- Be me
- Buy cheapest R4 on the internet
- Go try to install the correct kernel thinking is going to be really easy
- Spend a whole day trying zillions of different kernels always getting the "?menu" or "error" screens
- Had already decided to give up and turn that useless piece of plastic into a keyring or something
- At 11pm was already about to sleep when the seller replied to my message asking for the correct kernel
- Downloaded the kernel from r4i-sdhc dot com
- It finally worked showing up the menu
- Games still not working. Multiple errors every time i tried playing a rom
- Tried lots of solutions like changing the date to avoid time bomb and the title of the files to take out special characters
- Still getting every game stuck on load screen
- Downloaded YS menu
- IT FINALLY WORKED. I could get to run the few games i put in the sd card to test it
- So, i tought since it was working, it was time to put all the roms i've been downloading since i bought the cart and was waiting for it to arrive. (Just 152 games, not really much you know)
- The games don't work anymore, even the ones i was able to run before. Everytime i try to run a game i get "rom loading failed errcode: -1 please reset system"
- Create an account on gbatemp to desperately beg for help
I just don't want to give up at this point after getting so close to get it to work
I'm attaching a picture of the cart. That little bastard is so cheap the label came with the wrong cut and not even glued
EDIT:
- I formatted the sd card and repeated the process that worked the first time
- I put only 2 games in the card and it worked
- When i put the other 150 games the same error started happening again
Is it a problem with the number of games? Is there a chance that it's just a single specific game file causing this?
It sucks because i still have my old 2gb TT cart working perfectly and the only reason i bought this new one with 32gb support is because i wanted to have tons of games loaded in the same cart without having to ration memory
LAST UPDATE (at least by now)
I deleted all the games and got back to having only few of them in the sd card and it's all working perfectly fine. I'm gonna be putting the games little by little in the cart by now so i hope i can figure if it's a problem with a specific file or with the amount of games
