Don't use the CD. Go to m3's website and download the latest from there. The CD is an old version.

 

i tryed that too and i also tryed using a different micro sd card and still nothing

 

someone pplleeaaassseee help me iv been waiting for this stupid thing to get in the mail for 4 weeks and i get it and i cant figure out whats wrong

 

hi well theres a couple thing it could be.

are you taking the files out of the SYSTEM folder?
if yes you should be putting the whole SYSTEM folder in the memory card after you download it here is a direct link to the latest system files it should start the download immediatelty

formatting how are you doing it?
if your using vista it has problems sometimes when it comes to formatting memory card and putting data on them if you can use an xp computer

and when formatting try fat 32 first if you still have problems with the system files try fat 16 i believe it is

Other possibilities.

you memory card could be a fake whered you get it?

your m3 real could be damaged or poorly made.
you should contact the seller and try to have yours replaced if all else fails

try different system files.
there is a hacked version of the m3 real japenese sakura files wich works with the m3 real in english you can try that its really neat im going to be using it myself
they can be found here

also what micro sd are you using there could be compatiablity issues.

 

try this firmware mate its what i have on my m3ds real - http://gbatemp.net/index.php?download=2553

its the new sakura firmware for the m3ds real and it seems a lot quicker than the original m3ds real firmware !

once downloaded unrar it and copy the SYSTEM folder to your memory card , thats it firmware done , easy as that .

to play nds roms you will need to create a NDS folder on your memory card and then put your nds roms in there , easy as that .

if you dont like the sakura firmware you can always put the original firmware V3.7D back on , you can get that from here mate - http://gbatemp.net/index.php?download=2526

same again unrar it and copy the SYSTEM folder to your memory card , thats it firmware done , easy as that .

any more questions or probs let me know , woof811.

 

ok i tryed both the systems u guys gave me to try n this is what happened, the first one g6&m3ds real said exactly

[language: chinese]

i got the system files from here http://gbatemp.net/index.php?download=2553

fusk.... they sent me a fusking jap one and i cant put englush files on it!!!!! i just tryed putting the jap one on and it works now!!!! please please tell me theres a way to make it work in english

 

you could have bought a chinese m3real by mistake iff so try these firmwares -

it the chineses version i cant read the guide because it is blocked at my school but hopefully this helps you out

http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=63782&st=30

its says convert chinese m3 real into english and vice versa

it might include soldering wires hopefully not but also look around in gbatemp i know they have custom firmware for the cards sumtimes maybe they will have a hacked english m3 real system files that works on the chinese version

 

omfg thank you you are my lord and saviour if this works lol

 

alright so the patch kinda worked... it boots up n stuff now but when it gets to the screen where u should be able to select what u want to do, like the very first one, its there for a second then goes black and the m3 logo sits on the top screen so ima try lownloading the firmware again

 

hmmmmmmmmmmm never having bought a chinese m3ds real ( always bought english versions ), whats it like when you boot up using chinese firmware ?

is everything in chinese ie. menu , icons , nds rom names , etc....?

sorry for the questions , but was just wondering if you could get away with using chinese firmware for just playing nds roms ?

woof811.

 

alright so sakura works totaly great but the other firmare just gets the black screen so if someone knows how i might b able to fix that ill b all set... if not i will just use sakura i guess

 

everything was in japanese yes lol. but i got a patch for the startup file that changes the region so everything is in english now kuz i had to use a jap system b4... and i should be able to play the roms ill try one n get back to u just dling some now

 

someones gota help lol i have been searching forums n web for hours and i cant find anyone with this problem

 

what are you trying to do ?
