20 Most Recent Nintendo DSi Black Console Questions & Answers

1. Action Replay Not Staying Inserted:
   • The issue with the Action Replay not staying inserted into the DSi may be due to a loose or damaged cartridge slot on the DSi or an issue with the Action Replay cartridge itself.
   • Check the Action Replay cartridge for any visible damage, including bent pins or connectors. If you find any, it may need to be repaired or replaced.
   • Try inserting other game cartridges into your DSi to see if they fit securely. If other cartridges also don't stay in place, it could indicate a problem with the DSi's cartridge slot.
2. DSi Not Recognizing Game Cartridge:
   • If your DSi doesn't recognize that there's a game in the slot, this could be related to the Action Replay cartridge, or it could be a more general issue with the DSi.
   • Test this issue with regular game cartridges that are known to work. If the DSi still doesn't recognize them, there may be a problem with the cartridge slot.
   • If other game cartridges work fine, the issue may be specific to the Action Replay. In this case, you should contact the manufacturer or distributor for support or a replacement.

In either case, if the problem persists, you may want to consider having your DSi and Action Replay inspected or repaired by a professional technician, or contact Nintendo's customer support for further assistance. Make sure to follow their guidance and ensure that your DSi and accessories are in good working condition.

Dust and/or dirt got into the shoulder button. Just blow hard into the space between the shoulder button and where it hits the system.

Before any of the following, try either simply blowing on the button (where it meets the case) really hard (don't spit in it) or blow compressed air into it. No need to spend 60-70 bucks when youve got dirt in there. Mine stopped working last night on an airplane while my girlfriend was playing prime pinball. I did a little bit o research and found http://schlaghund.wordpress.com/2008/03/27/low-tech-ds-lite-lr-button-fix/
It worked like a charm. no need to pull it apart.

First, you will need to get a hold of a trigram screwdriver.

If the button clicks but doesn't respond, likely the inside button is broken. you will probably have to get a hold of some new ones.

From here you'll have to remove the old buttons and solder in the new ones.

tengo problemas al intentar poner mi ds a internet

hi the files are outdated by th sounds of it.if your ds has been updated to the latest firmware it may not work either.ill give you a link R4 Card R4i SDHC 3DS Card in UK 3 99 with free shipping Recommend and Guide to Choose Best R4 Cards for 3DS DSi DS

It is possibly either dirty or bent contacts in the cartridge slot. If the game slides in and out easily then the pins are possibly not bent.... if it does not the pins are bent and you will need the slot replaced or replace the unit. You can use a Emery board (Yes nail file) push the board in and of of the cartridge slot. Make sure the motion is only in and out no side to side or you risk bending the pins. Hope this helps.

Go to linfoxdomain, and check that you have the right software for the r4i gold, thats the only thing that can be wrong with r4i gold if you have loaded the games right, have you unzipped all the games, if you have done all that right it must be the card,

Here is no hope in this case. Sorry.
