    Hardware Thoughts on the Vita

    In the short term, the Vita can be a seductive device: It pulls you into its imposed UI overlay more than any other impure Android device I've seen (HTC and Samsung smartphones, Kindles, etc.). Normally, I'd prefer straight Android, but Sony makes its version preferable in some ways for the...

    Hacking Acekards AK2.1 "compact edition"

    According to Acekard, the box and 2.1 update are synonymous. The change in packaging confirms you've received the newer card: http://www.acekard.com/news.php "New package of acekard2.1. Here is the pictures of new package of acekard2.1. This time we use a paper box and add 'ver 2.1' on the...

    ROM Hack Korg DS-10 Hacking.

    I've been a studio keyboardist and arranger since I was a teenager. I have a Bachelor of Music in Composition and also studied at the New England Conservatory, but I don't get to verbalize what I've learned very often. That's why it's a pleasure to log onto gbatemp, one of my favorite game...

    Hacking A-DATA 4GB SDHC w/AceKard OS unrecognized by CPU, twitchy on DS Lite

    Update for Minox_IX: The MobileLite 9-in-1 arrived a few days ago and I've been using it continuously since then. Not once has the A-Data disconnected unexpectedly, nor has my computer had any trouble recognizing it. This is the most reliable the A-Data has ever been. If I'm lucky, the...

    Hacking A-DATA 4GB SDHC w/AceKard OS unrecognized by CPU, twitchy on DS Lite

    Thanks for that, Minox_IX -- you've just confirmed my decision. I'll order the 9-in-1 and tell you how it goes. Layzieyez: I agree with you -- I'd rather not know how many problems that person has created by doing everything backwards. I originally posted a joke about it but edited it out...

    Hacking A-DATA 4GB SDHC w/AceKard OS unrecognized by CPU, twitchy on DS Lite

    Update: Because I have no intention of buying an R4 just for the USB reader, I'm vacillating between the Sandisk MicroMate and Kingston 9-in-1. I've read conflicting reports about the Sandisk, and Minox_IX hasn't yet specified what was used with the Kingston. Whenever I finally pick up a...

    Hacking A-DATA 4GB SDHC w/AceKard OS unrecognized by CPU, twitchy on DS Lite

    Thanks tons for that very specific recommendation. It's the best so far (provided you've actually used it with a Mac and A-DATA SDHC). I've also read reports of the Mac-cordoned using this reader and the A-DATA: http://www.sandisk.com/Products/Item(2018)...e_for_SDHC.aspx I'd only heard one...

    Hacking A-DATA 4GB SDHC w/AceKard OS unrecognized by CPU, twitchy on DS Lite

    By "issues," I'd guess you meant crashing on the DS, not a failure on the part of your Mac(s) to recognize the SDHC. If you're inclined, please describe the issues you've experienced.

    Hacking A-DATA 4GB SDHC w/AceKard OS unrecognized by CPU, twitchy on DS Lite

    Stormcontrol: I think it has to do with the fact we're using Mac laptops and very fast (and therefore not standard) MicroSDHCs. PCs are made to work no matter how idiosyncratic the user's snap-to-grid construction, whereas Macs are teeth-gnashingly finicky l'il bastards. Someone who owns a...

    Hacking A-DATA 4GB SDHC w/AceKard OS unrecognized by CPU, twitchy on DS Lite

    1. The problem seems not to be the MicroSDHC itself but the included USB reader. 2. The adapter that ships with the MicroSDHC is not a USB reader and can't be used with my laptop.

    Hacking A-DATA 4GB SDHC w/AceKard OS unrecognized by CPU, twitchy on DS Lite

    I'll have to try that out later on. For now, I want to confirm that the reader change results in increased stability and reliability.

    Hacking A-DATA 4GB SDHC w/AceKard OS unrecognized by CPU, twitchy on DS Lite

    Thanks for that. Yours is exactly the kind of response I was hoping to get. I haven't had to reformat my card as of yet, but if I do, I'll try your method on my PC at work. And, yes, I do have a backup of my Micro SDHC. Question: Before your A-DATA stopped working, did it behave like mine...

    Hacking A-DATA 4GB SDHC w/AceKard OS unrecognized by CPU, twitchy on DS Lite

    Sounds good -- unless, of course, someone who's experienced the same problem knows about some other variable. gizmo_gal: Thanks for the sympathetic words. The consensus seems to be that I should get any faceless USB reader as long as it isn't the AceKard I've been using. The reason I...

    Hacking A-DATA 4GB SDHC w/AceKard OS unrecognized by CPU, twitchy on DS Lite

    Not at all! Let me make things clearer: 1. Card is formatted and works correctly. 2. Through a mistake of my own, skin folder within a subfolder is loaded and selected, and crashes system whenever any OS function is selected. 3. At the same time, the card becomes completely inaccessible to...

    Hacking A-DATA 4GB SDHC w/AceKard OS unrecognized by CPU, twitchy on DS Lite

    I absolutely love the A-DATA 4GB Micro SDHC Class 6. It has worked flawlessly and swiftly until now. Recently, I loaded skins onto it but forgot to delete a second folder layer in one case, which left the skin folder an extra layer in. The other skins worked fine; when I selected this one...
