Hey friends...
I have a Yellow DSi XL ver. 1.4E (well my daughter's)
With the R4i v1.4.1 card (The card is yellow) Firm v1.62b
Here's the card's official site => https://www.r4i-gold.com/
Everything's going great except I don't know how to play Toy story 3 & Shrek 4
And obviously those are the games she'd like to play with...
Would you have any idea... Other than changing cards obviously... lool
Thanks in advance...

Is that the latest official Kernel 1.62b?!
First put on firmware 1.42

It's normal that they're not the same!

Try putting on a Wood version that you'll find in the DS/DSi news


EDIT: try this instead: news-ds-dsi/retrogamefan-multi-cart-upd ... t7082.html

Edit2: Put on a Wood kernel, that'll fix your Wood 1.33 game issue

First put on firmware 1.42???
Update the DSi...?
Isn't that discouraged...?

EDIT:
I found this on the site...
"r4i-gold V1.4.2 Upgrade Firmware" ==> "fwup142c.nds"
Update done for my card to 1.4.2 but the two games still don't work...
And yes, v1.62b is the latest version on the site => https://www.r4i-gold.com/
And as for Retro Game it doesn't work either => "Menu?"
And as for Wood 1.33 it does the same... => "Menu?"
Are there different models?
Do I just paste the files at the root or do I need to rename some of them...?

You can then delete all your system files and folders to be sure. Put the DS_MENU.DAT file and the _rpg folder at the root of your Micro SD. Launch your R4i Gold, it should show the Wood menu.
That's for Wood 1.33, did you properly delete all the files and folders from your r4i??
If not, copy your original files into a folder on your pc, then delete everything and just put the DS_MENU.DAT file and the _rpg folder at the root of your Micro SD.

As for AKAIO for R4i Gold 1.8.6a-fix, you delete the old files and ton.dat then you put the _aio file, ds_menu.dat, _menu_.nds and akmenu4.nds
and that should work

Yes that's exactly the step I did... :?
Every time, the card empty... and the files at the root... :cry:
And every launch "Menu?"
Now, I don't know if my card is a clone or not... I don't know if that has anything to do with it...?

Well if retro game, Wood and Akio don't work.........then I don't see
Did you properly format your sd every time??

What's weird is that retro and wood work on all cards without any problem

EDIT: In retro you have 3 r4 to test, the clone (ysmenu), r4sdhc and r4isdhc!
start with clone

Ok, I give up...
I just tried all of them again...

Retro Game -> the 5 files one by one with formatting ->? Menu
Akio ->? Menu
Wood R4iDSN v1.33 ->? Menu
Wood R4iGold V1.33 ->? Menu (Found here -> https://filetrip.net/g35130127-Wood-R4- ... 4iDS).html )

This is the only one that works -> https://www.r4i-gold.com/en/download/
But not all games work...

My card is this one -> https://www.r4i-gold.com/en/product/2010/0517/51.html

Just in case... :cry:

with 1.61b do you have the same problem?
try this one R4ids Gold Official Firmware 1.51C

is it a Gold v2.0 or Gold check these https://www.r4ids.com/r4ids-e.html

left image good, the other one not good :cry:

Ok after that --> :98:

I'll keep you posted...

EDIT:

Well at least no "? Menu" that's a good sign :D

It wants to launch and then puts up in red in the middle of the screen:

https://www.R4I-SDHC.com (Isn't that the right address?)

"Please upgrade the hardware for support latest firmware"

Well seeing as it was firm 1.36b

I went to look on the site and put on the latest in French, the 1.41b

And now it tells me:

"Fake card! Please return to retailler."

Well I'll wait for a new Firm on the right site...

You never know... yet the two games I'm talking about haven't worked since 1.57b...

And I did go through 1.58b all the way to 1.62b and still doesn't work...

Despite trying several versions of the games...

Anyway thanks all the same for your help... :74:

Well sorry, apart from their site, because this one isn't official, your SD is a clone :cry:
But as long as it keeps their site updated that's the main thing :accord:

Me again...
New issue... :shock:
My daughter just turned on her console and some games she was playing showed:

"load errcode=-1"

I read in a few forums that you had to format your card...
I formatted my card normally, not quick, redownloaded the current "Firm" --> 1.62b
Put the games back, moving the .SAVs to be sure...
And now... ALL the games show "load errcode=-1" :shock: :shock: :shock:
Any idea...? :?
Thanks in advance... ;)

I just saw that a lot of people have had this problem with the R4i Gold since yesterday and today...
And they're saying to turn the date back a year and it works...
I'll try that because I've already formatted my card 4 times today and still nothing...
I'm going to try the date thing and come back to tell you what happens... ;)

EDIT:
There we go, I turned the console's date back a year and all the games work... :shock:
For anyone with an R4i Gold who has this error message...
You just have to turn the date back... Really weird... :roll:
Sorry for the trouble... ;)
