DS Flash Equipment > Installing FlashmeV5 with Passme2

#64123 - melw - Mon Dec 19, 2005 6:22 pm

Got a new DS model in a need of firmware. However when trying to update, all I get is white screens after the health warnings. The method I've been using:

- X-ROM 512Mb cart with X-ROM Flasher 1.0 by Costello -> upload to rom using the copy savegames from PC to XROM function with Pepsiman's passme2flashme.gba
- Passme2 with a Castlevania US game card

X-ROM can be a pain in the ass if you don't do everything exactly right.

Use the X-ROM flasher to write your SRAM. It may have someting to do with the way the card handles gamesaves. I couldn't get the passme2flashme to work on mine.

So, has anyone has a success with X-ROM? Wouldn't want to buy another card unless I have to... Even if M3 would be sweet, the price tag is quite high.
