    Give me 1 good reason when keeping the following in mind:
    1# It got deleted in the first place.
    2# i lost all information about a game that isnt that much importand anymore at all.

    Hello. I've tried to install the WOOD R4 but it doesn't seem to work for me, I keep getting stuck at the loading screen. Am I missing something here? Is it because I formatted all my data? I'm pretty sure I have the R4 original. I've tried to install V.1.43, but it doesn't work. I also tried V.1.42 R4 SDHC as well as for the clone, but I keep getting stuck at the loading screen. Can someone help me?

    An R4 Original run v.1.18 firmware and only able to use 1Gb and 2Gb Micro SD. Yours is an SDHC version. So its not counted as original. Its not compatible with Wood R4. Try your luck on YSMENU instead : http://forum.romulation.net/index.php?topic=43121.0

    PS: If necessary, post whatever writing is on the sticker of your flash card; better yet...a screen shot of it.

    Are you talking about the version for it? If so, I have currently installed 1.34 for it.. and I'm using a 4gb micro sd and it currently works with that.. oh well, thanks anyway I guess. the writing for the R4 is:

    R4 SDHC

    Revolution for DS
    (NDSL/NDS)

    Yup, that's what I meant. Yours is an SDHC version. Original R4 can't run SDHC Micro SD, and your card isn't going to work with WoodR4. So why don't you try YSMENU instead from this link : http://forum.romulation.net/index.php?topic=43121.0
    Cause its compatible with YSMENU secondary firmware.

    Procedure is the same;
    1. Back Up your SD Micro content
    2. Format the SD Micro
    3. Re-insert the backed up files and the YSMENU files to the SD card (use the folder content marked as R4SDHC)
    4. Load the SD Card and double click YSMENU.nds on your console
    5. Load any game you want to play from there.

    It worked :) thanks for the help, since I don't know much about these firmware stuff. I can finally play some of those blank screen games now. Appreciate it!

    @Calo3 I got it to work for now, so I don't need to worry about anything for now, thanks for the tip though!

    You're welcome. From here on, keep an eye on the updates from RGF and Jhon591. Only need to replace the extinfo.dat, infolib.dat and savlib.dat from the TTMENU folder each time an update is available.

    ??? , That explanes how to xd.... ?

    Its very importent if it could!... I have my resions not to say why untill tested.

    But if you can tell me what happens with DSTT/YSMEMU TTMENU.sys after a game has loaded ?

    EDIT: Ok i will tell you :) , The entire ARM9 gets Dump't into the TTMENU.sys Along with the AP Patched DATA if Patched by the firmware its self!, So maybe if woodR4 has the AP Patches in the firmware it would also get Dumpt into the .SYS file If possible to make a .SYS , But the game has to fully load, There for we could get all the AP fixes for all games...

    I realise this has probably posted about 40000 times, but i have an m3ds simply running wood r4 on my ds lite, and was recently thinking of buying a 3ds, would this work on my 3ds or would it- as i had heard rumours of- 'brick' it?

    It simply won't work. U need a 3ds supported card for the 3ds.
    Visit the sticky topic in this section for help.
