DS Flash Equipment > Passkey 2 and DS cart problems

#89043 - sonic moose - Thu Jun 22, 2006 9:30 pm

Okay, so I am the owner of a passkey 2 and I have some questions.

One, I heard the Passkey 2 can break the DS cart slot. Is this true? How does it do it?

Two, I put two carts into my Passkey 2 and when I took them out the gold contacts had deep black lines on them... is this normal? Are my carts damaged? Will they eventually die?

Three, if I flash my lite will I lose anything (features) or are there any bugs? And can someone direct me to a VERY through guide beyond that monroe/video guide?

Thanks in advance, the second question is most important to me by the way. If I could get some answers to that atleast, that'd be great.

I suggest not flashing your Lite, as there have been rumors of sound volume decreasing, and WMB don't finish downloading anymore.

I have an EZPass 2 and my Ping Pals cartridge has experienced the same. But then again it's Ping Pals, so it doesn't really matter what kind of damage it sustains.
