    very probably a contact problem with the r4ds and ds that cant read it .

    is there any dust or dirt in the slot of the ds ?

    if not then the paper trick might work , as follows -

    cut a piece of thin card the same width as your r4ds but about 1 inch longer than your r4ds .

    now put the card on the side of the r4ds sticker and insert them both into your ds .

    what this does is very slightly push the r4ds closer to the cotacts inside your ds .
