go the the R4 offical website and download the latest kernel files and copy it into ur mini sd card. the R4 shoudl come with a SD card reader and a USB card reader tha u can put the mini SD card in. If u still don't know how to use it then u shoudl read the manuals.

mc25, I had problems configuring my R4 too. I bought the R4 because I wanted to use my DS as a daytimer. I downloaded one of them home brew apps and tried to get it to work. After pulling out the very little hair I had left, I broke down and took the DS and the R4 back to the place I got it from (XSkin). The guy there got it to work. It required some translator files.

After all that, I found the daytimer software to be too cumbersome to use and now use the R4 primarily to listen to MP3's.

Like you, I have a Mac. Find a PC with a tray type CD player. Copy the files to a USB flash drive. Copy the contents to your Mac. Or scrap all that and find the files on line. To transfer files from your computer to DS, use the supplied usb card reader. The card shows up on the desktop and everything is drag and drop.

hope this helps

Good advice except for the CD part. You don't need the files on the CD, just use the latest version found on the link you provided. Download the English kernel, unzip it, copy the files over, and you're done.

yeeeehaw.
i got it to work :D
I had to go to my office to use there comp (snuck in 3 hours before openeing lol)

SKINNY: FYI, when a mac user downloads the kernel file off the website, it is a .rar file. for some reason my computer couldnt unzip it.

ITS ALL GOOD!
Now the games are figured out, now for the other stuff!

just to let u ugys know as of last night the zellers in metro ran out of every single DS. My frd went and try to buy it last night(she wants to get it now and then get a price adjustment whent eh sale is on coz she is she scare thaere might be none left during the sale). When she got there she find out they were sold out.

I read on redflagsdeals that each zellers will be getting aorund 30 to 40 of DSL b4 the sale which I don't think will be enough.

Just wondering anyone know which zellers still have them in stock?

games on my r4 crash/freeze up from time to time.. any idea on why its doing this?

^^ did u update the firmware.

i have the same problem.
i honestly don't know if it is my r4 or my ds. been happening ever since i updated from 1.08 (whatever version came from the CD I ordered from SkinnyPupp).

My guess would be your DS.

my r4 is running ver. 1.11 right now. U should try updating it from the website.

or you could just go to FS, and get them to beat the zellers price by a 10% difference...that's what i did on the bridgeport FS

you'll lose out on that $10 facebook coupon tho... but at least FS has a shitload in stock

yea some ppl on redflag actually went to futureshop to price match since they are givig out lego wars for free with the purchase on a new DSL. Pretty good deal for them 109.99 for the ds and the they got a free game.

How much is it from XSkin?

The DSL new pirce is 109.99. It have been conform that is going to be the new price.

I might trade in my old DS plus some games and get another DSL for free ^_^

LOL the new DS price is going to kill RS 2nd hand DS.

Everyone: Try the game LOONEY TUNES DUCK AMUCK it is great!

I went n got a new DSL last night, traded in my old DSL which had scratches n stuff on the screen n paid $11.29 for a brand new one =)

where at? eb? was looking into trading a old DS + games for a new ds lite lol

any ED
I just trade my old DSphat and 3 games paid 5 bucks more a new DSL.

U can trade in ur old dsl(value $100) for a new DSL as well. This is really good for the ppl who abuse their DSL as they can get a new one by just paying 10 bucks.

i was just wondering...if i got a new DSL and just plugged in my super card lite, would it work?

if you have the passcard then yes

Does Xskin have good quality screen protector? I got one from night market and it is not that great. I find it with the screen protector it is harder to play games with the styuls(not as accurate and I have to tab a lot harder).

The best screen protector by far is the one from HORI. Trust me, I have used them ALL. It's made in Japan, triple layered, and totally clear. It doesn't interfere with the stylus at all.

My RS price for everyone here is $8, including shipping. PM me if interested!

Cheaper than the other two stores that are beside it.

I don't really want to post prices here because it may cause problems.

I got Hori screen protectors from XSkin in Crystal Mall at substantial savings. The XSkin kiosk in Metrotown does not give price breaks or deals. I believe the people who man it are just hired help.

Anyway.....

+1 for the Hori screen protector. I liked it so much I bought my gf one for her NDSL.

I'll hit up XSkin this weekend. Thanks for the info guys!

I've been to XSKIN in Crystal Mall numerous times. I can't tell if the Hori is real or fake, but I just assume it's real to save myself stress.

The guy there is Jackie (last time I checked) and he's really nice. If a certain item is out of stock at the one at Crystal, he will tell you to goto the XSKIN in Metro and to tell them he sent you to get the same price.

you got pm
