R4 Revolution -> Black screen Loading...Help!

Post by Tyzy Ghost »

Automatically translated from French.

Good evening...I have a small (big?) problem with my R4 since I tried to put a lower Firmware on it to play a certain game... the problem is that since I deleted the previous folders, every time I turn on the DS, there's a black screen with "LOADING..." written on it in white, and it doesn't move after that... no matter which firmware I try, I can't manage it! I need help, I wouldn't want it to be ruined especially since I use it regularly é_è

thanks in advance

(Files currently present at the root of the SD:

-moonshl
-R4menu
-_DS_MENU.DAT
-_DS_MSHL.NDS
-_System_)

and if there's no solution, how do I recover the files before I do all that?

Don't worry you haven't messed up your linker, far from it it's just that you're not using the right firmware for your R4.

Thanks for your reply Gamer (once again you're helping me out, yay xD) so...what type of files should be in my linker actually?....I've racked my brain, I feel like something's missing, or there's something extra :/

Thanks for the reply Kalidor, I tried installing it by deleting all the other files but... the result is the same "LOADING..." :/

I should mention my R4 is a "R4 Revolution for DS"

Is there a web address on the linker's label? or on the box if you still have it.
It might be a clone.

Yes, there's the following address: https://www.r4ds-a.com

The R4 was working fine until today, while trying to install another Firmware, I messed everything up :/

3 solutions:

- bad luck, the linker fried for no reason :(
- you're not using the right firmware (you'd need to test them all (firmware R4 (the loooooong list below :?) and wood)
- you tested a firmware that bricks clone linkers :? :cry:

Very important UP!!

The "LOADING" disappeared after I installed the R4Advance_v1.22 French Firmware, positive point? not entirely, now, it shows me a green R4 DS menu with leaves...but there's a message right in the middle of the screen, titled "!!!!" and the message says "This is fake!!". Impossible to do anything ... am I getting closer to the goal? (that at least means the Linker isn't bricked, phew)

IMPORTANT EDIT: I did it! I had to take the Advance version (very strange, since my R4 is an SDHC...ô.o Anyway, either way it works, Thanks to everyone who helped me, I had quite a scare ^^'... Thanks again!!
