Homebrews compatibility could be better, i agree.
No kidding.
I love my EZ-Flash Vi. It's a fabulous card. That's the one thing that keeps it from being perfect.

I didn't read all of the impression, but I don't see why you would want this.
It doesn't do anything different than any other DSi flashcart. I would just stick to the Acekard2i or DSTWO if you want the CPU. |

Names like "G6", "M3" and AceKard sound cool and simple instead of the worned out "i" placed in almost every word [ex: DSi, iplayer, ihome, iCook etc.] Also, if you say it out loud, it kinda sounds like a contradiction... |

QUOTE(PharaohsVizier @ Aug 28 2010, 10:52 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The EZ Flash Vi is one of those hidden gems. It is a great cart to use, and very competitive with the AceKard 2i. Being similar in price, having a menu that is similar in speed, and has a few features on top, there's a good reason to buy the iSmart and the EZ Flash Vi over the AceKard 2i. Depending on your preference you can go either way and do no wrong. I would like to respectfully disagree with you. The iSmart: - Has an in-game menu providing real time save/guide that freezes continuously. Offering the feature is one thing, having it work is another. There is no particular game or set of circumstances causing it to happen, but it happens so often and on so many games that the features may as well be useless. - The homebrew compatibility is awful. If you just want to pirate vanilla DS games, the cart is fine. If you want to do anything else that a flashcart is expected to offer, you're mostly out of luck. - The Acekard menu is still more customizable to user preference, especially in ways like how the games can be displayed. ..and that's just off the top of my head after putting it through the paces the past few days. If the EZVi is similar, it is most certainly not a hidden gem, nor even comparable to the Acekard 2i. The iSmart is being branded as an AK2i killer -- it's so far from that, that the claim is just funny. |

iSmart kernel runs on my EZV (both old non + or i version and EZ5i w/ latest firmware)... Put ez5sys.bin or ez5isys.bin if you're using an EZVi w/ latest firmware on the root of your SD and rename the system directory for the iSmart to ez5shell and blam, I now own an iSmart too!
Edit: Wish I had an iSmart to test if it can run the EZV kernels. Edited by KidIce, 29 August 2010 - 06:06 PM. |

Edit: Wish I had an iSmart to test if it can run the EZV kernels. Well, this is quite normal. The kernel IS the file ez5isys.bin or ez5sys.bin. It's the main file. When you start an ez5 or ez5i it's the first file loaded. What you do is use the ez5 or ez5i main file to run the iSmart kernel. Are you able to see the iSmart menu with your trick ?  I doubt you can.
