Hello, I have the R4 flashcarts seen in the pictures. The flashcarts before update to 1.4.5E version previously working on my Nintendo DSi XL I don't know which firmware to install because their websites are dead, so can anyone help me with the firmware I need to install?
R4i-RTS Lite card uses the firmware for the R4i-Gold(.)HK card. https://flashcard-archive.ds-homebrew.com/r4i-gold.hk/
Not sure about that other card, though.

I tried this firmware but I was not successful my nintendo DSi XL saying An error has occurred. Press and hold the POWER Button to turn the system off. Please refer to the Nintendo DSi Operations Manual for details. Is this version incompatible with 1.4.5E?

Your flashcart was blacklisted on the latest system update. You need custom firmware to be able to use the cart again, or go with TWiLight Menu.

Is there a way to fix this problem with a new firmware of this flashcard? Otherwise I will do it as you said.
btw Nintendo DSi XL gives this warning in the other flashcards whose pictures I shared.

No. Don't think there are any firmware updates for this card (not to be confused with the kernel). You can use it again with custom firmware or if you have an older DS like a DS Lite.

Ok, thank you so much for your help. I actually have a flashcard running on 1.4.5E version. I wanted to know whether these other flashcards I have could be brought to life again. I don't currently own another Nintendo, but if I buy one in the future, I may use these flashcards or use custom firmware.

Would be to easy I guess :) Still same issue. DS Lite shows card as DORASU,, but when trying to load it, it get's stuck on loading screen.
You need to rename "_DS_MENU.DAT" to "_gold3ds.dat" (lower-case). Or re-format your SD card to FAT32, 32kb cluster.

I have a r4isdhc.com 2019 flashcard any reccomendations or smh?
Huh, I bought a similar one and it doesn't seem to work.

Have you tried these ones: https://gbatemp.net/threads/r4-firm...hc-clone-firmware.437924/page-12#post-9388538

They also have their website, but the download links appear to be dead: https://www.r4ds.com/wood-r4/wood-r4-kernel.html (it's at the bottom)

You can try to download them via the Wayback Machine if you want.

I tried several and none worked so if the seller doesn't provide a kernel for it to work, then it'll be a refund.

For my R4 3DS cart, the latest firmware made it functional: http://r4i-sdhc.com/downloade_r4i-sdhc.asp

But my other one that I bought "R4 New SDHC Open DS TWYMenu" I tried various sources and none seem to work. Gets stuck on the "Loading" screen. Any ideas?

Thanks.

Try Twilight menu? Also post the card url so we can find what card it is a clone of.
