DS Flash Equipment > why can my DS see my flash card(XGflash)?

#84728 - jippie - Wed May 24, 2006 12:39 pm

I have a XGflash card, and for some reason the DS doesn't see it?
It work fine in my SP & GBA, but the DS doesn't see a thing?

First I tried pogo shell with loads of homebrew nothing.
Then I just put 1 rom and still nothing?

Do I need to do something special when flashing if I want it to work on my DS?

regards,

jippie

Do you have a passthrough device such as a PassMe or NoPass?

If so, you may have to remove the passthrough device if you want to use software designed to run in in GBA mode.

I have an EZ-Flash that does the same thing, it works fine in any GBA, but in any ds "no gba cart found".. It makes good contact on the pins.. etc.. guess there's some sort of timing issue..
