How can I now update my offical firmware for my acekard 2.i if the link is dead. I am on version 4.23 and would love to play lego marvel
It's dead. Buy new cart from other maker or play on emulator as I've mentioned to your other post in the Technical Section. Good luck.
In my opinion, in the long term you should buy another new cart like r4i gold 3ds,r4i-sdhc 3ds rts or dstwo, cause seems that ak is dead and you can't always play lego marvel without AP in it. Someday, the AKAIO fimware will dead too.
you can download the acekard akaio v1.9 kernel from here http://www.3dsinfo.com/show.php?id=8 googled just now, have not tried this personally, i'd recommend buying this r4i-sdhc card if this not work http://www.r4flashcart.com/9-r4i-sdhc-3ds-rts-flashcart-for-3ds-xl-3ds-dsi-and-ds-lite.html
Keep in mind that the OP has his problem solved already (http://forum.romulation.net/index.php?topic=62903.0). He has had already found and downloaded AKAIO 1.9.0. It'd be better if this topic be locked as per his request in the other topic he made as linked in this post to avoid members coming here suggesting and advertising flash cartridge re-seller websites.
