      For those of you with 3DS with upgraded firmware (3.0.0-6, etc) who are getting the black screen error (push and hold power button to turn off...), have you actually gone through the process to upgrade your R4i-3DS to the latest version?
      This is not simply a case of copying the files to the SDHC, but also there's a procedure to click upgrade button within the settings of the card's UI, which it seems can only be done on a DS/i/Lite, not a 3DS.
      (a bit old version, but basic idea shown around 4 mins of here R4i SDHC upgrade Method for DSi V1.4.3 and 3DS V2.1.0-4U - YouTube )

      Could it be you copied over the new kernel files but haven't actually done this upgrade procedure, so the 3DS with new firmware is still seeing the old kernel?

      please read what is wrote. It is so simple. You need other 3DS without update (version 2) or someones DSI , DS lite. And in this , you have to done update CARD.

      and when you tell people what they need to do, say which people need to do that. Some people have different cards which is a different way.

      Is this upgrade really provided by the Nintendo company? Does it really work as good as you are saying?
