Untested instructions for using the G6 to boot homebrew on a DS with new firmware:

add the homebrew program as a gba rom using the g6 software.
replace the savefile it creates (the .0 file) with a copy of the sram.bin padded to the same size.
Boot the G6 in GBA mode (no passkey inserted).
load the program.
insert passkey.
press and hold the button on the g6.
turn off ds.
turn on ds.

tomorrow i am going to trade my ds for anotherone because i have a dead pixel on it.

i also have a g6flash and a passme

but i where afraid that i would get a new ds with new firmware on it.
and i can't use my passme anymore and i can't also upgrade my firmware.

but do you think that it will also work for me?
so i could upgrade my firmware on a ds with new firmware?
and zould i use my passme for it? or do i have to buy a passkey??

i hope you can help me
