r4 Card SOLVED

Post by Rixer 1337 » Mon Jun 08, 2009 9:59 pm

I got an R4 card today for my nds but I am having problems getting it to work. I did what all of the youtube videos say but when I put the card in my ds and turn it on I get a screen with a card on it the has a ? and then under it it says menu. I cannot figure out what my problem is. can anybody help or show me a tutorial that is guaranteed to work?

Edit: I got it to work. Appareantly I had a R4 knockoff so I had to go to a completely different place to get the firmware or whatever.

No I got mine from Alibaba.com (china), ended up only costing me $120 but took ages to find a decent seller that accepted paypal,
have you had any problems with your knock off r4 yet? mines worked fine no dramas except one of my friends has the same one and it craps out on him often

And that's just for the bad R4 clones.
Even, you know, good cards are < $15.

I am hoping that he uses a different currency. But mine works perfectly.

I could understand, maybe, 120 Pesos, or 600 rupees, but $120?
I can't think of any currency that that would be a fair price in.
