My problem is random, and it kills me. Well not that random. There must be an answer. I am happy to just find out what the problem is, but I may as well forget about even working with 3D on the DS. I have an "ultra 1G Flash Card" from flash2advance, and a PassMe (lovely device). I burn the *.nds.gba file in a program called "F2APowerWriter", and I get white screens on both screens when I use any libNDS GL calls in my source. Sometimes randomly as I said above, the code will run, but if I want to add anything to the code at that point, I am back to white screens.
The *.NDS always work in the emulator E*****.
I want to know if it is my flash cart that is bad? Anyone care to test my binary on real hardware?
EDIT: typos

Try removing the swiWaitForVBlank; I've never had any ill effects from leaving it out.

Sorry. That is not the problem. Having swiWaitForVBlank will save battery time. Enough with that now.
I need people to test my nds.gba on the real hardware to see if the problem is my flash cart or not.

Thank you ^^
Question:
You just flashed my compiled polygl.nds.gba without modifications?

yes :)
also work fine on grey ds with same ezflash and nds magic key

Okay. So something is wrong with my F2A Ultra 1G Flash Card, or F2APowerWriter program. If I only could uncheck the "Fix Data" option in the config dialog.
I hate this. Now i need people that have the same flash cart as me, and the same program to test it. Remember that my flash cart is 1gb, and if that is the problem, I may be able to switch it with my brothers 256mb f2a flash card.
People, please help if you have time!

Works fine on a 128Mb F2A using F2A Writer (F2A Power Writer never worked properly for me).

Thanks!
Question: Where can I get F2A Writer?
Maybe that program will be the solution!

I don't know where to get F2A Writer, but I currently use LittleWriter with my Visoly Flash Advance Pro 256 Mbit cart. (The first F2A carts are identical to Visoly FA Pro.)

If this isn't working, then I guess the only problem is that the flash cart is 1gb.

Okay I hate this. 1GB flash card is not working with that old F2A Writer. I tried to understand LittleWriter that good, as it seemed only 256mb was supported.
It looks like there is no hope for 1gb. I am going to switch it with my brothers in hope it will work.
Until then, no DS testing for me ;.;

I made a file compare between the original polygl.nds.gba and the binary after I flashed it:

Is this why I get white screens at bootup? What can be wrong? Linker or flash cart?
