1) Confusion about R4 III – Update, R4 III SDHC and R4 SDHC.
These three cards are totally different from each other. Make no mistake about them.
2) It appears “the file name is too long, please reduce” when you insert the R4 SDHC update.
While this is happening, you can back up all your files to your hard drive, format your SD card, and reinstall the firmware.
3) R4 SDHC Upgrade Revolution is not an official card but one of those shitty clone cards.
4) The R4 SDHC update runs the latest R4i firmware.
R4 SDHC update may fail to create a save file for Assassins Creed, when restarting dsi. So the screen is red. When connected to the laptop, the micro SD card showed no files but no free space either. Formatted with the Panasonic tool and reinstalled the firmware and games, and then it was fine for about an hour, at which point it did the same thing while loading a level on the skateboard. Sometimes there will be such a word “MENU??”.
The message “MENU??” shows that your download is not successful. You probably didn’t extract the “R4i English V1.11b” to the root directory of the TF card. Remember the root directory of the TF card! Many people’s extraction software will create a “R4i English V1.11b” folder.
Also, please carefully follow the STEPS below:
i> Micro SD card format
ii> Go to download from an online website of R4.
The Kernel software of R4-SDHC and R4i-SDHC is the same: V1. 11b
There are two “download” columns on this page, please choose the left column, Release Date: [2009-9-29]
iii> Download and extract the “R4i English V1.11b” to TF card. Please confirm that there are the following files in the root directory of the TF card
(Warning):
moon-memo —Subdirectory
moonshl2 —Subdirectory
R4iMenu —Subdirectory
R4 —DAT file
In short, compared to other R4 series cards, R4 III SDHC, r4 iii upgrade, R4 SDHC and r4i gold, R4 SDHC Upgrade is not very good. It may be your second option. I highly recommend you to buy other series of R4 cards, such as R4 III SDHC and r4 iii upgrade.
