    ---Sorry if this is in the wrong spot, I'm getting used to this forum, If it is tell me where this topic should go, thanks---

    Does anyone have any idea, estimate or w/e about when the next akaio firmware will come out.
    I know RC2 came out last week but whenever I load a game on RC2 or RC1 it freezes at the loading screen. Norm, I think, or someone said that in the next public firmware release it'll fix that. Just wondering anyways because I hate the AK offical firmware.

    Thankyou.

    Try doing this.

    Just download the firmware and loaders.

    Firmware - http://www.akaio.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=557&f=8
    Loaders - http://akaio.net/loaders/

    This is what should be on your AK2i Micro SD card root.

    I have highlighted the files/folders that you need to have.
    You don't have to have an NDS folder, but it's recommended that you do.

    Here is what should be in your _aio folder.

    And what should be in your loaders folder.

    Alright thanks, does this work for 2.1?
    So it could really be released like from tomorrow till 2 months? I'll try this now.

    Alright cool, I'm trying now. I just had to finish off a kingdom hearts level.
    I have my doubts about this seeing as though this was posted on the akaio forums:
    "Posted by agent orange: Firmware version: 1.6 Release Candidate 2
    Loader version: 1.6 RC 2 loaders
    Acekard type: Acekard 2.1
    Description of problem: Freezes at green loading screen
    Steps to reproduce: Try to play any game
    Debugged: Formatted SD card, removed and replace 1.6 RC2, used different loaders
    Other: I don't think it's a clone or fake cart since I have not run across any error messages related to them."

    "Posted by FawkYew RTFM: the ak2.1 sold after dec 09 which has a hwid of 80 had some different hardware. it has been fixed and these cards will work correctly in the next public build of akaio. so sit tight...."

    Seeing as though I got my AK 2.1 last month...
    Anyways I'm still going to try this :)

    It still freezes on the green loading screen after I select any game.
    Thanks for your help, now I just have to wait for the next akaio, who know's when that'll be.

    Did you put the latest loaders in the /_aio/loaders folder?

    Yep. Didn't work.
    It doesn't really worry me, Kingdom Hearts still saves and Mario Party. Only ones that don't on my SD is: Pokemon Platinum, Heartgold. LEGO Rockband, Mario Kart DS.
    Thanks.
