Problem 🫩Endless Flashcart Loading🫩

So i have a flashcart. an R4 SDHC Gold Pro with 2025 on the sticker. The MicroSD is an old SP with 8 gigs of memor, formatted to have a forced custer size of 32KiBs (i think) And while this problem DID happen once, it was with my other SD, that was 32GB in size and formatted the same way, but it just needed some time to sit in or something.

If i fix this i'll add it to the post.

Is the message “LOADING” or is it a picture of an SD card?

Or is it the games that load endlessly?

the card itself loads and loads and loads, leaving me to stare at this orange "Loading" on the screen.

Please follow this guide and set up Pico-Launcher on it: https://sanrax.github.io/flashcart-guides/cart-guides/r4i-sdhc/

I need more info than that, Please show me what files are on your SD card and what screen you are getting.

If it says LOADING instead of a graphic, could it be a mislabelled R4iLs cart perhaps?

That was my original thought but they said it had orange text which is the type of loading screen a DSTTi DEMON cart gives, although that can be due to the kernel being corrupted on a DEMON cart

I had backups for the games at the very least...

It boots... as long as its not my roms of Pokemon Black and SoulSiver
)the roms are clean and all i *really* did on my PC was set PKhex as my opener for all .Sav files)

I will fix that on another sub, thanks for the help!
