I just got my Acekard 2i and wanted to update my DS to 1.4.4. It just so happens that Nintendo released firmware 1.4.5 today and now my Acekard doesn't work. Looking around on this forum I get the impression that they are no longer releasing updates for the Acekard. Did I waste my money on this card?
Hacking I updated to 1.4.5E. Am I screwed? >_>

If you have a DS Lite, then no you didn't waste your money.
If you only have a 3DS or DSi, then yeah you pretty much wasted your money at this point.
There is a slim chance that the Acekard Team might be able to make an update, but that's very slim considering the extremely low amount of usable exploits left.

That's...just great. I don't have a Lite anymore. Isn't it so that other flashcards already received their firmware fix? Doesn't that mean that it should be easy for the Acekard team to fix their flashcard as well?
If the AK team was actually still making updates... they haven't updated for the past few 3DS updates either.
You guys forget that flashcarts that DO support the latest 3ds/dsi updates were released about 1-2 years AFTER the AK2i and as such have newer and better hardware. The AK2i was only of, if not the first dsi compatible flashcarts and it hasn't changed hardware in awhile now. Clones have updated multiple times because they had too. There is still hope but because of the recent save checks nintendo added (most flashcarts AK2i included don't emulate this) it makes it harder to get through nintendos checks. An update is still being actively worked on but its not as easy as some people seem to think it is.
Has the team considered new hardware? Given how long the AK2i was "the" cart and given how people like AKAIO, they'd probably want it.
And if i may, it's totaly stupid to use a DS flascard with a 3DS console, because the screen distorts the image from a DS game !
You can use DSLite (for me it's the best), DSi and DSi XL to play DS games !
Somebody know what's append with the new 1.4.5 DSi Firmware with Ak2i ?
The DSi receive "the recent save checks nintendo" or not ?

Yen, i know, but how many people know that ?
And even you do that, it's still better to play on a DSLite, DSi or DSi XL, no ?
I don't even have a 3DS and I know that, because people have been posting it since it was found out.
It's definitely more comfortable to play DS/DSi games on a Lite or DSi/XL, though it's still quite comfortable to use the 3DS's D-pad with a bit of acclimation.
Only one, maybe two games are significantly more comfy on the older handhelds. I was pretty surprised, actually.
And I really would look forward to an Acekard with newer hardware, as it's been my favorite of all the different cards I've used. The DSTwo simply guzzles too much power while in the game slot, since the hardware powering the sd card slot and the processor don't turn off in sleep mode.

I've updated to 1.4.5E 
I just noticed that AceKard 2i do not support this firmware. I have a DSi and a DS Lite. What can I do now ?
I cannot use my DSi until Acekard team update the acekard firmware to 1.4.5 ?
I always check the updates, before I update my DSi. I missed it this time, I had some troubles with Animal Crossing, and I thought that I need a system update to fix it. I will never ever do this again!
Anybody know when Nintendo released this update ? I hope that the Acekard team will release an updated firmware for AK2i.

System updates don't affect DS games, for future reference.
The update came out within the last week or so, but the Acekard team stopped giving out updates a few months back.

So, the Acekard team isn't going to give the DSL/DSi users any further updates ? The are only making updates for 3DS, from now on?
That's pretty sad if it is true...
If you are looking for a replacement for the AK2i, as they might not release a 1.4.5 fix, I would suggest the Supercard DSTWO or the real R4i Gold located at http://www.r4ids.cn/.
I know about Supercard DSTWO, I wanted that flash, but I had to choose the AK2i, as the DSTWO wasn't on stock where I've ordered my flashcart.
Anyway, I will buy a DSTWO sometime.
Damn, I accidentaly updated firmware to 1.4.5. I thought I am updating to 1.4.4 because of "DSi FW v1.4.4 being the most recent release" here http://wiki.gbatemp.net/wiki/AKAIO#Firmware_updates.2FCompatibility . :|
Is there any way to downgrade or I am fucked and need to buy new DSi

@K3Nv2 I got some cheapies at wallys, that are pretty good, already have lost a few expensive ones (one falls out and gone, can't find) while cutting grass so bought some cheap ones, and of course never lose these cheap ones. (Cheap meaning only $35, compared to air buds which I only have 1 of 2 now)
