Ok, I just got a passme2 and we trying to install flashme v5 on a silver ds. When I was trying to install it I got it to 1% and then it stopped and i freaked and shut it off. WHY I DID THIS IDK. Can anyone please help. Please, quickly its my bros ds not mine.

There's a _very_ slim chance you might be able to recover from it. Try to install flashme again, but this time holding A+B+Start+Select while you turn on your DS.

If that doesn't help, you probably need to use ppflash.

I forgot to mention that the power works. Its just that I get 2 black screens.

Sorry for the double post but ive come to the conclusion that my only way to go is ppflash. But it doenst have the dll files and the instructions are very limited. Can anyone help me out with this.

There are enough instructions around. And every FlashME tutorial says DON'T FREAK OUT and TURN YOUR DS OFF.

Ya i know but I wasnt reading one at the time when i was doing it. I had read it a million times and was sure I knew how to do it but, idk. Well Im sending my ds to cheapmod.net and their going to fix it and upgrade another one of my ds's for me. So an admin or mod can close this post now.
