*'''Clone''' flashcarts are copies of original cards. Example: the M3 Simply is a clone of the original R4 DS. Systems that run on the R4 DS run the same way on the M3 Simply.
*'''Clone''' flashcarts are copies of other original cards (i.e., the M3 Simply is a clone of the Original R4 DS. Systems that run on the R4 DS run the same way on the M3 Simply).
*A '''fake''' flashcart is a device that steals the name of an original card, but that is nothing like it. Example: the R4 Upgrade is a fake R4 DS, it is not compatible with any of the system files available for the R4 DS (a fake card uses its own separate system files).
*A '''fake''' flashcart is a device that steals the name of a well-known original card, which is nothing like it. (i.e., the R4 Upgrade is a fake R4 DS that is not compatible with any of the system files available for the Original R4 DS (a fake card uses its own separate system files)).
*A card can be both a clone and a fake. Most fake R4 cards are clones of the Acekard 2i and DSTT.
*There are instances where it can be a clone of a clone, which means that the card is a clone of an original card that is fake. Many flashcarts sold today are either clones of the Original R4 DS (Ace3DS+ and R4 DS Pro) and DSTT(i) (R4i-SDHC, www.r4i-sdhc.com).
 
==Ace3DS (Original)==
:Clone of the DSTT(i). This card should not be confused with the most popular [[Ace3DS Plus]] cards.
:Its circuit board is identical to that of the R4i 3DS Unlimited Upgradable and R4i New ''Genaration'' V2.55 cards from r4i-gold.hk, as well as the R4i V1.41 from ndsiLL.net. Both firmware updates are cross exchangeable with one another.

==Ace3DS+==
:Clone of the R4 i.L.S. with backwards compatibility for DSi and 3DS models.
:This cart is not longer produced by the Ace Team; however, clones are being sold today usually as 'xxx-in-1 multicards' or without a label.

1.43 flasher (upgrade package) for 3DS and DSi 1.4.3 compatibility available there as well. WARNING: I have personally tried the flasher and it bricked my R4i. I'll try getting it to work, but assume that it will brick yours as well. So unless your card was pre-flashed to work on the 3DS, I don't recommend updating, yet. Kernels are fine though, it's the "upgrade package" (illto143.nds) that's not working for me.
 
EDIT::
I can confirm this also happened to me and i am unable to get it back working (DO NOT UPDATE) I did hear that we can get it working if we use another R4 card but only from one website and i chose to buy another GENUINE card
 
Also support from ndsill.net is 0%,, i wouldnt buy from them or touch their cards again... Brought by mistake and bad company imo

 This page may need to be updated with the newest available information. 
 Please edit the page with new information and remove this Template when finished! 

This page will attempt to provide a comprehensive guide to which firmware, kernel or system files you need to download for your flashcart. We prioritize updated operating systems over the official and unsupported ones. For example, we would rather direct users to Wood R4 rather than the original R4 system files which haven't been updated for years.

The list should be sorted alphabetically.

Clones & Fakes

  • Clone flashcarts are copies of other original cards (i.e., the M3 Simply is a clone of the Original R4 DS. Systems that run on the R4 DS run the same way on the M3 Simply).
  • A fake flashcart is a device that steals the name of a well-known original card, which is nothing like it. (i.e., the R4 Upgrade is a fake R4 DS that is not compatible with any of the system files available for the Original R4 DS (a fake card uses its own separate system files)).
  • There are instances where it can be a clone of a clone, which means that the card is a clone of an original card that is fake. Many flashcarts sold today are either clones of the Original R4 DS (Ace3DS+ and R4 DS Pro) and DSTT(i) (R4i-SDHC, www.r4i-sdhc.com).

Ace3DS (Original)

Clone of the DSTT(i). This card should not be confused with the most popular Ace3DS Plus cards.
Its circuit board is identical to that of the R4i 3DS Unlimited Upgradable and R4i New Genaration V2.55 cards from r4i-gold.hk, as well as the R4i V1.41 from ndsiLL.net. Both firmware updates are cross exchangeable with one another.

Ace3DS+

Clone of the R4 i.L.S. with backwards compatibility for DSi and 3DS models.
This cart is not longer produced by the Ace Team; however, clones are being sold today usually as 'xxx-in-1 multicards' or without a label.

DS Fire 2

Clone of the Acekard 2(i).

DSTT Advance

DSTT Fakes

E7

Clone of the N5 DS, which is also a poorly made clone of the R4-SDHC. Likely by the same team.
