Action replay soul silver not working?

I just got my Dsi Action Replay today. I took it home and put it in to my Dsi with soul silver in the action replay. I checked off the cheats I wanted and pressed start game with codes then the title thing played and it went to the options screen. I chose my file and the screen turned white and it played the title screen again and then I went to my file and pressed a and it started and it went to the game but the cheats didn't work. What happened and how can I fix it?

You really might want to consider taking this question to the Action Replay forum. You'll have a lot better luck getting a good answer there, seeing as there are people there that know a lot about the action replay. Just start a topic there, and ask the same question you did here. Should get a good answer within a day or two. I'll provide a link to the forum, if you need it.

I'm no expert on the action replay, but have you tried using less cheats? Maybe it's too many and that's what's messing it up.

I am too. The built in codes work. I inputted some myself, but they don't work. I don't have the usb to attach the cartridge to the application, so I have to input them by hand. I got this soley to play the old Events that are lost to time.

you have to press the start button to get to your file thing in SS
Guest answered:

It the codes work when you do new game

Guest answered:

my friend said you need to up date it

Guest answered:

Having the same issue....it reboots twice (it asks you if you want to boot the game w/codes, you say yes, it restarts-when you press Continue to continue previous games, it reboots, losing all cheat codes.

How is it so many are having problems w/this one? What is the solution?
1) delete all codes and start from scratch manually?
2) uncheck some codes, and see if any work?
3) where do the code combos go? on the PC program that manages the Action Replay?

Guest answered:

yeah mine was working yesterday, and i turned it off to eat turned it back on with cheats and when i clicked the buton to enable the cheat nothing happend please help me!?

Guest answered:

I had the same exact thing happen on my Pearl version! I had to restart my game of two and a half years and then my AR didn't work! Really frustrated cause I bought the AR yesterday.

Guest answered:

Solved it!!!!! At least I think, if you have the change pokegear code on it fails.. I'm not sure why, but I turned it off and it fixed my game!

YAY IT WORKED FINALLY
Guest answered:

I have a fix but you have to use a DSlite for this to work with the AR DSI and Soul Silver. Remove the GBA slot insert (or any game you have in that slot so the slot is totally empty). Start the DSI with the AR and Game in the slot...select your codes, load and bam. Worked for me just now.

There is a DSI ONLY AR you can use, and a DS and DS lite one. Make sure you got the right kind.
Guest answered:

Well you just TAKE OFF the pokegear code then it won't go to white screen or anything like that all your codes put on will work but if that doesn't work you have to many mabey if it's not any of those go to the thing online and hit the icon and hit action replay reset ok=D

Wrong you need to upgrade your ar.
Guest answered:

For DSi action replay, all you do is press down the y, x, a, b buttons, and the keypad plus l and r. Hold it down until a blue screen appears.

Guest answered:

Hey dose anybody know what is the (pressL and R) or press select huh? Plz answer this cause idk what it is and mine wont work either

Guest answered:

This just happened to mine, using a DSi ar and it was weird because it worked on my friend's soulsilver but suddenly stopped working on my heartgold.

FIXED IT by turning off all the codes other than the one I wanted, the exp code, and it seems to be working now. One of the codes I didn't know was on was for pokegear color, so that might've been it.

Guest answered:

Mine doesnt have pokegear cheats?

Guest answered:

I tried everything and it's still not working I am so sad some on help me.....
