a technical dude ( it wasnt my fault anyways...)
Is it an R4 card of some kind ?, there must be a sticker on the cartridge. If so have a look thru here ~ http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/725065 ..but you may find it quicker to go thru here trying different firmware ~ http://www.linfoxdomain.com/nintendo/ds/ If it's an R4 of some sort and you put the wrong firmware on, it will either not boot up or hang, in which case you just keep trying different firmware versions until you get it to work (only you can know what was only there before, after all!). If it's not an R4 then i can't help you as i haven't used other types of cart. You don't need to be technical at all though, for any of this, for example see here ~ http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_jump.cfm/725065/4729555 http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_jump.cfm/725065/4796185 http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_jump.cfm/725065/4732324
well i was assuming people would know im talking about an r4 so i didnt bother but yes this problem is with my r4 and my friend deleted the ds menu....
well i want to show you what the files inside look like and + i just downloaded the firmware and it fully says ds menu within the english folder can u tell me how to send a screenshot 2 u?
Please don't use text speak.. A screenshot of the files won't help i don't think. What would be better is for you to describe the text on the front of your R4, for instance does it look smilar to this ~ - it's the text on the sticker that helps narrow down which firmware you need...
yes thats what my r4 looks like thats the exact same sticker. so i downloaded the ds menu but it still says it cant find it
Where did you download it to? You should have downloaded v1.18 Unrar the package. Copy the follwing files/folders to THE ROOT DIRECTORY OF your microSD. _system_ (folder) moonshl (folder) _DS_MENU.DAT (file) _DS_MSHL.NDS (file) and try again.
