Somebody should make a list of compatible flashcards so that nobody ends up bricking them in the process.

Somebody should make a list of compatible flashcards so that nobody ends up bricking them in the process.

I have a work-in-progress one over at r/flashcarts wiki: https://www.reddit.com/r/flashcarts/wiki/ysmenu-compatibility/

(it will always be work in progress because frankly there has been DSTT clones popping up left and right from people dusting off their DS hidden in the closet)

Hello my friends, could anyone tell me if any of these Flashcards are compatible!
Thanks in advance for the amazing work!

Don't think so, I've seen these only run the Wood kernel. It's worth a go anyways.

The BL2CK kernel should be correct for that. I don't think it works on unmodded 1.4.5, so you'll probably also need to install CFW (including Unlaunch) to unblock it. With CFW it should either work from the DSi Menu or loading from Unlaunch's menu I think.

Whatever you do, do not run YSMenu, the topic of this thread, on it. That will permanently brick the cart.

So just to double check, if I want to run YSMenu as my primary kernel (non dual boot) for my R4I-SDHC clone I shouldn't copy over YSMenu.nds but instead R4.dat? And I also assume the part about using "DSONEi SDHC YSMenu folder" is a typo and I should use the R4I-SDHC folder?

Hi, is r4 gold pro (2020) compatible with ysmenu? I have seen several videos on YT where if it works to skip the time bomb imposed in 2024 or end of 2023. In the tutorial it says they are ALL 2014-2019 carts from : www.r4isdhc.com, the latest kernel is from 2018 despite being a 2020 R4, I don't know if it would be compatible.

In case of not being compatible, could I remove the time bomb by simply delaying the date of the console?

As it does not let me put the image I put a link (of the image) of the card that I have verified that it is exactly the same.
Thank you, I hope you can help me.

Yes, you just set a date and time forward then backwards and it does circumvent this issue.

Sí, simplemente establece una fecha y hora hacia adelante y luego hacia atrás y evita este problema.

Thanks.

This is compatible with YSMenu.

Consider using it. Compatibility overall better on YSMenu than on that stock thing.

Indeed it is a typo. Use R4i-SDHC YSmenu.

Can anyone confirm if they are able to get the Operation Decoded Digimon Story Lost Evolution patched rom to work with YsMenu? I am using an old TTDS to run it, and I am getting -4 with the patched rom.

I tried running the unpatched rom on the TTDS and it worked fine, and then I tried running the patched rom with DeSmuME on MacOS and that also ran fine, so the only combination that doesnt work is the patched rom + ysmenu

Which one is better?

Pretty much all of the R4s from r4isdhc and R4i-SDHC are literally the same cart with the same hardware. The Supercard Onei and DSTT use the same kernel (for TTMenu and ysmenu.) The M3 is my personal favorite due to bias but it should work the rest. I don’t know anything about the others.
Personally, I would use either the DSTT or one of the the R4isdhc carts since their kernel setup will translate across multiple carts with easy set up. Using the DSTT/YSmenu launcher renamed to work on DSOnei will still allow it to work the same on the DSTT. Using the R4iSDHC launcher will work across all of the carts with the same hardware.

Nice. Is that your collection?

Same exact issue here sadly. The file size also decreased after applying the translation patch..? I would really appreciate a solution very much.

Yeah my rom also decreased in size after the patch which I thought was weird, but since it works in the emulator I don’t think it’s a problem

What is the difference in using this

https://github.com/DS-Homebrew/flas...sdhc.com/r4isdhc.com_2014-2020_DEMON_4.0b.zip

Compared to the one in this thread?

And also which is better?
