Jan 16 17:52:10 <tj9991|279232-942775> how do i get flashme to act like a passme
Jan 16 17:52:19 <tj9991|279232-942775> i have a passme, but i also have flashme on it
Jan 16 17:52:30 <tj9991|279232-942775> and with the passme it wiggles around and makes my ds think i took the cart out
Jan 16 17:52:50 <sithael> isnt that the point of flashme?
Jan 16 17:52:54 <sithael> to not use a passme
Jan 16 17:53:26 <tj9991|279232-942775> well the cart has code that needs to be ran before the booting of the nds
Jan 16 17:54:03 <tj9991|279232-942775> do i still need to use the passme?
Jan 16 17:54:09 <tj9991|279232-942775> i just dont like how it wiggles
Jan 16 17:54:33 <sithael> dont think so
Jan 16 17:54:47 <sithael> but then again, ive only read up on it and not done it myself
Jan 16 17:55:01 <sithael> gonna flash mine right now if i understood engrish better
Jan 16 17:55:05 <housephly|laptop> what?
Jan 16 17:56:35 <tj9991|279232-942775> i guess ill just keep putting reeses cardboard slips between the passme and the ds
Jan 16 17:56:41 <tj9991|279232-942775> to keep it from sliding around
Jan 16 17:59:25 <housephly|laptop> why are you not flashing it, tj9991|279232-942775
Jan 16 18:00:04 <tj9991|279232-942775> already is flashed
Jan 16 18:00:16 <housephly|laptop> then why are you using the passme still?
Jan 16 18:00:27 <tj9991|279232-942775> because i cant get it to act like a passme
Jan 16 18:00:32 <tj9991|279232-942775> theres code i need to be ran on the gba cart
Jan 16 18:00:38 <tj9991|279232-942775> then i need it to boot the nds
Jan 16 18:01:30 <housephly|laptop> hold down a,b,x,y when you power the unit on (without the passme in)
Jan 16 18:01:43 <tj9991|279232-942775> i tried that
Jan 16 18:01:45 <tj9991|279232-942775> gives me a white screen
Jan 16 18:01:47 <tj9991|279232-942775> and stays at it
Jan 16 18:01:56 <housephly|laptop> with the flash cart in?
Jan 16 18:02:02 <tj9991|279232-942775> yes
Jan 16 18:02:03 <housephly|laptop> what cart are you using?
Jan 16 18:02:13 <tj9991|279232-942775> ezflash ii powerstar
Jan 16 18:02:48 <housephly|laptop> firmwares are up to date? what version of flashme did you flash with?
Jan 16 18:03:07 <tj9991|279232-942775> used to have v5, now its v6
Jan 16 18:03:11 <tj9991|279232-942775> and i have the old firmware
Jan 16 18:03:19 <housephly|laptop> old firmware for what?
Jan 16 18:03:22 <housephly|laptop> ez flash?
Jan 16 18:03:23 <tj9991|279232-942775> ds
Jan 16 18:03:53 <housephly|laptop> are there firmwares for the ezflash>
Jan 16 18:04:10 <tj9991|279232-942775> i doubt it
Jan 16 18:04:17 <tj9991|279232-942775> i havent seen any if there is
Jan 16 18:04:19 <housephly|laptop> mine only does the two white screens thing when it doesn't have the flash cart in the gba slot
Jan 16 18:21:06 <module> i think im going to order a supercard
Jan 16 18:21:12 <Deathwind> can you specify how you flash your EZFlash? ABXY on FlashMe will jump to 0xC0 on the GBA flash cart and run the code there as DS code
Jan 16 18:21:49 <Deathwind> then again I think the passme is supposed to use that same address, so I don't know why it would work in one and not the other
Jan 16 18:25:22 <tj9991|279232-942775> i used the passme to flash it
Jan 16 18:25:26 <tj9991|279232-942775> err no
Jan 16 18:25:29 <tj9991|279232-942775> i did that for v6
Jan 16 18:25:34 <tj9991|279232-942775> first time i put v5 on was with wifime
Jan 16 18:29:53 <Deathwind> rename the .nds to .nds.gba, then use ezclient and uncheck multirom and flash your cart, then see if that boots with ABXY on flashme
Jan 16 18:30:09 <housephly|laptop> you didn't need to use anything to flash it the second time fyi
Jan 16 18:30:49 <module> with a passme2 you can flash your ds right (new ds)
Jan 16 18:31:04 <Deathwind> yeah
Jan 16 18:31:16 <Deathwind> you have to program the passme2 for a specific game cartridge though
Jan 16 18:31:35 <module> but the passme2 comes with a programmer
Jan 16 18:31:44 <Deathwind> depends on which passme2 it is
Jan 16 18:31:59 <module> the one on the site im thinking of buying from does
Jan 16 18:40:47 <tj9991|279232-942775> the file is .ds.gba
Jan 16 18:40:56 <tj9991|279232-942775> i tried renaming it to .nds.gba and reflashing
Jan 16 18:40:58 <tj9991|279232-942775> no difference
Jan 16 18:41:32 <Deathwind> do you have multirom off? and do you know if the nds file has any loaders/patches applied?
Jan 16 18:41:41 <tj9991|279232-942775> yes, multirom is off
Jan 16 18:41:49 <tj9991|279232-942775> and I don't know if it has any loaders or stuff like that in it
Jan 16 18:41:55 <tj9991|279232-942775> its the mario kart ds hack for the offline courses
Jan 16 18:42:13 <Deathwind> hmm
Jan 16 18:42:24 <Deathwind> probably not then
Jan 16 18:42:31 <Deathwind> not sure why it's not booting in that case
