Hi guys,
I really really need some help, very frustrated. Got an R4 this morning and after putting the software on etc i just got stuck at the loading screen. i have tried everything, including downloading all the different firmwares and using the panasonic formatter.
Is it possibly a faulty R4? I got it from model gadget.... : (

wersite is www.r4sdhc.com, but tried all the downloads on that and nothing.
just a though - i have a r4 sdhc card, but it came with a 'Lexar 2GB Micro SD'. i have just seen on another website that you can get a Micro SDHC card - is this what i should be using or doesn't it matter? I have ordered another r4 in case mine was faulty or something, but really dont want to spend any more money : (

it will not matter if you use a normal micro sd memory ( 1 or 2 gb )card or a micro sdhc memory ( 4 gb upwards ) card they will both work the same .
its a pity you have ordered another r4ds as i wouldnt have recommended any r4ds version.
dont get me wrong the original r4ds was good but they dont make them anymore and they havent had any updates for quite a while , a lot of manufacturers have jumped on the band wagon and started to make fakes , copies or clones of the r4ds and people are having nothing but trouble with them loading errors and so on.........
i will however recommend to anyone thinking of buying a nds flashcart a cyclo ds , edge ds , m3ds real , supercard sd one or acekard , these are well supported with frequent firmware updates , very solidly made and support sdhc memory .

Hey shawkes23 was it the r4 from model gadget that you got working ? I bought mine from there (well klickstore but its the same as far as I'm aware) and the little sticker on the box says to go to the same place. Let me know what kernel you tried please, would be much appreciated.

Im the one who have the R4 SDHC and 256MB "NO BRAND NAME" I used the firmware 1.21 and it worked, now I'm looking to purchase a much higher memory card since I proved that my R4 is working, my cousin is using 2GB SANDISK and using the firmware 1.20, you can try this, hope it will help others too!

hello any of the following will work fine and are made by a well supported team -
cyclods evolution - the most expensive but you do get what you pay for .
m3ds real - made by the well respected m3team .
edge ds - very similar to the cyclods but a bit cheaper , bought about 20 for this christmas and all working fine .
all can use normal micro sd memory or micro sdhc memory ( i use transcend 4gb memory but kingston and sandisk are good as well , 4gb holds about 80 ish games )

ive never bought from that website mate so cant tell you if they are good or bad to buy from .
the price seems cheap enough though .
normally buy in the uk from here - http://www.addictsupplies.com/index.php they dont have any cyclods in stock but they do have edge ds ( very similar to the cyclo ds ) and m3ds real .

Hiya, DS crew.
I see you are all sending in data on what to buy in R4's and SD cards.
Also, the Kernel's that are out there, some do not work with the Discs you all have.
I have come across people re-formatting their SD card before loading the Kernels. This I know will affect the disc. The SD disc when bought should be in working order. Do not format it when its new.
I only buy 2 types of SD discs, being 'Lexar' & SanDisc (all on 2gb).
Buying these, I have never come across any problems and have tried in different R4's and all work fine.
I do buy my R4's abroad (like most of you) and in the UK.
The latest im buying will arrive on Thursday and I will be testing with different cards to check if what you are all stating is true.
I will update you all when i get the discs delivered.
In the meantime, please keep updating this forum, as it has now grown into a community of R4 searchers.
If anyone has issues that I may be able to assist with, please don't hesitate to get in touch either through here or private.
If anyone has got through the Loading section but when the Game is loading find that the save section will not show and the DS says restart, let me know as Iv'e got some software that gets you through this.
Oh, updates on new games. These will become harder to load onto the SD without the software.
Many DS Thanks
Pugg.
