If none of the Nintendo 3DS Game Cards work, or if there are several that do not work properly on your Nintendo 3DS system, the system is faulty. If there is no option for testing various Game Cards or Nintendo 3DS systems, the fault may be directly with the Nintendo 3DS system or with the Nintendo 3DS Game Card. I have been having some issues lately getting my R4i card detected on my DS/3DS systems. I have a legitimate card and have had no problems in the past on current 3DS firmware and on the DS but lately it will not connect. I read that sometimes the systems have trouble reading the cards due to the pins not contacting and advised putting paper on.

Our experience - (1) Recommend to use for console system no higher than 10.7, official install software does not work; (2) Use original SD memory card for flashing; (3) Connect your power adapter to do this flashing; (4) Step 18, DSP1 - zoogie blue screen does not show up when console at low system version; (5) If your console shows error 'Failed to apply 1 FIRM patch(es)', recommend to revert to stock firmware till new official software comes out, or ask for our help.
