    I bought a R4(which contained N5 1.16 firmware) it was working as a N5, i was playing games normally, but when i format it and put n5 1.31 files to it. It just says loading...
    So what is my problem?

    Its the firmware you need to download the R4 firmware

    www.r4ds.com

    Or

    https://www.romulation.org/forum/index.php?topic=27617.msg466427#msg466427

    If it is a R4 original that is ?

    It is not a r4, it is n5 in r4 cover, cuz the n5 1.16 worked with it,and why doesnt the n5 1.31 doesnt work...
    And the r4 1.18 doesnt work (does the y menu makes any diffrence for the working)
    and can u guys give me a trusted download link for N5 1.31?

    Its far more likely that the N5 is a fake, not the firmware.

    Google it they must be a freewhere somewhere

    http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&source=hp&q=software+recovery&btnG=Google+Search&meta=&aq=null&oq=

    I use recover my files but its a full version

    http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&source=hp&q=recover+my+files+megaupload&meta=&aq=f&oq=

    You have formated your card a few times, i might not be possable to recover it anyway

    Bin it , and get a real R4 or acekard

    R4 original from indoor markets will be £10-13, the ones selling mobile phones est

    you cant buy the original R4 now, its not been available for years. You want an acekard 2, EDGE or cyclods evolution. Stay away from anything R4 because theres so many clones with questionable compatibility.

    But beware of fakes
