do normal DS games work,Hi guys,
I just bought a R4i Gold Plus card to play DS games on my new 3DS XL, but when I run it in D mode with the latest Wood Kernel, I just get a black screen.
I have noticed a couple of people having this issue, so apologies if this is a redundant question. I'm not sure if I should post here or make a separate thread.
Oddly enough, the card works perfectly fine on my old DS lite, so I'm wondering if there is an issue with my new 3DS XL.
I'm running system version 11.6.0-39E, with homebrew installed (LUMA and so on).
So far I have tried three different sd cards, two sandisk and one toshiba brand, and I even got a replacement R4i Gold plus card from the seller.
All sd cards have been formatted to FAT32 using "SD card formatter" program.
I also followed the troubleshooting guide about fixing the DS / DSi functionality listed on the 3DS hacks troubleshooting section.
My conclusion so far is that the issue is either with my new 3DS XL, or there is a fault with the flash card, which only manifests itself when using it with a new 3DS XL.
Any ideas what might be the issue?
