This is a request for flashcart_core to support the R4 SDHC 3DS DSI 2014 Dual Core (http://www.r4isdhc.com.cn)

ChipID: Not sure how to get.
HW Revision: Not sure how to get.

The website appears to be closely associated with r4isdhc.com.

GM9 Untrimmed Dump: Unable to provide as I don't have CFW. However the file below is the "kernel" that their website providers users with.
wood-v162.rar.zip

On a sidenote: I see the file: https://github.com/kitling/flashcart_core/blob/master/devices/r4sdhc_dualcore.cpp however I'm not sure if it'd support this cart.

I am willing to be a tester for support of this cart

That source is for the r4isdhc.hk carts. If this is related to the r4isdhc.com/r4i-sdhc.com carts, then we are making progress on those carts.

@KitLing So to confirm this card is basically identical and will most likely work with it? I want to play with NTRBootHax and appreciate what the homebrew community is doing.

[kitlith]

@nsuchy If this is related. I give no such guarantees. Feel free to look at the PCBs of the other carts and figure that out for yourself.

[elaine-jackson]

@KitLing I understand, I'll check the PCBs, is that firmware file I gave you exactly the same?

[kitlith]

I. Don't. Know.

In any case, what you gave me is the 'kernel', not the firmware. If it's similar to the other carts I mentioned, then that's to be expected -- they do their updates inside of their kernel.

[elaine-jackson]

@KitLing Thank you for clarifying. If there is a .NDS file I can run to give you chip id number or anything you'd like me to test let me know.

I found this datasheet on my card if that helps http://www.datasheet4u.com/datasheet-pdf/MacronixInternational/25L1605D/pdf.php?id=689040

This is an ace3ds clone iirc. Can you please try the ace3ds kernel?
BTW, I brought one too, should arrive this week.

[elaine-jackson]

@trbocode Sure, mind sending me a link?

[elaine-jackson]

@trbocode Downloading now and will post an update shortly. Filetrip is such a slow filehost :/

[elaine-jackson]

Unfortunately even after renaming _DS_MENU.DAT to _dsmenu.dat (I tried on both kernels) it would not load and showed an error message.

My working old file system. Only the flasher doesn't work.
Old File System.zip
the card cannot load the kernel. I tried using both kernels V2.13

[elaine-jackson]

@trbocode ^^^

[trbocode]

The cart looks very similar to the Ace and the gateway blue card, still.

[elaine-jackson]

it has a very similar kernel too. That being said do you have any ideas on flashing the NTRBoot firmware to it?

[trbocode]

No.
Maybe try the gateway kernel

[elaine-jackson]

@trbocode Still no luck, that's why I've requested support for my specific cart.

This issue's images (https://github.com/kitling/flashcart_core/issues/33) confirms my cart is actually a relabeled Ace3ds Plus. This can be closed :)
